The timing is horrible. The only reasoning I can think of is them trying to show something good that came out of this Mosque to damper any ill will directed its way. Pretty shitty logic.

Are members of your church receiving death threats? Then not the same.


Not relevant considering the WH visit was apparently unrelated to the beheading. So again, do all the other thousands of faith-based institutions who contributed after Moore also receive visits?

As for this former Imam who Breitbart slanders, he's a blonde dude, born and raised n Okkahoma. Does far more for his fellow citizens them that dead fat arse ever did:


That's incredibly hateful, and I'm not sure why you're dragging his skin color into this. It seems fairly irrelevant.

According to a strategy report by the UK government, senior UK government officials, including representatives of nine of the biggest Whitehall departments, consider Webb as a notable, moderate leader for mainstream Muslims along with the likes of Hamza Yusuf and Amr Khaled that should receive more support in providing leadership to Muslims in the West. [6] [7] [8] Webb was named one of the 500 Most Influential Muslims in the World by the Royal Islamic Strategic Studies Centre in 2010.[9] Webb's website, www.SuhaibWebb.com, was voted the best "Blog of the Year" by the 2009 Brass Crescent Awards [10] and his tweets won him the vote of "Best Muslim Tweeter" of 2010.[11]. In interview in the Boston Globe a RAND associate said, "The problem is not Imam Suhaib Webb. The Problem is there are not more Imams like him."




Here's the Wikipedia page with links about him:
quote:

According to FBI surveillance documents [21][22] Webb joined Al Qaeda operative Anwar Awlaki (killed by U.S drone strike in 2011) two days before 9/11 in headlining a fundraiser on behalf of H Rap Brown (aka Jamil al Amin), who had been accused of murdering two police officers in Georgia the year before. That night, Webb and Awlaki raised $100,000 to pay for Brown’s defense. Brown was found guilty of the murders. The Islamic Society of Boston Cultural Center (ISBCC) confirmed that Webb had in fact worked with Anwar Awlaki but claimed Webb did not know the full extent of al-Awlaki’s terrorist agenda when Webb was “working with him (Awlaki).



Sounds like a great guy.
