Why don't you tell me one Muslim Leader that has stood up and said the Killing of Jews in Israel is dead wrong the killing of Americans is dead wrong! Tell me when they have ever said respect the cultures of Christians and Jews. Respect women, tell me one leader doing that besides our President.

I don't see too many oppressed muslim women in this country. In fact, most of the ones I know, and have known in my life, are pretty mcuh free to do what they want when they want, and without their husband's approval and everything!

By the way - did you know that the Quran forbids Islam from waging Jihad within nations where Muslims are allowed to freely worship? So, based on that, the "muslims" that wage war in this country - the terrorists - are violating a major tenent of their religion.

ISCA Memorial to Remember Victims of 9/11

*** FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE ***

Washington, DC - The Washington-DC based Islamic Supreme Council of America and The As-Siddiq Institute and Mosque of Burton, Michigan, announce a "Day of Remembrance" on the second anniversary of the September 11 terror attacks.

ISCA and ASIM will be holding a national meeting of commemoration and prayer, with attendees coming from across the country to participate. Mosque doors will be open from 3:00 p.m. for any and all to attend and join in our ceremonies and prayers, with the main gathering taking place in the prayer hall at 7:00 p.m.

"On this, the second year after the 9/11 terror attacks, we call on all believers, from every faith to come together in the spirit of shared sorrow for, when our country was attacked, each and every one of our hearts suffered a wound," said Dr. Hedieh Mirahmadi, ISCA’s new executive director. "Our sentiments go out to every person who suffered from these horrific attacks. We pray that, as this nation heals its wounds, it emerges stronger and more unified than before."

Mirahmadi called on Muslims to stand behind President Bush in all that he is doing to prevent future attacks.

"We ask our community to remain ever-vigilant for those would seek to harm our nation," she said.

ISCA and ASIM welcome the participation and attendance of local religious leaders, law enforcement officials, and civic and community leaders, as well as our neighbors and friends in the local area at this memorial event.

Women keep silent in the churches. Ask your man privately if you have questions about something.
I Corinthians 14:34

Women are to wear a veil as a sign that a man maintains authority over her.

"The leaders of nine Muslim American groups said in a joint letter to President Bush September 11, "American Muslims, who unequivocally condemned today terrorist attacks on our nation, call on you to alert fellow citizens to the fact that now is a time for all of us to stand together in the face of this heinous crime."

"We hope that the perpetrators of these crimes will be apprehended immediately and swiftly brought to justice. Muslims stand with all other Americans who, on this sad day, feel a sense of tremendous grief and loss," the Muslim American leaders added."

"The Islamic Supreme Council of America issued a statement saying, "we join our neighbors, co-workers and friends across ethnic, cultural and religious lines in mourning the devastating loss of precious life, which Islam holds sacred." The council chairman, Shaykh Muhammad Hisham Kabbani, encouraged whoever is able to donate blood and money to the local chapters of the Red Cross. "

As for denouncing terrorism, the book "Islam Denounces Terrorism" by Haran Yahya is a pretty good read.

"We oppose both the Israeli killing of the innocent and the bombing of innocent Israelis by some radical Palestinians"
