Abdulrauf Campos-Marquetti, spokesperson for the Islamic Center of New Mexico, says the center is also in support of a cease-fire and fairer U.S. involvement. ,Instead of negotiating a cease-fire, [the U.S.] is actually fueling the fire by sending military equipment [to Israel],, he says.
,Things are clearly not working.The amount of devastation, the number of rockets, is about the same every day.We,re not even hearing about southern Israel and Gaza, where similar bombing is occurring.We condemn the war on both sides, the bombing of innocent civilians.,
According to Campos-Marquetti, who is also the producer of Islamic Forum of New Mexico, a one-hour television show on public access, the fighting in the region has escalated too far, and the U.S. should use its sway to help all sides come to a resolution. ,Now al Qaeda says it wants to join in; it,s turned into an incredible nightmare,, he says. ,The damage you see on buildings, schools, hospitals, businesses. -

That the Islamic Center of New Mexico would feel compelled to issue such a statement in the first place says a lot about the unspoken prejudices its members face in a post-9/11 world... in a world awash with misconceptions about Islam, [Abdul Rauf Campos-Marquetti, the man who issued the mosque's news release] says, it's absolutely vital that everyone, particularly the media, understand that Islamic extremists are just that: a small, fractious element that in no way represents an entire religion... Muslims face a tough road in this country.The Islamic faith is little understood in the United States, and the mass-media linkage between al-Qaida and Islam is pervasive... It's the day-to-day wiggle room of reality that Campos-Marquetti, vice president of the Islamic Center, depends upon as he thinks about the future.
