Re: "17 Terror Arrests in Toronto"
mfs,
I respect that we do not know the truth....but quite frankly, I don't believe the claim that the fertilizer was purchased for legitimate use.
I know of the mosque that you are speaking and Ibrahim has attended Juma there on numerous occassions. We drive by that particular mosque at least three times per/week if not more.
Firstly, I don't see any type of grounds maintenance going on there that would require fertilizer. If anything, they would need to get weed-killer and perhaps a john deer type of mower that would allow them to cut the over-grown grass and weeds down. Furthermore, the vast majority of the land that this mosque sits upon is covered in gravel to allow for parking......there really isn't any reason why such a substance would need to be purchased.
Secondly, Ibrahim has mentioned to me on more than one occassion that the khutbas at that mosque incite anger and violence rather than promote peace and tolerance. He has often said that he has wanted to speak to the management there and ask them what they hope to accomplish by concentrating on such issues.
