American Muslims Accept Pope’s Apology

United Muslims of America Interfaith Alliance (UMAIA)

It is time to move on. We take Pope Benedict’s apology seriously and we urge American Muslims to take leadership positions to condemn religiously motivated violence and work more deligently for building inter-religious cultures of peace and healing.

We deeply regret the violence and the loss of life that has occured. This is not acceptable.

We also accept our inability to control the actions of 1.3 billion Muslims spread all over the world.

Iftekhar Hai President,

UMA Interfaith Alliance, CA.

United Muslims of America Interfaith Alliance looks at America as one nation, creating one family through interfaith understanding. We promote racial and religious harmony through our religious institutions, projecting an image of America as world leader who stands up for the human rights for all communities.

Dialogue is an opportunity for growth and change, to ripen and deepen our spirituality. Dialogue can help open our minds and hearts. We encourage compassionate listening. We encourage tolerance and celebrate diversity as one world community upholding the law of the land and creating one human family.

United Muslims of America interfaith alliance promotes understanding and cooperation among world religions through interfaith dialogue, thereby creating racial and religious harmony and encouraging faith based communities to get involved locally, nationally and globally for the good of all people and help bring healing and spiritual reconstruction.

"we urge American Muslims to take leadership positions to condemn religiously motivated violence"

I keep close track, and I think this is about the fifth time since 9/11 that I've seen a pretty unequivocal condemnation of terror by Muslims.

Good for them.

Now, perhaps the other 1,999,999,995 Muslims can shift themselves to disavow terror.

You're right.

This five-footed unicorn they call the 'moderate muzlim voice' is as much a part of the problem (in a supporting / enabling role) as the head-hacking jihadists themselves.

To know izlam is to see evil in the eye.

You have misspelled "American Muslims". I believe the correct spelling is "sleeper cells."

Exactly! Sitting idly by, saying and doing nothing about constant muslim violence is the same as quiet acceptance.

NOTE TO ALL SANDMAGGOTS (in America and otherwise) The Pope did not appologize........nor should he, nor should the rest of the civilized world.

Many thanks for the great post, GOPer.

And thanks to you, Diogenesis, for the stunning photo essay. One gripping picture is worth a thousand angry rememberings.

"2002 Washington D.C. sniper"

1st time I've ever seen your list. Great work.
I hadn't thought about the DC sniper in all this before now.
How easy it is to forget all these connections is bone chilling.

"American Muslims Accept Pope’s Apology."

Is this because there are too few of them to "act out" as lunatic Islamics?

Or - has their life in America convinced them that we are not Satan on earth?

Frankly -- I suspect it is the former, they have not yet reached the numbers to "embolden" them...

Hell - they rarely speak out against the lunacy or murderous behavior of their co-religionists...

No "death decrees" have originated from the U.S. Muslims against the men they "claim" have hijacked their religion..

Semper Fi

And, P.S., keep this little note just between us, okay? Because these guys don't like it when we talk...

What is their position on Muslim violence, which is the issue and question? Evidently they shrug their shoulders and ignore it,...

One word, accompanied by said shrug, "Inshallah!"
