Muslims take to Minnesota State Fair to fix image.

Muslim residents hand out "Islam Explained" to fairgoers; want to show people they are "not terrorists."

Despite the smells of fried dough and roasted meat wafting from the Minnesota State Fair, Salim and Zuleyha Ozonder were focused on the people who were leaving, not the food or festivities beckoning from across the street.

Each time a new wave of people exited, the young Minneapolis residents — who hadn't eaten all day — tried to press into their hands a small, glossy card that read "Islam Explained" on one side. On the other, it had about 180 words of background on a religion whose adherents fear is being misunderstood by too many Americans as violent and depraved.

"You just want people to take the card, spend a minute reading it and say, 'Oh. They're not terrorists,'" said 27-year-old Zuleyha. She and her husband, like other Muslims, were fasting during daylight hours for the Islamic holy month of Ramadan.

I’d print up a counter card with the plane flying into the towers and “Explain This” on it. On the reverse, I’d have a picture of a muslim woman bured up to her waist and being stoned to death with a “Explain This” on it.

Its only a Minnesota thing?

I got into a heated argument with a long time friend last night that totally surprised me, knowing him I took a course of shut up and talk about something else as he is totally stuck on the belief that it doesn’t concern him one bit what happens at the WTC site because he is in Alaska.

I am afraid that many people also look at it the same, that if Muslims do their mosques somewhere else its fine with them.

So what happens when Islam reaches a higher saturation point in America where the mosques start taking over the churches, will it only be then when people react?

I would rather become more outspoken now and for a cause thousands of miles away and to hopefully be part of stopping it then than having to have a lesser role closer in my community later on facing a larger group more deeply embedded.

We all are involved all across America, Islam ONLY wants us to kneel before them, there is no co-existence without submission in some form.

Burning the Koran and all discussions about burning the Koran is a trigger switch right now for Muslims, like a Pavlov dog reaction they cannot sit and be silent when hearing that someone is willing to burn their writings of their deity, this is a profound strategic weakness to exploit.

The more we desecrate their supposed holy book the more it will reveal their intentions. And even recently I would say that the problems with FR may have been attacks my Muslims in reaction to the upcoming burn the Koran day in Florida and also in other parts across the country.

Their is no equality in discussing about reciprocal results of what about Muslims burning the bible, only one is a true religion, the other isn’t.

Its a very important tactical advantage here in using their weakness against them regardless of the consequences, the inevitable cannot be postponed.

That’s 2 SAM!

How about a “Female Genital Mutilation Booth”?

All you would need is their parents/custodians/imans/husbands consent, as in accordance with islamic law.

There could be detail imagery of the step-by-step islamic process just in case the Kafirs don’t know about it to put the women at ease.

In BIG RED LIGHTS above it:

“Over 140 Million severed!”

Absolutely correct. “Peaceful” or terrorist, the women are still treated as breeders, work horses, and subject to unspeakable punishments/death for infraction of the rules of the Koran, the men hold a superior position and can dress and conduct themselves as they wish. The women are required to dress in muslim style clothing, and break no muslim rules of conduct.

The Koran preaches hate, conquest and death to infidels or those who disobey the Koran. Look to the Netherlands, France, England to see just how those of the muslim religion conduct themselves, as they refuse to assimilate with the population, and instead attempt to populate (one of the highest birth rates) and “conquer” a country and establish their many mosques and their sharia law. Reminds me of a swarm of locusts. A swarm of locusts who are following the precepts of their religion. Stop them before they infest our country and destroy our culture, our religious choices.

It is a religion of oppression, extremism and cruelty. Remember, the muslim religion preaches that it is OK to lie to an infidel. You are allowed to lie to an infidel, or do whatever it takes to achieve your goal and your conquest of said infidel. The end justifies the means. Muslims talk out of both sides of their mouths...whatever it takes. Beware, and stop the locusts.

ABSOLUTELY!

“Its a very important tactical advantage here in using their weakness against them regardless of the consequences, the inevitable cannot be postponed.”

I couldn’t imagine being afraid of the truth?

Inconceivable.

Of equal importance is to label those refusing to address the truth such as the judges and Obamas eligibility cases, the Military courts and everyone turning a blind eye to accepting Sharia laws.

We burn the Koran because it has no meaning to us, it is nothing useful to mankind, it is nothing but a cult that devolves manking into cattle and suppresses technological growth.

I would gladly take part of starting a “Kash for Korans” recycling center, we will buy your Koran and recycle it into pressed paper wood chip logs. Or insulation materials.

These creeps are both of “Turkish descent”

When they apologize for the genocide of 4 million Christian Armenians, Greeks, and Assyrians in Turkland and they return the properties they appropriated and stole, then maybe they can open their lying mouths.

When the Muslim Turks apologize for their own version of “Krystallnacht” - against Christians - when they raped and murdered Christians in Istanbul in 1955 - they can dare to talk.

Woah! That’s outside the debating lanes. They will keep showing their a$$es to the GenPub and it’ll come back to haunt them.

“the Military courts”

The UCMJ doesn’t trump the soldiers common sense. I assure you. They’re very well informed.

“and everyone turning a blind eye to accepting Sharia laws.”

That’s the best target.

That’s acceptable, accessible & open to viewing for everyone of them to see.

Fire for effect!

I could care less if they were Santa’s little helpers!

They(the peaceful muzzie couple) CHOOSE to openly LIE to the people(Opps, CORRECTION!! Non-human Infidel scum that their “pederast prophet” instructs them to KILL!!) at that fair and that paper allowed a journalist to print a story about them even though he/she DID NOT DO the SIMPLE internet search to see what that Org was about.

An Org that’s DIRECTLY TIED to the muzzie brotherhood!

That’s what pisses me OFF!

I wouldn’t be surprised if the obituaries section of that paper will show all the people MURDERED on 9/11 as work accidents that OSHA is investigating!

People's perceptions of Christians now is that we are all "haters" , and they think anybody, even Muslims, are better. But can somebody please explain how a "religion" that practices Sharia law, kills anybody who wont convert, holds horrible public executions, cuts off people's heads in revenge killings with rusty knives, kills their own daughters and wives in "honor killings", hates puppies, invades countries like parasites and refuse to assimilate, etc etc appeals to these people?

Plus many defending them and demanding that they receive "tolerance" and the right to plant a victory mosque on the 911 site, are the very people these Islamics will murder after the Christians. there wont be any gays in that day, no free women, and no freedom of or from, religion.

Sure.

Why not?

If I like Brett Farve and I have him on my fantasy football league, does it disqualify me?

"You just want people to take the card, spend a minute reading it and say, 'Oh. They're not terrorists,'" said 27-year-old Zuleyha

Or those people could just turn on the TV news instead, look at it for a minute, and say "Oh, they are terrorists"
