Terror Suspects — What Went Wrong? [Fox's Father Jonathan]
Fox News ^ | August 14, 2006 | Father Jonathan

As we made our trek to the small Muslim community of Walthomstow in East London, I hoped we could do something worthwhile. I wasn’t looking for something material — a big interview to break a story. I was hoping to get into the heart of the Muslim community, to find out what went wrong, to hear from the mouths of the imams themselves, and perhaps bridge some communication gaps. Would they unequivocally denounce terrorism? Would they say bad foreign policy justifies the killing of the innocent? It would be a talk from one religious person to another — a unique look at the inside workings of a problem that is not going away.

My hat goes off to the leaders of the mosque. From the beginning, I told them clearly that I was working with an American television network, and later I did tell them that I was with FOX News, an American sister network of Sky News in England. We talked at length. They were cordial, forthcoming, and all this as they let the camera roll. Other news media jumped in and tried to cause a stink, but that’s how it is in the news world. Some people are willing to break up something very good, just to get a story.

I’ve got to fly, but I’ll update you about everything that went on just as soon as I can. It was fascinating, informative, and very positive.

I’ve posted a good number of photos here on the blog. Take a look and tell me what you think.

God bless, Father Jonathan

Good for the Good Father. Walking into the lions den- fair, balanced, and unafraid.

This priest should know how effective the Islamo-terrorists are at using the media. He's just made himself a tool.

CAIR's spokesman is on O'Reilly. He doesn't want the President or anyone else using the term, Islamofascist.

This good priest might meet the Muslims in the middle. He might die, but he might have the answer to this monstrous problem.

More like the way some of them came across. The most memorable part was:

"We don't follow the Christian Ideology of turn the other cheek."

The Imam had to shut them up if you know what I mean

But check out the video

When I saw it on Fox, there was even more defiant crowd comments as I recall, especially from the old guy with the white beard.

The sheer numbers are against us on that concept. It's more likely that we will take the sword out of their hands when we no longer need Saudi oil.

The sheer numbers were against us in Japan too. Standing on ground zero at Hiroshima on Aug 2nd, 1967 gave me a real good perspective of what America is capable of. A few hundred million of them incinerated might make the rest of them learn to behave or to convert.
