News 4 took the question to Faizan Syed, the executive director of the St. Louis Chapter of the Council on American Islamic Relations. Go figure, somebody related to a terrorist organization would deny terrorism in a word that’s usually associated with terrorism.
Syed said “Jihad is very common and it doesn’t mean Holy War. It means someone who is struggling, so when you name your kid Jihad, it means someone who is going to struggle to be better.”
Still, Syed said he understands how the word can be viewed as offensive.
“It has the ability to confuse people,” he said, “and because the average American thinks of Jihad as a certain thing, it’s probably better for this individual not to use it.”
News 4 made several requests for an on-camera interview with a representative of the Missouri Department of Motor Vehicles on the State’s reasons for allowing the JIHAD plate, but no one was made available to talk.
This begs the question of what would happen if a Muslim person claimed offense at a license plate that said “BACON 1”. Would “bacon” be banned from license plates? Most likely. Heaven forbid, a Muslim gets offended, but when it comes to offending the rest of us, by all means, do.
How’s that for hypocrisy?
