    NJ.com (http://bit.ly/1Pg3jvT) managed to turn up a retired on-duty cop from 9/11 who said he personally cleared a small rooftop Muslim celebration at 6 Tonnele Ave., as well as a few local residents who say they witnessed other small pockets of jubilant Muslims on John F. Kennedy Boulevard the morning of the attacks.

    Retired police captain, Peter Gallagher, said of the 20 to 30-person rooftop celebration he cleared, that “Some men were dancing, some held kids on their shoulders. The women were shouting in Arabic and keening in the high-pitched wail of Arabic fashion. They were told to go back to their apartments since a crowd of non-Muslims was gathering on the sidewalk below and we feared for their safety.”

    Tonnele Avenue residents Ron Knight, 56, and Carlos Ferran, 60, said they witnessed Muslims celebrating on John F. Kennedy Blvd.

    “Some of them had their hands in the air. They were happy,” Ferran said.

    Channel 4 news commentator said that as he was watching the buildings come down from the van, they were cheering in the car next to him. You could bet he was told never to mention anything like that on the air again.

    It is a shame that the USA gives so much freedom to these people who only want to see it harmed. So don’t live here and don’t enjoy the freedom and rights you have now, that you would never have if you lived in your homeland. And if your homeland was so wonderful that you want its type of life for here, don’t live here. Is it that simple? Or are these people just haters and attackers, something that is in their culture and in their blood? Even when they live here, they can’t let go of their hatred.

    I guess you are all conveniently forgetting about the 5 Israelis who were also caught celebrating while the buildings were coming down.

    It gives me pleasure to know that you all who live in the metropolitan area, your Trump’s vote will not count. You all might stay in the Beth Hamedrash, or in the Mikvah.
