I do understand that many Muslims condemn terror attacks, and that it's foolish to say all Muslims are responsible for 9/11. I just believe it's a prime time to condemn the attacks and mourn with the rest of us who mourn for the losses on 9/11.
Say a Christian nation existed and in the name of God bombed Mecca and killed thousands of people. Would it not be sensetive if a Christian holiday like Easter (that changes each year) fell on the anniversary of the attack?

That'll show em.

Btw I just realized you were from London. Maybe this is just perception from TV but anytime I watch BBC it seems like there are a lot of muslim people living there. If that's true, why is that?
Yup, right up to the point where he gets arrested for illegal drugs. Less it's a "tobacco" bong. Hahah.
Trying to get a reaction?
I wish.
My borough has no Mosques
Muslims make up less than 2% of UK's population.
No just a random question and stealing a joke from Colbert.
Heh.
Oh wow. You have unintentionally mentioned one of divisions.
We are not united on Ramadan. Muslims from different sects, countries have a pissing contest when Ramadan comes about, disagreeing on "when" the Moon shows. What signals the beginning of Ramadan? Does it start when the native country declares it or when Saudi's do? Follow tradition or science.
Divisions among Muslims. Endless.
Nothing can happen with Muslims as a "whole". We are more divided than ever. No way will you ever heard a "united" 1.2billion condemnation of terrorism. There is no hierarchy of authority.
And Muslims have been condemning, the difference is very few hear it. I am not going to sit here and pretend I spend all day condemning what Muslims do abroad because frankly. It is not my fault what other people do and I and other Moderates are not responsible for it.
What the Muslim community in US seem to be doing is just doing pre-empting those who will claim Muslims are celebrating 9/11 on Eid and trying to put out information. I don't blame them either.
How many Muslims are going to postpone the holiday recognition, out of respect for the victims of 9/11? Any?
I bet you're all going to be united when it comes to that.

They do? ****, my calendar is ****ED UP.
Did you postpone watching football/baseball on 9/11 out of respect for the dead?
good idea, they should do that, just as soon as christians postpone christmas out of respect for the 2004 tsunami.
The Tsunami was an attack comitted by Christian terrorists? See how silly that question is, now?

I don't like football. But, to answer your question, I do not partake in festivities on 6 June, 11 September, 7 December, or the last Monday in May.
Anymore smartass questions?

I do not speak for anyone but myself.
I'd rather wait for the Moon to show at the end before anyone jumps on the "fact" Eid is on 9/11.
Two quick things:
1) 9/11 was not committed by all Muslims; one should not hold every Muslim responsible for Al Qaeda's terrorist attack.
2) Eid falls on the same day every year on the Islamic calendar. It is the Gregorian calendar on which it falls on different days.
Should Eid fall on 9/11, and that is not yet assured, a reasonable person should understand that Muslims are celebrating Eid, not commemorating the terrorist attacks that occurred on that day in 2001.
You are comparing an act of terrorists with an act of nature?
Fail!!!
serious question -- what does the moon have to show to annouce the fact that Eid has started? Isn't it something that the astronomical sciences can tell us when it will happen? After all, during the early Middle Ages, Islamic astronomy was the best in the world yet even before the advent of Islam in Arabia, the Chinese were predicting things like eclipises of the sun and moon...
