It seems unbelievable a mayor appoints at sensitive responsabilities,people he pretends ignoring the background and affiliation.It should be better assuming his choices even racists.Ignorance is worse than conviction.

Is it an oversight or racism or a political attempt to pander to a vocal group, given the % African- American in Chicago and that the NOI is primarily African-American. I am guessing the last two.

to this country. (Note I was very specific, I didn't say American Muslims). I'm pretty proud of our Muslims here, they are very civilized and respond to things that offend them in a very mature way. We saw this when the Mohammed cartoons came out.

Look forward to more of the same in the other cities.

They fear that they will show the love of Allah by rioting. They do that in prison. Saudi Arabia funds them money to act up. They want their own Black Muslim America.

it is in fact unbelievable. The Nation of Islam = Islamists = joining with WAR in funding the Oklahoma City bombing = WTC 1993 = Flight 800 shootdown 1996 = WTC 9/11 = ?. This results from the PC attitude of those in power in both major parties (or should I say the Republicrats/Democans?). Unlike others, I don't see Sharia Law coming to the USA, however, I believe we are in for a new and probably greater loss of lives when the next cell is directed to take action. Unfukcingbelievable!

While the NOI is extreme and more than a little strange. Linking them with terrorist acts in the US more than race riots in the previous decades is quite a stretch. Also, there is still no definitive proof Flight 800 was shot down. The FBI dredged the area where they found the wreckage and never found any missle fragments. The only 'proof ' of a possible missle shootdown is the fact that experts have testified that Flight 800 was within the range of a Stinger. Hardly conclusive. As for OKC and 9/11 it wouldn't have served the best interests of NOI to have been participants.

You are unaware of the exhaustive time-line of events, painstakingly put together and documented by Peter Lance, I take it. Sorry, friend, I think you mean well, but you don't know as much as you think you do: Please go to: http://peterlance.com/ and click on terrorism and run throuh parts 1 - 3 and see if that opens your mind a bit. Thank you.

Akiva, I believe they would like to kill us, however, I am not about to make Aliyah after seeing the Israelis vote in a PM who is about to throw 60,000 Jews out of their homes to appease the USA government and world opinion. That is shameful.

If you're using Peter Lance as your 'proof' you're not going to win too many arguments with people who aren't tin-foil hat conspiracty theorists. His research is about as credible as that which said that Blacks couldn't be fighter pilots in the Second World War because their brains weren't as developed as those of Whites. I'm not claiming that Peter Lance's research is racist, but will say that the only thing it is good for is lining bird cages.

Perhaps they should report the Truth behind the origins of the NOI: Its original doctrine declared that the "white race" was created in a lab by an evil Black scientist. The claim is that the experiment went out of control and the result was white domination and enslavement. The NOi is dedicated to the eradication of ALL non-Black Muslims. They are the Nazis of Black America and should be viewed in the context of their beliefs! Farakhan is a well-known Jew hater who threatened to kill a Black reporter after the reporter wrote the ruth about Jessie Jackson's "hymie" comments torpedoing Jackson's attempts at running for office. They are nothing more than well-dresed (sic) street thugs in the guise of a religious movement. It is not surprising that most o their members are serving prison time for violent felonies!
