Contact New York Mayor Bloomberg…
Contact New York Mayor Bloomberg…
…Urge him to reverse course on the “Ground Zero Mosque”
And please sign our petition if you haven’t yet done so!
by Brigitte Gabriel
Dear Morris,
As we near the end of our petition drive opposing the “ground zero mosque” (we now have over 46,000 names!), some ACT! for America chapter leaders and members have asked us what we plan to do next.
Thus far, Mayor Michael Bloomberg and nearly all of the members of the Community Board 1 have turned a deaf ear to New Yorkers and families of 9/11 victims.
With our petition, we will get the Mayor’s attention.
But there is more we can do to make our petition even more effective.
NOW, from all across America, we need thousands of phone calls raining down on his office, and thousands of emails pouring into his inbox!
We need to send a clear message:
“Dear Mayor Bloomberg,
We appeal to you, on behalf of the thousands of family members of victims of 9/11, to reverse your position and urge Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf to locate his mosque somewhere other than at “Ground Zero.”
Imam Rauf’s writings and public statements make it clear that he believes in the same sharia law that motivated the 9/11 jihadists. This we find unacceptable.
9/11 was an attack against ALL Americans not just New York City. Your decision represents and affects us ALL.
Should you choose not to reverse your position regarding this mosque, please understand that we will take this personally and we will take our tourist and business dollars elsewhere!
We cannot in good conscience support a city whose leadership has so little respect for 3,000 dead Americans that it would permit a mega “shrine” at ground zero to the same sharia ideology their killers used to justify their reprehensible actions!
Mayor Bloomberg, we appeal to you to act FOR America and not AGAINST her. Thank you for your consideration.”
PLEASE TAKE ACTION!
I urge you today to place a phone call and/or send an email to Mayor Bloomberg’s office. Using a message similar to the one above, let him know, respectfully but unequivocally, that you are joining thousands of other Americans who will not spend their dollars in New York City.
If you live in New York City, you can call the mayor’s office at 311.
Outside of New York City, call 212-NEW-YORK.
To Fax a message, dial 212-788-8123 end_of_the_skype_highlighting.
To send an email: http://www.nyc.gov/html/mail/html/mayor.html
PLEASE FORWARD THIS EMAIL TO OTHERS SO THAT THEY, TOO, CAN JOIN US IN THIS ACT OF PROTEST!
We have done this successfully in the past. When Tyson Foods of Tennessee approved a union contract that dropped Labor Day as a paid holiday and replaced it with a Muslim holiday, thousands of ACT! for America members called Tyson Foods.
Tyson responded to our telephone campaign and reversed course, restoring Labor Day as a paid holiday. TOGETHER WE CAN DO IT AGAIN!!!
Always devoted and eternally thankful,
Brigitte Gabriel
