PLAINSBORO, N.J. —

SNIPPET: “Advisers to the project have scheduled a June vote to decide whether the proposed Zaytuna College can open in the fall of next year, a major step toward developing the faith in America.

Imam Zaid Shakir and Sheik Hamza Yusuf of California...”

SNIPPET: “Shakir, an African-American Air Force veteran, and Yusuf, a native of Washington state, are converts who spent years studying with Islamic scholars in North Africa and the Mideast. They speak flawless Arabic...”

ARTICLE SNIPPET from the link in post no. 4:

"In earlier years, Shakir and Yusuf had made some anti-American statements, but that rhetoric is not part of their teaching."

SNIPPET from the link in post no. 4:

"But Zaytuna considers the state of Muslim scholarship in the West so "anemic" that a crisis is looming. The Muslim community in North America and Europe, now in the millions, is growing, and has few properly trained leaders to guide them.

"Who will talk for the religion?" Shakir asked. "We have to train a generation."

Shakir, an African-American Air Force veteran, and Yusuf, a native of Washington state, are converts who spent years studying with Islamic scholars in North Africa and the Mideast.

Hey Rickey "Imam Said Shakir" Mitchell! A few questions please.
- Exactly where is this African-American Air Force headquartered?
- Didn't all your pilots kill themselves on 9/11?
- And what's the significance of wearing that potato chip basket on your head?
