Difference Between Jews and Muslims

Remember that Great Neck incident of antisemitism?

When, in the face of an upcoming protest, Jewish and other officials pleaded for the Jews to ignore the self-described anti-Semitic and anti-gay group from Kansas that was coming to shout and scream?

My wife reported on it at her Shiloh Musings.

Well, Muslims respond differently, a bit, to a very similar situation:

Muslims Ask for Protection as Ramadan Approaches

Muslim leaders in Connecticut are asking police to ensure that they can worship without being harassed after a group was confronted on Friday.

Worshipers at the Masjid An-Noor mosque in Bridgeport were confronted by about a dozen members of Texas-based Operation Save America last Friday and the protesters left after about an hour.

"This is a war in America and we are taking it to the mosques around the country," Flip Benham, of Dallas, Texas, organizer of the protest, said, yelling at the worshipers with a bullhorn, the Connecticut Post reports.

Dhaouadi says he doesn't want to see worshipers caught in situations where things might escalate.

Operation Save America posted a response on its Web site calling articles about the protest “lies.”


"Things might escalate"?

Was that an intimation of a threat of violence by the Muslims?

Yes, this is very familiar here in UK. the muslimes are continually threatening, that is why things have got so bad. So unfortunately,as you have to fight fire with fire, we are taking a leaf out of their book.

Jews must lose the dhimmi attitude here in UK. The Chief Rabbi only makes complaints to his congregation: who the hell hears that?
