- Verse of the Day: Encourage Deeds of Kindness and Compassion
"What will explain to you the path that is steep? It is the freeing of a (slave) from bondage, or the giving of food in a day of famine to an orphan relative or to a needy (stranger) in distress, and to be of those who believe, enjoin patience (in adversity) and encourage deeds of kindness and compassion."

- Pamela Geller, Hate Speech, and Synagogues
Here are some statements made by Pamela Geller and her associates in the hate groups AFDI/SIOA. These are individuals Geller works with, praises, has chosen to be on boards of these organizations. These statements clearly show their attitude towards Islam and Muslims -- not some Muslims or some interpretations of Islam - but ISLAM and MUSLIMS generally. I believe that they are clearly hate speech, and that individuals holding such views are not "appropriate" individuals to speak in any house of worship. Babu Suseelan of AFDI/SION: "If we do not kill the bacteria,the bacteria will kill us. Otherwise, he warned, "Muslims will breed like rats and they will be a majority. "Islam can be stopped! And it can be wiped out."

If you're a US politician finding yourself working to allow a foreign government to discriminate against your own fellow citizens - by vesting that foreign country with a right that no other country (including your own) has - then you're essentially broadcasting to the world that the interests of that foreign government take precedence over your own and over the equal rights of your own fellow citizens.
