- There's the mosque burned during the arson attack on the Crazy Water Park in Gaza as reported by The Palestinian Centre for Human Rights
- There is the mosque in Lebanon, burned down during a confrontation in August between Hezbollah and Al Ahbash
- There's the Turkish general who admitted he ordered the burning of a mosque as part of psychological warfare operations in 1974.
- And now--Afghanistan, as noted by Legal Insurrection:
The Taliban have murdered the head of Kunduz province, along with 14 other people, in a bombing today at a mosque in the neighboring province of Tahkar. The governor had been outspoken in his opposition to the Taliban and allied terror groups operating in the north.
Governor Muhammad Omar was killed while worshiping during Friday prayers at the Spinghar mosque in Taluqan, the provincial capital of Takhar province, Pajwhok Afghan News reported. Omar regularly attended Friday prayers at the Spinghar mosque. The Taliban are thought to have planted the bomb in the mosque prior to the service, and detonated it during prayers. Among those also killed in the blast was the prayer leader of the mosque.
Legal Insurrection is cynical about worldwide outrage.
How about some Muslim outrage.
