A step in the right direction

Daniel,

In addition to your comments, this initiative should also focus on the monetary contributions provided to the mosques by its congregation. Many honest people in our society gladly contribute to these organizations without really knowing where this money is being channeled.

This is not a new phenomenon. There have been instances in the past where mosques in the United State collect money and channel that money to terrorist militant-Islam groups.

This must be stopped!
