Here is yet another illustration of why we don’t see more sincere Muslim reformers. Those who buck the accepted line are all too often targeted for violence or, at very least, ostracized and vilified.
Note also that although Hamas-linked CAIR has condemned the Islamic State, no one has thrown acid on any CAIR leader’s car. Could supporters of the Islamic State know something we don’t?
“Acid Thrown on Car of Imam who Condemned Synagogue Attack,” by Nir Har-Zahav and Ari Yashar, Arutz Sheva, November 21, 2014 (thanks to Twostellas):
Anonymous vandals on Friday threw acid on the car of Sheikh Samir Assi who serves as the Imam of Akko, a mixed Jewish and Arab city located near Haifa.
After the horrific terrorist attack on a synagogue in Jerusalem’s Har Nof neighborhood this Tuesday – in which two Arab terrorists murdered four Jews at prayer with hatchets and guns and also killed a Druze police officer before themselves being shot dead – Assi initiated a call for interfaith tolerance.
The imam was one of the organizers of an interfaith meeting of religious leaders with the Jews who pray at the synagogue that came under attack.
Police estimate that the attack on Assi’s car was committed by Muslim extremists who opposed his gesture of solidarity, but note that all angles of investigation are being pursued.
“Jewish and Arab residents of the city of Akko proved that they know to honor each other and to live together amid mutual honor and understanding,” stated Akko Mayor Shimon Lankri.
The mayor continued “this incident is very troubling and there is nothing left but to hope that the radical sources will be taken care of with the full severity of the law.”
Despite Lankri’s assessment of coexistence in Akko, it has been documented that some Arab residents of the city have been flying flags of the Islamic State (ISIS) terrorist group, hinting at the extremist undertone lurking among the city’s Arab community.
Likewise Arab extremists have reportedly attacked Jewish homes in the city with rocks.
Charli Main says
“Jewish and Arab residents of the city of Akko proved that they know to honor each other and to live together amid mutual honor and understanding,” stated Akko Mayor Shimon Lankri.
The Arab residents of Akko are simply practicing the time honoured Muslim tradition of MURUNA.
MURUNA = Blending in with the enemy or surroundings to deceive Kaffirs.
Just as all those ” moderate” “peaceful” “tolerant” Muslims in Europe, Canada, Australia and the USA are practicing Muruna until they reach critical population mass. Then the Muruna mask will drop and their true Muslim faces will be revealed.

gives the brothers and sisters from the mosque (turning point; armory) a chance to snipe as well as develop information on those whom they choose to watch … time to develop a way to be victimized and activate jihad
Jay Boo says
But their Koran is not evil.
The Koran is just a toilet paper and ink enema.
It allows Muslims to expel their Allah filth onto the world without shame.
Koran reading Muslims even throw acid on their women’s faces in Allah’s name.
How low can a person be to act so low?
Muhammad their most perfect example told them so.

islam is wholly evil and cannot be reformed; since evil cannot be reformed–talk about beating a dead horse! The only possible way to reform islam would be for muslims to rewrite the unholy quran, and I don’t think that will *ever* happen.
islam be gone!

As an aside,
Maybe one day, years from now, a Catholic priest will join these two in a retirement home and they will all have a good chuckle reminiscing about the silly hats they used to wear.

Thanks, Jay, for my 2nd chuckle of the day —- in the comment section at another post.
Things we bi-pedal organisms top our noggins with ( to indicate role & rank ) are often a bit questionable aesthetically.
WHICH REMINDS ME — I could probably find the answer in a Wikipedia article, but let me pose it to readers here instead : how long is a typical turban when unwound ? Seriously ! ! ! But humorous answers will also be appreciated.

Silencing debate by name-calling.
Silencing debate by rioting.
Silencing debate by making stuff up.
Silencing debate by spinning jihad.
Silencing debate by beheading.
Silencing debate by death threats.
Silencing debate by theft and rape.
Silencing debate by cold shoulder.
Silencing debate by taqiyya.
Silencing debate by throwing acid.
Normative Islam, rather than an aberration.

They act the same as a violent gangster mob would do – with threats, intimidation, ostracism and murder.
There is a significant genetic/mental illness/retardation component to their attitudes and viciousness. Repeated generations of first cousin marriage causes a 2-10x higher rate of birth defects and learning deficits. In the UK one third of patients being treated for genetic disorders are Pakistani, even though they are only about 1.5% of the population. (Between 50 and 75% of this population marry first cousins). This treatment, which includes liver transplants in young children, is hugely expensive for the State and cannot cure the problems.
The British documentary series “Dispatches” examined this in 2010. Worth watching the full 43 minutes.

