This is my line of thinking: If the perpetrators of 9/11 had been blue-eyed, blonde-haired, white, 5'2" women, I would fully expect to be thoroughly searched -- oh wait! I already am! -- every time I went on a plane. I'd expect to be treated with suspicion. I'd expect to be watched and observed in certain situations. It would be mildy uncomfortable, irritating, embarassing perhaps...but if I had nothing to hide, then I'd just suck it up and deal with it.
" a humiliation for the entire Muslim community"
I would say that the entire Muslim community is humiliation personified.
Not all Muslims are terrorists but so far, Timothy McVeigh and the 'Unibomber' excepted all terrorists have been Muslims.
They did this on the plane? Is the plane considered private property?
You'll have to excuse me while I dry my eyes.
I laughed myself to tears.
They could have chosen a flight that did not interfere with their rituals.
Only 3 of 6 imams were standing.
I got it fellas! Lets all shout in Arabic on a crowded airplane! Nothing builds bridges like a prayer session!
Of course they did. Islam exempts travelers from ritual obligations.
I'd love to see what they suggest.
Mohammed Atta said his prayers as well:
'Oh God, Open All Doors for Me'
"In the name of God, the most merciful, the most compassionate. . . . In the name of God, of myself and of my family . . . I pray to you God to forgive me from all my sins, to allow me to glorify you in every possible way."
"Remember the battle of the prophet . . . against the infidels, as he went on building the Islamic state."
In upper right hand corner of Page 3: "The last night."
"Remind yourself that in this night you will face many challenges. But you have to face them and understand it 100 percent."
"Obey God, his messenger, and don't fight among yourself where you become weak, and stand fast, God will stand with those who stood fast."
"You should engage in such things, you should pray, you should fast. You should ask God for guidance, you should ask God for help. . . . Continue to pray throughout this night. Continue to recite the Koran."
"Purify your heart and clean it from all earthly matters. The time of fun and waste has gone. The time of judgment has arrived. Hence we need to utilize those few hours to ask God for forgiveness. You have to be convinced that those few hours that are left you in your life are very few. From there you will begin to live the happy life, the infinite paradise. Be optimistic. The prophet was always optimistic."
"Always remember the verses that you would wish for death before you meet it if you only know what the reward after death will be."
"Everybody hates death, fears death. But only those, the believers who know the life after death and the reward after death, would be the ones who will be seeking death."
"Remember the verse that if God supports you, no one will be able to defeat you."
"Keep a very open mind, keep a very open heart of what you are to face. You will be entering paradise. You will be entering the happiest life, everlasting life. Keep in your mind that if you are plagued with a problem and how to get out of it. A believer is always plagued with problems. . . . You will never enter paradise if you have not had a major problem. But only those who stood fast through it are the ones who will overcome it."
"Check all of your items your bag, your clothes, knives, your will, your IDs, your passport, all your papers. Check your safety before you leave. . . . Make sure that nobody is following you. . . . Make sure that you are clean, your clothes are clean, including your shoes."
"In the morning, try to pray the morning prayer with an open heart. Don't leave but when you have washed for the prayer. Continue to pray."
"When you enter the plane:
"Oh God, open all doors for me. Oh God who answers prayers and answers those who ask you, I am asking you for your help. I am asking you for forgiveness. I am asking you to lighten my way. I am asking you to lift the burden I feel."
"God, I trust in you. God, I lay myself in your hands. I ask with the light of your faith that has lit the whole world and lightened all darkness on this earth, to guide me until you approve of me. And once you do, that's my ultimate goal."
"There is no God but God. There is no God who is the God of the highest throne, there is no God but God, the God of all earth and skies. There is no God but God, I being a sinner. We are of God, and to God we return."
They will use this incident and many others to get the U.S. to accept their ways, no questions asked, and cowtow to the muskies.
Dear American judges....if you help this scum we will remember.....understand?
Its real simple Abu.....You get on a plane and and start praying to Allah and people are not going to be real thrilled. Is that really so hard to understand?????
You just saw an example.
I love that name ... it reveals a Truth about the Religion of Pieces.
For there to be "relations" between America and islam means that America and islam are entirely separate things. They do not see themselves as being American.
Nice of them to admit it.
It is all part of the plan. Make our people afraid to question them using ACLU lawsuits with liberal judges and then strike us hard when we are forced (by our own fifth column) to look the other way.
US Muslims seem long on outrage and short on patriotism. I am waiting for the televised news conference of CAIR condemning Muslim violence. I am not, however, holding my breath.
I saw on another thread that they are excused from such prayers during travel. This smells like a set up. Indeed, I saw too at the little green footballs blog today an Imam praising similar psyops on another flight.
Even moreso, terrorist bombers scent themselves and pray hard right before detonation, raising their hands to save their fingertips. As such, I would have freaked on this plane in a big way....
If it looks like a duck and stands up,as a group, to pray like a duck it must be a duck.
