Amazingly BO is ABSOLUTELY CORRECT. The definition of slander: “a malicious, false, and defamatory statement or report”. Notice the word “false”. Factually reporting the truth is NOT slander.

The so-called “prophet” of islam was a corrupt, violent, evil, pedophile. To call his doctrine “a religion of peace” is slanderous to its true violent nature.

All MSM, all leftists, all democrats, most RINOS, and all muslims are complacent in promoting a false narrative of islam by failing to report the true nature of its “prophet”. The future MUST ABSOLUTELY NOT belong to these people.

Well, who are the 24 people they’ve arrested? Wouldn’t that point to a specific group? How can they be arresting people and still not be sure who’s responsible for the attacks?

Middle East and terrorism, occasional political and Jewish issues Ping List. High Volume If you’d like to be on or off, please FR mail me.

..................

Pretty rude, identifying the terrorists as Muslims or Islamists when they're just some people who did something. 300 dead, a much smaller something than 9/11. I expect a resolution in the House condemning the papers who reported this information about the ROP.

Has she condemned the Christians or Jews yet?

Yes. Her initial statement said all religious people everywhere should be free to worship without fear.

Sri Lanka is only 10% muslim
////////////////

America was less than 10% muslim on 9/11/2001. But we are working tirelessly to rectify that disparity through our immigration system both legal and illegal. all glory to the profit.

I understand the comparison, but these really seemed to target Westerners (and the small native Christian population). The Mumbai attack was similar; Indians weren’t the primary target.

The Tigers were made up largely of Tamils with Hindu backgrounds (that's confusing on its own), but the organization was your run-of-the-mill violent criminal gang espousing socialism and 'liberation'.

Sounds like a baseball team :)

Now I have to look all these groups up.

Not sure if you’re joking here or not because I don’t know the history!!
