"We condemn this cowardly attack in the strongest terms possible and
ask that the perpetrators be punished to the full extent of the law.
No religious or political ideology could ever justify or excuse such
wanton and indiscriminate violence. The attack was particularly
heinous in that it targeted the all-volunteer army that protects our
nation. American Muslims stand with our fellow citizens in offering
both prayers for the victims and sincere condolences to the families
of those killed or injured."

It would be interesting to know just which 'law' they mean...

Hi y'all - yes the Koran does not specify punishment for those acting
in defense of Allah. Rewards are offered instead.
