al-Qaeda Cosmo: Think about a subscription for the jihadi lady in your life
The Daily Mail UK has the publishing particulars:
Dubbed ‘Jihad Cosmo’, the glossy magazine’s front cover features the barrel of a sub-machine gun next to a picture a woman in a veil.
There are exclusive interviews with martyrs’ wives, who praise their husbands’ decisions to die in suicide attacks.
The slick, 31-page Al-Shamikha magazine – meaning The Majestic Woman – has advice for singletons on ‘marrying a mujahideen’.
Readers are told it is their duty to raise children to be mujahideen ready for jihad.
And the ‘beauty column’ instructs women to stay indoors with their faces covered to keep a ‘clear complexion’.
They should ‘not go out except when necessary’ and wear a niqab for ‘rewards by complying with the command of Allah Almighty’.
… A trailer for the next issue promises tips on skin care – and how to wage electronic jihad.
We have no smart ass closing line for this story. We are mute with amazement.
We must have been napping when the American Muslims rose as one and took that noble stand against terrorism, because we completely missed it. But it must have happened, because President Obama said so and he wouldn’t lie.

White House spokesman Denis McDonough always keeps a pencil behind his ear so he can write down any other hilarious thoughts
The Associated Press fills in the blanks in our memory. And probably yours, too:
The White House on Sunday praised American Muslims for helping fight violent extremism, but a House leader on terrorism issues said they aren’t cooperating enough with law enforcement to counter the radicalization of young followers by al-Qaida-linked groups.
Deputy National Security Adviser Denis McDonough, speaking at an interfaith forum at a Northern Virginia mosque, commended its members for taking “an unequivocal stand against terrorism.”
“You’ve sent a message that those who perpetrate such horrific attacks do not represent you or your faith, and that they will not succeed in pitting believers of different faiths against one another,” McDonough said.
We’re picturing members of the mosque looking around at each other and saying, “Whatchu talking about, Denis?”
Australian Broadcasting Company host Jon Faine recently interviewed convicted terrorist and former Gitmo resident David Hicks.
Australian Broadcasting Company host Jon Faine recently interviewed convicted terrorist and former Gitmo resident David Hicks.
Hicks was as quick to anger as you might expect a convicted terrorist to be. Faine, on the other hand, was merely quick. Make sure you read the whole transcript just to set up Faine’s closing line.
Aussie talk show host Jon Faine learned that it's just not possible to be polite to a terrorist
Hicks: I don’t think you’ve read my book, that’s correct?
Faine: No, I’ve not read your book.
Hicks: Are you aware that I’ve even written a book?
Faine: I’m aware that you’ve written a book called Guantanamo: My Journey. When it arrived at the radio station we asked if you were available. We were told you were not, so I didn’t read it.
Hicks: What do you mean by that?
Faine: Well, this was last year I think it came out, didn’t it?
Hicks: It came out in the middle of October.
Faine: Yeah, so at the stage the book arrived you were not available so I didn’t read a book for someone I wasn’t going to interview.
Hicks: Oh, fair enough. I’d have thought you had an interest in this area and obviously you knew you’d be speaking to me, you would read about it.
Faine: I was told I’d be speaking to you about an hour ago, so I haven’t been able to read your book in an hour, so keep going, though. If you renounce terrorism, what’s led to your change of heart?
Hicks: Nothing’s led to my change of heart. It’s a bit difficult to discuss this with someone who’s not read my book. There’s tens of thousands of Australians out there who have read my book and even before then were informed enough to know differently.
Faine: Well, I plead guilty that I haven’t read your book. You plead guilty to terrorism. I think your offence is the greater. Can we discuss it, please?
Two U.S. airmen were shot and killed in Germany on Wednesday by a man screaming, “Allahu Akbar.” The Perry Mason of presidents is now sifting through the clues to determine why this teabagger committed such a horrible crime.
