Someone stopped him? Why?

Obviously they don't believe in political free speech or freedom of expression. No one should interfere with someone making a statement like this.

Build a man a fire, and he will be warm for a day. Set a man on fire, and he will be warm for the rest of his life.

That right there is wisdom, that is.

...there are many International ANSWER signs in the pro-terrorism crowd.

Why am I not surprised?

How can this palpably anti-American splinter group lead the left around by its nose?

There's only one explanation: the Left is anti-American, too.

Well he's not quite as dumb as this old favorite:

American flag: $25
Gasoline: $2
Cigarette lighter: $2.50
Catching yourself on fire because you are a terrorist a**hole: PRICELESS!

Yes, they are. In fact, they're full of self-loathing -- as Americans, and probably as individuals, too.

I think it's no coincidence that just about every time I've been locked into flame wars with leftists in other forums (fora?), sooner or later it comes out that they have serious mental/emotional issues.

I couldn’t stomach it all. My computer almost melted from the hatred. We live in an upside down, inside out world.

Me, too. So I cheered myself up by watching a few videos of the IDF taking out some more bad guys. Here’s their official YouTube channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/idfnadesk

Begorrah! ‘Tis a rainy country indeed when your jihadist protesters can't even keep themselves lit.

Dumb and Dumber.

Dumb- the guy who sets himself ablaze.

Dumber- the people who put him out.

Wow! The muzzies are raising hell everywhere! Ireland too

Yes. It looks like the fabled "Arab Street" takes you a long way to Tipperary

Nice site. Thanks.

But honestly, I've had enough for one day. Going to watch A-C-phlegm (Achmed) sing Jingle Bombs.

Not suprised about the anti Israeli sentiment in Ireland. After all, the Irish stayed neutral in WII and the IRA shared intelligence with the Nazis.

Andrija Artukovic, the notorious Croatian Nazi interior minister in whose concentration camps 1 million people died lived mighty fine in Ireland after the war... ad nauseum

Here’s one for later: http://www.israelsoldiers.org

Not videos, but the site for the nonprofit Friends of the IDF. A good reputable organization (I used to volunteer in their NYC office and we’ve contributed lots of money over the years) that provides support for Israeli soldiers:

“FIDF helps support social, educational and recreational programs and facilities for the young men and women soldiers of Israel who defend the Jewish homeland. We also provide these services to the families of soldiers who have fallen in defense of Israel. FIDF is a tax-deductible organization by US law.

FIDF support includes building, maintaining and operating 17 modern and sophisticated facilities, establishing and renovating hundreds of clubrooms and fitness rooms on IDF bases, and constant caring for each and every IDF soldier through a variety of unique programs.”

The more that the FIDF can provide in support, the more money the IDF can spend on bullets, bombs, etc.

Probably to prevent “globull warming”, silly!
