One more reason to call the Islamists brown Sudanese student Ahmed Maglad, 30, testified he met defendant Mounir el Motassadeq while living in Hamburg in 1997 and through him met lead suicide pilot Mohamed Atta, who he said was "aggressively religious" and was always trying to "prove something." Maglad told the Hamburg state court he also knew Ramzi Binalshibh, the suspected contact between al-Qaida and the Hamburg cell that included three of the suicide pilots. "Everybody spoke out against the United States because it defends Israel," Maglad said. The Hamburg group believed that "the foundation of Israel was unjustified, and the Palestinian conflict was always a topic for Atta." Appearing at el Motassadeq's retrial, Maglad said Atta became "too much" for him — one reason he changed schools and moved to Berlin in 1998. He portrayed el Motassadeq as firmly allied with Atta. "Mounir and Atta didn't have any quarrels and Mounir once suggested when I was of a different opinion that I should be quiet," Maglad testified. |

| #4 Germany-Your populace's "tolerance" of the ideas these moron martyrs espouse had an effect-it created a "safe haven" environment for people that "helped" murder more than 3000 of our citizens. It is simply astounding to me that a country which has been humiliated and shamed for its crimes against humanity of 60 years ago, a country that the US bailed out and nurtured for return to the "international community", finds it somehow more palatable to sympathize with terrorists than with the US. Germany-Wake up. Are you gonna be on the wrong side again? |

| #3 ...Interestingly enough, the one Muslim SS unit that was officially put together - SS Die Kama - didn't last that long, as its Muslim members spent more time looting/raping/pillaging Christians in the Balkans than following orders. Himmler was so embarassed by their performance that he had them quietly disbanded. Mike |

| #2 OldSpook, here's a link to the Arab/Nazi connection you are mentioning. All of them were admirers of Hitler and the Holocaust. For that alone they each deserve to catch a slug. |

| #1 The links to Hitler are not entirely specious. A major source of Arab troops for the Waffen SS was the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem - the cousin of Yasser Arafat - yep, THAT yasser Arafat. Also, check into the history of Nasser as well as the history of the early leaders of the Arab wars against Israel. |
