"Allah gives permission in the Quran for the followers of Allah to attack those who have raged war against them, with the expectation of eternal paradise in case of martyrdom and/or living one's life in obedience of all of Allah's commandments found throughout the Quran's 114 chapters," wrote Taheri-azar in a two-page letter sent to a television reporter and anchor at WTVD-TV, an ABC affiliate in Durham.
Last month, Naveed Afzal Haq of Pasco, Wash., broke through security at the Jewish Federation Center in Seattle and announced to staff members: "I'm a Muslim American; I'm angry at Israel." The 30-year-old immediately began shooting randomly with a semiautomatic 9-mm handgun at the 18 employees and visitors in the offices.
In January 2004, after apparently undergoing a religious awakening, a Saudi Arabian student in Houston killed his Jewish friend by slashing his throat. Mohammed Ali Alayed, 23, pleaded guilty to the Aug. 6 attack on Ariel Sellouk, also 23, who almost was decapitated with a knife. Houston police said no clear motive had been established, but Alayed went to a local mosque after the slaying."
These are all stories that are being buried by the media. Yes, Fox is guilty as well.
Instead we hear about Karr.
Another incredulous muslim family.
I had not heard about the Jan. 2004 incident.

"recently returned from Afghanistan where he married an Afghan woman in an arrangement by his family."
I'm telling you, arranged marriages do not work. Ask Clinton.
Didn't see this story on the KTVU-TV website.
Freshly returned from afghanistan Muslim runs down 14 people and calls himself a terrorist, but police think he did it because of his wife.
Yeah that's top-notch police work there. I see how they connected THOSE dots...
Standard Operating Procedure.
Immediately proclaim 'No terrorism here folks, move along.'
The one where the motives were hushed up?
And the difference between this and a "hate crime" is ....?
it should be obvious to anyone who has followed news the last year or so that the US govt will not admit a terrorist motive to ANYTHING unless it is simply forced to, as in the 9/11/01 plane hijackings. any number of other events, including plane crashes, the OU bombing, and various individual rampages against jewish targets by muslims, are never considered terrorist-related.
I bet if there had been only 1 plane hijacked that day, and it hit the wtc, we would have been subjected to at least an effort to call it a navigational error.
Please FReepmail me if you want on or off my ‘miscellaneous’ ping list.
without the internet we would never have known that happened at all (the OU bombing). It also illustrated the degree to which the media is willing to help fedgov manage/suppress breaking news on such events. I think this lesson should be applied retroactively, to the AA flight that crashed in queens as well as TWA 800.

actually since the tower collapsed I doubt they could have pulled this off, it is simply too big a story, but if it had only been damaged, I don't doubt it would have been considered.

The news appeals to the lowest common denominator. Hence the constant soap operas in the "news."
I know and work with a number of Muslims who are good people dedicated to helping their fellow man. I think you'd be doing yourself an injustice if you judged them all by the actions of a minority.
Is that a sock in Rob Reiner's mouth?