Two U.S. airmen were shot and killed in Germany on Wednesday by a man screaming, “Allahu Akbar.” The Perry Mason of presidents is now sifting through the clues to determine why this teabagger committed such a horrible crime.
The Politico reports:
President Obama says the government will “spare no effort” to determine why two American airmen were killed and two others were wounded in a shooting in Frankfurt, Germany.
“I’m saddened, and I am outraged, by this attack that took the lives of two Americans and wounded two others. I think the American people are united in expressing our service to those who were lost,” Obama told reporters in a surprise appearance in the briefing room. “We are praying for a speedy recovery for those who were injured.”
Obama promised that “we will spare no effort” to figure out “how this outrageous attack took place.”
“We don’t have all the information yet,” he told reporters. “You will be fully briefed as we get more information.” He added that the attack is a “stark reminder” of the “extraordinary sacrifices” made by the members of the military.
Have you ever heard a guy who’s “outraged” speak with less passion?
The guy got fired? Really? That seems a bit harsh. We think they should have given him a special bonus for creativity on the job.

The Daily Mail UK has the details of the marital mayhem:
James Brolin may want to give this idea serious consideration next time Barbra Streisand leaves the country
An immigration officer tried to rid himself of his wife by adding her name to a list of terrorist suspects.
He used his access to security databases to include his wife on a watch list of people banned from boarding flights into Britain because their presence in the country is ‘not conducive to the public good’.
As a result the woman was unable for three years to return from Pakistan after travelling to the county to visit family.
The tampering went undetected until the immigration officer was selected for promotion and his wife name was found on the suspects’ list during a vetting inquiry.
The Home Office confirmed today that the officer has been sacked for gross misconduct.
There’s a lesson to be learned from this. And the lesson is, quick, someone find out when Barbra Streisand’s next international tour is scheduled.
Another day, another opportunity for us to admit that we can’t keep track of who hates who in the madcap world of Muslims. It’s bad enough that the have all the damn oil, but they have a near monopoly on hate, too.

"Scorecards! Get your scorecards! You can't tell the bombers without a scorecard!"
CNN does its best to keep score:
A suicide bombing that killed at least 13 people in the Pakistani city of Lahore on Tuesday targeted Shiite Muslims, a Sunni militant group’s spokesman told CNN in claiming responsibility for the attack….
Meanwhile, police in Karachi, another major Pakistani city, said one police officer was killed and five people were injured in an explosion. Authorities were investigating the cause.
The Muslim maniacs blow each other up on a daily basis. But here in the civilized world, we can’t even say the word bomb because it’s called violent rhetoric.
If you’re a fanatical Muslim terrorist strapping a bomb to your chest and looking to blow something or someone up you might blame the fact that your mother and father have had the same last name since birth.
Don’t blame Akbar. Blame his father and mother and his aunt and his uncle, who may just be the same people.
It seems that everybody is looking for an excuse these days. Everybody is looking for something to blame their actions on.
If you’re an incompetent boob failing at the job of being President – despite the greatest advantages of press and public goodwill – you might blame George Bush.
Little Akbar and his father who is also his uncle and his cousin and his brother
If you’re a psychotic moonbat who shoots politicians and innocent civilians at grocery stores you might blame talk radio.
And if you’re a fanatical Muslim terrorist strapping a bomb to your chest and looking to blow something or someone up you might blame the fact that your mother and father have had the same last name since birth.
Big Peace brings us Danish psychologist Nicolai Sennels’ essay on the matter:
First cousin marriages have been the tradition in many Muslim families for innumerable generations. Such marriages increase the risk of negative mental and physical consequences. My article “Muslim inbreeding: Impacts on intelligence, sanity, health and society” details extensive research data on the subject. In brief, inbreeding through consanguineous marriages increases the risk of depression and schizophrenia.
