How much of what is going on is a manipulation to hate Muslims?
That is what I wonder.

And that is why whenever a tragedy strikes - people have to be able to counter whatever stupid spin the media is trying to put over on people.

The Bloomington, IN Mosque was firebombed last Saturday. I blame the Mainstream Media ( as well as the people who threw the bomb.)



And there was this story, as well:

British knight, Muslim, professor, refused entry to US

(forwarded by an organizer of the Chautauqua Institute)

Zaki Badawi, 82, was denied entry to America from Britain. He was to give a lecture at Chautauqua Institute New York July 14 on Islam as part of its series on law and religion in society. He is well known in Britain as 'the unofficial leader of British Muslims,' he appeared with other British religious leaders to condemn the London bombings of 7/7, was guest at a 2003 dinner hosted by the Queen for President Bush, has an honorary knighthood, and is the founder of the Muslim College in London. He has been in the USA many times in the past.

2. When i lived in WV
I was a regular defending my Muslim friends. It helps being able to bench press a Volkswagon, but the bigotry was real bad.

8. So this morning
I got an email from my brother - something going around the web - the intention of which is to stir up hatred against Muslims. Clips from the Koran. That sort of thing.

I'm really aggravated that he sent it to me. He knows I don't fall for that crap.


And then there is this, also:

"Operation Save America": A Week Of Mosque-Picketing Begins
