As I noted here, the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) used this incident to expatiate about the alleged rise in violence against mosques and Muslims. Will Hamas-linked CAIR now retract and apologize? And as you can see below, Bloomberg held a press conference about this. Will he, also, now retract and apologize?
Don't hold your breath on either count. But what Pamela Geller says is apt: "So the media mosque meme was patently untrue, and that schmuck Bloomberg looks the fool yet again after holding press conferences against 'hate crime' before he knew what, who and why. And Hamas-tied CAIR was on the radio this morning, WBAI, lying again, blaming me and other bloggers for inciting this hatred of Muslims. Vile jihadists will say anything and do anything."
"Man confesses to bombing NY mosque," from Reuters, January 4 (thanks to Pamela Geller):
A New York City man faces arson and bias charges after confessing to a series of Molotov cocktail attacks that hit a mosque and a Hindu place of worship and unsettled civic leaders concerned the actions might portend violent religious bigotry.The suspect, who has not been identified by name, is a 40-year-old unemployed tow-truck driver who appeared to have been motivated by personal grudges, said a law enforcement familiar with the investigation who was speaking on condition of anonymity.
The suspect, who is originally from Guyana and lives in the Jamaica section of Queens where four of the attacks took place, also made "broadly anti-Muslim statements" during questioning, the official said.
But apparently they centered around his not being allowed to use the bathroom at the mosque:
He chose the mosque after being refused access to the facility's bathroom, and he mistook one of the private residences as the home of a "crack dealer" with whom he had a dispute, the official said.Another of the targets was a private residence where Hindu services were held, but that may have been a coincidence. The suspect had a years-old dispute with someone who may not live there anymore, the official said....
"The individual is implicating himself in each of the five firebombing cases, citing personal grievances with each location," said police spokesman Paul Browne.
The arson attacks drew condemnation from religious and civic leaders of various backgrounds who joined New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg and Police Commissioner Ray Kelly for a news conference before the confession was reported.
"Fear mongering about Islam and other American minorities have ripped this country apart... We are all affected when this hate explodes," said Cyrus McGoldrick of the New York chapter of the [Hamas-linked] Council on American-Islamic Relations, a Muslim civil rights group.
I'll be right here waiting for McGoldrick to recant his false claims and apologize to those who are fighting for freedom against Islamization.
One of the firebombs hit the mosque entrance at the Imam al-Khoei Foundation, a Shiite organization in the New York City borough of Queens while some 75 to 80 people were inside....The suspect's grievances with the convenience store may have started on Dec. 27 when a clerk confronted a man thought to have being trying to steal a Starbucks Frappuccino, police said.
"When they were pushing him out of the store, he said words to the effect of, 'We're going to get even. We're going to get back at you,'" Kelly said before the confession was reported....
This probably not rocket science, but the primary target for CAIR is not the mayor, nor even the somewhat dim-witted interfaith partners that CAIR and the other Muslim politiucal interest groups like to congregate around. The primary target for CAIR is the majority of Muslims in the US who are citizens, have been here for an appreciable time, and who avoid political Islamist organizations.
If CAIR can scare the bejezzus out of them and convince them they will be beaten, shot at, and thrown into prison without a politial group like CAIR to represent them, CAIR will boost its own membership.
"Fear mongering about Islam and other American minorities have ripped this country apart... We are all affected when this hate explodes," said Cyrus McGoldrick of CAIR
And yet FBI statistics show attacks on Jews occur almost 10-1 over Muslims in America. Still I have no fear of Jews attacking America. But there is clear justification and concern when it comes to violence from Muslims and from the stealth jihad of the sharia.
There have been numerous attacks on Americans by Muslims.
Here is a list of attacks dating back nearly 40 years:

dear ronald,
i have written on numerous threads, that as far i am concerned, it is totally irrelevant what the enemy is saying/doing...
of course, 'the enemy' being islam and any organization that is representing it, trying to promote it, and of course, any and all muslim countries.
what **is** important is not what they do/say (honestly. can you not 'predict' the headlines in tomorrow's news?)
what **is** important is what are we going to do about it?
of course, this peaceful discourse @ jw and other similarly sane sites that promote the truth, is a push in the right direction.
nonetheless, except for the few regular morons (defender of islam for example)still allowed to post here we are preaching to the choir.
our efforts are being squashed by a an army of useful idiots who pretend to be journalists and 'intelligentsia'..
these traitors are the same ones that allowed this abomination to set foot in the w.h.
said abomination, has vowed to take sides with islam and never to be against it...
indeed, he was taught for 20 years to say 'god damn amerika!' and not 'god bless america'...
it is a fairly intertwined scenario:
husein zero MUST go, and after the wholesale change of the traitors in power, our efforts should start to bear fruit.
tuges do not generally opplogize. so I say no.

