Off Topic: 30 Killed in Protest as Outrage over Cartoons Spreads
Ask Suliman and Raheel and Osama (Osama Ibrahim) and many others..

My guess is that it's not Islam the religion that is so violent, but its the pare of the world that most of them come from that is so violent....They have been solving their problems for thousands of years by killing their enemies. |

Because...despite all the politically correct BS commentary to the contrary... -Too much of Islam DOES encourage this sort of criminal behavior. -Their leaders DO remain all too silent about these things (with a few insignificant exceptions). -And let's face it...regardless of what MAY have been an idealized, originally less-violent belief system...has not reached a point where millions advocate murder over cartoons, and the extermination of the Jews in Israel. Just because one's motive for murder is religion...does not make it anything other than murder. These people shouldn't be treated as zealots...they are criminals...killers...murderers--and should be treated as such. If a guy is chanting in the street that he wants you dead, and is encouraging the real, active murder of another...they are accessories in those murders, and should be arrested, tried, and if convicted, imprisoned or worse. The world has been sitting back on their cow-towing arses so long that it takes cartoon-motivated murder and atomic weapons in the hands of Iran before they even begin to open an eye-lid. Sheesh. Yes.....And we can only hope that the apologists wake up in time....... |

"This thread is a joke, how many of you people actually know any
practising Muslims ? none I'd bet, go back to sleep lads." Was it necessary to know any practising Nazis to have an opinion about them? |

There's only 72 virgins you know! That's something to kill for, apparently. Catholic Priests can't have even one of those, so they don't bother to fight it. I dunno. Off topic but WTF. Doug |

"Joseph Kewfi" wrote in message ... snipped other stuff "Their solution to everything that they don't like is to kill." I suppose you think that the born again in the white house was living by the bible when he destroyed a country, killed thousands and celebrated "Mission Accomplished" afterwards? The reality 'we' live in, is built on hypocrisy and double standards. Never a greater truth has been spoken by any man. Islam and the US government plus a few other "mates" are virtually one and the same, although through different means and motivations. |

It is also the misinterpretation of the Koran that makes them believe they must deal the way they do, plus violence is in their blood. |
