Seattle Suspect Allegedly Ambushed Girl

By CURT WOODWARD

Associated Press Writer

SEATTLE (AP) -- The man suspected in a fatal shooting rampage hid behind a potted plant in a Jewish charity's foyer and forced his way through a security door by holding a gun to a 13-year-old girl's head, authorities said Saturday.

Once inside, police say, Naveed Afzal Haq opened fire with two semiautomatic pistols. One woman, Pam Waechter, 58, of Seattle was killed at the scene. Five more women were wounded.

Haq, 30, was ordered held on $50 million bail Saturday pending formal charges of murder and attempted murder.

Haq, a Muslim, told authorities he was angered by the war in Iraq and U.S. military cooperation with Israel.

"He pointedly blamed Jewish people for all of these problems," Seattle Police Chief Gil Kerlikowske said at a news conference Saturday.

According to a statement of probable cause, Haq told a 911 dispatcher: "These are Jews and I'm tired of getting pushed around and our people getting pushed around by the situation in the Middle East."

Muhammad Ullah, a close family friend and a senior member of a mosque founded in part by Haq's father, described Haq as a quiet loner with few friends.

In a statement, the Islamic Center of the Tri-Cities offered condolences to the shooting victims and said "we disassociate this act from our Islamic teachings and beliefs."

Well, you can try but I don't think many will buy it.

I don't think the Islamic Center of the Tri-Cities is in a position to "disassociate" this act from its Islamic teachings and beliefs.

I believe Mr. Haq has already made the association.

If that's true, then you must not be muslims.

The READ moHAMetan is the one spewing the hatred and killing the Jews.

After all, that's what your book written by the delusional peadophilic brigand says.

Since we know this terrorist is muslim, this info is basically redundant

I wonder if this quiet loner happened to be part of the Zoroastrain religion? Or maybe he was an Animist? Perhaps he was a Hindu? Irish Catholic? Jewish? Voodoo practitioner?

All of those faiths can be found on my block at work (midtown manhattan). All have figured out how to live and let live.

I really believe that all muslims are not terrorists. But all terrorists are muslims. Worldwide. Here, Israel, Spain, the UK, Indonesia, Russia, Somalia to name a few. They solve their problems with guns and suicide belts. It is their religion and their role models that have told them this is an appropriate response to perceived slights.

It bothers me that they are the only religous group that seems to do so but the MSM consistently disregard that point.

"....'m tired of getting pushed around and our people getting pushed around by the situation in the Middle East."

Ah yes, the old "humiliation" excuse again. ....and like most of his fellow Mohammedans, rather than looking in the mirror and accepting responsibility for his culture's complete and utter failure he takes the easy way out and blames that failure on Jews, Israel, and the U.S.

Yeah, Israel is laying siege to the entire ~3,500,000 square miles of northern Africa/Middle East/Central/South Asia where Islam is the dominant religion and political force. -- all from their 8,000 sq miles or so.

Funny nobody seems to mention there was an anti-Israel protest right outside the Center at the time of the shootings.

Where is the outcry for the feds to rush and charge Haq with a "hate crime"?? I forgot, hate crimes defendants can only be white, Christian and male. Sorry, my bad.

Message to the Islamic Center:

When you stop blaming the Jews for everything,

When you give thanks to the U.S. government for allowing you to practice your religion and express your beliefs,

When you stop making excuses for Islamic terrorists,

When you give thanks to the U.S. military for freeing YOUR people in Iraq and Afghanistan from Saddam and the Taliban,

Then we will accept your condolences as sincere.