The risk of serious illnesses or handicaps increases by up to 1800 percent. Risk of mental retardation increases with 400 percent. Research shows that the IQ is 10-16 points lower in children born from blood related parents and that abilities related to social behavior and empathy develops slower in inbred babies. Such facts might make several pieces fall into place for many people.
And so there you have it. In the end it isn’t that the terrorist have just gotten their wires crossed. And it isn’t irreconcilable differences with the west.
It is, in fact, irreconcilable similarities between their gene donors that bring about their horrific actions. Incest is what makes the suicide bomber tick.
Attorney General Eric Holder ain’t the brightest attorney general we’ve ever had, but he’s always been loyal. And that makes his comments on terrorism even more surprising.
Attorney General Eric Holder ain’t the brightest attorney general we’ve ever had, but he’s always been loyal. And that makes his comments on terrorism even more surprising.
Attorney General Eric Holder points the finger of blame at Barack Obama
ABC News has the Attorney General’s blunt admission:
“It is one of the things that keeps me up at night,” Holder said. “You didn’t worry about this even two years ago — about individuals, about Americans, to the extent that we now do. And — that is of — of great concern.”
“The threat has changed from simply worrying about foreigners coming here, to worrying about people in the United States, American citizens — raised here, born here, and who for whatever reason, have decided that they are going to become radicalized and take up arms against the nation in which they were born,” he said.
Now hold on just a darn minute, Mr. Attorney General. We thought the administration’s official position was that George Bush’s flawed policies had caused terrorism. Yet now you’re saying that radicalized American terrorists have become a problem in the last two years?
Let’s see, now who’s been President for the last two years.
Hey, that’s Barack Obama, isn’t it?
Spread the word: Eric Holder thinks his boss is the new Bushitler.
The First Lady announced her plan to put salad bars in 6,000 American schools. Now comes word that al Qaeda is plotting to poison salad bars.
Is Michelle Obama working with the terrorists to kill American children?
Last month the First Lady announced her multi-billion dollar plan grand plan to put salad bars in 6,000 American schools.
Now comes word from CBS that salad bars may be the next target of terrorists. The former Tiffany network said it has confirmed “credible” threats that terrorists want to target salad bars and buffets by spiking the greens with deadly poisons such as ricin and cyanide.
CBS News reports:
In online propaganda al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula has praised the cargo attack, part of what it called “Operation Hemorrhage.”
The propaganda says in part, “…attacking the enemy with smaller but more frequent operations“ to ”add a heavy economic burden to an already faltering economy.”
Manuals and videos on jihadist websites explain how to easy it is to make both poisons.
“Initially it would look very much like food poisoning,” said St. John’s University professor of pharmaceutical sciences Dr. Susan Ford.
She showed how little of each poison could be fatal by putting a small amount of poison in cups.
That incompetent Bush administration only emphasized the three R’s: readin’, ‘ritin, ‘rithmetic. Leave it to the Obama administration to add a fourth one: ricin.
He is the Honorable, but not particularly well-informed James R. Clapper, Director of National Intelligence. Remarkably, Clapper’s display of ignorance -– he is completely unaware of the fact the Great Britain just arrested a dozen Muslim terrorists in a huge nationwide plot -– was in the same Diane Sawyer interview that yielded Janet Napolitano’s 7/24/364 quote.

(It’s Christmas -– give yourself a present and skip ahead to the 3:35 mark so you don’t have to listen to the rest of their nonsense.)
Napolitano said the day before this interview that the Brits have come up with no evidence to indicate that the plot was aimed at the United States, but what the hell. Shouldn’t a guy with the title Director of National Intelligence know about a major terror bust just carried out by our top ally?
Even Sawyer is stunned by the fact that he doesn’t.
That’s the dumb Clapper. And now, for comparison purposes only, here’s the Smart Clapper. “Clap on, clap off, clap on, clap off, Smart Clapper.”
Let’s see. Fort Hood shooter, Muslim. Underpants bomber, Muslim. Times Square bomber, Muslim. Christmas bomber, Muslim. Hmmmm. Could there be some link between these guys that we’re overlooking?

