Queens [NYC] Muslim Group Says It Opposes Violence, and America
The New York Times ^ | June 22, 2005 | Andrea Elliott

Posted on 06/22/2005 6:33:32 AM PDT by aculeus

The young Muslim men, with beards and bullhorns, work the streets of Jackson Heights on the weekends. They surface at parades and protests around the city, loudly declaring America the enemy and advocating for an Islamic state. Several weeks ago, they publicly tore up an American flag as payback for the reported desecration of the Koran at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba. Their own videos of violence against Muslims, one with the title "Muslim Massacres," have recently appeared on Queens Public Television.

Let's see you have two demonstrations going on at the same. One with Muslim demonstrators burn an American flag, the other, an American citizen's demonstration burns a Koran. Which demonstrators will go to jail first.

Thanks for the Ping! They are starting to show their true colors... if/when they reach critical mass, and have managed to claim their special "rights" (protected status) with the help of groups like the ACLU and CAIR, they will drop whats left of the facade and go for all out jihad.

They started moving into the U.S. back in the Clinton era.  Silently.  Now look at how many we have scattered around the United States.

And just within the past 5 years, we are being hit hard about being Christian and Jew, and no prayers in our schools, yet the Muslim's still hold 5 prayer sessions daily.  We are not allowed.

Our Pledge of Allegiance is also in peril.  They want God removed.  Anyone see a pattern of late between the two?  They want to take over America and they are very patient people.

"Critical mass" is what worries me...along with the protectionism from the aclu, not to mention cair...and I should add in our very own media lapdogs.

There is also the Bilal Mosque in Beaverton/Portland , Oregon - home ground to the infamous "Portland Seven", and to Maher "Mike" Hawash, all of whom became more militant AFTER 9/11, and all of who were subsequently convicted on charges relating to their admissions to:

1)contributing to/raising funds for known terrorist organisations

2)plotting against the US government

3)conspiring to take up arms against the US military in Afghanistan

It's well past time to shut these centers of anti-American hatred, padlock the doors, and hold these people to account for the hatred preached and the plots spun in their midst.

I fear it's too late.  They are here.  Most of them are US Citizens, but who they hide and shelter would be hard to confirm.

All big families have black sheep's.  I wonder how many black sheep's the Mosque's are hiding and sheltering until they get "the call?"

They're already here.

And they've been here for a while. So much for the leftie media pooh-poohing the idea of a 5th column... Thought you'd like to read this, cyborg, and ping your peeps, but you probably already know.

Another story about these thugs here: http://nyobserver.com/pages/frontpage1.asp

"On the evening of July 11, 2004, Kristine Withers walked down 37th Avenue, a main drag in Jackson Heights, Queens, and passed what had become a familiar sight: a group of tables set up on the sidewalk by the Islamic Thinkers Society, a local group of militant Islamists. On the tables, copies of the Koran and books espousing the group’s strict religious beliefs shared space with tracts on Zionism, pamphlets on the dangers of homosexuality, and signs bearing messages like "Your Terrorists Are Our Heroes."

Ms. Withers, who identifies herself as a lesbian and a political conservative, was offended by the group’s message. The Islamic Thinkers Society had become a regular feature at local gay-pride parades, where they’ve called for the castration and death of gay men, according to several witnesses who spoke to The Observer. But Ms. Withers said it was as much the anti-American messages as the anti-gay ones that riled her up.

"To me, it’s synonymous with the Nazis recruiting on 42nd Street during World War II," she said of her antagonists.

So, in another installment of the then-yearlong series of hostile exchanges between her and the group, she decided to do something. At one point in the exchange, she told the dozen or so bearded young men who make up the group that the prophet Muhammad was a pedophile. They called her a "Christian bitch," by her account. Then she knocked over a sign and stepped on it. Two young bearded men, members of the group, pulled the sign out from under her, sending her flying to the ground.

both were on Little Green Footballs this morning.

At one time Jackson Heights was considered more upscale than Astoria. Today, Astoria is more upscale than Jackson Heights.
