Screw 'em if they can't take a joke. It's hard to take these believers in a false prophet seriously

Sir Salman Rushdie celebrates his 60th birthday today in familiar circumstances: he is once again the subject of death threats across the Islamic world.
Eighteen years after the Ayatollah Khomeini issued a fatwa calling on Muslims to kill him, a government minister in Pakistan said yesterday that Rushdie’s recent knighthood justified suicide bombing.
The question of blasphemy in The Satanic Verses, Rushdie’s 1988 tale of a prophet misled by the devil, remains a deeply sensitive issue in much of the Muslim world and the author’s inclusion in the Queen’s Birthday Honours last week has inflamed anti-British sentiment.
Gerald Butt, editor of the authoritative Middle East Economic Survey, told The Times: “It will be interpreted as an action calculated to goad Muslims at a time when the atmosphere is already very tense and Britain’s standing in the region is very low because of its involvement in Iraq and its lack of action in tackling the Palestine issue.”........."

Why don’t those who call for a fatwa strap the bombs on themselves? Because they know what they call for really does support lies.
It justifies rape, murder, torture, lying, conquest and terror. Everything Satan is so fond of.
Its people are ruled by emotion rather than reason.
Rage seems to be the constant motivating source of islam.
Muslims are the slaves of satan. I just can’t see this any other way.
the Muslim world requires Preparation H
First Islamic Axiom: For all x, Muslims are offended by x.
But burning Bibles, rosaries and crosses in Gaza is just fine with the “muslim world.”
Muslim world inflamed ___________.
It was a stupid thing to do. It was bound to rile the islamists up (who cares), but it also riles up moderate muslim opinion (not good) and it honors Salmon Rushdie, who is a total goit - arrogant, elitist, snobbish, idealist, ungrateful, - the archetypal “man who bites the hand that feeds him”. The kind of liberal who schmoozes “gritty working class culture”, but at the same time loathes actual working class people. A man who never practices what he preaches - and not because of personal weakness, but because he thinks he, personally, is “above” it.
Kind of like a literate Al Gore.
OMG! I just literally spewed my beer all over my computer! Thanks alot!
In related news increases in IEDs planted beside trails in Amish-controlled provinces were announced in protest of sales of “The Da Vinci Code”...
“They blowed up real good!”
FUGGEM — they are wayyyyy too emotional.
Because they know what he says in the book is true. Those verses are satanic.
I am so so so sick of anything Muslim . I am sick of their rage , I’m sick of their ideas , opinions , faces , leaders. and smell. I wish they would all go to hell.
PS , the USA is sooooo stupid we allow CARE to nt only operate in this country but we allow it to use our own laws against ourselves. They stole the play book from Jess Jackson and the other race hustlers and they run with it .
Yeah, eccept nobody seems ready to kick them!!!!
