This is so disgusting. Chris Rodda from the MRFF reports at HuffPo:
Friday, September 26th ended a week in which thousands of copies of Obsession: Radical Islam’s War Against the West — the fear-mongering, anti-Muslim documentary being distributed by the millions in swing states via DVDs inserted in major newspapers and through the U.S. mail — were distributed by mail in Ohio. The same day, a “chemical irritant” was sprayed through a window of the Islamic Society of Greater Dayton, where 300 people were gathered for a Ramadan prayer service. The room that the chemical was sprayed into was the room where babies and children were being kept while their mothers were engaged in prayers. This, apparently, is what the scare tactic political campaigning of John McCain’s supporters has led to — Americans perpetrating a terrorist attack against innocent children on American soil.
I read the story as reported by the Dayton Daily News, but this was after I had received an email written by a friend of some of the victims of these American terrorists. The matter of fact news report in the Dayton paper didn’t come close to conveying the horrific impact of this unthinkable act like the email I had just read, so I asked the email’s author for permission to share what they had written. The author was with one of the families from the mosque — a mother and two of the small children who were in the room that was gassed — the day after the attack occurred.
Chris goes on to talk about how this happened on the same week that local newspapers received Obsession, a right wing DVD that is used as propaganda in order to scare people into voting for John McCain. It paints the entire Muslim world as a bunch of killers. The Dayton Daily News is also owned by the same company that prints my local news paper. As matter of fact they are printed at the same place. I did have my copy of Obsession in my paper last week. Here’s a scan of it:

As you can see I haven’t watched it. I have seen enough clips on the internet of this over the years, and might finally break down and watch the entire thing in the future. If investigators do end up tying this act of terrorism to this DVD then the company that distributed this propaganda must be held accountable. John McCain also needs to stand up and denounce this group immediately. If not then he is a supporter of terrorism.
Oh and we can now stop saying there haven’t been any terrorists attacks in the homeland. That’s exactly what this is. So just stop it now.
UPDATE:
And where is the national media on this story? This isn’t being reported from some left wing blog or liberal talk radio host. It is being covered in a local newspaper, that is owned by a national organization. Perhaps we should start a campaign blitz on the MSM to cover this story.
