Didacus Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 (edited) Link from CBC: http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/suicide-bomber-killed-in-iraq-part-of-wider-jihadi-base-in-calgary-1.2663890 Calgary is earning a reputation as a breeding ground for jihadi fighters. Some content: His name is Salman Ashrafi, and when the Al-Qaeda splinter group ISIS (Islamic State of Iraq and Syria) released images of him last month following a double suicide bombing in Iraq in November that killed 46 people, he was celebrated in a martryrdom notice. emphasis my own... It would seem christinanity and islam have a different understanding of martyrdom... and... 'It is impossible for me to think the intelligence people do not know who is radicalizing Muslim youth. It is going on undercover; it is going on openly sometimes.'- Syed Soharwardy, Calgary imam and... "Salman had, within his personality, kind of … two sides to his personality," said the man, who did not want to be named because he is afraid of the consequences of speaking out. I just have to ask: ever notice the number of people 'afraid' to be identified when discussing islam? "He might have been around certain charismatic preachers in the community that might not have had his best interests in mind," he added. So who are these 'preachers'? Why do we let them spread hatred? I can draw malicious stares if I simply mention the rosary to my children in public, but how many openly spread hatred in Canada through the guise of a religion and are tolerated in fear of either reprisals of being tagged as 'racist'?

PhuturePriest Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Why is it that in Canada saying gay marriage is morally wrong will land you in jail, but teaching people to blow themselves and others up is not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You won't go to jail for saying gay marriage is wrong, you'll just get sued by the human rights commission. Teaching people to make bombs is certainly illegal.
