(Reuters) - Two men described as leaders of a Philadelphia mosque were accused of trying to cut off the hand of a suspected thief, whose wrist was sliced so deeply it required hospital treatment, police said on Friday.
The 46-year-old victim said two officials in the mosque accused him of stealing jars of money from the house of worship after morning prayers on Monday.

House of “worship” Phhht!
Was this mosque #12? That was the one targeted for the training of excons to become imams for corrections .
This raises the question: should all the various politicians and bureaucrats who steal from the taxpayers have their hands “cut off”? Just askin’.

When there’s enough of the bearded savages, they WILL carry out their subhuman sharia law.
Did he steal the money as charged? Maybe the cops should have let them finish the job before arresting them.

Good to know.
Normally, I avoid replying to those idiots who have signed up and contribute nothing except to do their part in lowering the median IQ of this place. Seriously, you should've been here back in 2004. It was a whole different crowd. The bar was set much higher.
In your case, I'll make an exception.
Am I a Muslim? I like booze and pork too much for their religion and I've never been a praying fellow, much less five times a day so I doubt I'd fit in.
I have visited several Muslim countries. I suspect you haven't so let me fill you in. There's a few things they do get right. Now we might find the amputation of hands barbaric, and it is, but to Arabs, thievery is something they take very seriously. Back when they were nomads in the desert, every belonging they owned was needed to survive. Anything stolen from them; a blanket, food, water, a camel, condemned them to death unless they could quickly find a replacement. To steal from someone was to kill them and punishments were meted out accordingly.
As someone who has traveled Arabia, one thing I've noticed is that their cities are free of urban black crime. You can leave your car unlocked and a Rolex sitting on the driver seat and it will be there when you return. You can walk the streets at night and not have to look over your shoulder at an ATM machine. It's nice.
I feel safer on the streets of Manama, Dubai or Muscat than I do on the streets of Jacksonville, Florida. No black crime.
So this thief nearly loses a hand robbing a mosque? Oh well... Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. No sympathy from me.
Having a bad day there iffffiiiiiiigigan?
When I see freepers advocating Sharia, it is a bad day.
Of course Drew68 cry babies about being called out on it as well, I see.
This it’s own topic.
Wasn't me.
I don't alert the mods to posts that show the poster becoming unhinged. I'd prefer those posts remain. They're amusing.
I don’t doubt you.