Great post, explains the obvious insane nature of radical Muslims , thanks!
dumbledoresarmy says
But how do you then explain the violence of those from a NON-inbred, non-violent non-Muslim background, who convert to Islam and then Go Jihad?
I don’t mean those who are violent *before* they join the Allah Gang.
I mean those weren’t violent or criminal, and who were *not* the product of cousin marriages, and then became Muslim and then Went Jihad. There are not a few of those, if you look around.

Demonic possession.

These Muslims are evil, murderous, lousy, no good rotten sobs.

Ah – those pesky Palestinian’s, never ceasing to amaze us with their variety of weapons: acid this time, hatches and knives before, pistols/rifles, home made bombs (IUD’s) and rockets! And of course rocks, lots of rocks. And there biggest ally is the newly ordained Emperor in America, the anointed one – Barry Soetora (aka Barack Obama). As long as Barry/Barack is around, the terrorist have a friend and Israel has an enemy!

I know it’s not a popular opinion on this site, but I really do feel bad for the muslims who are decent people (there are many, they aren’t all apart of some vast conspiracy) because no one, absolutely no one, stands up for them. America and the west, who is by default supposed to be against Nazi like ideologies, has fully embraced this insane cult and therefor everyone will stand up against the “Islamaphobe” but will shut down or ignore the oppressed or threatened muslim who wants to speak out against it. We have basically told Jews and any sane Muslims their lives are worthless and encourage the psychos.
Dave J says
I agree, I think there are a lot of men and women who were unfortunate enough to have been born into this “religion”, but who, by using their native intelligence, the power of love and the modern information network have realized that there are many dangerous and anti-social aspects of Islam.
The problem is that Islam was designed to be reformation-proof by making any questioning or criticism a capital offense. You can’t even just leave the cult without a death sentence. Islam has many slaves, including their own followers.
That’s why I think a global education/compassion/counselling/protection effort would at least be worth a try. The unresponsive hard core – kill every last one, before they kill us.
Salah says
@Mark and Dave J,
Thank you both for pointing this out.
Indeed, many Muslims are still Muslims out of fear and/or ignorance. We’re not doing enough to help them. We’re siding with the bad guys.
But things are hopefully changing:

You are of course right there are many people trapped within this cult, since the alternative is they and their families will be killed or raped. I just don’t see how we can free them without bloodshed. Then you have to factor in things like Taqiyya ect. I know my views are more on the extreme end of the spectrum here on this site, but we all know a big war is coming, it’s been going on for quite some time in some areas, ask the Nigerians for instance or others. I’m just of the opinion of wanting to strike first while we have the advantage strategically and tactically.
When you know someone is going to harm you and know that is their intent, despite what they say, would the wisest course of action not be to act first? I don’t believe in being passive when it comes to predators. The ideology of islam is as predatory as they come, and creates legions of predators. I am well versed on predator behavior, since I have had to defend myself quite often against predators in real life, though not for a long while. I’d rather not be a victim. Though I’m along for the ride like the rest of you, since I am a nobody that will effect nothing, all I can do is simply comment. I lack the abilities to do anything else as much as I wish otherwise. Those who think I am being extreme will in the future come to see I am correct. The time line varies since this war has been going on for 1400 years, but it’s pretty easy to see where things are going. I wish it wasn’t so, since no one wants to see what is coming.
Charlie Griffith says
This is why the Muslims resident in our America seem to be so diffident and may be shielded by that odious term, “moderate Muslim”.
Being butchered as an apostate is a pretty good scimitar to have being held over one’s head.
Doubtless, that scimitar becomes heavier the closer the diffident Muslim is to his local mosque.

……………………
Yup.
By the way, they had to go all the way to Acre to find an Imam who would condemn the Synagogue attacks at all. No Muslim cleric in Jerusalem would do so.
dagmiller says
By definition, a Muslim is one who embraces Islam. Islamists must adhere to and follow the Qur’an (the word of Allah) which dictates at great length that believers essentially lead lives of intolerance and violence. (This is what we’re seeing in the world today.) Those who call themselves Muslims but pick and chose which pieces of the Qur’an they follow are not true Muslims. There is no such thing as a “moderate” Muslim. I do not know what to call them.
