Condeming attacks on north america by terrorists. The lead imam has a terrible record of anti-semetism...what do you think is going on here?

[STARWISE]

~~Thoughts ?

"declaring attacks on Canada and the United States as attack on Muslims"

Let's see, should we be pleased that some imams are coming out against terrorism, or merely disgusted that the rationale, as always, must be about condemning "attacks on Muslims" -- as though THAT is the reason that terror attacks in North America are evil?

But if there were few if any Muslims here and they all lived in a remote part of Saskatchewan, then Muslims blowing up our people, planes, and cities just wouldn't be any big deal????????

Maybe this is really a positive overture by the Islamic Community. I have never seen anything like it before and it looks like a positive step.

There is room for Islam i the west if Islam westernizes itself. Perhaps they are doing just that here.

Time will tell.

“what do you think is going on here? “

It’s a lie that they hope we fall for...

[SatinDoll]

“...what do you think is going on here?”

Self preservation. No way do U.S. or Canadian citizens want to live in the Middle East, even Muslim ones, under repressive regimes.

They may want everyone here to be Muslim, but I suspect they do not really want to live in a totalitarian Muslim regime.

>>> Condeming attacks on north america by terrorists. The lead imam has a terrible record of anti-semetism...what do you think is going on here?

Self defense from the fallout

What would you do if you lived among them, and your country was about to attack?

[ZULU]

I think what they are implying is that America and Canada should be protected against attack by Muslims as Muslims are also a part of the community in both countries - which is true.

This looks like a positive overture and should be accepted as such.

TAQIYAH.

(On a grand scale.)

[stboz]

taqiyah

[ZULU]

Makes sense to me. A mouthful of freedom is intoxicating. Once imbibed, one is reluctant to give it up.

[world weary]

WOW ... O.O

I never thought I'd see something like this.

[BlessedBeGod]

I don’t believe it. It’s another diversion.

[ZULU]

????????

[Electric Graffiti]

what do you think is going on here?

Taqiyya or CYA. They know something big is going down.

8 years too late.

This is the same Imam who took my pal Ezra Levant to the human rights commission in Alberta...gotta watch this video..

I would be happy to be corrected if I’m wrong, but I don’t remember such a strongly and directly worded fatwa being issued after 9/11; even though that attack destroyed a mosque and killed innocent Muslims.

[MediaMole]

Preemptive strike so they can say, “We have condemned this type of attack,” after the next big ‘man-made disaster.’
