A fire at a Houston mosque, resulting in "significant" damage, was declared an arson, authorities said Saturday.
The blaze erupted on Christmas Day around 2:45 p.m. in the house of worship on South Wilcrest Drive, according to the Houston Fire Department.
"Through the on-going investigation by the joint- investigative team...the investigation classification has been upgraded to INCENDIARY," the statement said.
No one was injured in the fire, which lasted about 40 minutes, the department said.
The case was under investigation by the Houston Arson Bureau.
"Because of the recent spike in hate incidents targeting mosques nationwide, we urge law enforcement authorities to investigate a possible bias motive for this fire," said Mustafaa Carroll, the Houston Executive Director of the organization Council on American-Islamic Relations.

Could be a workplace accident. They’re pretty common when Muzzies are putting their bombs together.

“Because of the recent spike in hate incidents targeting mosques nationwide”
Show me the proof. Otherwise this is more lies covering up Muslim terrorism.

Funny how all these acts of ‘arson’ result in fires that are quickly extinguished and do little damage.

In all fairness, there may have been a raped Muslim woman in there, so if an Islamist started the fire, it would probably be a just action based on Sharia Law.
We should probably cut them some slack until this plays out.

LOL workplace accident.
Reminds me of a recent story, in which a teacher at a Muslim terror training camp blew himself up, while instructing the class on the use of suicide vests and bombs.

Taqiyya! Remember This Word!
Click The Text Below For Link
Taqiyya is a concept and a reality that non-Muslims must bear in mind when reading or listening to the words of Muslims.
Taqiyya (also spelled taqiya or taqiyyah) is lying to advance Islam and/or to prevent harm to Muslims (taqiyya literally means "prevention").
Muslims justify taqiyya from the Quran, other Islamic texts and the example set by Muhammad, including the following:
"The Apostle said...'Who will rid me of Ibnul Ashraf?' Muhammad bin Maslama, brother of the Bani Abdul-Ashaf, said, 'I will deal with him for you, O Apostle of Allah, I will kill him.' [Muhammad] said, 'Do so if you can... All that is incumbent upon you is that you should try.' [The Assassin] said, 'O Apostle of Allah, we shall have to tell lies.' He answered, 'Say what you like, for you are free in the matter.'" - Ibn Ishaq, The Life of Muhammad, page 307 (Click Here For More)

There is a popular belief, especially in America, that all people, deep down, want democracy, individual liberty, toleration, peace, and equality under the law. While undoubtedly true of many, this modern ideal assumes that everyone is the same; that anyone who is educated in the ways of Western democratic, ideals will embrace them if given a chance, and that inequalities in the world are the product of bad governments, not bad people.
The reconstruction of Germany and Japan after WWII, and the successful adoption of democracy by those countries, appeared to validate this notion and emboldened the U.S. to employ the same nation-building strategy in the Mid East. Among these Muslim nations, however, universal democracy has proven to be an illusion leading to over a half century of misguided foreign policy that has repeatedly failed. In what can only be characterized as an embarrassing display of ignorance, the U.S. has consistently underestimated the depth and determination of Islamâs political ideology.[5] Nazism, Japanese imperialism, and Soviet brand communism were a mere flash-in-the-pan compared to Islamic supremacism, the roots of which go back fourteen centuries. Islamism is here to stay.
U.S. military and economic intervention in Iran, Iraq, Egypt, and even Afghanistan have failed either to hold Islamists at bay or to establish stable Islamic democracies. The so-called âArab Spring,â which re-energized hopes of establishing democracy in the Mid East and Africa, has turned icy; in every country, fascist regimes collapsed under the pressure of popular uprisings, only to be replaced by radical Islamic governments. It is clear that many Muslims either prefer Shariah law to democracy, are willing to acquiesce to the will of militant Islamists[6], or have no capability with which to fend off the militant Islamists.

Arson does not exist, just as Islamic terrorism does not exist—just ask the feckless fool on the hill for proof.

Was it a justified arson? Like self-defense?
