thinking...he's a Sunni like his father...who converted to 'pure' islam and made the hadjj.
Wait and see who protests. That will identify the sect to which they belong.

NEW YORK -- Federal prosecutors are taking steps to seize four U.S. mosques and a New York City skyscraper owned by a nonprofit Muslim organization.
The organization -- called the Alavi Foundation -- has long been suspected of being under Iranian government control. Prosecutors say the foundation has been helping to illegally funnel money back to the Iranian government.
The government filed a forfeiture action in federal court in New York to seize four mosques in the city and in Maryland, California and Houston. The government also wants to take control of a 36-story office tower on New York's Fifth Avenue.
The filing starts what could be a drawn-out legal process.
The action against the Shiite Muslim mosques is sure to inflame relations between the U.S. government and American Muslims. Many of them are fearful of a backlash after last week's Fort Hood shooting rampage, blamed on a Muslim American soldier.
The mosques and the office tower will remain open while the forfeiture case works its way through court.
Ping to Federal seizure of 3 NY Mosques. ( Token actions? )
Jihad is NOT the Answer!
What if they gave a Jihad and nobody came?
It’s about time!
“The action against the Shiite Muslim mosques is sure to inflame relations between the U.S. government and American Muslims...”
This is the United States of America. You follow United States LAWS! If they don’t like it, “F” THEM!
Somewhere I heard there would be arrests today, but I cannot confirm.
4 jihadi indoctrination centers seized.
Where in California?
What will they do with the confiscated mosques?
I know—open some Kosher Delis.

Probably open abortion clinics?
Open Military surplus stores to sell the existing
inventory?
Broad cast the Amish call to prayer over loud speakers?
The government can’t even run a wh—e houes! They LOST MONEY while they were in the brothel business!
You forgot “Make Kielbasa, Not Jihad!”
“The filing starts what could be a drawn-out legal process.”
So, how long do you think this will take? Or, was the process started a while back and we’re just hearing about it?
This is going to be an interesting process. Iran was using the non profit as a laundry to illegally transfer money from the USA.
I bet the Feds knew this was happening for quite some time.
It will be interesting to see if they are Shi’ite or not.
The article identifies the mosques as shiite. Populated by a shiite majority, Iran is the greatest enemy Sunni Saudi Arabia has...
And Sunni Saudi Arabia is the funding source for most radical Imams and mosques in the U.S.
Yes. And they will continue to be protected. Money for shiites goes OUT of the country. Money for sunni activities comes IN.

Hey! And interspersed with Christmas carols. Then a little bit of country music, and finally Beethoven's Ninth Symphony.
The loudspeakers may have a splendid use after all.
