Charges against Islamic Center – an Affront to Entire Moslem Community
The following letter from the past and current presidents of the Islamic Center of Boston in Wayland appeared in the Boston Globe on Wednesday October 13.
AS PAST and current presidents, respectively, of the Islamic Center of Boston in Wayland, we appreciate that the group designating itself as Americans for Peace and Tolerance has found the educational experience at our center to its satisfaction (“Mosque video flap is a case of attacking the messenger,’’ Letters, Oct. 5). As key players in the development of community outreach at our center, we have also had contact with the current leadership of the Islamic Society of Boston Cultural Center and the Muslim American Society. On this basis we have absolute confidence in their integrity and find any suggestion that they would harbor, let alone promote, anti-Semitic, anti-Christian, and anti-American diatribes totally contrary to their personal character and the transparent inter-religious outreach they have endorsed.
