Muslim residents hand out "Islam Explained" to fairgoers; want to show people they are "not terrorists."
Despite the smells of fried dough and roasted meat wafting from the Minnesota State Fair, Salim and Zuleyha Ozonder were focused on the people who were leaving, not the food or festivities beckoning from across the street.
Each time a new wave of people exited, the young Minneapolis residents who hadn't eaten all day tried to press into their hands a small, glossy card that read "Islam Explained" on one side. On the other, it had about 180 words of background on a religion whose adherents fear is being misunderstood by too many Americans as violent and depraved.
"You just want people to take the card, spend a minute reading it and say, 'Oh. They're not terrorists,'" said 27-year-old Zuleyha. She and her husband, like other Muslims, were fasting during daylight hours for the Islamic holy month of Ramadan.

There is an article is the Wall Street Journal today that talks about Iran's Muslim clerics banning listening to all music or be subject to physical torture. The article mentions stoning and also pouring molten lead in the ears.
What a screwed up “religion”.

“The article mentions stoning and also pouring molten lead in the ears.”
That’s too funny!
How nice of them to solve ear infections with molten lead!
Ears ringing? Hit them with a stone!
WT@?!
My doctors FIRED!
Wow! Did they get that medical information from the Library of Alexandria before those fire-loving muzzies burned it down?
You know, because all of that information dis-proved islamic “scripture” and they can’t have that.
I’m glad something survived that arson attack by those pesky Jews!

“Sakineh Mohammadi-Ashtiani, an Iranian woman sentenced to death by stoning for adultery, has also been sentenced to 99 lashes for a photo published of her without a headscarf, according to her son.”

I would ask them in a case like this, do they stone the woman first and then lash the dead body? Or go they lash her first and then stone the dead body? Or do the they lash and stone her at the same time? I am not sure about these Islamic traditions. I am sure they could clarify.

Well, for clarification, I’d suggest asking a local iman about the procedures that must be followed, just in case we decide to voluntarily slip back 1400 years into the abyss of knowledge.
Then, when he scribbles a fatwa on his etch-o-sketch that’s updated & sync’d daily in accordance with mecca time, we will all be in line with the omni-specific knowledge to pass down(AND I MEAN DOWN) to our kids, which will be trained in the most rigid form of tolerance, the wahhabi sect of islam.
Naturally, the in-laws will be shiites. That way, when they come over, we can blow them up!! It’s all ok, don’t be concerned, they do it everyday!
See, there are benefits to islamic culture!!

Right-—Christians are not haters... Christians love their enemies when they repent. But because Christians have been genocided so many times by these zombies we need to be vigilant and we need to be united...and yes, we need to know who is sponsoring and supporting their viciousness.

Subject: Prison Ministry - The Muslim Question
I have never seen this presented so clearly. This is excellent.
This is a true story and the author, Rick Mathes, is a well-known leader in prison ministry.
The Muslim religion is the fastest growing religion per capita in the United States , especially in the minority races!!!
"Last month I attended my annual training session that's required for maintaining my state prison security clearance.
During the training session there was a presentation by three speakers representing the Roman Catholic, Protestant and Muslim faiths, who explained each of their beliefs.
I was particularly interested in what the Islamic Imam had to say. The Imam gave a great presentation of the basics of Islam, complete with a video.
After the presentations, time was provided for questions and answers...
When it was my turn, I directed my question to the Imam and asked:
'Please, correct me if I'm wrong, but I understand that most Imams and clerics of Islam have declared a holy jihad [Holy war] against the infidels of the world and, that by killing an infidel, (which is a command to all Muslims) they are assured of a place in heaven. If that's the case, can you give me the definition of an infidel?'
There was no disagreement with my statements and, without hesitation, the replied, 'Non-believers!'
I responded, 'So, let me make sure I have this straight. All followers of Allah have been commanded to kill everyone who is not of your faith so they can have a place in h eaven Is that correct?'
The expression on his face changed from one of authority and command to that of a little boy who had just been caught with his hand in the cookie jar.'
He sheepishly replied, 'Yes.'
I then stated, 'Well, sir, I have a real problem trying to imagine Pope John Paul commanding all Catholics to kill those of your faith or Dr. Stanley ordering all Protestants to do the same in order to guarantee them a place in heaven!'
The Imam was speechless!
I continued, 'I also have a problem with being your friend when you and your brother clerics are telling your followers to kill me! Let me ask you a question:
Would you rather have your Allah, who tells you to kill me in order for you to go to heaven, or my Jesus who tells me to love you because I am going to heaven and He wants you to be there with me?'
You could have heard a pin drop as the Imam hung his head in shame. Needless to say, the organizers and/or promoters of the Diversification' training seminar were not happy with Rick's way of dealing with the Islamic Imam , and exposing the truth about the Muslims' beliefs.
In twenty years there will be enough Muslim voters in the U.S. to elect the President!

Here is a mosque inside the pentagon. Remember how shameful it was that they did not allow Graham to pray INSIDE the Pentagon so
Graham prayed alone, OUTSIDE of the Pentagon. Is it because precisely here is a mosque INSIDE the pentagon?
IS THAT TOLERANCE??? Reverse tolerance...

Big sigh. Equality does not mean extending rights and courtesy while taking them away from others as some sort of punishment.
(and please excuse my typo, thanks)

Well, it's not even equality - the fact is: terrorism WORKS. We are now so scared of these people that we give them much more rights that we ever had. Just heard that Israel may give away part of Jerusalem...WHAT???
We never rebuilt the WTC -
Yes terrorism IS working.
More they kill us, more we give them in return. We don't even notice this side of the story.

Three young women are also suing Disneyland over wearing their head scarves. Disney attempted to provide several types of head coverings that were in keeping with the attraction where each worked. They want to wear their own head coverings, of course. It’s not about covering their heads for modesty. It’s about ramming Islam down our throats.
Can you imaging a headscarf in the Golden Horseshoe Review (the old West stage show)? This is ridiculous!
Coming to an amusement park near you...

Lara “Bless her Soul” Ingraham destroyed those shamuta’s muzzie attorney on air. She was all “decked”(not pun intended) out in her BS muzzie garb too.
It made that muzzie attorney look as if she was going through ANOTHER genital mutilation at the hands of her iman.
Classic Kafir kicking muzzie a$$ segment.
