No they don't.
Long article. For the full text from The Independent click here:Every evening, the hundreds of thousands of young men who build Dubai are bussed from their sites to a vast concrete wasteland an hour out of town, where they are quarantined away. Until a few years ago they were shuttled back and forth on cattle trucks, but the expats complained this was unsightly, so now they are shunted on small metal buses that function like greenhouses in the desert heat. They sweat like sponges being slowly wrung out.
Sonapur is a rubble-strewn patchwork of miles and miles of identical concrete buildings. Some 300,000 men live piled up here, in a place whose name in Hindi means "City of Gold". In the first camp I stop at riven with the smell of sewage and sweat the men huddle around, eager to tell someone, anyone, what is happening to them.

Heck, the Caliphate were a lot more kind and decent to the native Jewish population than the Christian Spanish of the 14~1500s.
Are you trying to insinuate that the US workers would be treated the way workers in Dubai are treated because the employers in Dubai share a similar faith with this American Imam?
For those who want these guys fired, who believe they are obligated to work on the this mosque, here is how construction workers are treated in a one Muslim state:

Simply illustrating the hypocrisy of those who attack these hard hats in NYC but are silent on what is done to construction and other workers in the Arab world.

So they are treated differently. Big deal. just to keep you pleased I am more involved with action against this kind of treatment as opposed to NYC mosque where I am only voicing an opinion.For those who want these guys fired, who believe they are obligated to work on the this mosque, here is how construction workers are treated in a one Muslim state:

So what your saying is that unchristian behaviour was perfectly justifiable because they had been warned? Don't make sense according to my bible.Many Jews picked the losing side in that battle. They were given fair warning for decades before they were expelled that the Christian Crown and the Church were in no mood for a fifth column after centuries of Muslim occupation.
Stop bringing facts into this will you. They are most inconvenient!I wonder if all the people that have claimed that this "Cordoba house" is named after some kind of massacre have actually RESEARCHED the Cordoba Caliphate. If they did they'd learn that, despite being constantly attacked by christian kingdoms, the Caliphate was a center of learning which welcomed all faiths, had one of the largest libraries in the world (with the largest number of books from all three Abrahamic faiths), and allowed Christians and Jews to freely worship.

So some won't built it... there'll be plenty who will.
Not many people can afford to pass up a paying job in this economy.
Well Kate 460 people have signed the petition on there website according to the counter however there is no way to know how many of those people actualy are contruction workers that will have the choice as to whether or not to work on the job.
Also even if we assume that they're all people that are turning down the chance to work I'm sure as long as the money is right there won't be any problem replacing them.
I agree that there are many people willing to build the mosque. The 'hardhats' have a right to voice their opinion, but they do not have a right to not do the job they're paid to do.
I also find it ironic that some of the most vocal supporters of gun ownership in the US because of the 2nd Amendment, are also willing to ignore what the Constitution says on freedom of religion.
