Friday In France Has Ended: What Did They Say In The Khutbas?
The French intelligence services surely have been monitoring many mosques. And the most deceptive and cunning of trhe Muslim clerics, such as Amar Lasfar (who hopes you won’t google him, and find out what he’s said over the past decade) are all for encouraging, for the sake of Islam’s image, that imams say — talk is so cheap, so meaningless — that “these attacks had nothing to do with Islam.” That shouldn’t be hard to say. And it’s exactly what they want non-Muslims to parrot, and so many of those non-Muslims are happy to believe that, or pretend to believe that they believe that.
Do you think anything — anything at all — of value was said in those Friday sermons, those khutbas? Any surreptitious videotaping of anything heartwarming — declarations of solidarity with the French, support noisily voiced for freedom of speech, sadness over the killiing of “Jewish brothers and sisters”? What do you think?
