Colorado Muslim Society’s Statement on

The Zazi Terror Case

The Colorado Muslim Society (CMS) was terribly shocked to learn of the possible involvement of Mr. Zazi in a potential terror plot. Mr. Zazi is a new resident of Colorado and a rare visitor of the Colorado Muslim Society. Most of our community members had not met Mr. Zazi or known of his presence within the community.

Writing on behalf of the Colorado Muslims community, the Colorado Muslim Society strongly condemns any acts of violence and terrorism against innocent lives in our country and elsewhere in the world. CMS recognizes that on 9/11/2001 dozens of Muslims also died in the attacks on the twin towers. CMS is opposed to any activities by Muslims, Christians, Jews or any other group that undermine the safety and security of our nation and that can cause harm to the people of America. The Colorado Muslim Society is very vigilant about any activities that may cause harm to our country and/or our community, just as other Churches, Synagogues, schools, corporate headquarters and government agencies should be.  We have been closely working with the authorities to ensure that no harm can come to our city, state and country as a result of anybody’s mischievous activities.  We shall continue to work closely with the authorities and our interfaith partners in Colorado to ensure that our community enjoys the best relationships that provides conducive environment for dialogue and cooperation towards achieving peace and prosperity in our communities and society.
