(Pioneer Press) — A group of Islamic and Somali organizations said Monday that an upcoming educational seminar on Somalia organized by former Ramsey County sheriff Bob Fletcher is anti-Muslim and anti-Somali and will lead to a rise in racial and religious profiling.

The seminar, called “Understanding the People of Somalia,” will be put on Thursday at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in St. Paul by the Center for Somalia History Studies, an organization founded by Fletcher this year.

The seminar brochure says training will be provided on al-Shabaab, “an Islamic Extremist Organization,” and says that topics covered will include “Clans and Sub Clans,” “Black Hawk Down,” “Youth Gangs,” “Transition to America” and “Somali Culture.”. . .

The CAIR-MN message also objected to the description of al-Shabaab as an “Islamic extremist terrorism” organization because it “fails to distinguish between Islam and terrorism.”

The message is endorsed by about 30 organizations, according to Saroya, including mosques, Islamic centers, the Muslim American Society of Minnesota and Somali Action Alliance.

Google "Al-Shabaab beheading" and see just how "peaceful" and "not extremist" they are.

Fuck CAIR.

A Muslim father charged with murdering his three daughters in apparent honour killings has said he would do it again - even if they came back to life 100 times.

Mohammad Shafia, 58, cursed his daughters Zainab, 19, Sahar, 17, and Geeti, 13, saying they were 'treacherous' as he likened them to prostitutes during a conversation that was recorded by police.

He is on trial for their murders after they were found dead in the family car along with Shafia's first wife, Rona Amir, 50, in the Rideau Canal, located in the Kingston area of Ontario in Canada in 2009.
