While this might be regarded as being mandated by a fait-accompli, this action warrants WIDE distribution...
Quote: | Calif. imam fired for alleged bin Laden support
Ahmed held on immigration charges as FBI probes Lodi mosque
The Associated Press
Updated: 8:32 a.m. ET June 29, 2005
LODI, Calif. - A mosque has fired a religious leader accused of speaking out against the United States and supporting Osama bin Laden in the wake of the 2001 terrorist attacks.
Shabbir Ahmed, 39, is one of two imams detained on immigration charges as part of an FBI investigation into alleged terror activities in the Islamic community in Lodi, a wine-growing region about 30 miles south of Sacramento.
The mosque’s board of directors unanimously voted to fire Ahmed in a special session Sunday night, said Mohammed Shoaib, president of Lodi Muslim Mosque.
“We don’t want that kind of person who has spoken against the United States,” Shoaib said.

About time the Muslims in the U.S. start reclaiming thier religion. I was starting to think that they silently support the jihad movement. _________________ Defender of the honor of those in harms way keeping us out of harms way.

I do not recall seeing a single article published in a major newspaper wriiten by a Muslim leader denouncing the jihad movement. _________________ Defender of the honor of those in harms way keeping us out of harms way.

Once we turn security over to the Iraqi army jihad terrorists will go out and find new infidels to attack. _________________ Defender of the honor of those in harms way keeping us out of harms way.

Admin note: I have deleted two posts in this thread as off-topic. Please keep to the topic subject or I'll be compelled to lock this thread.
While it is recognized that there is a wide range of personal opinion as to the tenets and practice (or the corruption of same) of religious beliefs, generalized comments denigrating those beliefs or adherents of that religion are inappropriate for this forum and will not be tolerated here.
Please bear in mind that Geedunk is offered as an adjunct to the primary function of this forum, the SVPT exposure of John Kerry's unfitness for command, and as a courtesy to the members of this forum. It is NOT to be used to indiscriminately promote views that are known to be both divisive and contentious.
Thanks in advance for your cooperation.
