#5  It appears that the climate in Russia is becoming more hostile to Muslims, both at a street level and higher up in the echelons of power.

I wonder why?

#4  Good catch, Sea -- it's also the reason for all the loon "DaVinci Code" crap the press is pushing, as well as the push on the apocryphal "Gospel of Judas".

#3  Good catch. I hadn't made the connection, but I'm sure you are right.

#2  ...somewhere in the global MSM wisdom must have decided that this is the month...

2b, what makes this month different from all the other months?

That's right...it's Easter, the commemoration of Christ's death and resurrection. And it's Passover, the commemoration of God's special relationship with his Chosen People.

I'm not surprised these stories are coming out now, though I didn't make the connection 'til just now.

#1  I got about 3/4 of the way through this and decided this is bullshit. Somebody somewhere in the global MSM wisdom must have decided that this is the month to seek out any and every Muslim, world-wide, who has been given a dirty look at NASCAR or subject to the tauntings of a mob. And this, apparently, was the best they could do.

Let's review shall we? A reporter gets attacked on the subway. What a great story!! Wasn't it lucky he was one of the few Muslims in the country to encounter an attack. A another brave guy who is sheltering children coming out dance lessons in a cultural center [nice touch, but they forgot the puppies and baby ducks] is attacked by a zenophobic mob of 20 "youths" that "a witness" confirmed was shouting,
Russia for Russians". Ok, maybe so. Chalk one up for the "big search". Another guy, with a swastica on his gun kills one Muslim and "another person", (curiously they don't mention if he's a Muslim) on the same night. Unlike our Muslim covert DC snipers, this guy wasn't nearly as good, but apparently, far more indicative of a deep seated problem. And then some people didn't want a mosque in their city and the leader of racist slogans against them resigned "in surprise". All well, too bad about the resignation, but again, it was the best they had to prove the fear and terror that Muslims live in world-wide.

It's so funny to me. You could find, on a daily basis, Christians and Jews who are gang raped, murdered, slaughtered in large numbers, imprisioned, blown up or threatened, on a daily basis, by Muslims in the Muslim world but the global mainstream media can't see it, doesn't report it and doesn't think it's really a problem. But they search the NASCAR, the nation and Russia and come up with these weak events and breatlessly announce that the pogroms have begun.

Here's a tip to any Muslim readers out there. Your biggest threat to your lives is Muslims from another sect. Our biggest threat - is you.
