It's that time again. Time to nominate the best Muslim blogs for the
Brass Crescent Awards. All nominations for veiled4allah are welcome, of course ;)
A bit later: *sigh* So I was reading
Why European women are turning to Islam and it starts with:
Mary Fallot looks as unlike a terrorist suspect as one could possibly imagine: a petite and demure white Frenchwoman chatting with friends on a cell-phone, indistinguishable from any other young woman in the café where she sits sipping coffee.
And that is exactly why European antiterrorist authorities have their eyes on thousands like her across the continent.
Ms. Fallot is a recent convert to Islam. In the eyes of the police, that makes her potentially dangerous.
Can we
please get away from this kind of stupidity?
Islam is a religion. People convert to it because they're looking for spiritual fulfillment. That doesn't make them terrorist suspects, for God's sake! :rolleyes:
