Mosque man silent on Sudan
The head of the mosque to be built near Ground Zero has been called a spiritual healer and a rank opportunist. But racist? That’s the view of Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf held by Francis Bok, a Catholic sold into a decade of slavery in the African nation of Sudan at age 7 by Islamic jihadists, who control the country. He escaped. Bok, 31, was outraged by the words of friendship and appeasement Rauf has lobbed at Sudan’s genocidal government.
“Why does he never tell the truth about things happening in Sudan?” asked Bok. “About the Islamic and Muslim regime killing my people? Why is he covering that up?” Rauf has been sent by the US State Department to visit foreign hellholes with messages of peace. Take his word with a shaker of salt.
