Estimates of the number of Muslims living or working in the Russian capital run from 2 million to as high as 5 million, but the city has few mosques. Police said 170,000 people celebrated the holiday in Moscow, including 80,000 who gathered on the street outside what was once the main mosque.

OK, maybe this is the reason the Russian army is training 1000 new snipers.

This isn't about prayer as the press continues to get it wrong worldwide...to a Muslim this display is claiming the ground for Islam..and this in full view of the entire nation and it's leadership.

Where they have always operated their 'infilitration' into a country in the dark shadows...once the numbers are enough they take their stand....THAT is what this is..a visible declaration of the Islamification of Russia...and rubbing it in everybodys faces...and the world remains silent before them......

“In past years, Muscovites have complained angrily about the killing of sheep in the courtyards of apartment buildings in the city center.”

Freaking muslim barbarians.

Well considering that actual Russians are engaging in demographic suicide, they don’t have long. All that Muslims in former Soviet Republics (and the Chinese) need to do is wait and they’ll have a easy go of walking over Russia’s grave.

Actually that would not be a problem. Passing gas when praying is strictly prohibited in the Islamic Religion.

You could get yourself stoned or worse by such an infraction.
