Exploitation Of Islam
By: Khalid Bhatti

Regarding "Baghdad church bombing sparks outrage" (Page A5, Tuesday), as a member of the Ahmadiyya Muslim community, I condemn al Qaeda's massacre of 60 worshipers assembled at the Our Lady of Salvation Church in Iraq.

This horrendous act was perpetrated in the name of Islam, whereas the Quran categorically sanctions the protection of all places of worship, specifically churches.

This is yet another example of al-Qaeda's exploitation of Islam to promote their unholy agenda. I offer my condolences to the families of the victims.

Unfortunately we live in times of guided missiles and misguided men.
