Another Day, Another Flying Imam Story

LGF has the details.

Airport officials said Friday they will consider setting aside a private area for prayer and meditation at the request of imams concerned about the removal of six Muslim clerics from a US Airways flight last week.

Steve Wareham, director of Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport, said other airports have “meditation rooms” used for prayers or by passengers who simply need quiet time.

A group of Somali clerics met with airport officials Friday and said they would attract less attention if they had a private area for prayer. Devout Muslims pray five times daily, facing the holy city of Mecca.

I wonder if you walk by and snicker at them whether there will be any seething.

    For such a great religion, what good has come of it? Bush and Rice need to get off of this great religion stuff. Islam is a scourge to humanity. Before Islam, the Arabic world was prosperous. Now, it's a den of death and mayham.

    Not only that, the Arabs pretty much got along with their neighbors (including the JOOOOOOS!)
