Fearful Muslims cower as Christian day of prayer nears

Evidently Muslims want us to think that the 24-hour prayer vigil going on as you read this, by the group TheCall will result in masses of juiced-up on Jesus Christians going gangster on innocent Muslims across Metro Detroit. I have been wracking my brain trying to find equivalent incidents of Muslims attacking innocent Christians and, well this blog isn't big enough to hold them all.

Once again Muslim leaders, including CAIR-Michigan are portraying Muslims as victims; real or imagined. Keep the opponents of Islam and sharia rocking on their toes by invoking the "V" word while whining about non-existent threats and supposed "anti-Muslim hate crimes"

Detroit prayer event puts Muslim community on edge

DETROIT (AP) — An area with one of the largest Muslim communities in the United States is bracing itself for a 24-hour prayer rally by a group that counts Islam among the ills facing the nation.

The gathering in Detroit at Ford Field, the stadium where theDetroit Lions play, starts Friday evening and is designed to tackle issues such as the economy, racial strife, same-sex relationships and abortion. But the decade-old organization known as TheCallhas said Detroit is a "microcosm of our national crisis" in all areas, including "the rising tide of the Islamic movement."

Leaders of TheCall believe a satanic spirit is shaping all parts of U.S. society, and it must be challenged through intensive Christian prayer and fasting. Such a demonic spirit has taken hold of specific areas, Detroit among them, organizers say. In the months ahead of their rallies, teams of local organizers often travel their communities performing a ritual called "divorcing Baal," the name of a demon spirit, to drive out the devil from each location.

"Our concern is that we are literally being demonized by the organizers of this group," said Dawud Walid, executive director of Council on American-Islamic Relations' Michigan chapter, which last week urged local mosques and Islamic schools to increase security. "And given the recent history of other groups that have come into Michigan ... we're concerned about this prayer vigil stoking up the flames of divisiveness in the community."

When you say we, Walid, exactly which we are you referring to? What is being challenged is Islamic doctrine and it's call for the subjugatgion of non-Islamic cultures, not Muslims as a whole. By increasing security around mosques I assume you will also call for security around synagogues as well, since Jews are victims in the overwhelming number of religious hate crimes (over 70% in 2009). What stokes the flames of Muslim anger is to see Christians, or Jews or any other non-Islamic group have any kind of equal platform with Islam. If there is violence it will have started with the local Muslims, not visiting Christians.

TheCall is the latest and largest of several groups or individuals to come to the Detroit area with a message that stirred up many of its estimated 150,000 to 200,000 Muslims. Recent visitors have included Florida pastor Terry Jones; members of the Westboro Baptist Church; and the Acts 17 Apologetics, missionaries who were arrested for disorderly conduct last year at Dearborn's Arab International Festival but were later acquitted.
