Bomb at Illinois Islamic Center Turns Out To Be Burned Qurans, Hate Propaganda

By Chad Garrison Wed., Sep. 28 2011 at 1:55 PM

A bomb scare inside a mosque north of Centralia, Illinois, yesterday is now being investigated as a hate crime.

Central Illinois' WJBD radio reports that a church member found a box in the bushes outside the center and brought it inside thinking it was a donation for the food bank. Soon other church members grew suspicious of the package and called authorities who, in turn, called in the bomb squad.

Some 25 nearby residents were evacuated from the scene as the bomb squad used a water cannon to blast open the package. It's contents? Burned Qurans, anti-Islamic propaganda and newspaper clippings.

From most of the comments it sounds like you have never read the Koran or studied much of it's history. The basic's are the same as that of other religion's with only the extremist's sharing alternative religious value's.I believe in God, but not a specific religion. For me it work's just fine. Treat other's as how you would like to be treated and everyone will get along fine. Hate breed's nothing but more hate. And that is nothing but ignorance showing it's face.Muslim's, Christians, Catholic's, or whatever you religion, it really doesn't matter. With love and peace ALL things are possible.Signed by a Citizen and supporter of the equal right's of ALL the religion's in Centrealia, Illinois and everywhere else!

I wonder why church members were at the mosque? Was this some sort of interfaith gathering?

HOOSIERS!!!!!

NOhammed

The Koran is a book of hate that advocates violence against all non-Muslims. And yes, it is FAR WORSE than the Bible, so don't even bring that shit up.

Islam is a cancer that must be eradicated from Earth.

Amen Brother NOhammed. While it won't be eradicated from the earth, the cancer of Islammust NEVER be allowed to influence our government or way of life. As soon as Sharia law rears its ugly heinous head its time to strike at the heart of these evil bastards once and for all...sorta like driving a stake thru a vampire's heart!

Humans are worse than animals

People like you cause death. Killing comes from people who demand others be scorned, but not himself. Same thing happened to Jesus. Look in a mirror.

I have discovered that I can't burn pages of the Quron after I wipe my ass with them. Burning them is wasteful since they soak up shit just as good as they burn. Burn Baby Burn!
