Ashura in Queens, New York
<http://www.nydailynews.com/news/galleries/festival_of_ashura/festival_of_as hura.html> Ashura%20in%20Queens.jpg Ain't multiculturalism grand? The New York Daily News (thanks to Ruth King) has a <http://www.nydailynews.com/news/galleries/festival_of_ashura/festival_of_as hura.html> slide show of photos from the Ashura celebration of the al-Khoei Islamic Center in Queens, where flagellants drew blood from their backs and heads. <http://www.nydailynews.com/news/galleries/festival_of_ashura/festival_of_as hura.html?c=5> The News says: "Although self-flagellation is a painful and bloody act, Shi'ites believe it to be a statement against violence." Uh huh. How long will it be before we start seeing <http://www.jihadwatch.org/archives/019653.php> this in New York? What will prevent it? <http://www.nydailynews.com/news/galleries/festival_of_ashura/festival_of_as hura.html?c=6> The News also says: "The event, which takes place around the world, is painful both physically and emotionally to those who take part in it." That much is certainly true. http://jihadwatch.org/ [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] -------------------------- Want to discuss this topic?
