'Whole Muslim world here'
Washington Times ^ | October 10, 2004 | Jon Ward and S.A. Miller

Posted on 10/10/2004 8:04:38 AM PDT by Ginifer

The Washington metropolitan area has one of the largest and most diverse Muslim communities in the country, with an estimated 300,000 adherents from nearly every Islamic-influenced ethnic group in the world. "You can find the whole Muslim world here in Washington," says Zahid H. Bukhari, director of the American Muslim Studies Program at Georgetown University's Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding. "There's the misconception that all Muslims are Arabs, or that all Arabs are Muslims," says Imam Mohamed Magid, the Sudanese-born executive director of the 900-member All Dulles Area Muslim Society mosque, which is attended predominantly by South Asians from Pakistan and India, and has several Bosnian and Russian members. About 37,500 people of Arab ancestry or ethnicity reside in the metropolitan area, according to statistics from the 2000 U.S. census. But about 64,500 metropolitan residents have ethnic or ancestral ties to India and about 10,500 to Pakistan — two non-Arab countries with sizable Muslim populations.

"You can find the whole Muslim world here in Washington,"

Now there's a comforting thought.

Good reason to move in a westerly direction.

This requires research. Be back later.

And every last one of them bowing down toward an Arab city 5 times a day. We don't exactly need any of them.

"I think Muslims are confused. When you ask them, 'What do you think about terrorism?' they're not thinking about terrorism. They're thinking about, 'Man, the world is trying to crush us,' " he says.

If they thought of themselves as Americans, perhaps their priorities would be clarified.

District of Columbia (Washington, D.C.) is the capital city of the USA. The White House, the Capitol, the Supreme Court, and many other government buildings are located in Washington, D.C. President George Washington chose the site as the future capital of the USA in 1791 (the French architect Pierre Charles L'Enfant designed the city). Washington, D.C. became the nation's capital on June 11,1800 (previously, the country had been governed from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania). The first President to live in Washington D.C. was John Adams; his family moved there in 1800. Postal Abbreviation - DC Area - 68.25 square miles (176.75 square km) [Washington, D.C. is smaller in area than any state in the USA] Population - 572,059 (as of 2000) [Washington, D.C. has more people than Wyoming, the least populous state but fewer people than Vermont, the 49th most populous state]

I realize he said the metropolitan area but even that is stretching it quite a bit.

Just waiting for the day when a car bomb goes off in Washington because of the fact that these people recognize no government authority other than the Koran or any other religion except Islam

That will happen --- just like the destruction of the WTC happened --- when the mullahs say the word, their followers will obey. Just like the mind-numb robots they are who can't clean their own noses except after getting instructions from their iman.

I can't help but wonder if everyone would be better off if the 'whole Muslim world' was in the, well, Muslim world.

This is our home now. ... We are going to be staying here, so we need to go out and share [Islam] with everybody else.

And obviously we're going to have problems with them --- they intend to stay, they are here to take over --- just as the Koran instructs them --- they are not to live among the infidels except for the purpose of conquering them. I don't want to "share" Islam --- it's a disgusting cult --- I want my freedom.

That's the problem --- Islam is an utter failure --- even the Muslims don't want to stay in their Islamic paradises but they're stupid enough to be used as pawns to spread their destruction --- if Islam worked well, so many thousands would not be coming here.

If the whole Muslim world is there in DC, I'd be willing to sacrifice all of the monuments, governmental buildings, historical places...just move the Bush administration out pf towm and the Republicans along with a few Dems like Zell Miller, then level the place.

I am basically with you. The Muslim's are cult worshipers and "robots". We need to limit their intrusiojn into the country or we will be overwhelemed, like Britain has been.

This is worse that an invasion by Mars, or the intrusion of the Borg.

If they'd stop at that, it would be OK.

But, in the crunch, they will gladly die trying to kill you, me and the other
infidel behind the tree...

It cannot be stated more clearly than that.
