Why, pray tell, do they keep referring to this guy as "far-right?"

[muawiyah]

This sort of thing will warm the cockles of the Islamofascists in France guaranteeing that Turkey gets into the EU on an accelerated basis.

I look at that guys face and see the mask of evil.

by supporters? wtf

This story really made me angry until I realized that the folks who were greeting him probably were not political supporters cheering Agca for shooting the Pope, but friends and relatives who were welcoming him back to the family after his long term of imprisonment.

Maybe they could have been a little more tactful for the cameras, but it does put the incident in a different perspective.

Agca's first task on leaving prison was to negotiate with authorities who say the draft dodger has to undergo his military service, compulsory for every Turkish male, before he is allowed to taste real freedom.

That's it! Brilliant! We should do the same in this country. It's not too late for Slick Willie to fulfill his obligations by shipping out to Iraq.

According to one theory, he was working for the Bulgarian secret service, which was taking orders from the KGB. But a 1986 trial failed to prove the "Bulgarian connection".

Naaaaah!?!

He may not be long for this world if they throw him into a rigorous army regime at age 48 after a long stretch in the cooler.

He met a better man than himself. Maybe it took. Only he knows.

His brother, Adnan, celebrated his release outside the prison walls by slaughtering a sheep, spilling its blood down the street.

Is this a custom? If so, does anyone know the origin?

[VOYAGER]

The first Polish Pope was always convinced he had developed the illness as a consequence of the attempt on his life.

He donated the bullet from his abdomen to the Fatima shrine in Portugal, believing that Our Lady of Fatima had both predicted the assassin's attempt and protected him from death.

Is there an oxymoron in this someplace, hmmm?

[RightOnline]

Gee swell.

Small wonder Islam is so hated around the rest of the world.

Just imagine the welcome Sirhan Sirhan would get if he were released and sent home to the Palestinian Authority.
