CAIR Official: Americans More Supportive of Attacks on Civilians

National vice chairman of Hamas-supporting radical Islamic front group CAIR, Ahmad Al-Akhras, says there’s nothing to worry about in that Pew survey because Islam is a Religion of Peace™, and besides, non-Muslim Americans are probably more likely to be terrorists than Muslims anyway.

His definition of “terrorism” includes the war on terror.

Ahmad Al-Akhras, a Columbus resident and national vice chairman of the Council on American-Islamic Relations, expressed concern over any support for terrorism, particularly among younger Muslims, but he called the number small.

“There is no justification in Islam for targeting civilians or supporting terrorism. Those who commit these actions are committing a sin,” he said. “Muslims believe that human life is sacred and that it is protected.”

Al-Akhras, who also is president of the Islamic Foundation of Central Ohio, said that Americans in general might be more supportive of targeted attacks on civilians, as part of the war on terror, than U.S. Muslims.

Al-Akhras has previously been featured at LGF when he physically assaulted LGF reader ‘ciaospirit’ at a CAIR-sponsored rally, and got away with it when Columbus authorities refused to follow up.

The video of the assault has been deleted from YouTube, of course.

 Frank says:

I think (Abbey Road is) the best engineered, best mastered rock and roll album ever produced...except that I take exception to stereo placement. -- From "Frank Zappa talks about Faves, Raves, and composers in their g raves" - some English publication, I think. (2 & 3 from the book, "The Lives and Times of Frank Zappa and the Mothers", some Brit thing again (got it at Blue Meanie Imports in San Diego fifteen years ago.)
