A 36-year-old Scottish tourist wearing traditional Muslim garb had her blouse set on fire in a bizarre incident outside a pricey Fifth Ave. boutique, police sources said Monday.

The victim noticed the sleeve of her blouse was charred and smoldering in the Saturday night attack, just hours before the ceremony marking the 15-year anniversary of 9/11. She was not badly hurt.

Exactly. Does “noticed her sleeve was charred” = “set on fire”???
Seems like a little editorializing there.

She’s dressed like a terrorist and starts smoking. Why is she surprised by this? The people around her were lucky she didn’t explode.

Terrible that it’s come to this. Unfortunately, in this day and age, you don’t know who’s a civilian minding his or her own business and who’s a combatant (guerilla style.)

If she “noticed” afterwards... could be a stray cigarette flick, too.

Years ago (before no smoking in public places) I was standing in line in an airport and a man nearby dropped flaming cigarette ashes on my suit lapel, burning several small holes in it. When confronted with that he merely shrugged and said "Sorry."

Muslims live all over Europe. Nothing says she is a typical Scot.

That supposedly is the image of him captured after the attack, at a point further along his route. The other attack they mentioned, Emirjeta Zhelili, is a surname most commonly associated with Kazakhstan. Lots of trouble must be associated with Muslims over there I guess.

“Sure it wasn’t a kilt?”

It said she suffered no major injuries, so I assume she wasn’t kilt.

:: If this is true, it’s horrible ::

I disagree; goose and gander.
We, and GBR, allow sexual assault of non-muslim women consistently.
Why should physical assault of muslim women be any different?

Anyone up for the “knockout game”?
Yep...I’m dead serious.

Wrong is wrong, Muslim or no.

And that is from one who has wanted all non-citizen Muslims deported and all citizen Muslims under surveillance since 9/12/01.

You know, that little witch did a really bad thing lying about the cops and the prosecutor. But the worst thing she did was catapult Fat Al Sharpton into national prominence. He has worked more mischief than she could possibly ever have done.
