Woolwich attack: British imams condemn act
The Scotsman ^ | 27th May 2013 | The Scotsman

Posted on 05/27/2013 7:04:39 AM PDT by the scotsman

'NEARLY 100 British imams have signed a letter condemning the Woolwich attack.

They offered their condolences to the family of murdered soldier Lee Rigby and called for communities to “remain calm and vigilant”.

Their letter reads: “We share the absolute horror felt by the rest of British society at the sick and barbaric crime committed in the name of our religion. We condemn this heinous atrocity in the strongest possible terms.

“It is a senseless act of pure depravity worthy of nothing but contempt. There can be no justification for murder.”

It was signed by 94 imams, including Shaykh Ibrahim Mogra, assistant secretary general of the Muslim Council of Britain.

It said imams and Muslim organisations had spoken out “over the evils of terrorism” for many years, but recent events showed they could not afford to be complacent.'

No hurry to speak up...no surprise. I guess they needed to do their focus groups first.

Hmm those Imams must not be reading their Koran then. As you mentioned, they are required to lie and decieve us so they can overtake our lands. It wouldn’t be that hte a Imams are afraid that they might not be able to advance their hidden armies into our lands with the recent outrage by this completely unnecessary and horrendous act would it?:

Allah is an enemy to unbelievers. - Sura 2:98

On unbelievers is the curse of Allah. - Sura 2:161

Slay them wherever ye find them and drive them out of the places whence they drove you out, for persecution is worse than slaughter. - 2:191

Fight against them until idolatry is no more and Allah’s religion reigns supreme. (different translation: ) Fight them until there is no persecution and the religion is God’s entirely. - Sura 2:193 and 8:39

Fighting is obligatory for you, much as you dislike it. - 2:216
(different translation: ) Prescribed for you is fighting, though it is hateful to you.

..... martyrs.... Enter heaven - Surah 3:140-43

If you should die or be killed in the cause of Allah, His mercy and forgiveness would surely be better than all they riches they amass. If you should die or be killed, before Him you shall all be gathered. - 3:157-8

You must not think that those who were slain in the cause of Allah are dead. They are alive, and well-provided for by their Lord. - Surah 3:169-71

Let those fight in the cause of God who sell the life of this world for the hereafter. To him who fights in the cause of God, whether he is slain or victorious, soon we shall give him a great reward. - Surah 4:74

Those who believe fight in the cause of God, and those who reject faith fight in the cause of evil. - 4:76

But if they turn renegades, seize them and slay them wherever you find them. - 4:89

Therefore, we stirred among them enmity and hatred, which shall endure till the Day of Resurrection, when Allah will declare to them all that they have done. - 5:14

O believers, take not Jews and Christians as friends; they are friends of each other. Those of you who make them his friends is one of them. God does not guide an unjust people. - 5:54

That is rich and will almost gurantee was not his birth name. Having worked on many cases involving Muzzies perpetrating fraud on U.S. soil, it’s pretty standard protocol for them to take American / Anglicized first names once they land on U.S. soil but full names not so much unless it’s a completely fake ID. I’ll lay bets that’s not even his name...lol

...and one other thing. If a bunch of church kids start talking about blowing up stuff to other kids - THEY DON’T - because they know that they will be turned in.

But mosques seem to be “safe places”, where such talk is ignored by those who do not want to participate. Yes, once in a great while, someone is turned in - but the ONLY case that I can remember was the kid’s FATHER doing it. Someone who didn’t come to the UK to take it over, but rather to try to provide for his kids (some thanks he got).

So the mosques need to do MORE now. They need to allow MONITORING of their activities - because the right to privacy is a TWO WAY STREET. If you want to be left alone, then don’t go planning terrorist activities, or, even worse, justifying them.

In New York, Mayor Guilini and then Bloomberg, did monitor those activities. They did it not because they had a problem with your religion, but because they were elected, both of them, primarily TO KEEP PEOPLE SAFE, and they did their job.

Perhaps the “Muzzies” are frightened for going too far. Little do they know they have no real reason to fear as no significant number of Westerners will do a d*mned thing.

>>There can be no justification for murder.

Except that the imams define “murder” as the killing of a Muslim, while defining the killing of an infidel soldier as a legitimate act of jihad.

Then bury the perps in pigskin, after their trial, conviction and public hanging.

Or-

Just skip those testy trial parts and stone them to death under sharia law, then bury them in pigskin.

After that - I will begin to think about believing those Imams.

““We share the absolute horror felt by the rest of British society at the sick and barbaric crime committed in the name of our religion. We condemn this heinous atrocity in the strongest possible terms”

Did they issue fatwahs out for radicals? I thought not. This is lying to the non-blievers in an effort to prevent blowback.

Having not noticed any real time condemnation, I’m going to label this a convenient and insincere reaction to the blowback their getting.

Ding, ding, ding - we have a thread winnah!
