‘Marry’ men of Libya - Harems & sharia now OK

Heaven can wait.

Victorious rebels in Libya won’t need to martyr themselves to win an adoring harem of virgins -- one of their governing council’s first orders of business yesterday was lifting restrictions on men having multiple wives.

“As an Islamic country, we adopted sharia as the principal law,” decreed Mustafa Abdul-Jalil, head of the National Transition Council. “Any law that violates sharia is null and void legally.”

The revolutionary then told thousands in Benghazi, the birthplace of the uprising that ended last week with strongman Moammar Khadafy’s death, that all men will again be free to take up to four brides without restriction.

But despite the extra earthly pleasures now afforded to men, Abdul-Jalil offered a kneeled prayer and said fallen fighters are now “somewhere better than here, with God.”

Abdul-Jalil added, in accordance with Islamic law, that bank interest will be capped.

During the Khadafy era, men needed their wives’ permission to marry another woman and banks were generally operated according to Western practices.

Without addressing the sharia issue, President Obama issued a statement congratulating the Libyans.

“After four decades of brutal dictatorship and eight months of deadly conflict, the Libyan people can now celebrate their freedom and the beginning of a new era of promise,” Obama said.

Gee. I'm just so proud that my tax dollars have helped the poor people of Libya enter the modern world! /sarc

I think Obama secretly wants to be in one of those harems.

He wants a big fat hairy Arab to dominate him. Just the thought sends a tingle up his leg.

(I know what mooseshell is going to be dressed as this holloween.)

Add a couple of dancing boys to the caravan and you got a movable Caligula in the desert.

Obama is doing all that he can to advance the cause of Islam, the implementation of Sharia law, and the restoration of the Caliphate. He is achieving great success.

Their man is in the White House.

There is an old saying, if you want to know what people care about, see where they put their capital. The Libyan’s have earned quite a bit of “political” capital and you see where they have chosen to spend it...sex. I have been telling my peers that the entire middle east problem boils down sexually deprived males. If you study the culture its obvious. Suppression brings obsession.

Well, I know Gadafi did a lot of bad things, but I don’t think anyone should die like that.

A civilized man would be against such, Obama cheered for his death, yet the claim was it uncivilized to use ‘waterboarding’. What hypocrites.

And the kind of countries that have this sort of thing, banana republic style politics, often end up finding out they were just supporting the next dictators plan to get in office...

welcome home lackeys and now you are slaves.

We are all going to live to regret NATO’s mistake. Everyone of these strong men we are toppling will be replaced by an Islamic sharia law government. Thats all they know.

"The fact that we are here today to debate raising America's debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the US Government cannot pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government's reckless fiscal policies. Increasing America's debt weakens us domestically and internationally. Leadership means that, the buck stops here. Instead, Washington is shifting the burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our children and grandchildren. America has a debt problem and a failure of leadership. Americans deserve better."

~ Senator Barack H. Obama, March 2006

.
What makes you think that it was a mistake and not something planned in advance?

Europe has been overrun by Islam and we are eagerly awaiting their dominance here in the US.

You only get 4 wives in classical Islam. If the Traditional Mormons get there way we will have polygamy here soon. I don’t worry about this as much as I detest “Honor Killings” and death for all who convert from Islam to another religion.
