But this is...

All true Muslims were saddened and angered on Tuesday after they heard the unconfirmed news reports saying that Margaret Hassan had been killed in Iraq. Many reacted by saying, “This is not Islam.”
Mrs. Hassan, who was the director of the Baghdad office of the relief organization Care International, was kidnapped on October 19 in Baghdad. She was born in Ireland, but moved to Iraq over 30 years ago after marrying an Iraqi citizen.
No group has claimed responsibility for the act and the killers never accused her of any crime.
Resistance to occupation is legitimate and acceptable according to Islamic law (sharia) and international law, but those codes also include rules of engagement for resistance fighters.
Killing civilians is haram (forbidden) in Islam. One does not have to consult Islamic scholars to learn this. Indeed, every Muslim child knows it.
It is odd that these people who claim that they want to establish a state based on Islamic law would so brazenly flout the sharia. Their actions tarnish the image of Islam, leading one to conclude that something else must be going on.
The recent wave of kidnappings and murders of civilians in Iraq actually harms the cause of Islam. These actions set back efforts to end the occupation of Iraq.
Those who seek to prolong the occupation of Iraq and prevent or delay the establishment of a democratic government in that country benefit from these acts.
Certain Western governments and corporations do not want to see a stable and democratic Iraq. Rather, they are taking advantage of the recent terrorist acts to implement their policy of control through managed chaos. If things settle down in Iraq, stability could spread through the region, thwarting the managed chaos strategy of the enemies of Islam. Who are these people that are carrying out acts of violence against civilians?
According to one theory, they have been hired by the CIA and other intelligence agencies to destabilize the region and promote a clash of civilizations in order to promote the interests of Western governments and corporations.
Others say they are only hapless fools with the wrong interpretation of Islam who are being manipulated by foreign intelligence agencies.
They could also be misguided Iraqi nationalists being used by the enemies of Islam.
Whatever the case may be, they are working against Islam through their actions.
In light of recent developments in Iraq, Afghanistan, and other parts of the Islamic world, Muslims must stay true to the tenets of the faith and remain alert to avoid falling into the traps of the enemies of Islam.
SHUT YOUR MURDEROUS CAMEL HOLE!
So stupid on so many levels.
These towelheads are seeing the writing on the wall, and are scrambling to get into CYA mode ASAP.
A real tragedy. Her son was gunned down right in front of her, too.
Unless this is the country the Iraqis want to live in, I suggest they do something instead of waiting for American boys to do it.

Murder in the name of God. Only a cult does this. No other religion on earth that I know of.
Thanks!
Islam must assume that every human being is as dumb as is a Muslim:
..."...Killing civilians is haram (forbidden) in Islam. One does not have to consult Islamic scholars to learn this. Indeed, every Muslim child knows it."...
Every Muslim child knows that killing of infidels guarrantees them a place in Mohammed's heaven. Islam is a Master Race theory, not a religion. Most adults use their religion as a guide to successful survivial on the planet. Most adults do not use their religion as a template for murder. Only Islam does that.
Saddened and angered? Yeah, right - that's why there is such an outcry against such evil from the Muslim community....
And this is why Muslims worldwide continue to support such "extremists"....
And this is why Muslim authorities worldwide are taking strong action against such evil "extremists"....
Oh, they aren't? Nevermind....
What is "real" islam? Burning down the Library of Alexandria? Looking for cheap slave girls in a market in Mogadishu? Taking flight school lessons in Florida on a Bank of UAE debit card? What is "real" islam?

But this is...
Of course...it's Bush's fault. Are you sure this wasn't written by a Democrat?
That's just what I was thinking.... Great comment.
Wrong person ;-)
"Killing civilians is haram (forbidden) in Islam. One does not have to consult Islamic scholars to learn this."
Did the Sunday schools get the memo? I don't think they got the memo.
That phrase is pretty much wore out. Can we agree to give it a rest?
Not islam.. INSANELAM.