Not if New York Congressman Peter King has anything to say about it. The new chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee says one of the first orders of business for the new Republican majority will be to investigate Muslim radicalization in the United States.
It’s about friggin’ time, isn’t it?
King spoke to Fox News on Sunday and said:
“Fact is, no one had a closer relationship to the Muslim community than I did before September 11. Since then I’ve been disappointed, though, by the number of their leaders who would not cooperate with law enforcement. There are actual cases in this country where imams direct their members not to cooperate with law enforcement on very serious investigations. And when you talk to law enforcement people around the country including this area here they will say they do not yet have the level of support that we need. Now, the overwhelming majority of Muslims are good people. But for whatever reason the people in their leadership are not cooperative and I believe it’s important to have this investigation on radicalization of the Muslim community. We’ve seen what happened in England. We know al Queda is trying to recruit people over here such as they did with the Subway Bomber here in New York last year. The attempted subway bombing, the Times Square bombing – these are all people living legally in the United States.”
Those may not have been Muslim Asra Nomani’s exact words, but we’re pretty sure that’s the gist of it. She tells CNN that airport security seems designed to offend everyone equally rather than to nab actual terrorists.

A contributor to The Daily Beast, she tells CNN that airport security seems designed to offend everyone equally rather than to nab actual terrorists.
Nomani, a Muslim, says profiling should be at the heart of our security efforts. It makes much more sense, she says, to look for realistic threats and to allocate our resources accordingly. She notes that profiling works well in other security efforts – in the war on drugs, for example, Colombians are watched far more closely than, say, Belgians.
Asra, honey, how long have you been in this country? Have you ever watched CNN? Have you ever read the Daily Beast?
Keep up this kind of talk and Muslims will accuse you of blasphemy. Liberals will accuse you of heresy. And the TSA will accuse you of violating their right to frisk nuns.
Here are our top twelve lunatic lib comments at the reliably lunatic lib Huffington Post, about the arrest of the Portland bomber, Mohamed Mohamud.
The FBI arrested a 19-year old immigrant neer-do-well named Mohamed Mohamud (MoMo to his friends, we assume) who tried to use a car bomb to kill thousands of Christians celebrating the Christmas season in downtown Portland, Oregon.
Cause for celebration? Reason to congratulate the FBI for a job well done? Time to breathe a sigh of relief? Not if you’re a reader of the Huffington Post.
Here are our top twelve lunatic lib comments at the reliably lunatic lib HuffPo.
Don't you think Mohamed Mohamud should have been from Walla Walla?
1. sillyfrog
This is the perfect age for the military mostly because this age group can easily be influenced. The older law officers know this. I hope a smart good lawyer gets this kid out of this mess and gets him on a better path.
2. writersbloc
As a Black kid, foreign and Muslim, I can imagine him being on the receiving end of taunts and harassment, or just isolation. Or maybe he’s a sociopath. Maybe his mom didn’t hug him enough. Maybe people won’t stop asking him about Somali pirates.
3. MNmommy
Look at this young man’s beautiful face. He could have been redirected to modeling instead of encouraged in terrorism by the FBI. What does that say about us?
4. BIG JOHN
What’s worse, what this guy tried to do or what the teabagger who stumped the woman in the head did? I just wonder.…
5. HUFFPOST SUPER USER capt ayhab
How wonderful. Our entire intelligence apparatus is engaged in targeting a 16 year old Somalian named Mohammad, approaching him with fame and glory, wait till he is 18, teaching him how to build a bomb. Better yet build one themselves and detonate in remote area. Buy him a van, fill it with fake explosives. Get him a cell phone, give him a number to dial to explode the device in crowded and the arrest him.
6. photog606
ANOTHER “terrorist” manufactured out of whole cloth… the FBI only had to supply the time, the location and the phony bomb… then swoop in to save the gullible US citizenry from a scenerio THEY set-up and created.
