Fire destroys Jersey City mosque

Thick plumes of smoke and intense flames rip through a mosque in Jersey City, New Jersey. The two-alarm fire broke out just before 6:00 AM Friday morning. It took firefighters about an hour to bring it under control. Aerials from a news helicopter show firefighters on the roof of the Al-Tawheed Islamic Center. They used sledgehammers to break through windows to let the smoke escape. Local media is reporting no one was hurt in the blaze. The cause of the fire is under investigation.

2. Women teachers told not to apply for jobs at UK Muslim school

At the same time, in the capital, Tripoli, protesters stormed parliament to demand the dissolution of the General National Congress (GNC), shooting and wounding two lawmakers and beating others.

4. Anti war protest in Moscow. Dozens arrested. 

5. Pro war march in Moscow

6, Shiia tard march in Ottawa Canada. The sign at 43 seconds carried by a kid needs checking. “Every land is Karbala” is a little concerning. This was on March 1 2014

 

Thank you M, Wrath of Khan, and all. More to come. Sorry about that.
