We should complain to Deseret News, they did not mention Freerepublic.com

[Alouette]

FRmail me to be added or removed from this Judaic/pro-Israel/Russian Jewry ping list.

Warning! This is a high-volume ping list.

[Dallas59]

It's racism against FR!!

[Mr. Mojo]

I'd like to thank Deseret News for informing more people about the religion of the perp -- the MSM blackout was total.

"Someone needs to start communication," she said. "Maybe we will be able to express who we are. ... We are Americans, we want the best for this country."

she continued: "so the sooner everyone convert to islam and sharia law is imposed, the better"..(sarc/off)

[Cicero]

If LittleGreenFootballs is "ultraconservative," what does that make FR?

What's amusing about this kneejerk piece of political correctness, in which those who notice the killer's religion are "extremists" and various mullahs are trustworthy "experts," is that it is bringing a buried fact to the attention of the readers of the Deseret News: namely, that the perp was a Bosnian Muslim.

They put their spin on it, of course, but they no longer enjoy a monopoly that allows them to completely repress the facts. It's a small step forward.

"Sudden Jihad syndrome!" Spontaneous combustion Jihad syndrome. I noticed in the Times today that the aunt is now blaming whoever sold him the gun. They learn so quickly.

[mvpel]

If you watch the video, and move the slider to just around the middle, just after a cop shouts something like "Police! Open up! Open up!" - you might hear what sounds like "Allah-hu akbar!" shouted a couple of times.

Am I hallucinating?

certain that because Talovic is Muslim that he must be a terrorist.

No, morons. The fact that Talovic entered a mall and terrorized people with a shotgun makes him a terrorist.

The fact that he's Muslim makes him an Islamic terrorist.

This isn't that complicated.

[Thombo2]

"They are so afraid and so isolated...."Well,i for one am all out of sympathy for muslims.

[VeniVidiVici]

The problem is the fact that the kid left no note (that we know of) and absent all the other psyco-teen reasons to shoot up a mall we are left with the modus-operandi of Islamofascism: shooting innocent people.

[justiceseeker93]

Thanks for the post. I'd heard about the shootings in Salt Lake City and figured it would be about the last place in the US that one would expect something like that. You would have to conclude that no place in America is safe from Islamic violence and/or terrorism.

Here's an incomplete list of Sudden Jihad Syndrome terrorists who were all described as acting alone by the cops and/or FBI:

Ali R. Warrayat
An Arizona Home Depot employee jumped out of the car’s path. To drown out the man’s yells, Warrayat reached over to his car radio and blasted Arabic music before crashing through the front doors.

Charles Bishop (Bishra)
A note written by the 15-year-old boy who crashed a Cessna into a Tampa office building indicated he supported Osama bin Laden and that the act was deliberate, authorities say.

Haider Mohammed
Contacted by Palm Springs Police, FBI investigators described Muslim who was arrested after threatening to 'Kill All Jews' as "not a person of interest."

Hesham Mohamed Ali Hadayet
The suspect, Egyptian-born Hesham Mohamed Ali Hadayet, left two people dead and five injured at the El Al airlines ticket counter at Los Angeles International Airport before being fatally shot by a security guard.

John Muhammad
Federal prosecutors filed a criminal complaint, charging alleged Beltway Sniper John Muhammad with 20 felony counts, including extortion and intent to commit murder.

Marc Lepine (Gamal Gharbhi)
For 45 minutes on Dec. 6, 1989 an enraged gunman roamed the corridors of Montreal's École Polytechnique and killed 14 women.

Mohammed Ali Alayed
After apparently undergoing a religious awakening, a Saudi Arabian student in Houston killed his Jewish friend by slashing his throat.

Mohammed Reza Taheri-azar
Just-graduated student named Mohammed Reza Taheri-azar, 22, and an Iranian immigrant, drove a sport utility vehicle into a crowded pedestrian zone at University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill. He struck nine people.

Naveed Afzal Haq
Eyewitnesses told the Seattle News that Mr. Haq announced, "I'm a Muslim American; I'm angry at Israel," and then began shooting. He killed one woman and wounded five others.

Omeed Aziz Popal
Up to 14 hurt in San Francisco hit-and-run spree. Seven are critical. The driver believed to have struck and killed a man in Fremont earlier.

Sulejman Talovic
Police Tuesday identified the gunman accused in Monday night's Trolley Square shooting as Sulejman Talovic, an 18-year-old Bosnian refugee who lived in Salt Lake City.

When you have victims of Sudden Jihad Syndrome piling up all over the country, the reasonable person would conclude -- that's terrorism.

Whether the root cause of these rampages is in the genes of these maniacs or the result of a conspiracy is completely irrelevant.

[LtdGovt]

How can we fight our enemies when the press doesn't mention who they are?

[popdonnelly]

They certainly have the "muslims as victims" story line down pat, don't they? Look, this young man was not a "victim". The people he shot were victims.

[rmlew]

LGF is ultraconservative?
They only deal with foreign affairs!

[Migraine]

Bosnian Muslims are more secular than religious. "Having lived under Soviet Union rules for decades, where religious freedom was not an option, a majority of these people" are not practicing Muslims,

Ahhhhhh... so that explains the mild-mannered ragtime cowboys in Chechen and at Beslan!!! Thanks, Deseret, for 'splainin' that!

What a nimrod!!! Nobody is talking about a "majority of these people", anyway (we have heard that phrase, ad nauseam, haven't we?). Nobody is talking about the ones who "don't"; we're talking about the ones who "do"! Manure-for-brains, that must be the problem.

[Convert from ECUSA]

"They are so afraid, and so isolated."

Pass the Pepto! Boo-effing-hoo! I don't see Jews and Christians engaging in sudden random shootings for "religious reasons" or because the bunion on their big toe happens to be aching a bit more that particular day. Every time some religion of peeves nutcase goes bananas, every CAIR or CAIR-like crybaby boo-hoo-hoos about how "lonely" and "isolated" and "afraid" and "misunderstood" they are! Bah! Cry me a river!

[Nachum]

What, Free Republic is chopped liver? I'm insulted, they didn't cite us once. This hurts our "street cred".

[batter]

Utah Ping!

[reagan_fanatic]

It's always easier to yell 'racism', 'bigotry' or whatever rather than looking at the facts - muslims have a long, bloody history of terrorist attacks very similar this one, and the fact that this guy was a muslim is not something that should be swept under the rug because we don't want to 'offend' anyone.

If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck...
