Angelina Jolie Speaks Out Against Planned Koran Burning
People Magazine ^ | 9-8-10 | Mary Green

Posted on 09/08/2010 4:55:06 PM PDT by Justaham

Add Angelina Jolie to the growing list of voices opposing a plan by a Florida pastor to burn the Muslim holy book on September 11.

"I have hardly the words," she told reporters in Islamabad, Pakistan, to describe actions "that somebody would do that to somebody's religious book."

Jolie, who is in Pakistan to highlight the plight of flood victims in the country, was asked if she supported Pastor Terry Jones's planned Koran-burning. She answered, "Of course not. Of course not," and praised the response from some U.S. officials who condemned any such action.

Burning the Koran.. the timing could not be worse....... and this is going to end badly, if for no one than our troops, but I fear it will have ramifications few here have the forsight to comprehend.

It’s not about appeasing Islam, it’s about refusing to appease the left. They WANT you to burn that Koran. They want you to make an idiot of yourself in public so they can tell everyone what a bunch of moonbats you and I are.

Jones and pals support the America-hating scam artists Westboro “Baptist” “Church” who go around provoking anger and trolling for lawsuits. That tells you everything you need to know. If anything I understand about God is true, these people aren’t doing His will.

I heard that Sarah Palin is against the Koran burning as well. When Angelina learns that she and Palin are on the same side, she will probably flip flop and be in favor of the burning.

They’re all scared sh*tless that the muzzies will start rioting and committing violent acts in the US, then there will be a hell of a muzzie backlash.

You may not desire to appease anyone...but you are appeasing the muslim world by obeying their demands that our freedom of speech be amended to show sensitivity to their religion (i.e. the Koran must not be defiled...or they will kill us).

The administration would have you believe it endangers our troops because Obama is forcing appeasement down into our military.

So far, Drudge has a list of responses from everyone, but O:

Vatican: ‘Outrageous’...
NYPD: ‘Dangerous’...
Holder: ‘Idiotic’...
Clinton: ‘Disgraceful’...
Palin: ‘Unnecessary provocation’...
FBI: Retaliation ‘Likely’...

Now we can add Jolie: ‘I have hardly the words’

This messed up skank sees nothing wrong with that- in fact she’d probably think it was great to have a messed up daughter like Chastity.

If you don't stand for something, you'll fall for anything.

Angie fell.

I know. I’m mad at myself for even bothering with this crap. A gathering of 50 people that hasn’t even happened yet has gotten more media attention today than Tea Parties with thousands in attendance ever have and ever will. I should just superglue my palm to my face—I’m already spending most of my waking hours in that pose.

I don’t think the Pope understands the ultimate goal of Islamism - it’s not about all happy happy joy joy & getting along & playing nice in then sandbox.

He’s in denial because they haven’t come for him yet.

"and this is going to end badly, if for no one than our troops .."

Then what I had feared .. Has truly happened.

Our Troops have been turned into nothing more than 'Girly Men'!

The THING that 'Gen. Gen. Petraeus' SHOULD have said was .. "BRING IT ON"!
And Hannity calls This Guy one of Histories Greatest Generals?
(They just don't make Generals like Patton anymore)

Before you think about jumping in my $h1t .. I was and am an Old hand at conflicts and how Real Men (and Real Generals) conducted themselves in the time of war.
Make No Mistake .. WE are at war with these slimeballs and whether we burn their Holy Books or not .. Will Not change a Damn thing!

... Revealed Whoa! bulletin, bulletin, bulletin..

Lots of little girls want to be like little boys when playing outside wild and woolly games, sports--not being little beauty queens...so they have been labeled tomboys.. Little boys usually aren't as fussed over, some little girls like the equality. Kids play with kids that live closest to them..a daughter that has only boy siblings..no gender separation at that age--it's free for all fun and games..and then you have to become an adult all to early!

. Her daughter is 4, it's natural so why get all up tight over it. Ridiculous. To even acquaint a 4 year old with a "sexual lifestyles" is improper.

That all changes later on, its natural. If not, then Jolie will love her daughter anyway, as mother-daughter love comes naturally.
