Could be a good start, but who knows for sure...

[freedom44]

Good. Seen hundreds of these condemnations from Muslims. Why is the media ignoring it?

[onyx]

Maybe.

[razorback-bert]

Some actions along with the words would help.

[D-fendr]

Can't hurt, but they should stay away from CAIR. And it was the Texas CAIR dude that got busted for terrorist related crimes..

[taxesareforever]

If CAIR is releasing this then I don't believe it for a minute.

[river rat]

Talk is cheap...
Lies are condoned in the Koran -- to protect Muslims from the Infidel.
Deception is a tool of the weak, to avoid detection....

Muslims in the Free World, must do a hell of a lot more than "condemn" terrorism, especially since they don't always clearly DEFINE terrorism.

Muslims must get a lot more active in squeezing out the puss that is the Jihadist, or the entire body will ultimately be destroyed.

I'll believe it when they start naming names.

[msnimje]

Don't be fooled by this group of terrorist in sheep's clothing.

Muhammad was the first Muslim terrorist/murderer/butcher/assassin. Can't make a silk purse from a sow's ear.

[UnbelievingScumOnTheOtherSide]

CONDEMN THIS!

THIS IS NOT FROM AL-QAEDA!

THIS IS JUST A BIT OF WHAT ALL MUSLIMS, INCLUDING SO-CALLED MODERATES, SIGN UP FOR WHEN THEY SAY THE BISMALLAH, "THERE IS NO GOD BUT ALLAH AND MUHAMMAD IS HIS PROPHET"!

KORAN [3.28] Let not the believers take the unbelievers for friends rather than believers; and whoever does this, he shall have nothing of (the guardianship of) Allah, but you should guard yourselves against them, guarding carefully; and Allah makes you cautious of (retribution from) Himself; and to Allah is the eventual coming.

KORAN [4.34] Men are the maintainers of women because Allah has made some of them to excel others and because they spend out of their property; the good women are therefore obedient, guarding the unseen as Allah has guarded; and (as to) those on whose part you fear desertion, admonish them, and leave them alone in the sleeping-places and beat them; then if they obey you, do not seek a way against them; surely Allah is High, Great.

KORAN [4.89] They desire that you should disbelieve as they have disbelieved, so that you might be (all) alike; therefore take not from among them friends until they fly (their homes) in Allah's way; but if they turn back, then seize them and kill them wherever you find them, and take not from among them a friend or a helper.

KORAN [9.29] Fight those who do not believe in Allah, nor in the latter day, nor do they prohibit what Allah and His Apostle have prohibited, nor follow the religion of truth, out of those who have been given the Book, until they pay the tax in acknowledgment of superiority and they are in a state of subjection.

KORAN [9.30] And the Jews say: Uzair [Ezra] is the son of Allah; and the Christians say: The Messiah is the son of Allah; these are the words of their mouths; they imitate the saying of those who disbelieved before; may Allah destroy them; how they are turned away!

HADITH Sahih Bukhari [4:52:176] Narrated 'Abdullah bin 'Umar:
Allah's Apostle said, "You (i.e. Muslims) will fight with the Jews till some of them will hide behind stones. The stones will (betray them) saying, 'O 'Abdullah (i.e. slave of Allah)! There is a Jew hiding behind me; so kill him.' "

HADITH Sahih Bukhari [4:52:177] Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah's Apostle said, "The Hour will not be established until you fight with the Jews, and the stone behind which a Jew will be hiding will say. "O Muslim! There is a Jew hiding behind me, so kill him."

HADITH Sahih Bukhari [4:56:791] Narrated 'Abdullah bin 'Umar:
I heard Allah's Apostle saying, "The Jews will fight with you, and you will be given victory over them so that a stone will say, 'O Muslim! There is a Jew behind me; kill him!' "

HADITH Sahih Muslim [41:6981] Ibn 'Umar reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying:
You will fight against the Jews and you will kill them until even a stone would say: Come here, Muslim, there is a Jew (hiding himself behind me); kill him.

