ISAIAH 54:17
But in that coming day no weapon turned against you will succeed. You will silence every voice raised up to accuse you. These benefits are enjoyed by the servants of the Lord; their vindication will come from me. I, the Lord, have spoken!
FATHER GOD,
We stand upon YOUR Promise on behalf of our nation and AFA. In YOU we put our trust.
In JESUS’ Name we pray. Amen.
I'll bet they have!
Tar, feathers, rail. The cure for tyrants.
Amen.
Until they go after that

God is discriminatory - He distinguishes good from evil.
File an immediate lawsuit demanding this guy apply the same standard to all Muslim Charities. Make the issue into one of his discriminating against Muslims.
