Muslim Bro Creation ISNA Uses 9/11's 10th for More Interfaithy Chicanery

If there's anything dumber than a flock of dhimmis rushing to participate in an ISNA-convened interfaithy gathering (in New York City, yet), I have yet to come across it (although I must say, the words "lemmings" and "cliff" do spring to mind). Here's what onIslam has to say about it:

Announcing a new era of interfaith cooperation, the US faith leaders agreed to cooperate to end discrimination against Muslims and promote mutual understanding.

“As our nation commemorates the 10th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, we stand together as religious leaders from diverse traditions to urge our fellow Americans to recommit to the inspiring spirit of unity and cooperation that we as a people embraced in the weeks after the tragedy,” said the pledge read by Cizik.

The joint statement called for building bridges to reach the true sense of a united American nation.

“In the days after September 11, Americans transcended barriers of race, religion and political ideology in a powerful display of national unity amidst shared grief,” the statement posted on ISNA’s website said.

“The time has come to reclaim the sense of community and shared purpose that guided us through those trying days a decade ago.”

It also condemned the latest waves of anti-Muslim bigotry, urging all faith leaders to join hands against Muslim defamation.

“Fear-based politics and discrimination against Muslim Americans and those perceived to be Muslim disgrace the memories of those who perished on September 11, and desecrate the core values that make our nation great,” it added.

“We call on all houses of worship and individuals to join with us as we stand up for hope, unity, and healing.”

Sharing the gathering’s hope of unity, Rev. C. Welton Gaddy, president of Interfaith Alliance, called local communities to hold ecumenical services where Jewish, Christians and Muslims “read from the Torah, the gospels and the Koran in the same service.”

“The point is people who are Islamophobic have not understood that all three major traditions worship the same god, have the same values, and they are not values of division but values of coming together, mutual understand and mutual respect,” Gaddy said.

Rabbi Marc Schneier, president of the Foundation for Ethnic Understanding in New York, said there are signs of progress.

“We now see greater sensitivity since 9/11, and we have seen the emergence of the re-United States of America.” 

We see greater denial and delusion and a greater willingness to suspend disbelief and all good judgement, more like.
