Cordoba Cathedral and Islam - A Comment

For the past several years I have pointed many times (here in 2010; and here in 2014) to the Cordoba Cathedral as an example of Islamic hypocrisy vis a vis the Temple Mount.

What they demand for themselves in Spain, they refuse Jews in Jerusalem.

And now Gatestone Institute published this


by Giulio Meotti. He doesn't seem to mention my posts on the subject.

Here is from the summary:

In Islamic symbolism, Córdoba is the lost Caliphate...If these Islamists, supported by the militant secularists, will be able to bring Allah back inside the Cathedral of Córdoba, a tsunami of Islamic supremacism will submerge Europe's decaying Christianity. There are thousands of empty churches just waiting to be filled by the voices of muezzins...

The Western attempt to free Jerusalem in the Middle Ages has been condemned as Christian imperialism, while the Muslim campaigns to colonize and Islamize the Byzantine Empire, North Africa, the Balkans, Egypt, the Middle East and most of Spain, to name but a few, are celebrated as a season of enlightenment.

Shades of 1984... Black is white, up is down, right is wrong and truth is fake...

What's the big deal?

No to any attempts to supplant Islam,

Yes to any efforts of Islam to supplant other religions.

Completely consistent, rational and justified by their worldview.
