The highly advertised march of free Muslims against terror in Washington DC on Saturday May, 14th was a resounding success with more than 50 marchers at the rally.
I have to give Kamal Nawash credit for trying. He has limitless optimism and says next years rally will have a bigger turn out. I wish I had his optimism, but the message is clear for all to see.
A list of supporters for the rally can be found at this link: ttp://www.freemuslims.org/march/endorsers.php
Of the more than 70 groups that endorsed the march, only a handful were Muslim.
Why was the turnout such a resounding flop? The reasons are of no consequence, but the message is clear - Muslims on the whole either agree with terrorism or are unwilling to criticize their fellow Muslims. The implications are deep and foreboding for the land of the free.
I Googled "Free Muslims Against Terrorism " and came up empty on news reports, perhaps later today...
Yahoo yielded one story on AFP on this historic march for freedom with a few dozen supporters. Lots of stuff before May 14th, but nothing on the rally turnout. Why? Because the turnout was so abominably disappointing that it has no news value? Perhaps, but the fact that American Muslims did not support this rally should be big news on all the networks. Why didn't the Saudis send a even one representative?
The Crescent News Network (CNN) is ominously quiet about this rally as are all of the other news networks. This should have been big news in this country!
What does this highly touted rally say about the Muslim community in this country?
Wake up America! Wake up!

I guess it would be pretty much impossible to get good advice about motivating a larger turn out from Louis Farakan, huh?
You'd think that with all the drive by shootings going on in America, someone would have gotten Louis by now.
Farakan is a problem, but he's not a part of the ulmma. He talks a good story but I think it's all talk, no Islamic crap.
OH BUT REMEMBER HE WENT TO IRAQ AND PLEDGED TO saddam[found in a hole don't shoot I'm a yellow coward] NO I THINK YOU GOT THE MAN WRONG HE IS IN THIS MESS AND REMEMBER WHERE HE GETS HIS RECURITS YEA FROM CONVERTS IN JAIL???
