Harrasment After the New terror Attack


How many of you got harrased verbally (or hopefully NOT Physically) after the London Attacks!!?

I for One.

That's His E-mail: " Title: London Massacre: He started the email with the news clip (Rejoice, Islamic nation. Rejoice, Arab world. The time has come for vengeance against the Zionist crusader government of Britain in response to the massacres Britain committed in Iraq and Afghanistan," said the statement, which was translated by The Associated Press in Cairo. "The heroic mujahedeen carried out a blessed attack in London, and now Britain is burning with fear and terror, from north to south, east to west."


Ammar,
Just curious??..Is that statement said above how all Muslims feel?)

Joe C.
Assistant PM"


P.S. It may not sound like Harrasment for some!! But if know the guy, u will know it is meant with Total Ignorance, disrespect and Hate.

Those guys have no problem killing 10,000's of innocent civilians because of bogus claims, but Cry foul when terror hit them!!

I'm not proud of this, but that is what I also thought when the bombing happened.... I quickly checked my portfolio and looked for opportunity..... it is a reaction that became second nature to me and a lesson well learned when 911 happened (as most of our portfolios lost significant value).....it is a product of our capitalist society... not proud of it..... but I did it and I confess to it....

Salam,

From Fox News' July 7 breaking news coverage between 1 and 2 p.m. ET:

HUME: Well, maybe. The other thing is, of course, people have -- you know, the market was down. It was down yesterday, and you know, you may have had some bargain-hunting going on. I mean, my first thought when I heard -- just on a personal basis, when I heard there had been this attack and I saw the futures this morning, which were really in the tank, I thought, "Hmmm, time to buy." Others may have thought that as well. But you never know about the markets.

What happened was a terrible thing.. I was shocked.. yes, a significant # of people die every day in Iraq, and that's terrible as well, but a mistake cannot be solved by another mistake.. "An eye for an eye will make the world blind" ... whatever the reason was behind what happened today can never be a justification for killing innocent people.

Here is another option if you choose not to report the harassment. Send your co-worker this link for the CAIR ?Explore the Quran? campaign www.cair-net.org

The campaign is designed to educate the American public including your co-workers about Islam. A free complimentary copy of the Quran will be send to interested members. Some 13,000 people have requested their free copy so far. You can read more about the campaign at USA Today www.usatoday.com

Salam Ammoori, that's too bad about your co-worker. I'm really sorry that happened. It's unfortuate that you have to deal with that at work. As far as your comment about why do we have feel more sorry for those attacked by terror vs. military terror. I don't think you can say one is less worse than the other. The end result is innocent people dying and all human deaths/injuries deserve sympathy and condemnation of such acts.

I may make a complaint, but that would not help me staying with the company on another project!! I made a complaint in March 2003 about a co-worker that said inflamatory comments, and it was one of the reasons that got him fired. I prefer to pick my spots.

well i dunnow ur immigration situation etccc and how much do u really need ur employer. but if u dont mind being harrassed at every attack then i guess u can keep ur cards close to ur chest... alternatively u can call ur HR, ur boss or ADC. www.adc.org which is very effective in these kind of things

I just updated the JE with the email, He used the Claim of Attack as a heading!!
I reported that e-mail as a FYI for my direct supervisor who wanted to report it, but I asked him not, as I don't want to get caught up in the emotion!! Plus although it may sound weird, but I got similar comments after 9/11 from a guy at work, that guy later helped me find a job when I need it most, so I think people have a mixed bag and I prfer to keep my cards close to my vest!!
