| Pigs head dumped outside British Mosque. Predictable veiled threat follows |
| 2006-09-29 |
| Police have revealed they were investigating the dumping of a pig's head outside a mosque on the first full day of the Islamic holy month of Ramadan. The head was found outside the Jamia Mosque in Newport, southeast Wales, on Saturday. The Koran strictly forbids Muslims to eat pork. "We treat all incidents of hate crime seriously and are pursuing a number of lines of inquiry to identify the offender," said Gwent Police Superintendent Simon Prince on Friday. ever notice how some events are IMMEDIATELY ruled hate crimes...and others are not? Nobody at the mosque was available for comment but Sheikh Mohammad Thair Ullah, the chairman of the nearby Shah Poran Bangladeshi Jame Mosque, branded the incident "disgusting" and provocative. and muslims are INCREDIBLY easily provoked and now for the requisite, implicit threat: "There is a good and bad in every community and I believe we have some young fanatics who could take this the wrong way," he said. I'm not sayin' it's GONNA happen, but ya never know . . . "It is a very sensitive time for Muslims and since 9/11 we are facing a lot of problems which are unwanted. "Muslims are peace-loving people which has been interpreted wrongly to show that we are all terrorists and criminals. That is the impression given by the world's media and politicians which is totally wrong." So DO something about it. Take to the streets to protest and scream "NOT IN OUR NAME" publicly. Start shaming those in your community who support terror in ANY form. Identify the perpetrators and share their names publicly. Begin a dialogue in your community to understand how islam promotes such behavior, root it out and tell the rest of the world of your progress. Stop blaming others (the west, Jews, etc) for your inadequacies, and ridicule those in your communities who do so. Call me crazy, but I think these are some things they could do that would work....yet I see NONE of this. Two British mosques were hit by arson attacks in August following the foiling of an alleged plot to blow up US-bound aircraft leaving Britain. |
