Al Jazeera aired this report a few days ago on the Islamic Saudi Academy in Fairfax, Virginia (whose textbooks were revealed to be teaching hatred of non-Muslims).

It’s Barack Obama, and John McCain. Buh bye, Hillary.
Here’s a thread to discuss the Virginia Primary; as I write, Barack Obama is running away with it on the Democrat side, while John McCain is pretty even with Mike Huckabee....
Muslim American Society official Mahdi Bray has spoken to the Northern Virginia Daily about the video in which he’s seen cheering, as imprisoned Islamist leader Abdurrahman Alamoudi announces his support for Hamas and Hizballah: Gilbert, Athey criticize Kaine: Delegates - Ties too close.
