The Islamic Society of Greater Portland says bin Laden’s death was a relief to the community because he did not represent their non-violent beliefs.
Spokeswoman Saba Ahmed told KGW that it canceled the gathering in Pioneer Courthouse Square after receiving hateful, extremist emails.
She says it might be more appropriate to have a peaceful healing gathering at the square on Sept. 11.
“after receiving hateful, extremist emails.”
may we know what type of hateful emails they recieved? was it from ANTI muslim sources or was it from MUSLIMS themselves who are opposed to this group celebrating the death of OBL?
or maybe,
they rally did not want to protest (not happy a Muslin got killed by infidels) , and saying they did but couldn’t they appease everybody.
excuse me but who is having another party celebrating his end??? jewish people arent partying.the people from spain…the brits…..we are all just breathing a sigh of relief and going around a bit relaxed.
