Defending the Truth

A Muslim-American man angry with Israel barged into the offices of the Jewish Federation of Greater Seattle Friday afternoon and opened fire with a handgun, killing one woman and wounding five others before surrendering to police.

Three of the women were in critical condition late Friday.

A law-enforcement source identified the arrested suspect as Naveed Afzal Haq, 30, who until recently had lived in Everett, and said Haq apparently has a history of mental illness. Court records show Haq has a charge of lewd conduct pending against him in Benton County.

The shooting came a day after the FBI had warned Jewish organizations nationwide to be on alert after Hezbollah leaders in Lebanon and al-Qaida's second in command urged that the war raging in the Middle East be carried to the U.S. However, the law-enforcement source, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said there is no evidence Haq was involved with any group.

Actually he was a Christian:

"According to published reports, Haq recently converted to Christianity and was baptized last December."

Actually, he said he was a Muslim when he started shooting. Just because I went to a mosque once does not make me a muslim. You need to check your facts out before you parrot everything you read. Here is a quote of his:

"He allegedly stated: "I'm not upset at the people, I'm upset at your foreign policy. These are Jews. I'm tired of getting pushed around, and our people getting pushed around by the situation in the Middle East." He went on to say he wanted the American military out of Iraq and wanted the 911 operator to call the media". http://tinyurl.com/pv3zx

Okay, if he is a Christian, then tell me who is he referring to as "our people"?

...probably all the Christians who are suicide bombers, terrorists and rioters.

I saw this on the news. It made me cry.

I spend a lot of time at my local JCC, whether it's evening classes, or community service. Most of the people that spend time at the JCC are elderly, or children. We have a preschool upstairs. I feel very sorry for this man, and for the victims.

I don't feel sorry for him. He shot 6 unarmed women in the stomach and one was pregnant. The pregnant lady was hit in the arm after she covered her stomach to protect her baby. He should be dead.

Okay, the bottom line is this:

If this guy has a "history of mental illness", all bets are off.

He's a nut-job.

Whatever he was saying, or claiming to believe when he shot the people, he's still a nut-job.

Unless of course he said he was a Christian because we all know Christians are nut jobs.......isn't that right Hevusa?

Unless of course he said he was a Christian because we all know Christians are nut jobs.......isn't that right Hevusa? Now all Bin Laden has to do is come out and say he has converted to Christianity and he will get the Nobel Peace Prize.
