Haven't many military leaders (of all faiths), in the past, prayed to God to help them defeat their enemies? This is nothing new.

I thought these were muslim cult leaders praying. Are you suggesting that there is no difference between a muslim cult leader and a military leader. If so you are probably correct since islam is a cult of war!

[neutrino]

Well, considering how well (Sarcasm alert) the US and Israel seem to be doing in the sitzkreig on terrorism, maybe their prayers to Satan are working.

"O God, destroy the usurper Jews and the vile Christians. O God, destroy the Jews. O God, pour Your anger on them. O God, destroy them. O God, support our Palestinian brothers, give them courage, and have mercy on them and their martyrs, children, and women."

I’m SO glad to know that this fine imam doesn’t really speak for the majority of all muslims who are fine, peace loving supporters of tolerance and democracy. Yes, surely imam al-Badawi is being inundated with angry messages from muslims who give no quarter to this type of hatred. The “arab street” is surely just as vitriolic in condemnation for this type of vile speech as they were in expressing extreme displeasure over the Sept. 11th attacks.

Yes, muslims are our friends, they pray to the same God we do, the koran is just like The Gospels, and islam is a religion of peace…

Concluding, the imam prays to God: "O God, destroy the usurper Jews and the vile Christians. O God, destroy the Jews. O God, pour Your anger on them. O God, destroy them. O God, support our Palestinian brothers, give them courage, and have mercy on them and their martyrs, children, and women."

Just goes to show what happens when an early Judeo/Christian cult goes bad.

[knighthawk]

Islam does not know terrorism. ... O God, destroy the Jews.

Isn't he contradicting himself here? Oh, wait it's islam we are talking. They consider killing off people who disbelieve a good deed.

[knighthawk]

O God, destroy the Jews and their supporters. O God, destroy the Christians and their supporters and followers

O God, destroy the tyrant Jews for they are within your power

O God, destroy the usurper Jews and the vile Christians. O God, destroy the Jews

Religion of peace TV.

If people want on or off this list, please let me know.

[stuartcr]

I was just pointing out the fact that it's not just Muslims that pray to God to smite their enemies.

[Prodigal Son]

Thanks, knighthawk, for the ping. Another keeper.

[Frumious Bandersnatch]

I didn't know that we were at war with Yemen and Saudi Arabia...

[stuartcr]

Sorry, I don't understand the comment.

[thoughtomator]

Well, now you know. And as I learned as a young tot, 'knowing is half the battle'!

Excuse me while I slide a little further to the right of Ariel Sharon...

[exmarine]

Destroy Mecca and Medina, and with them, the satanic fertility cult that seeks to impose 7th century pagan arabian culture on the entire world!

[crystalk]

All of the above prayers were directed of course, not to God as this mistranslation says, but to "Allah," Satan's most popular and successful alias.

If only the West would dare to fight these people, dare once again as it did in its medieval youth, to confront this evil, I think God would yet give us the victory as He did then.

[MissAmericanPie]

You may be more right than you know.

[Frumious Bandersnatch]

Nominally, at least, both Yemen and Saudi-Arabia are allies.  Why are they praying for their friends' destruction?

[aristeides]

These clerics are from Yemen, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar. I do not know if those countries consider themselves to be at war with Israel or not. But they are certainly not at war with the Jews and Christians of the whole world (at least not publicly). So, this is very different from the common practice of clerics of a belligerent country asking God to help them to defeat their enemies.

[stuartcr]

I have no idea.

[stuartcr]

I have no idea who or what they consider their enemies, I was just making a point that throughout history, many have prayed to God to deliver their enemies. It's not just a Muslim thing.