7. harmlesstree
And I am sure this attempted terrorist attack, by a Somali, has nothing to do with what the U.S. has done to his homeland, just like 9-11, and all the other acts of Islamic terrorism directed against us, had nothing to do with the brutal foreign policy America conducts within the Islamic world? I must say, I love sanctimonious Americans whose government is, and has been since WW2, the greatest purveyor of violence, to borrow a line from Martin Luther King, in the world ( the U.S. is literally responsible for the deaths of millions of innocent people over the last 60 years) lecturing Muslims about violence!
8. Olethea
Please make an attempt to educate yourself. Religious terrorism is not limited to one religion. Here you go: The Christian Militia plot against law enforcement
9. Johnny Steps
This shouldn’t even be news, and the fact that the mouthbreathers are insisting this is validation of the efforts of our right wing anti terror campaigns is just insulting to those of us with anything resembling intelligence.
10. Earl
Do you think that muslim kids might feel a bit more “American” if we weren’t reserving public spaces for christian-only ceremonies?
11. EarDrummer
If america would learn humility then we wouldn’t have to worry about people trying to kill us, as it is, america’s lack of humility obligates people to kill us.

The FBI has hundreds of these muslim sleeper patsies. Whenever the public gets uppity about police state measures, they activate one.
It’s fair to say that the Taliban employ the world’s worst suicide bombers: one in two manages to kill only himself.
The Atlantic points out that the Taliban may be the Keystone Kops of terrorists:
Taliban suicide bomber academy. There's a reason they call them suicide bombers and not homicide bombers.
To be sure, some terrorists are steely and skilled—people like Mohamed Atta, the careful and well-trained head of the 9/11 hijackers. Their leaders and recruiters can be lethally subtle and manipulative, but the quiet truth is that many of the deluded foot soldiers are foolish and untrained, perhaps even untrainable…
Nowhere is the gap between sinister stereotype and ridiculous reality more apparent than in Afghanistan, where it’s fair to say that the Taliban employ the world’s worst suicide bombers: one in two manages to kill only himself. And this success rate hasn’t improved at all in the five years they’ve been using suicide bombers, despite the experience of hundreds of attacks—or attempted attacks. In Afghanistan, as in many cultures, a manly embrace is a time-honored tradition for warriors before they go off to face death. Thus, many suicide bombers never even make it out of their training camp or safe house, as the pressure from these group hugs triggers the explosives in suicide vests. According to several sources at the United Nations, as many as six would-be suicide bombers died last July after one such embrace in Paktika.
Did we say Methodist? Our mistake. We meant to say Muslim. Wonder if Juan Williams ever flew on an airplane with this guy.
Did we say Methodist? Our mistake. We meant to say Muslim. Fox News has the story:
Farooque Ahmed's Washington, DC subway plot blew up in his face
Farooque Ahmed, 34, of Ashburn, Va., was arrested today by the FBI and charged with providing material support to terrorists and collecting information for a terrorist attack. “It’s chilling that a man from Ashburn is accused of casing rail stations with the goal of killing as many Metro riders as possible through simultaneous bomb attacks,” said Neil MacBride, the U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia. “Today’s arrest highlights … our ability to find those seeking to harm U.S. citizens and neutralize them before they can act.”
According to an indictment filed in U.S. Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, between April 2010 and Oct. 25, Ahmed repeatedly met with individuals he thought were affiliated with Al Qaeda to discuss “jihad.”
Wonder if Juan Williams ever flew on an airplane with this guy.

Don’t ask John Brennan, Obama’s counter terrorism czar, about any of the radical positions he may have taken in the past. He’s a bit touchy about the subject.
Note to reporters: Don’t ask John Brennan, Obama’s counter terrorism czar, about any of the radical positions he may have taken in the past. He’s a bit touchy about the subject.
