"Clean Russia of pseudo-Islamic agents provocateurs," Russian Muslim leaders call the federal President and administrative bodies in a statement issued by today's conference, "Islam vs. Terrorism". The conferees resolutely denounce manifestations of terrorism and extremism as they appeal to President Vladimir Putin and federal agencies to stop spiritual aggression against Russia's public, which discredits Islam. Aggressive preachers have been penetrating Russia en masse within recent years. Especially numerous in the North Caucasus, they are proclaiming holy war on infidels--that is all who do not share Wahhabi premises. Self-styled jihad fighters are using holy Muslim symbolism to sow death and discord in Russia with ample money aid from without, says the statement.
Nice little gesture of self-preservation there. American Muslims might do well to emulate it. |
