Sticking It To The Flying Imams

Perhaps we can just lead up to Christmas by sticking it to these ridiculous Flying Imams on a daily basis.

On that note, read this great piece by Mary Grabar at Townhall.


December 24: The Day of Christian Pray-Ins at Airports

Funny, how liberals rush to the support of the devout—as long as they’re not Christian or Jewish.

That was the response when six imams were led away recently after displaying suspicious activity at the Minneapolis-St. Paul airport, activity which included praying loudly, and twice at sundown--at the gate and on the plane--against Muslim custom. The Associated Press reported on December 1 that such “ugly incidents” prompt “spontaneous expressions of support. Such as the e-mail a Minneapolis woman sent to CAIR after the imams were taken off their flight.” In the e-mail the woman offered a ride to two or three of the imams temporarily stranded at the airport: “My car is small, but at least some of our hearts in this land of the free are large.”

I can assure you that there are many Christians praying at airports. We, however, don’t make a display of it in order to draw false attention to our persecuted status. The imams, some of whom have been linked to terrorist organizations, however, it turns out were doing even more than that. It now appears that the praying and other suspicious activity--such as invoking “bin Laden,” and condemning America in Arabic, according to the police report--may have been a dry-run; some believe that it was a deliberate test of Americans’ “openness.” (via www.michellemalkin.com)
