"Imam Feisal ..... He has consistently denounced radical Islam and terrorism, and promoted a moderate and tolerant Islam...." P.S. in that article he helps our Government too.

The video of him speaking to the news about this, he says his group and 99.9% of all Muslims condemn terrorism.

NY Times Article: Imam Feiasl said, "condemns suicide bombings and all violence carried out in the name of religion."

A Nexis/newsday article (pw protected) has Rauf saying after 9/11 "categorically condemned suicide bombers."

I don't really care either way, but I do hate fox news so....
You know what I decided to look up any past quotes from the Imam before this controversy. All I found was 1 video promoting his book and 1 with Tom Brokaw (2006).
Sounds like he is saying what everyone wants to hear. I would love to hear or see all his condemnation for terrorism before 2009. If anyone can dig that up, I'll be a convert about his motives.
