A lone gunman killed a Queens imam and his assistant as the pair walked home from Saturday afternoon prayers, shooting each in the head from close range, cops and witnesses said.
Both victims were dressed in Muslim garb when targeted by the shooter, who fled the scene on foot and remained at large. Members of the mosque quickly denounced the double homicide as a hate crime.
Thats not what America is about, said local resident Khairul Islam, 33. We blame Donald Trump for this ... Trump and his drama has created Islamophobia.

Islam creates fear of Muslims. It isn’t a phobia when the danger is real.

I’m sick and tired of muslim sympathizers and full fledged muslims from Obama on down lecturing Americans what America is and isn’t, and lecturing Americans about who we are.

Denying Islam is the motivator when a mass shooter is screaming "Allah Akbah!"...
....and in the same breath, blaming Trump for a murder of Muslims he had NOTHING to do with.

It is unfortunate that these men died, but their deaths are being used as propaganda against Trump. By design.

Knowing Muslims, it could be a false flag attack. Especially if the Imam was leaning towards moderation.
