Kelowna Muslims speak out about Ottawa shooting
Global News ^ | October 22, 2014 | kelly Hayes

Posted on 10/23/2014 6:13:57 AM PDT by Ethan Clive Osgoode

In an email to Global Okanagan, the Islamic Centre of Kelowna condemns the attack saying the incident has nothing to do with the Muslim faith.

“I can understand and appreciate often people’s feelings that: ‘Oh we need to defend Islam again’ whereas I would rather express my feelings a bit differently,” says spokesman, Hamid Butt. “We don’t have to defend Islam rather our focus should be to educate (the) community at large that these types of incidents are sad indeed and has nothing to do with Islam.”

Butt says he feels that Muslims are being singled out and misrepresented in the media.

“I strongly believe that we can fight this unfair battle of misrepresenting Islam with education and demonstration of true Islamic teachings – living in peace and harmony.”

A typically insulting and offensive reaction from a muslim representative. Muslims aren't to blame, they have nothing to do with it, but normal Canadian folks ARE to blame; they are ignorant and need to be re-educated about Islam.

Wow.

Nothing about 'prayers for the wounded'.

Nothing about 'we denounce this action'.

Just, 'Islam is still wonderful'.

There are NO MODERATE MUSLIMS. If you are a muslim, you are my bitter enemy.

If Muslims don’t want to have the image of “terrorists”, how’s about they just STOP ATTACKING US?!!

Duh, simple.

Mr. Butt.... Why don't you try educating your peaceful Islamists that rape pillage murder behead and terrorize millions of people around the world that Islam is the peaceful fuzzy unicorn religion you believe it is.

Setting aside any other causes of world unrest, peace will never be possible unless islam is eradicated.

This is a grudging and lukewarm comment about unprovoked conduct that has become increasingly common and brutal!

If that’s the best he could do, he should STFU!

” living in peace and harmony”

Unless you’re a Christian, Jew, woman, Hindu, Buddhist, goat or sheep.

Muslims kill more muslims than they kill non-muslims. Peace and harmony my hiney.

Always nice to see a mulim practicing an other tenet of their faith...lying to non-muslims.

Denounce and flush your so-called holy book down the terlet and we will consider your sincerity.

Maybe a generation or two of documenting the absence of taqiya would assist in your effort

Until then, Butt ... stick it up your name.

So conditioned, when you people encounter those deniers of Allah, in combat, strike their necks to inflict death, and subdue the living at their peril, keep them in confinement and restrict their movements until hostilities have ceased and your enemies have laid down their arms. There and then you either set the captives free for nothing at all in return or for a ransom or for the freedom of Muslim captives. Had Allah willed, He would have punished them in His own manner. But He means to rear you and educate you so that your actions evince both wisdom and integrity, Allah then will establish your genuineness and quality as is asserted or claimed when reason has to deal with force and when you deal with each other in peace and in wars and to prove that the purpose of Allah is objectively the heart of your purpose. And remember that those of you who resisted blood, to acquire the glorious privilege of a martyr never will Allah imprint their works with irreverence profanity or damnation.

.............................

A lot depends on how you interpret “battle” or combat or fight. If it comes out as “jihad” then this applies to ANY nonbeliever.

I hope no FReeper becomes radicalized reading this Koran translation.

This is a particularly demented statement by Butt:
"our focus should be to educate (the) community at large that these types of incidents are sad"
What does this mean? That we must teach Canadians that terrorism is a bad thing, because they aren't aware of that?

...saying the incident has nothing to do with the Muslim faith.

Lying has everything to do with the Muslim faith.

Once upon a time the Black Death threatened the planet. Imagine, if you will, the rats being sentient enough to cry out for ‘coexistence’. “ The plague has nothing to do with us, we are innocently infected by it and carry it against our will.Not all of us are infected. It’s unfair to call it a ‘rat’ thing, even though we are the only ones carrying and spreading it. It’s sad that you’re all dying from it, but really, you should be more ‘educated’ about rats and learn to live with us AND the plague.”
Islam is the Black Death now-and there is NO,NO,NO co-existing with it. Suffer Muslims in your country at your peril. To hell with ‘tolerance’. It’s suicide.
