I think we should offer to swap Mohammedans in the United States for Jews and Christians in the emerging Islamic hell holes.

In fact, lets make it a 2-for-1 special. We’ll give them two Mohammedans for every Jew or Christian they send to us.

We will get the better end of the bargain, by far.

I’m sure it was just a wild and amusing coincidence that the Tunisian Islamist leader had just returned from exile. I will have to ask O for clarification.

So much for the 'religion of peace' protecting Christians, Sabians, Jews, and anyone else who believes in God, as explicitly instructed in their own scripture. [2.62] Surely those who believe, and those who are Jews, and the Christians, and the Sabians, whoever believes in Allah and the Last day and does good, they shall have their reward from their Lord, and there is no fear for them, nor shall they grieve.

“Diversity is their strength” or is that nonsense just intended to destroy American and the West only?

Surprised? Still think there are moderate death cultists?

I think it’s a good idea to swap Jews living in hell holes with savage death cultists living in the USA. Free airfare.

Dude, the "security services" were probably lighting the fires.


Today is a good day to die.
I didn't say for whom.

Leave Tunisia, Rabbi. Come to Israel, where Jews shoot back.

That’s only the second Surah - early on when Mohammed was still trying to talk Jews and Christians into following him. When they don’t, he decides that beheading is a more suitable strategy and the tone of the Koran changes accordingly.

I don't doubt it, but I had heard the Koran is not really in chronological order, that it was compiled by the illiterate Mohammad's scribe Omer, or someone else later, from something like a basket of different scriptures in no particular order, with the titles of the surahs not put on them by Mohammad either.

The point I was trying to make is that they're not even following their own prophet's word on treatment of non-Mohammadans. It just gets worse if he's also said 'behead at will' or something - I haven't read the whole thing.

Oh yeah, that is astonishing -- Moslem "security" stands by and does nothing except hand out bottled water to the jihadists. Thanks hennie pennie and thanks dervish for the topic and link in FReepmail.
