It wouldn't be so bad if they just stuck to mutilating themselves. But they don't:

Somebody help them out and use a 20Lb mace across their heads.

Well, what are you going to say when the Jews reinstitute the Temple sacrifices in Israel?

Pilgrims beat themselves with iron chains at Imam Abbas shrine in Kerbala, 110 km (70 miles) south of Baghdad, January 27, 2007. Tens of thousands
of Shi'ite Muslims are expected to gather in Kerbala this week to celebrate a religious festival called Ashura, the day when Imam al-Hussein, the 'leader
of the martyrs' and grandson of Prophet Mohammed was killed in Kerbala in 680 AD. REUTERS/Mushtaq Muhammad (IRAQ)

If and when that happens (and it's highly unlikely) I will probably post photos from it.

Of course if you recall the discussion of the Eid photos at FR, you will remember that there are significant differences.

Beating themselves in the head....maybe that's what's wrong with muslimes---they all have brain damage...

[Tzimisce]

I could have swore that I saw this picture with the little girl cut out of it, less than an hour ago on AlJazeera.com with the headline "Iraq Mortar Fire Kills Schoolgirls". Can anyone verify this? Send me a note if you can.

You said -- "If and when that happens (and it's highly unlikely) I will probably post photos from it."

Well, it's not highly unlikely -- it's *absolutely guaranteed* that this will happen from Jesus' words in the Gospels, when He was talking about the "abomination of desolation" when he referenced Daniel. The Temple *has to be in place* and the sacrifices will be *interrupted* at that time -- at the future time that Jesus was talking about. By His own words, these things will be taking place.

Whether you are here or not will depend upon whether you are a Christian or not.

Anything that involves blood, death, beheadings, gore (not Al, I mean the shocking death scenes. Well Al too, but that`s another story) you can bet the muzzies are into it.
