Airport Debunks Islamic Footwashing Myth

[snopes]

Airport officials are debunking a story posted on the Internet.

The story from WorldNetDaily.com claims that Kansas City International Airport built foot-washing basins for Islamic taxi drivers. The article alleges that airport police are afraid of Middle Eastern men who congregate near the wash areas.

KCI spokesman Joe McBride said the story isn't true.

Thanks for that one. My mom started ranting to me about it last week and couldn't figure out why I just didn't care. Silly me. Of course the Muslim Agenda is behind this - let's ignore the fact that no Muslim students requested this. Of course they'll say that, that's what they want us to think.
