Chicago Mosque Firebombed

UPDATE: THIS INFORMATION ON THE MOSQUE FIREBOMBING STORY IS WRONG. LATER REPORTING HAS DETERMINED THAT IT WAS A JEWISH SYNAGOGUE THAT WAS ATTACKED, NOT A MOSQUE.

HERE IS AN UPDATED LINK: http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/chi-temple-arsondec30,0,1146469.story

H/T: JILL

In a story just in from the Jerusalem Post, we learn that a molotov cocktail was chucked at a mosque in Chicago today, catching it on fire, but causing little damage.

I wonder what in the world it was about Islam that could have ticked Joe Six-Pack off enough to try to torch the place?

Perhaps the fire-bomber doesn't share Islam's demonstrated commitment to love, mercy, justice and peace.

Go figure.

At least it wasn't Bubba...

PackSmack,

"... I wonder what in the world it was about Islam that could have ticked Joe Six-Pack off enough to try to torch the place? ..."

Perhaps Joe Six-Pack has been reading your hate filled blog. Your calls for violence against law biding citizens and their property can be seen as partially responsible for resulting criminal behavior.

Perhaps the fire-bomber doesn't share Christianity's demonstrated commitment to love, mercy, justice and peace.

Go figure.

Jill,

Thanks for the clarification on the story. Looks like early reports from the Jerusalem Post had it, um, a little wrong.

So that means the attackers were Muslims. Spreading the joy, I guess.

Ema,

I don't believe that you are Muslim, Catholic and Jewish; if that is your attempt at being 'inclusive,' it doesn't add up to many of your comments. I also don't believe that you are a lesbian. You are either a Muslim or just a typical lib.

Your comment on this, however, is quite telling...when I asked you if Islam is evil, your response was: "No."

Not sure we will ever see eye to eye on much if that is the distorted/broken grid that you are filtering things through. Until you are willing to let go of your blindness, you will never see.

PackSmack,

"... we will ever see eye to eye on much ..." as long as you and your blog continue to call for wholesale killings of me and other people who have done you no harm.

______-

Why do you hate USA?

I am a Muslim, Jew and Catholic. I was born in USA. I have served in military service. I am a lesbian. I am a liberal.

You are so wrong on oh so many levels. My rights _YOU_ do not take away.

"There is no proposal to kill fellow citizens. Muslims can not be citizens because their alliegence is to Ummah al Islamiyya. ..."

'... We can not have security while there is an enemy fifth column on our soil. This is why it is necessary to deport Muslims and prevent their re-entry."

Again Joseph Goebbels and Co must be singing hosanna; USA is following in their footsteps.
