Like the proper way to beat ones wife, how the sun sets in a swamp in the west, drinking camel urine for what ails you, and kill those who oppose the government?

Somebody send Mr. Blair a bacon sandwich.

If he flees, we’ll know the dirty moslems have gotten to him.

......and butchering babies as they sleep, dancing in the streets with the human entrails that you’ve cut out from a Jewish infidel, taking your sword and cutting off the breasts and genitals of a pregnant woman, in her 9th month, and then cutting open her womb, removing the baby to hack it apart in front of the dying mothers eyes ( the Rabbi’s wife in Mumbai), gang rapes, honor killings of your daughters, cutting your wife’s nose off.for disobeying your commands.... sending your young children off to Jihadist day camps so they can be Shahids in the grand old tradition ( Look ma, no hands!... or feet, head,.. torso....) so they can kill the Joooooooooozz, and take over the world and “invite” everyone to the splendor of Islam.

Yes Tony, very practical and way ahead of its time........

I would not mind if Sarah Palin, Michele Bachmann, Jim DeMint, or Herman Cain read the Koran every day - as a way of staying motivated to save western civilization. Reading it as if it had any potential for a positive contribution to the modern world? No, thank you.
