I cant help wondering how much publicity this incident would have been broadcasted in America + Israel if a synagogue was attacked in Europe 6 August 2012 Last updated at 22:08 Share this pageEmail Print Share this page .Missouri mosque razed by fire, month after arson attack The mosque was burned down during Ramadan, a holy month of fasting and prayer A mosque has burned to the ground in the US state of Missouri, a month after an arson attack on the building. The fire was reported at about 03:30 (08:30 GMT) on Monday, but nobody was hurt, an FBI spokeswoman said. The building in the city of Joplin was completely destroyed by the fire, said a spokeswoman for the Jasper County Sheriff's Office. Authorities said they did not yet know the cause of the blaze, and that no-one had been arrested. Members of the local community said the mosque had been targeted several times since it was founded five years ago. On 4 July, an unidentified suspect was captured on surveillance video throwing a lit object on to the roof of the building. It is not known if arson was involved in Monday's fire. "Our sign has been burnt... Our mailbox was smashed multiple times. We had bullets shot at our sign," former mosque board member Navid Zaidi told AFP news agency. He added that more people have been attending services at the mosque because it is Ramadan, the Muslim holy month of fasting and prayer. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-19157863 Missouri mosque burned down in possible arson attack video Firefighters sift through the debris of a mosque that burned to the ground in the town of Joplin, Missouri. Police have not yet determined whether arson was involved, but a fire at the same location on 4 July was found to be arson. US authorities are offering a reward for information about an unknown suspect captured on CCTV throwing a lit object on top of the roof on 4 July
Last time it was members of the Christian Identity Movement, an American Christian group who gives promotions to members who commit acts of violence and murders against Muslims and Jews.
Old news. Might be a similar thread related to this. Otherwise, it's a reflection of the people of Missouri. Don't think of them as intolerant. Fear and anger drives these actions. Blame an unleashed American media.
We had a Mosque spring up here in my town a couple years back. No vandalism or such yet, but a new church was built directly across from it. Perhaps someday I'll drive by and witness a scene reminiscent of 'Gangs of New York'.
A mosque opened up in a town about 20 minutes south of Nashville (Murfreesboro). Terrible place to open a mosque. Murfreesboro is a (*)(*)(*)(*)hole. That's where you go to do drugs. Anyway, people tried to blow it up. Prolly saw it on the news.
This definitely got coverage over here, as did the Murfreesboro thing. Unfortunately, the rednecks get restless sometimes.
Not a synagogue, but have you heard about this incidents? http://www.jta.org/news/article/201...-after-second-anti-semitic-incident-in-a-week http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-18357812
If Allah wanted the Mosque spared HE would have prevented it. If Allah wants the Mosque rebuilt HE will provide for it. If the Mosque is rebuilt and then burned again it must be the will of Allah. If Allah wants the perpetrators captured HE will make it so.
We should not forget that it is quite common for Christian churches to be attacked in most muslim countries. http://www.csmonitor.com/World/Afri...-attacked-in-Nigeria-after-Boko-Haram-threats http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_o59AtDW-9Q&feature=player_embedded http://www.jihadwatch.org/2012/04/turkey-muslim-mobs-attacking-christian-clerics.html
