7/7     About time American Muslims made statements like this:
        http://www.ing.org/latestnews/default.asp?num=23
        \_ From the same site: "(San Francisco Bay Area, 9/11/01) - Joining
           Muslims around the country, the San Francisco Bay Area based Islamic
           Networks Group is appalled by and strongly condemns the terrorist
           attacks in New York and Washington."  The American Muslim community
           is simply not the problem.  As Thomas Friedman pointed out yesterday,
           however, we're still waiting for a fatwa from any international
           muslim leader condemning Bin Laden.
           \_ Further proof that even a broken clock (i.e., Friedman) can be
              right twice a day.

5/4     So, Bin Laden, star of Fox News, dies at 51.  But really the
        question is, when are we declaring war on pakistan for
        1. harboring a known terrorist
        2. taking our money ($ billions) for "antiterror" operations?
        Clearly we got scammed here.

1/4     Why the fascination with blowing up airplanes? Airports have tight
        security. It doesn't seem worth it. It's far easier to derail a
        train or set off explosives in a crowded place like a theater or
        sporting event. As many or more people will be killed and it will
        still make the news. I don't get why all of our security, and
        apprently much of the terrorist's resources, is focused on airplanes.

ING CONDEMNS TERROR ATTACKS IN LONDON (San Francisco Bay Area, 7/07/05) - Joining Muslims around the country an d the world, the San Francisco Bay Area based Islamic Networks Group con demns the terrorist attacks in London today. As Muslims, we utterly depl ore these heinous and horrific acts that contradict all laws of Islam an d civilization. To those who would commit such acts in the name of Islam , we say, that they are distorting and defaming a religion whose very na me comes from the word "peace", and which holds the highest regard for h uman life. As the Qur'an states: "Whoever takes an innocent life, it is as if he has killed all of humanity." The Prophet of Islam condemned the targeting of civilians, and even infrastructure; there is no precedent in Islamic law or history for such a barbaric act. Regardless of whom the perpetrators may have been, we hope for their quic k apprehension and the swift application of justice. We offer our sincere and heartfelt condolences to the families of the vic tims of those who were killed or injured. We also urge the media to exercise restraint, and to act responsibly when reporting on these terrorist attacks. Until the perpetrators are brough t to justice, all media reports should be accurate, restrained and sensi tive. Contact: (408) 393-8202 Mobile, or (408) 296-7312 Office ING is an apolitical, non-partisan educational institution with affiliate s across the country. We provide presentations relating to Islam and Mus lims. In the course of our presentations and educational programs, we are frequ ently asked questions about Islam and its view on terrorism.
