Imam Zaid Shakir: Responding to the Fort Hood Tragedy

The best and most eloquent and well-researched reponse from a Muslim that I have seen surrounding the events at Fort Hood.

    “…the US war machine is the single greatest threat to world peace…”

    I don’t buy that.

    • That’s fine, I kind of skimmed over that part because I may or may not agree with it, individual points here and there are debatable but I think on the whole the piece is the best I’ve seen offered by a Muslim.

        Just got back to this. I WISH I would remember to check the ‘notify me’ box more often.

        I was just watching West Wing (Tivo’d it). One of the topics was right up your alley. It was …. interesting, because it was liberals trying to make some changes in a presidential speech to appease conservatives, yet I got the feeling that if it were real, the conservatives would say ‘all or nothing, Jack….in fact, we want MORE than we said earlier.’

        Ah, well. Hope your holidays are going well.
