US Muslims wary of possible retaliatory attacks
NBC News ^ | September 12, 2012

Posted on 09/12/2012 6:35:02 PM PDT by NCjim

U.S. Muslims are seeing a spike in hate calls and are concerned about possible retaliatory attacks on domestic mosques following the fatal attack on the U.S. consulate in Libya and protests at the U.S. Embassy in Cairo.

“We’re starting to get hate calls and we’d already seen a wave of anti-Muslim incidents,” Ibrahim Hooper, spokesman for the Council on Arab-Islamic Relations in Washington, D.C., told NBC News on Wednesday.

“Our first thought is condemning the attacks. Obviously this is something we’re concerned about,” he said. Muslims are feeling insecure, he added.

Maybe it is all those places that serve and sell pork, why would they do that if not to insult Muslims. Or perhaps he was forced to drive by a church or 2 that had a cross. The American people are so insensitive to the peace loving Muslims.

Well, you are absolutely right!

And what about piggy-banks and sex-offender laws? Was their prophet not a pedophile?

Just look at how these American women dress as well! Why, the loins of muslim men must be in constant shameful agony.

Muzzie terrorists attack U.S. embassies and murder an Ameican, and the tribe who controls the media decides that the ragheads are the real victims here. I wonder if their attitudes would be different if some newsrooms were attacked instead of embassies.

We can always stone one of their family members to death to make them feel at home.

Hooper made several claims of attacks/harassment/hate crimes after 9-11. None of those claims panned out to be true.

Hooper will probably be making similar claims soon.

This truly is a case of projection. Back home people would be seeking revenge ~ so there would be incidents.
These people don't understand America. Part of the reason is they continue to adhere to primitive notions of interhuman relationships.

Best they give it up ~

________________________

I'd like to be honest.

As an American, I have standards. I was raised right. Of course retaliation as muslims understand it is out of the question because I AM civilized.

However, my mind brings forth, unwillingly, a thousand ways to humiliate islamics. I can't be the only one.

The koran, crumpled, burned, placed in trash receptacles..childish thoughts. Childish because that is our only outlet.

Fallujah is not glass. Egypt is not glass.

islam must pay, but they have not been forced to pay, yet they should pay.

But I've been raised right. Multiply that by thousands, and we know why islamists are allowed to live in this country.

“Hooper, we are not muslims. We do not wantonly murder people. We don’t abuse people as a way of life. We do not take out our frustrations on innocents. In short we are civilized.”

We were civilized when we exterminated the NAZIS and killed all of those Japanese “warriors” too. Weren’t we?

As long as American Muslims are peacefully practicing their religion, I have no problem with them and they should be afforded the same protection under the law that everyone has.

That being said if they even so much as voice a word of support for the terrorists or advocate terror, they should immediately be deported...

These poor Muslim Americans! So important to our national heritage! So integral to the founding and development of our great country! How could any one of us possibly think of threatening them? Are we lowly traitors?

Put up or shut up, Ibrahim. Name one "anti-Muslim incident". I'm sick of 11 years of being told by so-called moderate muslims in the US that every time a muslim goes nuts, the real concern is us.

just think CAIR....one of the very few counyties that your people can feel secure in...is the United States...if you feel insecure here, get a ticket to Iraq, or Iran, or maybe Pakistan of Afghanistan or the Sudan would give you that “cozy- warmie” feeling

No, unlike the barbarians ibrahim squeals for, the west is civilized. Much to out detriment.

If we were a little more blood thirsty, those cowardly koranimals wouldn’t dare make a move against us for fear of learning a chemistry lesson on what happens when sand is subjected to the equivalent heat of a small star or forty.

It’s a lesson I wish just ONE president would have had the balls to teach the mohammedans.
