I wouldn't call Moses a man of peace and love.

"Foreign Minister Kamal Kharrazi here on Sunday called on Islamic countries to react to an American pastor's insult to Prophet Mohammad"

It isn't an insult if it is the truth.

Not that I'm a big Falwell fan, but when you're right, YOU'RE RIGHT!

Boy they sure hate it when someone actually figures them out huh?

[Migraine]

I'm still waiting for these people to actully refute what Fawell said, rather than just get hysterical over it.

I'm w/ you; they want to say what's wrong with what Falwell said, rather than what he said that was wrong.

In 1989, Iran's late supreme leader Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini issued a fatwa, or religious decree, ordering the death of British author Salman Rushdie over his book "The Satanic Verses", which was deemed to be blasphemous.

However there was no immediate reaction to Falwell's comments from Iran's Shitte clergy or the office of Khomeini's successor, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

Me thinks Khamenei has his hands full with other more pertinent issuses in Iran right now.

How are the Zionists involved with this?

Psssssssssst. the Zionists are behind everthing.

It was the zionists that convinced the CIA to sell heroin to black chilren to finance the Bay of Pigs. It was Zionists that invaded Kuwait wearing Iraqi uniforms.
It was Zionists dressed as Palestinians that blew up that Pizza parlor.
It was Phillippine zionists that beheaded that missionary.

Hitler? Secret zionist.
Stalin? Secret zionist.
Pol Pot? Secret zionist.
Bill Clinton? Just evil.
Yassir Arafat? Secret zionist. See, it's all sooooooo simple.

[who knows what evil?]

I have to admit that I was disappointed to see that Mr. Falwell neglected to mention the 'Prophet's' obession with underage girls. Can't win 'em all...

"I'm still waiting for these people to actully refute what Fawell said, rather than just get hysterical over it."

Well, I hope you're not holding your breath because it ain't gonna happen because they CAN'T refute it.

"Psssssssssst. the Zionists are behind everthing."

I thought President Bush was behind everything. I am so confused.

[GirlShortstop]

What??? No fatwa for bin Laden??? Zawahiri??? Al Qaida???

Fatwas ordering death for blasphemy but not for murder???

Murder in the name of God is the ultimate blasphemy!!!

Excellent points!

"These Islamists hate it when you tell the truth about them."

When a Muslim speaks to an infidel truth or lies is a meaningless and the objective is to put Islam in a positive light. It is not a sin to lie to a non-Muslim. We westerners value the truth in all circumstances.

Since they play by different rules we need to be very careful because they are dedicated to our destruction not telling the truth.

I am so confused.

Don't try this at home.

George Bush? Plain American.

Care to expound on this?

...and i thought we were finally gonna be rid of falwell...damned iranians...

Now what's your beef with Reverend Falwell?

"It was Zionists that invaded Kuwait wearing Iraqi uniforms."

I think I've heard that Saddam Hussein was not always a "born again" Muslim but learned to use the religon to his aims. Saddam is basically a Socialist and we all know how evil they are we fought them for 50 years.

I fear a Commie more than a radical Muslim and Saddam is a MINO. (Mino = a Muslim in name only.)

When you tell American leftists about that, they refuse to believe you. They can't be bothered with spending the time to learn about our adversaries, they just "feel" that no one could think that way.

Boy, the Shiite is really gonna hit the fan now!!!

Your boss may be fat and ugly, but that doesn't mean that it's a good idea to announce it. We'll be much more effective at destroying international terrorist organizations if we try not to turn this in to a holly war. That's what Osama wanted.
