„OAKLAND - Members of the Nation of Islam spoke out Saturday against allegations that their group was connected to vandalism at two liquor stores, where young men wearing suits and bow ties were seen trashing the businesses.

Minister Tony Muhammad, the Muslim group's West Coast leader ... denied any involvement by Nation of Islam members, who are known for wearing suits and bow ties.

... The attacks occurred Wednesday in West Oakland at San Pablo Market and Liquor, then New York Market, where about a dozen men swept liquor bottles off shelves ...

... the suspects told the merchants during the attacks not to sell liquor to black people
... Deputy Chief Howard Jordan ... declined, however, to say whether a separate black Muslim group, which operates the Your Black Muslim Bakery store chain and whose members also wear suits and bow ties, was under investigation.

In January 1993, Muslims affiliated with the bakery were involved in a similar incident at a North Richmond store, police said.“

KOMMENTAR: Falls es Muslime waren, die in die geschilderten Verwüstungsaktionen in Läden verwickelt sind, die Alkohol verkaufen, so dürften sie schlicht und ergreifend dem „Vorbild“ ihres „Propheten“ gemäß gehandelt haben: Von Muhammad ist nämlich überliefert, dass er in seinem Machtbereich von Nichtmuslimen betriebene Weinschenken hat schließen lassen (man kann sich die entsprechenden Bedrohungsszenarien gut vorstellen). In ähnlicher Weise bedrohen heutzutage Muslime u.a. im Norden Nigerias christliche Spirituosenhändler und bringen sie durch den Zwang zur Geschäftsaufgabe in existentielle Not.

Aber das ist wahrscheinlich egal, wenn es um die Durchsetzung von „Allahs Willen“ geht...
