Just curious... I have not heard a peep from this once vocal group of Mohammed's Children since the attack. Has anyone?

I wonder, when it comes down to the wire, where will they stand? Do they see themselves as Africans, Muslims or Americans? Which holds the stronger loyalty?

Whichever one they can squeeze a few more dollars out of.

they could care less about the U.S. or Muslims.  

it has nothing to do with religion, it is all about hate, power, control and money.

i watched via internet the official response of Rev.Farrahkahn (spelling?)and he said (paraphrased) He condemned the attacks on our country and basicaly supported the US in defensive actions against terrorism, and he also stated that although this country still has some racial problems, its still the greatest nation on earth. i was very suprised at his statements. now im not a nation of islam supporter, but i was happy to see that the nation of islam stands with the US.

I heard Faracone threaten aramagedon if the US attacked Afganistan. Cheak ou the final call website to see what he thinks.

What the hell difference does it make what Farrakan says or does not say? He does not represent Blacks nor a vast majority of muslims.  The Nation of Islam is it's own little entity.  If it weren't, it wouldn't be called "Nation fo Islam".  Also, he hasn't got his cut of *faith-based funding* (something I personally oppose) yet so he'll stifle himself if he's smart.

Please, no need to search for things or people that will divide us.  We can get back to that old stale routine after the current situation is under control. Do not give such idiots the stage right.  

EX, I found the speech you were speaking of...

I see where you are coming from in your opinion but there was an undertone I really did not like. But, admittedly, I do not like Farrahkahn at all.

Anyway, I was curious and that clears it up a bit, possibly. I would still use caution in dealing with any "True Believer" at this time. That is only prudent in my opinion.

Nobby, you say "no need to search for things or people that will divide us." Is it not better to know where your enemy may be, both externally and internally? I do not mind if my neighbors have dogs but I'd be interested in knowing if they bite.

Also, checking your six should never be "that old stale routine."

BTT in case anyone was interested in F's speech...
