I solved the problem last week while sipping a martini in front of my computer.
It wouldn’t occur to me that this couldn’t be fixed by a good dose of nattering and maybe a visit to a local supermarket and boycotting humus for a week or so.
I even went as far as sending a donation (for $10.99) to a charity in Paki.
I say get out the swords and tell those Muzzies off. Damn the consequences! We did it before and we can do it again.
Might makes right. Full speed and don’t spare the topedos!

Here are some of this years efforts by Benedict and the catholic church:
“Dialogue frozen between the Vatican & Islamic University of Al-Azhar”

The dialogue is frozen because of this:
“MESSAGE OF HIS HOLINESS
POPE BENEDICT XVI
FOR THE CELEBRATION OF THE
WORLD DAY OF PEACE
1 JANUARY 2011
RELIGIOUS FREEDOM, THE PATH TO PEACE
....”At present, Christians are the religious group which suffers most from persecution on account of its faith. Many Christians experience daily affronts and often live in fear because of their pursuit of truth, their faith in Jesus Christ and their heartfelt plea for respect for religious freedom. This situation is unacceptable, since it represents an insult to God and to human dignity; furthermore, it is a threat to security and peace, and an obstacle to the achievement of authentic and integral human development.[1]”...

“Pakistani Muslims protested the part of Pope Benedict’s State of the World address where he says the blasphemy law ought to be repealed. Well, Pakistan’s Muslims don’t think it’s wise.”

“Policeman shoots 4 Christians in Egypt, shouting Allah is great
By Paul Zalonski on January 12, 2011 9:39 PM | Permalink | Comments (0)
The online magazine Catholic Culture (here below) carried this story today, which ran yesterday in the AFP, about a Muslim policeman killing Christian women when tensions are already running following the killing of Christians in a church. More sadness for humanity. It is also incredibly sad that the Egyptian Ambassador to the Holy See has stated that the view that Christians are not persecuted. Can you believe it??? The Ambassador’s head is in the sand.
Less than two weeks after a church bombing in Alexandria left 21 Coptic Christians dead, an off-duty policeman shot four Christians on a train, killing a 71-year-old man. A fifth person was also wounded.
“This lunatic went up and down the coach looking for Christians,” said Coptic Orthodox Bishop Morcos of Shobra El-Kheima, who had spoken with witnesses to the shooting. “Seeing a group of girls and women who were not wearing the [Islamic’ veil, he took them for Christians and fired, shouting Allahu Akbar [Allah is great].”
The new attack on Christians came just after the Egyptian government announced that it was recalling its ambassador from the Holy See, in a protest against the Pope’s statement that the country must do more to protect Christians. Before returning to Cairo the ambassador, Lamia Aly Hamada Mekhemar, met with Archbishop Dominique Mamberti, the Vatican’s Secretary for Relations with States.
A Vatican statement after the meeting said that the Egyptian envoy “described the concerns of her government at this present difficult time.” The statement indicated that Archbishop Mamberti “gave assurances that the it also fully shares the Egyptian government’s concern to avoid the escalation of religiously motivated conflict and tensions, and appreciates the efforts being made to that end.”

Why don’t you armchair missionaries go to the Muslim world and just tell them to make nice and convert.
Besides, reading what ONE journalist believes and interprets instead of actually reading what is news and information is just worthy of DU and every liberal outlet.
But that would not stand in the way of good bashing where the authority of the church is not recognized by any of you anyway.
Dealing with Islam is not in any way simple.
It is only simpletons who think it is.
