Unfortunately, at times it appears that this is what they want.
If a Christian or Jew was responsible for these acts, Christians and Jews would be calling for swift justice.
Correct me if I am wrong, but I see the Muslim community as being a brotherhood. They will not condemn their evil brothers???
We must not repeat the travesty of the Japanese Internment during WWII.
Yes, and the real test is how many of them provide INTEL on the Moslems who have infiltrated our nation to murder us.
Here's the fatwa I would need to see before I start believing they're really against Oscuma bint Larden:
On that basis, and in compliance with God's order, we issue the following fatwa to all Muslims: The ruling to kill Osama bin Ladin and his allies -- civilians and military -- is an individual duty for every Muslim who can do it in any country in which it is possible to do it, in order to liberate Islam from the grip of a murderous terrorist and his satanic followers, and in order for them to be defeated and unable to threaten any person anywhere.
When I see this hypothetical fatwa activated, I'll start to reconsider certain opinions. Until then, they remain.
American Muslims: your countrymen lie dead. Many of them were Muslim. Bin Ladin murders the innocent and profanes the Quran and Mohammed by pretending that to speak for Islam.
If writing a naughty book is worthy of a fatwa, isn't this?
The Muslims of America do not have to apologize for something they didn't do.
The people who did this will be punished.
Nonetheless, it is disturbing that the Muslim-American community is behaving like any other special-interest racial group in America, with its leadership more concerned about imagined victimhood than in unity with other Americans. The balkanization of this country continues.
Meanwhile, the quiet memorials and ceremonies and church services I've witnessed in America bear no resemblance to the angry shouting that I see among Muslims when even one of their number is killed. And should one of our bombs accidently harm innocents in Afghanistan, you won't see children dancing and laughing in the streets of America in celebration.
There's a difference between the Cross of Christ and the Sword of Mohammed.
I will if they will.
Mr Masoud is evidently already educated beyond his intelligence.
It is entirely appropriate that when Mass Murder on a wholesale scale is perpetrated, that the perpetrators need to be found ASAP.
I doubt that even a sleeper would go to the trouble of getting citizenship. Let's see if this is clear enough for our room-temperature IQ liberal Freepers...
Muslims who are here illegaly and other Muslims who are here as temporary guests who verbalize hatred towards their hosts, should be deported immediately.
And the remaining Mass Murderers still loose among us should be found and stopped; dead or alive.
Is that clear enough?
Note there is no mention anywhere of American citizens.
This fine young man hits the nail on the head. I have been reading Arab-American websites and checking the news stories that have been popping up about the anticipated and feared wave of anti-arab prejudice that is sure to come. But I keep feeling that something is missing frim these expressions of condolences and the whining about how they face twice the psychic damage from this tragedy becuase they have to "keep looking over their shoulders," and how "we don't yet know who did these crimes" etc. They just don't want to deal with the reality that the great majority of the terror in the last 30 years has been perpretated in the name of the Islamist cause, or at least for the political purpose of Arab regimes. They refuse to denounce all suicide bombers, because the ones who blow up teenagers in Israeli discoteques are "different" because, well, because they are part of a "struggle" against Israeli policies vs, the Palestinian people.
The Arab-American Anti-Discrimination website describes a poll taken of Americans asking them about their impressions of Palestinians, etc. They seem shocked and a bit huffy that Americans, across the board, find suicide bombings of innocent civilians unacceptable. Reading this, I get the feeling that they believe that with the right marketing and focus group campaign that americans can be persuaded that such bombings are a legitimate form of social protest.
If these guys are good, patriotic Americans, then announce that they are going to volunteer to help the FBI by infiltrating the terror fifth-columns that exist to support the murdering monsters that have attempted to decapitate the American nation. Stop trying to out-victim the true victims, suck it up, expect that a few isolated nut jobs are going to harrass or even attack you, and work to make America safe to live in. Tell your cousins and uncles back in the Old Country to stop the horrible propaganda about America that calls us a Zionist-controlled puppet. I swear, the kind of loony tinfoil-hat conspiracy theory stuff that the anti-American Arabs spew out is as bad or worse than the crap the Aryan nations and their ilk barf up.
I would say to the Arab-American community: Sign up for the armed forces, roll bandages, give to the Red Cross. You don't hear New Yorkers whining now, do you? Then neither should you.
Just one man's opinion.
