Imam’s Throat Slit for Saying Peace Prayers

Danwakote (rajouri), December 27: Piqued over the peace prayers at the local Jamia Masjid in non-descript hamlet of Danwakote in Rajouri district, militants last night abducted and slit the throat of the Imam of the mosque, sparking off a huge protest demonstration in the area.

Sources said today morning, hundreds of villagers from Danwakote and its adjoining areas came out on the streets to protest the killing of Moulvi Mohammad Bashir, the head priest of the Jamia Masjid mosque.

This is for the first time in the area that a religious preacher has been killed by militants.

According to villagers, at 8:30 pm last night, some unidentified gunmen barged into the house of Bashir and abducted him and another villager Khalil Ahmad at gunpoint.

After taking them a kilometer away, militants released Ahmad, but slit throat of Bashir, whose body was spotted by villagers.

Demanding visit of human rights organisation to the area, protesters said, “The killing of Imam has exposed the militants’ claim of carrying out jehad and their so-called sympathy with Muslims of the area.”

S.A. Mujtaba, Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP), Rajouri, pacified the agitated villagers.

Khalil Ahmad was in a state of shock. He said from the dress and the chaste Punjabi language that gunmen spoke, it seemed that they were from Pakistan.

Meanwhile, Imam was laid to rest with full religious honours in the evening.

A month ago, killing of village numberdar, Mohammad Hussein, in Shahdara Sharief area had also ignited people, who took to roads.

On 9/11 a bunch of passengers united to bake back a hijacked airplane that didn't even belong to them.

To this day mooselimbs won't unite to take back their own religion, which they claim has been hijacked...

I don't think this will be the last time that the 'religion of peace' kills it's own clergy.

this guy was one of the alleged 'moderate' and 'peaceful' muslii.

this is what THEY do to any muslii that appear to be either peaceful or moderate.

There is no peaceful or moderate islam, only practising and non-practising muslii.


the non-practising, are beheaded as soon as they speak out.

so nuke mecca... and about 50 or 60 'terrorist training centers' while they are not having prayers...

every night take out another half a hundred.

After the first 5000 are leveled, with few or no casualties, the leaders of this socalled 'faith', will surrender. No mosques? No weapons caches, recruitment or training centers for the little bastard jihadis to visit.

It's time to save islamics from Islam itself.
They apparently are unable to.

This should show anybody that the only way to deal with these bloodthirsty terrorists is to KILL THEM DEADER'N'HELL!

Of course, the Hollywood pansies, the Jimmy Carters, the Jacques Chiracs, and the John Kerrys of the world will never understand this.

Why should you care if there are snake handling fundamentalists in West Virginia? Why mention them in the same breath as Muslim murderers?

Still a terrorist hotbed.

Stop. Re-read null and void's post. Think. Put in perspective. And get a shot of something for that jerking knee.

Not trying to get banned or anything, but Why couldn't Bill Clinton have been our first Muslim President? I could be cheering on this post...

No - they are just "cleansing" the few that really want peace from their ranks.

In case you didn't notice the Iman was a MUSLIM who's throat was cut for PRAYING FOR PEACE.

Perhaps you should actually read an article before you post your cut and paste condemnations of ALL Muslims next time.
Just a suggestion.

I think the comment was directed at Islam as a "rational" system of faith and not at any particular Muslim. I've known a couple Muslims who were genuinely good people. I HATE Islam. Yes, there is a difference.
