Islamic Society of Boston marking their turf?

Since 2003, Daniel Pipes continuously has updated information on the Islamic Society of Boston and local politicians.

July 24, 2008 update: A reader, the producer of L'Afrique (lafrique.com), was surprised to see that the Roxbury Crossing station of the Boston area subway system sports a painting of the nearby Islamic Society of Boston mosque and other Islamic themes. He sent me pictures of the still-unfinished mural and its surroundings, one of which I reproduce here. (For the others, click here, here, here, here, and here).659 [Caption: The Islamic Society of Boston mosque in the background, a Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority mural depicting it in the foreground.]

Comment: As the photographer points out, the Boston public transportation system does not sport crosses, stars of David, or other religious insignia. How did this exception come about? One hopes that Bostonians are not so beat down by ISB litigiousness that they have lost all curiosity about that institution's activities.

Looks like Boston's not an Irish town anymore. This reminds of gang colors and insignia posted all over American buildings, roadways, etc., used as "turf markers."
