Theyre not extremists any more, nor are they radicals, nor observant. Guess what this AP reporter chooses to call them?

Muslim mobs burn Egyptian churches, 12 killed


CAIRO – Muslim mobs set two Cairo churches on fire overnight during sectarian clashes that left 12 dead and more than 200 injured. The deepening religious violence in military-ruled Egypt exacerbated an already chaotic and lawless transition to democracy.

Mobs of ultraconservative Muslims attacked the St. Menas church in the Cairo slum of Imbaba late Saturday following rumors that a Christian woman married to a Muslim man had been abducted. Local residents said a separate mob of youths armed with knives and machetes attacked the Virgin Mary church several blocks away with firebombs.

...

Islamic clerics denounced the violence, sounding alarm bells at the escalating tension during the transitional period.

...


But in the months that followed the toppling of Mubarak on Feb. 11, there has been a sharp rise in sectarian tensions, fueled in part by newly active ultraconservative Muslim movement, known as the Salafis.

The once quiescent Salafis have become more assertive post-revolution in trying to spread their ultraconservative version of an Islamic way of life. In particular, they have focused their wrath on Egypt's Christians, who make up 10 percent of the country's 80 million people.

Welcome back Willbe...

Do you think it makes me a racist, allowing my eyes to fall on the article?

Did you read this? It's how the Salafis characterize themselves, in word, purpose and action, and a direction denounced Islamic clerics.

I can't imagine how you figure any of that is about race, including your views. But the reporter told it like it was. If anything, the headline is misleading (fault of the editor), implying a broader group than the perpetrators includes.

I read that as a hijack of his own thread in reference to the ludicrous efforts to brand him a racist while I was "gone".

I posted the OP, so yes of course I read it... silly!

It seems extreme to me... for you to suggest that anyone merely discussing or questioning the continuing radicalization of Islam has to be a racist.

And no, the headline isnt at all misleading, its factual. Dont you just hate that?

No Lucy, I read the article, I am the one who posted it, remember?

And, as many Muslims view women as property the term "abducted" may be misleading in this instance

Lucy my dear, I also posted that the term "abducted" may not be an accurate term for what occurred, which is true

http://www.collarchat.com/fb.asp?m=3664780

It really sounds like it was more of an interfaith marriage, and why should that be forbidden

Status: offline 		round and around and around you didnt mention it before I asked, then just gave it a cursory look and dismissed it.
disapear up your own posterior and give us all a rest.
Why do you only go on just the report (as usual) instead of questioning what is behind a situation like I did.
Ive found a huge amount of information about it since I first asked.
I should have known better than to expect you to be able to do the same

Why not cut through the mindless bullshit Luce, and answer the question (if you dare) -

Do you really think they had reason to burn the two churches, even if there was an abduction?

Status: offline 		Funny how you never seem to answer mine, so in the spirit of  childishness, answer all mine you have missed, without changing goalposts or "re-framing" or editing of any kind. Until then be well aware....You have an inferiority complex - and it's fully justified.
