Why doesn’t this Muslim cleric, who has dedicated his life to understanding and teaching the Qur’an and Sunnah, see what Barack Obama and David Cameron and Joe Biden and so many other non-Muslims see so clearly, that the Islamic State has nothing to do with Islam?
“Muslim cleric in fresh July 2010 terror charges,” by Andante Okanya, New Vision, March 18, 2015 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
Muslim cleric Sheikh Ismael Kalule, in and out of prison on charges of purported terrorism, has again been charged afresh over the July 11, 2010 twin terror bombings of Lugogo and Ethiopian Village in Kampala.
At the High Court in Kampala on Tuesday, state prosecution in the terror case presented the amended indictment report to include Kalule as part of the 13 accused.
A total of 76 people perished in the two incidents that occurred at Kyadondo Rugby Club and the Ethiopian Village Restaurant.
Revelers were watching the World Cup final game between Spain and Holland at the tournament played in South Africa.
The third bomb that had been planted at the Makindye House on the same day was defused before it exploded.
Initially in 2010, Dr. Kalule, 44, was one of the suspects charged over the twin bombings. But in September 2011, he was freed after the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) withdrew the charges against him.
However, last year on April 30 Kalule was arrested from his home in the city suburb of Kiwatule. He was purportedly found in possession of literature on how to manufacture bombs.
Kalule was charged with terrorism, and this year on January 28, he was committed for trial in relation to the twin bombings.
On conviction, the maximum penalty of terrorism is death. However, this is subject to the decision of the trial judge.
The prosecutors are principal state attorney Lino Anguzu and senior principal state attorney Joan Kagezi.
The 12 other accused are Hussein Hassan Agad, Idris Magondu, Isa Ahamed Luyima, Hassan Haruna Luyima, Abubakari Batematyo, Yahya Suleiman Mbuthia.
Also included are Habib Suleiman Njoroge, Omar Awadh Omar, Mohammad Hamid Sulaiman, Seleman Hijar Nyamandondo, Mohammad Ali Mohammad, and Muzafar Luyima….

Why do so many politicians claim to know Islam better than the Islamic professors at Al Azhar University, the world’s leading authority on Islam.
Al Azhar’s leading scholars have not proclaimed that ‘ISIS is un-Islamic’ nor that ‘ISIS has NOTHING to do with Islam’.
Cameron, Obama, Biden, John Brennan…even Manual Valls…present themselves as defenders of ‘real Islam’ without telling anyone what that is or HOW THEY DISCOVERED THE TRUTH ABOUT ISLAM!
Since no leading Muslim scholar has explained how ISIS is un-Islamic (…though some have declared that ISIS hasn’t the POLITICIAL AUTHORITY to do what they do).
NO ONE has said the tactics and punishment of ISIS are un-Islamic.
They are complaining that ISIS on its own authority PROCLAIMED the caliphate and then started fighting whoever didn’t accept it. THAT’S WHAT A SCORE OF CALIPHATES DID IN THE PAST…including Mohammed himself.

All I can think is that some of the West read a translated version (that omits or whitewashes the really gory bits) while true muslims read the qur’an in pure, classic Arabic and so, like this esteemed dr know exactly what it says.

Poor thing… Yet another example of an uneducated moozie. He only has a doctorate. 😉

I don’t have much faith in Uganda’s justice system, corruption is rife there. He can buy his way out

Dear President Obama,
If you had a son, would he look like Sheikh Ismael Kalule?
If not, why not?
Discuss.