Case in point: Brennan paid a visit to the Washington Times and they had the nerve, the temerity, the balls to ask him about his comment that a 20% recidivism rate among Gitmo detainees wasn’t too shabby and about his comment that “jihad was a legitimate tenet of Islam.”
Brennan’s response to the legitimate questions was to jump up and flee the Times’ office.
The Washington Times reports:
Mr. Brennan had visited the Washington Times Editorial Board on June 24 as a result of a June 11 Washington Times editorial he objected to. It did not take long for the White House counter-terrorism adviser to lose his temper with our editorial board’s questions regarding what he previously said about individuals who become terrorists.
Mr. Brennan cut the meeting short and stormed out of our offices thereafter following a question posed by senior editorial writer Jim Robbins. Referring to a quote Mr. Brennan said in May, calling jihad a “legitimate tenet of Islam,” Mr. Robbins looked to discuss the concept of jihad further with the Obama administration adviser.
Just one question: If our counter terrorism czar can’t handle some newspaper reporters, how’s he going to handle those pesky terrorists?
Sad, sad news from Algeria. Forty al-Qaeda terrorists died slow, painful deaths earlier this month when they were infected by the black plague they were trying to turn into a biological weapon.
Sad, sad news from Algeria. Forty al-Qaeda terrorists died slow, painful deaths earlier this month when they were infected by the black plague they were trying to turn into a biological weapon.
The Telegraph UK has the ironic, bubonic news:
This is the black plague? We thought Jesse Jackson was the black plague.
It was initially believed that they could have caught the disease through fleas on rats attracted by poor living conditions in their forest hideout.
But there are now claims the cell was developing the disease as a weapon to use against western cities.
Experts said that the group was developing chemical and biological weapons.
Dr Igor Khrupinov, a biological weapons expert at Georgia University, told The Sun: “Al-Qaeda is known to experiment with biological weapons. And this group has direct communication with other cells around the world.
“Contagious diseases, like ebola and anthrax, occur in northern Africa. It makes sense that people are trying to use them against Western governments.”
It’s only fair, you might say, that people who want to live in the 14th century should die of a 14th century disease.
A group of militants were busy in planting a mine on the road in Nahr-e-Sufi village, Chardara district Monday afternoon when the device went off prematurely killing three on the spot.
Their new slogan: Taliban the bomb!
Seventy-two virgins to check stand ten, please. Seventy-two virgins to check stand ten.
The Xinhua News Agency has the feel good details:
Three Taliban militants were killed as their mine exploded prematurely in Afghanistan’s northern Kunduz province, the Afghan Interior Ministry said in a press released on Tuesday.
“A group of militants were busy in planting a mine on the road in Nahr-e-Sufi village, Chardara district Monday afternoon when the device went off prematurely killing three on the spot,” the press release added.
Cue Queen singing “Another One Bites the Dust.” Or three.
The demand for virgins is considerably higher in Afghanistan than it is in, say, Al Gore’s hotel room. And as long as idiot jihadists keep blowing themselves up with their own bombs, that situation should remain unchanged.
Another 15 jihadists have requisitioned their allotment of virgins
The demand for virgins is considerably higher in Afghanistan than it is in, say, Al Gore’s hotel room. And as long as idiot jihadists keep blowing themselves up with their own bombs, that situation should remain unchanged.
MonstersAndCritics.com has the details on the jihadists’ latest virgin requisition:
15 Islamists, including foreign fighters, have blown themselves up when the bombs they were building detonated prematurely inside an Afghan Mosque.
Eight Arab, five Pakistani and two Afghan militants were killed when bombs they were making exploded prematurely inside a mosque in eastern Afghanistan, the Interior Ministry said Sunday.
The insurgents were assembling bombs in Desi Mosque of Yousifkhela district in the south-eastern province of Paktika on Friday, the ministry said.
