As the Muslim holy month of Ramadan ends Friday, a spate of recent terrorist attacks by Islamist extremists — including massacres in Tunisia and Kuwait — has marred a time intended for contemplation and prayer.
But for Muslim American immigrants in the Washington area, this Ramadan has offered an opportunity to send a contrasting message about Islam and to engage in unprecedented public outreach.
Dozens of interfaith events have been held in mosques, embassies and government offices. Muslim charity drives have raised funds for damaged African American and Pakistani churches. Families have opened their homes to neighbors and colleagues to break the daily fast with evening feasts.
“We condemn all terrorism and we condemn ISIS, which is a twisted, horrific deviation from Islam,” said Rizwan Jaka, outreach director for ADAMS. He said the rise of the group — whose leaders vowed to make Ramadan a time of “calamity for the infidels” — had created “a lot of confusion” and abetted “anti-sharia hysteria” in American society.

I have an image. Are they insane at the Compost?
LIARS!!!
“Are they insane at the Compost?”
That’s like asking if the sun is hot.
Being anti-sharia is hysterical.
Got it.
I don’t hear them condemning Saudi Arabia’s intolerance of any other faith.
I don’t hear them condemning the death penalty for any non-muslim who’d dared enter their segregated cities of Mecca and Medina.
I don’t hear them condemning the death penalty decreed for any muslim who’d leave the faith.
Moderate means unlikely to go to jihad war themselves at this moment.
Like clockwork
Thanks!
How bout some pork rinds for your rammydan thingy?
The spread of Islam in America is foreign funded and federally subsidized.
The largest number of muslims in America are the first generation immigrant population.
If they want to prove their rejection of the Old World, cut the financial ties. No foreign funded mosques. No foreign funded colonization.

Well today’s events don’t exactly help their cause.
Yes I know that officially we have no idea why this Abdul azeez dude went berserk. I’m sure its racist to speculate that the shootings had anything to do with Islam.
“a lot of confusion” and abetted “anti-sharia hysteria”
I am not confused about shariah.
Nor am I hysterical.
I oppose shariah because it is bad.
Real bad.
Sanctioning slavery, miscogyny, beheading, severing limbs, stoning to death, pedophilia, the list goes on.
John Wesley 1703-1791 Founder of Methodsim
“It is not therefore strange, that ever since the religion of Mahomet appeared in the world, the espousers of it, particularly those under the Turkish emperor, have been as wolves and tigers to all other nations ; rending and tearing all that fell into their merciless paws, and grinding them with their iron teeth: that numberless cities are rased from the foundation, and only their name remaining : that many countries which were once as the garden of God, are. now a desolate wilderness; and that so many once numerous and powerful nations are vanished away from the earth ! Such was, and is at this day, the rage, the fury, the revenge, of these destroyers of humankind![73]”

Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached
What will the MSM do when they start shooting up Same-sex marriage ceremonies ?
Doesn’t the Quran say the muzzies are suppose to kill the infidels? As far as I understand, any non-mussie is an infidel.
Good points. Sharia law is incompatible with Western Civilization.
Not racists, intelligent.
Abdulazeez did not go berserk. He was merely acting out his muslim duty to kill infidels.
