BAGHDAD (Reuters) - The U.S. military said Wednesday a deadly explosion in a mosque that enraged the Iraqi town of Falluja was triggered by a bomb-making class inside the building.
"The explosion was apparently related to a bomb manufacturing class that was being taught inside the mosque," the U.S. Central Command said in a statement. Falluja residents had accused U.S. forces of attacking the mosque late Monday.
Residents said the blast killed nine people, including the mosque's imam, or prayer leader.
They had blamed it on an American air strike -- an accusation U.S. military officials flatly denied.
Two rocket-propelled grenades were fired at U.S. military vehicles in the town Tuesday night. The U.S. military in Falluja said nobody was hurt.

Bomb Making 101 has been cancelled for the summer semester. Instead, we are presenting a lab course in Darwinian evolution.

I take it someone failed the final exam.
Is that a typical activity for a mosque? And what about mosques here in the US? What are they doing.
Feed the poor? Nope, let the Christians do that before they kill them. Heal the sick. Nope, ditto on that one. Nothing like that. Those things would take resources away from the most important mosque activity- making bombs.
To: dennisw
Well, you know if we were giving them the bombs instead, they wouldn't be forced to learn and practice themselves. You know it is all our fault for forcing them into this, right?

Obviously the learning environment was not up to OSHA specs.

My friends and fellow Freepers;
This is proof that we must put severe restrictions on home schooling and faith based education. Education should not be left to amateurs, but be trusted to professionals.

Is that a typical activity for a mosque? Probably not. Even in Palestine it isn't common. You would think that mainstream Muslims would be horrified to know such things go on in a few mosques.

What is so hard to understand?
Baghdad Bob became a celebrity because of his outrageous lies.
Bomb making in mosques and lying, blaming US.
Pretending to surrender only to get close enough to kill.
Nine Eleven.
All of it. Arab lying, not honoring the neutrality of religious places, ambulances and such.
Devious war.
Targeting non combatants.
It's all stuff Israel has been fighting for decades while most never cared that Israel stood alone holding back the barbarians for all of US.
Now its come to US.
So what do we do? We act surprised at the ways of this barbaric enemy and instead of commiserating and sympathizing with Israel we put a knife in their back and give millions in American aid to those who terrorize Israel and soon enough US.
