I find it absurd and narrow minded that some westerners see fit to criticize Muslims for storing weapons in their Mosques.
People who bash Islam for this assume that all cultures should also believe that holy places are soley for peaceful purposes.
Simply because its totally unheard of, for temples or chruches synagogues, to be used for such purposes, doesnt mean that such a practice is wrong.
The Islamic community has a different belief about wartime, and in contrast to other religions, uses such community centers as the focus of wartime coordination and logistics.
All this proves is that Islamic culture is very different from western cultures, but it doesnt make it wrong...or right...