Pakika borders the Pakistani town of Wana, where Taliban militants are said to have training bases. Afghan officials have repeatedly blamed Islamabad for not doing enough to clamp down on cross-border infiltration by insurgents.
Got that? They blew themselves up while making bombs in a mosque. But if our troops were to storm that mosque, we would undoubtedly hear the dreary refrain that it was one of the holiest sites in all of Islam.
And holy it would appear to be, at least for those who worship wanton death and destruction.
Oopsie! Qari Zafar, a commander of Pakistani militants, has accidentally punched his own one-way ticket to Paradise.
Oopsie! Qari Zafar, a commander of Pakistani militants, has accidentally punched his own one-way ticket to Paradise.
MSNBC reports on Zafar’s Self-Inflicted Virgin Tour 2010:
Qari Zafar has assumed room temperature, which coincidentally, is still about 98.6 degrees in Waziristan
Pakistani militant commander, Qari Zafar, who was allegedly involved in the attack on the U.S. consulate in Karachi on March 2, 2002, was killed by an explosive in North Waziristan a few days ago.
The United States had announced $5 million award for his capture. Zafar belonged to Lashkar-e-Jhangvi and was wanted by the government for several terrorist attacks in Pakistan, including masterminding the Marriott Hotel bombing.
His close aides confirmed he was killed as he touched some explosives dumped inside his guesthouse. Militant sources said a meeting of Punjabi Taliban was in progress in North Waziristan to choose his replacement.
All you ever hear is “If you die while committing jihad, you go to paradise and get 53 or 72 or 99 virgins (or whatever today’s number is). But we never hear them say “beautiful virgins.”
So we have a question about the whole virgin thing. What happens if you blow yourself up, get to Paradise and find out the reason your 99 virgins are virgins is that they’re so fat, ugly and repulsive that no one wanted them?
Tavis Smiley is a moron. But he’ll be quick to tell you that he’s a Christian moron. Albeit, a Christian moron who believes his Christian brothers and sisters commit mass murder on a daily basis.
Tavis Smiley is a moron. But he’ll be quick to tell you that he’s a Christian moron. Albeit, a Christian moron who believes his Christian brothers and sisters commit mass murder on a daily basis.
Here he is in a discussion with Ayann Hirsi-Ali:
Ayann Hirsi-Ali: Somehow this guy got in his mind that killing other people would be a great thing to do and he would be rewarded for it in the hereafter… Smiley: But Christians do that every single day, in this country. Ali: Do they blow people up… Smiley: Yes, Christians, every day…people walk into post offices…people walk into post offices, they walk into schools, that’s what Columbine was. I mean, I could do this all day long. There are so many more examples of Christians — and I happen to be a Christian, that’s back to this notion of your idealizing Christianity in my mind, to my read — there are so many more examples, Ayaan, of Christians who do that than you could ever give me examples of Muslims who have done that inside this country in which you live and work.
Tavis is right, of course.
The papers are just full of stories about those rabid Christian extremists who gun down their loving Muslim brothers. When they’re not cutting their heads off, that is.
We knew there are a lot of radical Muslim jackasses, but we were shocked to discover that there are also radical Muslim donkeys.
The new face of radical Islam
We knew there are a lot of radical Muslim jackasses, but we were shocked to discover that there are also radical Muslim donkeys.
The Jerusalem Post has the deadly donkey details:
A small Syrian-backed terrorist group in Gaza said its activists blew up a donkey cart laden with explosives close to the border with Israel on Tuesday, killing the animal but causing no human casualties. Abu Ghassan, spokesman for the terrorist group, said more than 200 kilograms of dynamite were heaped on the animal-drawn cart. He added that the explosives were detonated 60 meters from the concrete security barrier that separates the territory from Israel.
The donkey was killed in the blast, but there were no reports of human casualties.Israeli troops routinely patrol the border, and impoverished Gazans often gather rubble in the area.
The Israeli branch of PETA was twice as angry as usual.
