Egyptian born, Hisham Elzanaty and Sharif El-Gamal purchased the old Burlington Coat Factory building at 45-47 Park place. The cost? Four-point-eight million dollars; cash. El-Gamal paid an additional seven-hundred thousand to take over the lease from the utility company.
Now, it is learned, through diligent investigative journalism, that Elzanty gave over six-thousand dollars to the Holy Land Foundation, a known terrorist group.
This ties the people associated with wanting and helping to construct this Mosque to known terrorist and subsequently the real reason for the Mosque’s construction on that site.
