Muslim Groups Outrageously Outraged That FBI Used Dog In Raid On Puppy-Shooting Imam
Muslim Groups Outrageously Outraged That FBI Used Dog In Raid On It’s probably unfair to call this sharia-advocating radical cleric a puppy shooter. The animal he tried to put three bullets into – this in the course of an FBI raid targeting him on weapons charges – was probably a full-grown dog. Still though. He tried to kill a dog.
That said, I don’t doubt the outrage. The antipathy to puppies thing is pretty well established in these circles. Ahmadinejad uses it as an anti-Western insult, presumably including even those Westerners who really, really want to appease him. There were those UK Muslim students who threatened to kill the dog of an epileptic student-teacher, which the school responded to by developing better “communication” so as to avoid “misunderstandings.” And Lebanese Arabs were somewhat petulantly willing to starve themselves rather than eat Iranian food aid that sniffer-dogs had cleared.
But you’d think American Muslims would be more concerned about how the Dearborn community nurtured a high-profile criminal imam who wanted to transform the US into a sharia state. Or about how he was swimming in stolen goods and illegal weapons. But nope. It’s the dog that bothers them:
The indictment identified Abdullah, 53, also known as Christopher Thomas, as “a highly placed leader of a nationwide radical fundamentalist Sunni group” that sought to establish a separate state within the United States governed by Sharia law. Muslim and community groups have accused the FBI of excessive force in the raid… Among the concerns is the number of gunshot wounds detailed in the medical examiner’s report and the fact Abdullah’s corpse was left handcuffed while an FBI dog allegedly shot by Abdullah was airlifted for medical treatment…
Agents would have been justified in firing if Abdullah had reached for a weapon, let alone having brandished a weapon and fired three shots, as Stejskal said he understands Abdullah did… In a space of three to four seconds, four agents fired an average of five shots each, striking Abdullah 20 times, with one shot creating two wounds for a total of 21 entry wounds…
Nabih Ayad, an attorney representing Abdullah’s widow, said it was needlessly confrontational to send a dog after Abdullah because Muslims view dogs as unclean and anyone attacked by a dog could react violently. Stejskal said he thought the concern about the use of the dog would be more legitimate if Abdullah was a Muslim from the Mideast, rather than an American who converted while in prison.
The entire incident is under investigation by the civil rights division of the U.S. Justice Department. Because a radical arms-running imam was shot by FBI agents after he took potshots at them – there was probably some racism involved there. How soon before Muslim communities start making the mere existence of anything dog-related a civil rights issue, ala the problems Europeans are having with anything pig-related? “The pet store in our neighborhood is selling dog potty pads! Racists!”
