We cannot stress enough that we are against killing – we do not rejoice in the killing of any human being and certainly not innocent civilians. Moreover, we are not against Muslims – we are opposed to extremists. With this in mind, the news reports require some context and background.Rev. Majid El-ShafieFri, 23 Aug 2013 15:56:00 -0400
