A recent article in the UK Telegraph offered insights into the many ways that Islamists in Baghdad are making life, by increments, miserable for citizens of the city. Ice producers, crucial in helping people survive in Iraqs 115 degree summer heat, have recently suffered several murders from their ranks. The reason: Their product was not available during the time of Mohammed.
Street venders who sell the popular Middle Eastern food falafel have also lost two of their own in the past few weeks, with other venders now closing their stalls. The same reason is offered by the Islamists, namely, that falafels did not exist at the beginning of Islam. Those who laughed off the warnings are now lying in Baghdad cemeteries.
Islamists have also warned Baghdad residents who wear goatees to shave or else. That prohibition, subject to a visit from a vigilante death squad, is due to the fact that goatees originate from a Jewish facial hairstyle. The article states that barbers have been busier than usual, after a 17 year old was murdered the other month for ignoring the no-goatee warning.
Mayonnaise is also in the sights of the self-appointed morality police. Like goatees, mayonnaise has a Jewish connection. Mayonnaise is made in Israel. Therefore, it, too, joins the long list of things haraam, forbidden to Muslims, according to the Islamists playbook. Needless to say, most restaurants are holding the mayonnaise, with or without the customers request.

Does that mean they're going burn all their mass-produced korans? The printing press didn't come along until mohammad had been in hell for 400 years. How about cars? Bin Laden loves his Land Cruisers. Does he have to get around by camel from now on? What a bunch of ignorant backward pigs.
Tell me this again, the Muslim states have the capability of making bombs, missiles, and tanks but they can't do mayonnaise?
Well, mayo is eggs, oil, and an acid such as lemon juice or vinegar. But the migrating masses didn't have a plethora of modern foods either.
there goes my black eyed peas and corn bread with mayo
Now I know why I love mayo. I hate muslim terrorists.
The media strikes again.
I have a feeling that these a-holes have an exception for explosives and weapons "that weren't around at the time of Mohammed."
If anyone has a need for Miracle Whip I'd suggest adding Karo syrup to mayonnaise.
Yes, it does sound disgusting. But hey, it's Hellman's for me. I was brought up right.
the ultimate mother of all nanny state pings.Ihope no militant anti smoking gnatsies are reading this thread i would hate to give them any ideas
Be careful with that.
I asked a couple of the locals about this and they waved it away. One of them said "This is...what you call an urban myth."
toilet paper.
they used (still do use) their left hand to clean themselves and ate with their right hand, which is why if you are caught stealing they cut off your right hand
It wouldn't surprise me if Miracle Whip were forbidden, as is just about anything civilized and good in that "culture" of death.

No, yummy! They also put in vinegar, and I believe some other spices.
Just egg yolks and oil please.
That's a different product known as "mayonaise."
Remember, Miracle Whip is "Salad Dressing." Think of it as mayo that tastes good.
Mark
Mustard and/or Miracle Whip!

Are you sure that you want to bring up gefilte fish? I've got a friend (who happens to love fish) that's convinced that Jews are insane, because of that one dish... I've never mentioned kishke in his presense.
Mark
Why yes.
I am.
More proof that my user name is right.
Especially when they're knocking off all the ice vendors.
Most of mohammads disgusting writings were plagarized from jews and christians. Along with satanic verses.
It's like a non-stop party in Mohammedland.
For a religion that supposedly worships Allah alone, they expend a lot of effort in idolizing a supposed prophet.
