Hundreds attend anti-Islam rally in Waukesha, WI - Sponsored by a "Christian" radio station

The bigots are trying to stop construction of an Islamic center.

With the big-name draw of Walid Shoebat, more than 200 people gathered at the Waukesha Expo Center Saturday night to hear the message that Islam is a growing threat to law and peace in the United States.

The rally was an especially strong draw for Brookfield residents who oppose a mosque proposed for the city by the Islamic Society of Milwaukee.

Shoebat, who says he is an ex-terrorist, has been confronted about his past by media outlets like CNN, who reported they could find no evidence to support his background story. But he stood by his case Saturday, saying the media were the real frauds.

"Heck, sometimes even FOX News doesn't even like what I have to say, because I say Islam is not a peace-loving religion," Shoebat told the crowd.

Brookfield residents Chuck and Sharon Bloom left the rally Saturday with a plastic bag full of books sold by VCY America, a Christian radio station that sponsored the event. The couple was hoping to learn more about Islam and to build a case against the proposed mosque.

1. Hmmmm

Maybe a bunch of us should hold a rally the next time plans are in the works to build yet another Southern Baptist or Pentecostal megachurch in some town.

After all, they were big cheerleaders for the Iraq War, which killed a lot of innocent people.

2. Gee, I wonder who they are going after when they finish up with the Muslims?

Are there any other religions these Christians don't like?

5. There is a poll to vote for or against

and the for the mosque is losing. I voted for it. I live close and shop at the Mall and I don't see why not. Except now that they are doing this, it'll create a bad atmosphere there for the mosque.

6. My lovely red-haired daughter married a guy from Pakistan.

He turned out to be an abusive asshole but I now have 4 beautiful black haired Muslim granddaughters. I live in Milwaukee and these Brookfield M-F ers can kiss my Muslim lovin' ass!

7. Probably the same Christian fascists who tried to stop a mosque in Sheboygan county.

(Town of Wilson)

They failed. Totally. The mosque has been up and running for over a year now.
