Have You Heard About The Muslim Prayer Rug At The AZ Border That Turned Out To Be An Adidas T-Shirt?

Anyway, to Arizona:

Breitbart.com Is Sure This Adidas Shirt's an Islamo-Mexican Terror Rug

<http://i.kinja-img.com/gawker-media/image/upload/s--yrUgF2C1--/c_fit,fl_progressive,q_80,w_636/805599587666958254.jpg>



Matthew Leber spokesman for the American Patriot, Three Percent, sent Breitbart News photos of what American security contractors on the ground believe is a Muslim prayer rug found near the border in Arizona last week.

A member of the security team spoke with Breitbart News on Monday night saying they were on patrol right along the border came down into a wash and the area were working in just south of Sierra Vista in Coronado national forest.

“That’s when I saw this thing laying around. And I was like, ‘What the hell is that?’ We walked over there and I didn’t really want to pull at it not knowing what was on it. I poked a bit at it with a stick and noticed some of the Arabic writing and was just like, ‘Oh boy.’ I snapped a couple of photos and then went on our patrol.”

Sadly, Breitbart only shared one of those photos, so let's suss it out, shall we?

1. Here we see a waist hemline on the Muslim prayer rug.

2. This would be a sleeve opening on the Muslim prayer rug, just above the diamond-hatch red-and-white pattern so popular among lower-tier football clubs and militant Muslim prayer-rug salesmen.

3. Islamic scholars and Arsenal fans will immediately recognize "die marke mit den 3 streifen" here on the Muslim prayer rug.

I don't want to alarm you, fellow Americans, but... if Breitbart's goon squad is correct in its analysis, we are in for a whole new brand of Islamic terror sleeper cell on the homeland. If these invisible jihadis can cleverly disguise their prayer rugs as fading and torn Adidas soccer jerseys, what else can they do?


sorry, can't seem to get pics:

2. Conservatives freak out after mistaking soccer jersey for ‘Muslim prayer rug’ left at border

Adding to unfounded worries that immigrant children attempting to enter the U.S. are reintroducing a panoply of diseases such as Ebola and dengue fever, conservatives grew more agitated yesterday after “American security contractors” found what they believed to be a “Muslim prayer rug” abandoned near the Arizona border.

According to Adam Weinstein at Gawker, the “rug” is actually a diamond-patterned Adidas soccer jersey.

A spokesperson for American Patriot, Three Percent — a self-styled militia patrolling the Mexican/U.S. border — contacted Breitbart.com and relayed the discovery of the ‘rug’ Monday night, just south of Sierra Vista in Coronado national forest.

According to the spokesman, Matthew Leber, the “patrol” was walking through a wash when he spied something on the ground.

As I pointed out in the other thread http://www.democraticunderground.com/10025226897 any piece of clothing that contains a numeral on it has Arabic writing. These dumb asses need to learn some history.
