Take a look at Hasan's old mosque
New York Post ^ | November 7, 2009 | STEPHEN SCHWARTZ

What interpretation of Islam influ enced Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan? As often before, the trail leads to the official sect of Saudi Arabia -- known as Wahhabism to most of us of who denounce it.

Confronting the role of radical Islam here is not Islamophobic, but common sense -- and the first response moderate Muslims themselves will have.

Hasan, though born in America, refused to have his picture taken with women -- an attitude distinct to fundamentalist radicalism among Muslims. The Prophet Mohammed cautioned his followers that when they go to live in non-Muslim lands they must accept the laws and customs of their new home. Millions of American Muslims get their picture taken with women, even ones not their wives, and don't worry about it. To refuse such an elementary and even trivial act of courtesy sets Muslims apart -- and that is the aim of radicals.

We've also learned that, before his transfer to Ft. Hood last year, Hasan served as a psychiatrist at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, DC, and regularly attended Friday prayer at the Muslim Community Center in Silver Spring, Md.

The Silver Spring clerics have issued formal statements condemning the carnage at Ft. Hood. But Imam Faizul Khan, long the main prayer leader at the mosque and a friend of Hasan, said he never believed Hasan capable of such an act.

Yet what docrines did Hasan absorb at the mosque? While he was a communicant, it hosted at least four talks by Enver Masud, the founder of The Wisdom Fund, the main Muslim "truther" group in America.

And Khan is a leading board member of the Islamic Society of North America -- the main Wahhabi-lobby group in the United States, established by Saudi Arabia to impose extremism on American Muslims.

Most of the mosques in the United States were built with Saudi money. Many if not most of the prison moslem chaplains are supported by Saudi money.

Congress has to get a grip on this. There has to be a separation between religious belief and terrorist teachings. Why can’t Congress pass a law that says that any group religious or not that discusses or promotes violence shall be considered a terrorist group? That seems simple enough. Why should these mosques, chaplains and schools teach that it is alright to kill nonmuslims?

We should have NEVER developed their oil fields. Although, we probably could have done it safely, as long as we had the guts to throw their religious wackos out of our country.

Maryland "Freak State" PING!
