Spiritual leaders of New York's African-American Muslim communities lashed out Friday at a purported al Qaeda message attacking President-elect Barack Obama and, using racist language, comparing him unfavorably to the late Malcolm X.

Well, you can pick your friends.....

[Deetes]

LOL

[Perdogg]

Have they ever denounced them before?

[Old Sarge]

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight...

[Doogle]

Spiritual leaders of New York's African-American Muslim communities lashed out Friday...

...from the confines of their publicly financed well protected mostly silent racist compounds

[ChetNavVet]

Too easy. but I’ll do it anyway..
I thought you guys, and head to toe covered gals were dancing in the streets. Yea Yea Yea, and LOOOLOOOLOOO.
Shame on you! Typically the “honeymoon” lasts for at least a few months after inaguration, silly islamists, tricks are for prostitututes. OOOOP!

[DB]

Probably not. Killing innocent people is fine as long you don’t insult one of their own...

[ButThreeLeftsDo]

Expect “Rage Boy” to weigh in, shortly.....

“Have they ever denounced them before?”

No. They have not denounced all the countless beheadings and inhumane treatment against women and children. I guess it’s OK with them. But a ‘racial slur’? No, no, no. This is a major criminal offense.

[JustTheTruth]

Are the same limp-wrists that refused to condemn terrorists who kill for their murders, now actually condemning those same killers instead for offending with words the chosen-and-elected-ONE, the modern Secular Socialist Messiah????

Incredible...

[Tzimisce]

So al Queda threatens to kill us and that’s fine.

Al Queda mistreats its women and that’s fine.

Al Queda kills religious minorities around them and that’s fine.

But they call Obama a “house negro” and the fangs come out? Hm...Libs always call black Republicans “house negros” so what’s the difference here?

On Friday, Imam Al-Hajj Talib 'Abdur-Rashid, recalling Malcolm X's legacy, said that he "stood for human rights and the principle of self defense ... international law. He would have rejected, and we who are Muslim African-Americans leaders reject, acts of political extremism."

Pure, concentrated, crystallized nonsense.

[ButThreeLeftsDo]

Yeah, the clock isn’t even running and it’s going to be a real entertaining 4 years......

[ari-freedom]

great, now everyone hates al qaeda. finally.

[mimaw]

If they denounced them before I sure didn’t hear it. Never heard a peep from them in defense of President Bush.

[SuziQ]

Bump for later Sunday reading

[Jeff Chandler]

9-11: no problem.

Insult the “antiBush”: denouncement.

[DieHard the Hunter]

> The imams called the recorded comments from al Qaeda second-in-command Ayman al-Zawahiri “an insult” from people who have “historically been disconnected from the African-American community generally and Muslim African-Americans in particular.”

> “We find it insulting when anyone speaks for our community instead of giving us the dignity and the honor of speaking for ourselves,”

> “As Muslims and as Americans, we will never let terrorist groups or terror leaders falsely claim to represent us or our faith,” the statement said. “We once again repudiate al Qaeda’s actions, rhetoric and world view and re-state our condemnation of all forms of terrorism and religious extremism.”

Ouch! Such stinging rebuke! Those al Qaeda guys will have to put ice on that one!/s

We’ll know these muslim leaders are serious when they stop mincing words and deliver al Qaeda operatives to Justice, rather than stand meekly by and watching others do the dirty work.

[Prole]

Hey Obama!

What would Mohammed do?

[mrsmel]

Jackazzes. They’ve never been so quick to denounce terrorism-you know, from which people actually die. These groups and the media are utterly disgusting.
