I will at least try to remember to freepmail you with my on the scene report. I'm not very good with computers and don't post threads here due to frustration levels going thru the roof when I try. I'm not old enough to qualify for free blood pressure pills from the gov't, so I try to limit my frustrating activities.

A fellow by the name of Blues for Golf notified the Iowa Freepers about this event via the Iowa Freeper page. I promised to let him know how it went, too.

I am feeling very ILL

Yes, I'm sure this is really an excellent strategy in disguise. It's something we don't know about, something we can't figure out yet.

[RLK]

Is the government supposed to building facilities to enable these goofs? I know it violates the principle of separation of sanity and state, but doesn't it also violate the princple of church and state?

The face of evil:

[RLK]

And Iowans are going to put up with this in their midst?

Coralville is a suburb of Iowa City and the University of Iowa. The school and the area make Berkley look like the John Birch Society.

I HAD to save that picture!

I do smell a RAT. What the f--- business does any state entity have enabling a Junior Jihadi training camp in the middle of Iowa?!

Our enemies are running rampant in our midst, people, and very few seem to care...

At Muslim Youth Camp, we have a broad definition of “youth.” No one is too young or too old to attend, and we encourage whole families to experience an MYC week together, each finding their own “inner youth.” When families arrive at MYC together, each family member can find camaraderie with campers of his or her own peer group – whether in the craft cabin with other 7-year-olds, or in postgraduate classes with other parents.

MYC is also known for bringing together young Muslims from not only all over the United States and Canada, but also the entire world. An MYC camper is just as likely to make a new friend who lives just across town as one who lives halfway across the globe.

What a great idea. Nothing could go wrong (sarcasm)

[steplock]

But the problem is NOT as much as allowing the camp as it is with the blatant attacks on our own MORAL EHTICS and children by our left-wing radical extremists.

The fact that they are supporting you, in the eyes of most Americans, you cannot be on our side. Rightly or wrongly, If the enemy of our enemy is our friend, then the Friend of our Enemy is our Enemy.

Human nature and your religion agrees with that.

You've totally lost me. Speak slower and clearer, it's grandma.

[steplock]

I am getting worried - this country IS at war. With enemies from without AND from within. Some enemies are obvious, some are in "sheep's clothing".

Strategically, we destroy the obvious enemy while keeping our eye close on the not so obvious / questionable ones. If we blindly go forward, we will be attacked from behind. But if we cowardly sit back and cower, we will be simply destroyed from all sides. I have spent too many years in communist countries - I'm still alive - a lot of them aren't.

I Seem to Remember a Constitutional Prohibition regarding "Separation of Church & State."

You recall wrong. You have been the victim of, as Ann Coulter would say, a "hegemonic" lie.

There is nothing in the constitution to prohibit this. Allowing Muslims, Christians or whoever to use public land is not establishing a religion. Congress once gave public land to Christian missionaries.

Gee ... what's all the fuss ?
I heard on radio today an advertisment for a MUSLIM FAMILY DAY at Canada's Wonderland Park located North of Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

I wonder if one of the events at the park planned on that day will be the march of the junior Al Aqsa Brigade of preteen homicide bombers.
