What a coincidence. Johnny reminds me of a puppy, too, piddling and pooping his verbal and intellectual excrement all over the place. Time to grow up, Johnny.
Some US banks are beginning to make special accommodations for Islamic home buyers, to give the appearance of not charging interest (which is forbidden by Islam). Banks, of course, are not in business for altruistic reasons, so the “interest” is actually hidden in the cost of the loan—a hypocritical mind game that appears to satisfy the requirements of Islam.

The story is here: Chicago Sun Times. Exactly how big is the American Muslim market for this nonsense to be worth the banks' time? I guess hypocritical games are about right for the religion that claims to be peace-loving but teaches its adherents to kill everyone who isn't Muslim.
ARGENTINE ex-dictator General Reynaldo Bignone has admitted that 8,000 people were kidnapped and killed during the 1976-83 military regime, and said the church leadership had given its approval to torture practices. In an interview published today in Pagina 12, Bignone said French instructors had taught Argentina's military how to kidnap and torture suspected opponents of the regime, and how to secretly execute them.
Bignone said the ruling junta had asked Roman Catholic bishops in Argentina about the use of torture, and were told that it was permissible under certain circumstances. The interview was secretly filmed by French journalist Marie-Monique Robin, who was working on a documentary.
The regime's brutal repression of opponents was modelled directly on the Battle of Algiers, he said. French instructors gave conferences and consultations on how to carry out the strategy. rest of story
