#2 "The first thing we are going to do is cancel the Friday prayers of tomorrow as a protest against this raid," al-Saghir said. "There are other procedures which we don't mention to media."

Those "other procedures" involve kidnapping, torture, and murder.

#4 Rather than canceling one prayer service today as a protest, why not cancel all prayer services forever. That would teach us.

Even better, hit the self destruct button.

#8 Three Russian PKC machine guns and 80 assault rifles were seized

Well I guess now we know why the imam was "angered".
He's lucky they didn't march him out front and put a bullet in his head...

#9 Muhammad's son-in-law, Ali was rumored to have been Muhammad's lover. Any conversion this animal may have done was more that likely at the edge of a sword.

So how about raiding the Mosques in the USA. Can't do that, hell the FBI informs CAIR before they go in. Dhimmis.

Anyways some fuvking good news. What they should have done is set a timer on one of the IEDs and left the building. Moon Goddess go BOOM!
