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.

"Black has nothing to do with it. Muslim, on the other hand, is something that should make us all take a second look."

I think the reason why this is striking a chord with many people is because they realize that muslims of the black variety seem to be drawn to the hate-whitey, calypso Louie brand of Islam, the brand that uses religion as a mask for their own racism and sense of alienation from American culture. These black muslims hate America and probably should not be serving in the armed forces, but what to do with muslims-- kick them all out? How can you tell which are truly religious people following their beliefs, and which are nutjobs just waiting to kill Americans?

"I don't see how 'black' is relevant in this situation. Muslim clearly is relevant, but I'm unclear why 'black' matters."

Dog Gone: "It matters because it specifically describes a distinct movement in the US. It's like describing a white separatist. Why does "white" matter in that description?

It matters because it conveys specific useful information."

Dog Gone,

Best answer I have heard so far. Black Muslim is merely a nice euphemism for Black Supremecist, no?

Not sure what Mohammad would do, but the Army will most likely tie this son-of-a-bitch to a post somewhere and put some holes in his worthless ass!

If, for reasons of PC or to keep our Muslim "allies" from thinking we're waging some religious war, the US Army DOES NOT, we're in bigger trouble as a nation at the top than we thought.

Thanks! Its just strange to what lengths certain people here will go to be in step with the President even when he is 100% wrong over this Islam is Peace lie.

And now we have the fact there is hidden sleeper cells of terrorist in with our troops. Waiting to kill them.

Simple answer is to send every Muslim home from this war NOW.

Frank Gaffney, of the Reagan defense establishment, was on Fox yesterday describing the nine Wahabbi chaplains in the military being a source of radical Muslim influence in the military. PC is capable of destroying our security if not checked!

...
He is warning but GOOD about this and other things that the White House better start paying attention to and deal with.

Like here.......here

....
What particularly worries some observers is the possibility that White House contacts with some of the Muslim groups and leaders might be more extensive than is publicly known — and that the president's political opponents will try to exploit them. Indeed, on February 27, California Democratic congressman Henry Waxman wrote a letter to the Secret Service requesting all electronic records of visits by Sami al-Arian to the White House complex. Waxman also asked for "all requests, whether granted or denied, by White House employees that Sami al-Arian be admitted to the White House complex." And he asked whether the Secret Service had identified al-Arian's alleged terrorist connections and objected to his visit, only to be overruled by White House officials.

Black Muslim = Black Nationalist
Black Nationalist = Black Separatists

They are not "Supremecist", but racist, none the less.

I've probably sat through five dozen "Our diversity is our strength" brainwashing classes. I've never sat through one of those brainwashing sessions without attacking the teachers and questioning them. I also don't tolerate mishy mouthed feel good words, I ask them why and give me proof. These trained diversity teachers become quiet because they can't take the next step.

I tend to think he'd throw grenades into our tents.

Islam in all it's incarnations is evil, therefor, all those who beleive Islam to be a legitimate religion are likewise evil. I hope this is'nt too confusing for you all.

They are not "Supremecist", but racist, none the less.

Take a look at their theology. Nation of Islam belief is that Blacks are the only true humans, that whites and browns are the result of an evil genetic experiment by an ancient Black scientist called "Yacub". What logicly follows is that whites are to be ultimately exterminated.

The only difference between Nation of Islam and the Nazis is that NoI is not in any position (yet) to take action on their beliefs
