TORONTO – The surprise announcement by a prominent Muslim leader here that he was an informant who helped authorities arrest 17 Muslims on terrorism charges has raised questions in the Muslim community over the ethics of informing versus a responsibility to stop violence.

Since outing himself as an informant who infiltrated and trained with the suspects, Mubin Shaikh has come under harsh criticism by some Toronto Muslims and sparked a debate about how far citizens should go in aiding police investigations, even as he has been hailed as a hero in the mainstream media.

Muslims believe it is right to lie to infidels.

I shouldn't repeat this. But. My grandad used to say something which I didn't get, at the time. He would be remarking about this group or that, and he said arabs would smile in your face while knifing you in the back.

What are Muslims doing in a Non Muslim country? Why live here? Why don't they move back to an Islamic country where they can practice their 13th century religion?

It is the same effect as the liberals fleeing Taxachusetts and like places. They screw up the places where they live then leave because it is so screwed up and go to a new place and start working on turning that place into a $hithole. Ask people in Charlotte, NC!

It's the same thing with the muzzies coming here and not liking Pop culture. Ironically, the first people to defend them when they do mass murder are the ones who create and promote Pop culture and are more likely to get killed by them because they do not own icky guns.

I read a few interviews in various Canadian papers. I don't trust anything he says.

Shaikh, who was born in Toronto and was a decorated Royal Canadian Army Cadet as a teenager, said he became devoted to Islam about 10 years ago.

He said he supports the jihad in Afghanistan and Iraq, but not attacks on civilians at home.

Plain and simple, he violated the Q'uran by turning over muslims to infidels, regardless of what they were doing or planning. I cannot remember the exact sura that states this.

This is why even "moderate" muslims who may be appalled and opposed to radical Islamofacism (there maybe some out there) are retiscent to turn in these murderous thugs, knowing that they face much grief from all other muslims.

This is a critically important statement that states exactly why there is no such thing as "moderate" Muslims. When one of them informs on other Muslims planning to murder innocent civilians and it "raises questions in the Muslim community over the ethics of informing", this is not only a problem, it is a HUGE problem and goes to the heart of the battle between the morals and ethics of Christians, and those of the Muslim murderers.

We talk a lot about the Muslim silent majority and wonder why they don't do something to quell or at least disown the violence.

Here you go - an answer to our question. The human race need a lot more like him. And he had the guts to say he did it!

Lord, protect his life.

Both muslims and liberals destroy the places where they get in power.

They live there for Allah. Their future generations will rule it.

They are practicing their religion with the establishment of a beachhead colony that will then be used to conquer the infidels.
