Black Muslim US soldier is a suspect! ("10 U.S. Soldiers Hurt In Grenade Attack")
CBS News website ^ | 3-22-03 | CBS

Posted on 03/22/2003 5:18:31 PM PST by Atlas Sneezed

(CBS) Ten U.S. soldiers were injured, six or seven of them seriously, in a grenade and small arms attack at Camp Pennsylvania in northern Kuwait, reports CBS News Correspondent Mark Strassmann, who is traveling with the U.S. Army's 101st Airborne Division.

Strassmann said the grenades were rolled into two commanders' tents at the camp. When officers ran from the tents, they were hit by small arms fire.

"From our reports it appears that a terrorist penetrated Camp Pennsylvania, one or more terrorists threw two hand grenades into a tent," said George Heath, spokesman at Fort Campbell, home base of the 101st.

Strassman said three suspects were being held for questioning, two Kuwaitis who served a translators and an American soldier described as a black Muslim.

The injured soldiers were rushed to a field hospital but military officials had no word on their conditions, Lt. Cmdr. Charles Owens said from Camp As Sayliyah in Qatar.

The military did not identify the unit of the 101st that was in the camp but said it had been in Kuwait for about one week. Most of the division has entered southern Iraq.

Separately, Strassmann reported, an Iraqi rocket fired at U.S. forces in Kuwait was destroyed by Patriot missiles launched from nearby Camp New Jersey.

The terror and missile attack came as the U.S. assault on Iraq gained steam. American and British forces besieged the southern city of Basra and pounded Baghdad with impunity. But tough fighting loomed for coalition troops as they pressed deeper into Iraq.

I meant that thin disguise you wear to hide the fact that you're mostly show, and very little substance.

You know, the HTML thingy, the goofy cat...

It's guilt by association, don't you know?

Is that what you call it when you determine your position on a matter based on how the various cliques at FR line up?

The NOI/ Black Muslims, don't, in fact, use the Koran. They use the Protestant Bible ( both Testements ) and a jumble of made up garbage, which Elijah Muhammed wrote up in the 1930s and which has been expanded upon, by Louis Farrakhan. Even Malcom X, after having on on his Hadj, came back to the USA and said that the NOI was NOT anything remotely like REAL Islam.

These are the facts; why don't YOU attempt to face them ?

I think the cat is pretty cool. And it helps me to find Sabertooth's posts more quickly. There I can always find a bit of class and a lot of good fact-based reasoning--even if hidden beneath a "venner" of sarcasm at times.

LOL.

No, it isn't. It's what you get when you assume ALL members of a religion are fanatics.

Sort of like how the vast majority of people view a lot of Christians.

When you have people saying that Islam is a bloody cult, and nobody contradicts such a ludicrous statement, it makes us ALL look bad.

And you knew the answer to that question before you asked it.

Man, you're ignorant.

If the Vatican says that you're not a Catholic, you may claim to be one...but you're not.

If the Koran says that Allah's only Prophet was Mohammed, and that Muslims will not accept any other Prophets, but the Nation of Islam says that Elijah Muhammed was a Prophet...they are not Muslims.

Speaking of HTML thingies, you wanna fix you link at #1151, the one that would substantiate your State Department claim?

Hmmm.

A man I work with is big time into the NOI (A real chip on the shoulder punk, but I get along with him all right). He quotes the Koran often and with great reverence. I'll have to ask him about it.

Thanks for the info.

I am working on getting Frank Gaffney for a radio FR show. Should be good if he will do it. Let him expose the whole mess right here at FR.

Today he exposed.......


Frank Gaffney was on FOX News this afternoon railing about the possibility that Muslim Military Chaplains might be teaching that fighting against the Iraqis is not allowed by Islam. He was concerned that this Black Muslim soldier may have been influenced by some mullah. I don't know if that's the case. Sounds like the guy had lots of 'issues' to make him go off on his fellow soldiers like that!

You are correct, sir, that the Pope has that ability, but you do not--not for any religion that you are not the titular head.

And you dodged my question again. Would you say that a religion that denies the Blessed Trinity, but claims to be Christian is not Christian?

Dang it Luis! Why didn't you tell me that earlier?

All that time on bibliographies, and all I had to do was write "library."

They use some Koranic scripture; cherrypicked and NOT the entire Koran. The NOI is a hodge-podge of this and that. Having lived in Chicago, I got to read an awful lot about the NOI, for 17 years.

Don't expect to get the truth, about the NOI, from your fellow worker. If you're really interested, the Chicago Magazine and the Tribune, have run lengthy, fact filled articles, for decades, about the NOI and ALL of its " leaders ", for decades. Some were written by undercover journalists, others by members and ex-members, so EVERY spectrum has been covered.

If this isn't quite good enough, then might I suggest that you read Malcom X's own words, on the NOI ?

And NO , the NOI is NOT really a sect of Islam; it is a cult.

Muslim Americans have built an enviable record of socio-economic accomplishment in this country

I wonder what he has to back that up with?

have won wide public acceptance of their faith

Don't think so.

and have managed to make it particularly difficult for anyone to criticize their religion or customs.

And they are proud of that? It's sort of like their very own "race card," isn't it?

What a gem! A real class act. We need more like that one flooding into America, for sure.

Human civilization had better wake up soon and get as serious about its survival as the seventh-century savages of Islam are about our annihilation!
SLEEPING AMERICANS ARE EASIER TO KILL.
Do not be lulled to sleep by the Religion of Peace defenders.

Click here and never forget the face of Islam and what it wants for you infidels.
