'Un-Islamic' haircut gets the chop...
Gulf Daily News ^ | August 24 2003

Posted on 08/24/2003 7:22:36 AM PDT by knighthawk

A Malaysian teenager was given a forced haircut by Muslim authorities who deemed his punk-style "Mohican" un-Islamic.

The Star newspaper reported yesterday that the unnamed 17-year-old - described as a high school dropout - was caught by the Islamic Development Unit of Kota Baru, Kelantan, a north-eastern state controlled by the Islamic political party PAS.

The newspaper said officials lectured him against emulating "destructive culture" before taking the scissors to his red-dyed Mohican. Kelantan and neighbouring Terengganu are two of Malaysia's 13 states where the Parti Islam se-Malaysia (PAS) holds power.

There's probably more truth to that than most of us care to admit.

It's the Spirit Lake thing isn't it? He was acclaimed a prophet by the Iriquois so the Moslems have to reject everything including the haircuts.

Guess they won't be stopping by the nation to buy cheap cigarettes either, eh?!

Are these creatures by any chance socialists? Socialists have been known to give free haircuts, from time to time.

1. Could be considered a crime against humanity to do so.(note: 'humainity' describing islamist may not be applicable)

2. Are parachutes necessary?

Not too many years ago, he would have gotten it shaved off in the United States because it was "un-Christian". Probably still would in some parts of the country.

And after receiving an "Islamic" haircut, he was told to be a good Muslim and go blow himself up in a crowd of Jews.

Care to give US, say, two examples to back that assertion of moral equivilency?

Actually in any crowd comprised of those of US who enjoy the superiority of Judeo-Christian Civilization -- and who remind them of the gross inferiority of their own sub-culture and lack of any visable civilization.

Islamofascists, like those of the false-fuerher, muhhummid's, students, including Marx and Engels and Lenin -- and the false-prophet, Hitler -- and Stalin and Mao et al, aren't after only Jews -- and even then not specifically because they're Jewish.

It's the fact of the superiority of our Culture and of our Civilization that -- again, by reminding them of the gross inferiorority of their own sub-culture -- incites their envy-motivated and hatred and rage-engined frenzy.

The Israelis, it's true, are handy and can be blown up at on the cheap -- but it's the pizza parlors and dance halls that are attacked -- not the synagogues. But the Jewish People weren't the islamonazis' targets on September 11 2001 or at or on any of our embassies, ships, airliners, naval vessels, German night clubs etceteras.

The United States of America and Human Civilization itself were!

Please don't forget Passover seders, Bar Mitzvahs and worshippers returning from the Western Wall.

I'm not sure what your point is, but if you think the islamofascists are not attacking Jewish religious sites you are wrong.

You must not live in the deep south. If you did, you wouldn't need examples... you'd have witnessed it yourself.

That's pretty fine abstract hyperbole.

Now about those two examples?

That shows.

But you nonetheless gave vent as if you were?

To clarify: My point is that the Jewish People -- and in no way to detract from the fact we/they have for thousands of years been treated and continue to be treated like swine -- are not the primary target.

That honor falls to our very Judeo-Christian Civilization -- of which The Jewish Nation is but our furthest out-post and most exposed and vulnerable front-line fort.

We Civilized Peoples are all in this together -- and will lose sight of that fact only at our mortal peril!

Blessings -- Brian
