What’s wrong with CNN? [updated]
I have problems with CNN’s news coverage, but occasionally they do some things that really bother me. On American Morning, there was a story (between 9:50 AM and 10:00 AM) about the US Postal Service pulling it’s sponsorship of Lance Armstrong because an audit revealed they weren’t getting enough of a return on the investment. Jack Cafferty (sp?) says it’s because USPS is going to spend more time on “those Islamic stamp.” What stamps? What a non-sequitur! Was he making a cheap and acceptable shot at Muslims? Then he’s doing a segment where he solicits feedback on a topic, in…
The Wahhabi Movement Hates the Prophet (PBUH)
The Wahhabis are apparently putting toilets over where the Prophet (PBUH) lived. Clearly what the Qur’an meant when it said God and the angels praise him (33:56). In 1990, sympathizers tipped him off that the site thought to contain the foundations of the Meccan house of Muhammad and Khadija was to be paved over. He rushed to the site, even threatening to put his young son in the bulldozer’s path. He used his contacts to win permission for a last-minute archaeological dig. It lasted 40 days, and he says his team of volunteers uncovered stone foundations that appeared to be…
Boston beats New York
What a headline! This whole A-Rod trade has got Boston in an uproar, so I thought I’d give them a win over New York (namely me as the officially designated representative of the state.) I was working on a post about inclusion in the state, one which will probably still appear in some form, when today’s Boston Globe ran this op-ed about the French and the Bay Staters.

Thanks for posting that, bro. I can’t agree more, too. I had a very good friend who was a Pakistani Christian in the town I grew up in, and I remember him telling me some of the horrors he and his family had to live through just for being Christian. If we Muslims in thw West find it so easy to bemoan the religious intolerance we face in non-Muslim countries, then this also necessitates that we condemn just as strongly the same treatment by those who share our religion. 4 sure, 4 sure.
Thanks again, I’ll pass this one along.

Bro, thanks for the heads-up on the article. I am sure there are a lot of other Muslims who feel the same way too. Islam is simple. I am just amazed at how some Muslims feel that it is okay to harm others in the name of Islam when Islam has nothing to do with their callous acts.
I will also pass the article along.
