Muslim Groups Urge Substantive Talks With Bush
2003-11-13
EFL & Buttloads of Fun!
President Bush is willing to pose for pictures with American Muslims and publicly praise Islam as a religion of peace, but developing a substantive relationship with the Bush administration will take much more work and a lot less murder and mayhem, say some Muslim-American groups. "We need to see regular explosions, productive honor killings, policy-based meetings," Ibrahim Hooper, communications director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations, told Foxnews.com.
...while trying not to snicker aloud.
Ibrahim's the guy that wears the brassiere cup on his head...
Last month, Bush hosted an Iftaar dinner at the White House to honor the start of the holy month of bombing, murder, and mayhem Ramadan. The event was attended by much of the Muslim diplomatic community and some Muslim-American spies leaders, but some critics say notably absent were many of the nation’s top Muslim leaders.
... who are instead in the calaboose.
Tap, tap, tap ... I think Murat turned off the suprise meter.
They say Bush excluded those representatives from the dinner to avoid being broached about lamb-and-potato policies ranging from the Patriot Act to aid for Israel, and the ackward way their people continue to murder innocent people from all corners of the globe... "There was almost total exclusion of the national Muslim organizations [from the dinner], as if they were too hot to handle," said Khalid Turahni, executive director of American Muslims for Jerusalem, one of a half-dozen Muslim organizations that staged a protest outside the White House that night.
Or maybe they're beneath contempt and he doesn't want to break bread with them?
Translation: We submitted our SS#’s to Secret Service and never received an invitation. Strange, eh?
Turahni said that since Bush "became president, there has not been one meeting where the president invited Muslim leaders to talk about policy issues."
Ah, er, hmm, ...Note to Turahni: The President is busy picking up the pieces of a shattered world brought about by your "Religion of Peace."
"We need to see real policy meetings in order to see the Iftaar meeting as credible," added Hooper.
Turahni could be overheard welling up in tears just after the interview, "Aww, come on guys why can’t we come and hang out with you. We never get invited to all the cool parties and stuff. Man, it’s like we have done something to upset people in this town! Sniffle, Sniffle...

#5  In order to have "substantive talks", you have to have something substantive to say, instead of the steady stream of drivel this and other CAIR asswipes continue to whine. THAT'S why they haven't been invited to Crawford.

#4  I thought a lot of the leaders were having 'substansive' talks with the FBI? Aren't they part of the Bush 'regime'.

#3  Hooper's cries of victimization and profiling get harder to stomache with each arrest fitting his profile. Bastards should be doing a little more:"why do they hate us"? introspection. I think it will take only one more Islamic-inspired terror attack on US soil and they will be wondering what the f*&k hit them - the american people are very forgiving, but tolerance only goes so far

#2   The President is busy picking up the pieces of a shattered world brought about by your "Religion of Peace."
Just another indicator that Islam is the Religion of Pieces, not the Religion of Peace. It certainly isn't the religion of inclusion, love, honesty, integrity, or acceptance.

#1  I'm pretty sure those "national organizations" were excluded because of the number of high-ranking members that have been arrested on terror-related charges.