Is CAIR trying to ban 'Bare Naked Islam' site?:
http://barenakedislam.wordpress.com/2011/12/30/bare-naked-islam-is-back-sort-of/
At the risk of sounding unduly toilet-minded. .It'd be interesting to know the circumstances surrounding his fall-out with the mosque. .was he just passing by in desperate rush, or was he a regular ?
Regardless of the apparent personal nature of the attacks from this deranged person, the NYPD under the tutelage of Bloomberg no doubt, saw fit to charge him with "five counts of possessing an explosive, four counts of arson and one count of arson as a hate crime for allegedly making anti-Muslim statements in reference to the Imam Al-Khoei Islamic Center."
Disgraceful.

Huh?
CAIR is nuts. They'll never apologize.
david you crack me up!

Muslims are lyers. Because it is the essence of their religion. Period. Funny thing is: the whole Muslim religion is a big ugly lie and we are dealing with it in this country in the 21st century. It is really amazing.
Became angry because he couldn't use the bathroom in a mosque? That's real islamophobia.
Hmmmm, since the Gyanese are a Monority group protected by the hate-laws Blooberg loves to drag out to protect Muslims....some people may thin k that Mr.Hooper is gulty or inciting hatred aginst an identifiable Group after his tirade to label the attack as islamophobic as if to hve knows by his ESP that the fire-bombing was by a white/american/christian/racist .
If just one Gyanese people is attack from this day on , then Robert should apply the same standards for guilt as CAIR tried when the Norway killer was somehow incited by JihadWatch.
Hooper needs to be hoisted on his own petard and be asked if attacks on Gyanese people in the USA shold be blamed on him and CAIR's rush to label it islamophobic prior to the whole story coming out.
canada had many bogus Mosque vandalism claims just to deflect the mass murders by muslims outside of canada, and one case where a Muslim female had her house Fire-Bombed was hijacked by CAIR-canada to further their Shariah Law crusades to bring about peace. CAIR failed to tell the public that the muslims house was fire-bombed after she got threats from the nubar Imam that sued Ezra Levant out in Calgary Alb because she a other females file a H7uman Rights complaint for being treated liek Sub-Humans in the Imam's own Mosque.
But that didn't stop CAIR-canada from spreading hatred towards non-muslims in canada or inciting more Jihad-Cell groups bent on Terrorism in Canada. No Sir.....the Lawyers and Spin-Doctor's at CAIR know how to get a Headline out in public even when it's built from a big lie wrapped with a thin veneer of truth that a house was fire-bombed by soemone, BUT , the bombers were tied to a Sharaih Law mosque and radical/Jihadists Imam that wanted to punish them for complaining to get their Roghts in canada.
Check out the latest Michael Coren interview with the EDL head Tommy , Tommy exposes how the Police arrested the 26 criminals tied to the 26 vandalism and Fire-bombings in the U.K. where the vandals Sprayed the EDL name on every site as a Tag.
Tommy tells us how the 26 now in jail were all Muslims that did it, but the MSM and Police would only report that the 26 arrested and jailed had noting to do with the EDL .
It's now become a joke that in canada when the MSM reports an attack on jews or a violent peace-march where they sterilize the names or coulours, it's implied to be Muslims or brown men named Muhammed. it is pretty sad that 4 females are now dead for NOT wearing the Hijab, yet the Toronto Police as proud that they now have the Hijab as part of their Uniform to show Tolerance and Diversity.
The media rushed in to cover the Hijab for Cops as a Faith-based item for muslims, but the same media refused to label the Honour Killings and islaimc when the females were killed for NOt wanting to wear the Hijab. The MSM seems to suck-n-blow at the same time , one minute the Hijab is islamic andm ust be worn according to the Quran, then 4 dead females show-up after being drowned because of the Hijab issue, and viola....the Hijab had nothing to do with it because the Feminists hijacked it as a Domestic-Violence issue.
BTW
CAIR-canada got so political with their rantings and crusades to tell muslims who to vote for or what Laws they should protest, that I mounted a personal campaign to demand they lose their Charity-satus for Zakat because they broke the Laws as they promoted islam and Shariah law with Tax dollars.
I'm sure people were watching because CAIR-canada now posts a notice that donation are NOT Tax deductible .
CAIR can now spew what they want because i have the right to research their calims and prove them wrong, or spot a hate-crime when CAIR attacks a minority group or incited Terrorism v ia bogus islamophobia acts to fuel muslim youth into a rage and thus...turn to Jihad.
Glad ya' got a laugh out of it, phoenix.
Lately, I've been seeing the absurd, comical side of the "Islam" issue.
It's therapy, for me...
LOL!!
