The Wahhabi Wallabies and the little Joeys in our midst
pakistan hasn't delivered to India the prisoners who were let go in exchange for passengers. Now US has asked for extradition of Sheik who was sought even before the brutal slaying of Pearl. It is worth watching to see what the paki govt. will do. America has the power to apply the squeeze with increasing tightness on the cojones of pakistan. Behind the closed doors America is putting the pressure, and on the outside an effluent praise is laid on Musharaff. The paki govt. let this guy, sheikh loose in pakistan. And see what he did! I wonder what pat Robertson would say.
Here are some excerpts:
A co-host, Lee Webb, asked Mr. Robertson why he thought Muslim immigrants would want to live in the United States "if they have such contempt for our foreign policy."
He went on to say that Islam "is not a peaceful religion that wants to coexist. They want to coexist until they can control, dominate and then, if need be, destroy."
Mr. Ibish said remarks like Mr. Robertson's and the Rev. Franklin Graham's comment to NBC last fall that Islam "is a very evil and wicked religion" are a "slightly warmed- over version of the hatred that led to the Holocaust."
Followers of Wahhabism believe that their faith should be spread around the world and that they have a special obligation to defend Islam, with violence if need be, in countries where it is already well established.
Dr. Lawrence, the professor of Islamic studies at Duke, guesses that about one-fourth of the two million
American Muslims who regularly attend mosques "fall under the Wahhabi umbrella." |
