"Muslims warn of 'problems' in shared prayer room
Somali leader says Islam, Christianity incompatible"

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Muslims are demanding a private room to pray at the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport, saying there will be problems if they have to share an existing "quiet room" with people of other religions.
"Where you have Christians and Muslims praying at the same time, it will create a problem," said Fuad Ali, a Somali leader who spoke at a meeting with airport officials, according to the St. Paul Pioneer Press.
The meeting was a followup to an incident Nov. 20 when ticket agents and other passengers noticed six Muslim imams who had attended a conference in the area praying loudly before their flight, and shouting "Allah, Allah" when their flight was called. Officials said then they also asked to be scattered throughout the plane, rather than sitting together as they had been assigned. And some of the imams, although they did not need them, asked for seat-belt extenders."
I have one question here: how is it that these people -- and I am speaking of Muslims here -- have been able to travel all over the world for all these years WITHOUT prayer rooms?
Does anybody have a list of all the airports that have Muslim prayer rooms?
