National President of the Youth Association of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community called for loyalty to America in a Press Conference in Times Square this morning.  Following his interview on Fox News this morning, Mr. Younus spoke to the press and spoke not only about the growing problem of Muslim youth leaning towards extremism but went a step further by stating that Islam requires Muslims to be loyal to the country where they live.  So he boldly declared that Muslim Americans must remain loyal to America or else leave the country if they cannot do so.

Mr. Younus accurately and beautifully represented the true message of Islam, and it is refreshing to see a national leader speak out on this issue, citing Islamic teachings as the basis of this position.  I welcome everyone's thoughts and encourage everyone to support communities like this that are trying to make a positive impact on our society.