HADITH Sahih Muslim [41:6982] Ubaidullah has reported this hadith with this chain of transmitters (and the Words are):
"There is a Jew behind me."

HADITH Sahih Muslim [41:6983] Abdullah b. 'Umar reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying:
You and the Jews would fight against one another until a stone would say: Muslim, here is a Jew behind me; come and kill him.

HADITH Sahih Muslim [41:6984] Abdullah b. 'Umar reported that Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) said:
The Jews will fight against you and you will gain victory over them until the stone would say: Muslim, here is a Jew behind me; kill him.

HADITH Sahih Muslim [41:6985] Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying:
The last hour would not come unless the Muslims will fight against the Jews and the Muslims would kill them until the Jews would hide themselves behind a stone or a tree and a stone or a tree would say: Muslim, or the servant of Allah, there is a Jew behind me; come and kill him; but the tree Gharqad would not say, for it is the tree of the Jews.

HADITH Sahih Bukhari [4:52:283] Narrated Abu Juhaifa:
I asked Ali, "Do you have the knowledge of any Divine Inspiration besides what is in Allah's Book?" 'Ali replied, "No, by Him Who splits the grain of corn and creates the soul. I don't think we have such knowledge, but we have the ability of understanding which Allah may endow a person with, so that he may understand the Qur'an, and we have what is written in this paper as well." I asked, "What is written in this paper?" He replied, "(The regulations of) blood-money, the freeing of captives, ******** and the judgment that no Muslim should be killed for killing an infidel." *********

HADITH Sunan Abu Dawud [14:2526] Narrated Anas ibn Malik:
The Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) said: Three things are the roots of faith: to refrain from (killing) a person who utters, "There is no god but Allah" and not to declare him unbeliever whatever sin he commits, and not to excommunicate him from Islam for his any action; and jihad will be performed continuously since the day Allah sent me as a prophet until the day the last member of my community will fight with the Dajjal (Antichrist). The tyranny of any tyrant and the justice of any just (ruler) will not invalidate it. One must have faith in Divine decree.

[Solamente]

Wow. Lip service way after the fact.

We can't go on demanding they "condemn" terrorism, they must participate in stopping it.

[Manic_Episode]

I will be impressed when they start denouncing islam.

[PGalt]

Words and deeds. Start killing terrorists.

[milemark]

Not buying it. I heard the audio on the radio, it has the typical "CAIR clause" 'we condemn all terrorism by all religeons' Yeah, all those other religeons practicing terrorism, right, sure.

[OKIEDOC]

I thought at first this was a good start but one needs only to read between the lines to know it's just a red hearing.

CAIRS campaign is called "Not in the Name of Islam"

Why didn't they instead say not in the name of America.

Or not in the name of whats decent and right.

Or not in the name of humanity.

No they could care less how many infidels get killed it's just they don't like all the bad publicity.

[Let's Roll]

Right, since it's a virtue to deceive infidels, it is just as likely a ploy to buy time.

[kittymyrib]

It's hard to believe that the Muslims in Houston didn't know that there was a terrorist-backing charity in Dallas funneling money to the jihadists. I don't trust them.

[tkathy]

I'll believe it when they denounce attacks on jews and Israel. Until Islam gets over their genocidal vitriol, they will continue breeding hate filled murderers.

[RightWhale]

have to deal with the stigmatization of being blamed for the heinous crimes

Yes, a few public service spots aren't going to substitute for each and every one of 1.2 billion individuals saying that the Terrorists are criminal murderers.

[RedWhiteBlue]

Houston's Islamic leaders joined together to applaud a religious ruling against terrorism and religious extremism. "We want to let all of Houston citizens know that we stand behind peace and justice and we are absolutely against any terrorism or any terrorism actions in this city." Saleh said.

Why are they denouncing terrorist actions in Houston? There haven't been any. What about New York City? What about London? What about Egypt, Iraq, Bali, etc.?
