LAGOS, Nigeria

It's a freaking BEAUTY CONTEST, for crying out loud. People just seem to be making up reasons to kill each other now.

========= Kaduna, Nigeria =========

In Kaduna, Nigeria, Islamic terrorists use ANY OPPORTUNITY TO KILL.
Here they used the pretense of journalism and the Miss World Contest.
For three days, Islamic murderers torched houses and churches and murdered
more than 100 souls and almost a thousand hurt
before the Christians began defending themselves.
Immediately the Western Press (again) ignored the Islamic terrorists (as usual)
and blamed the Miss World Contest, journalists and the murdered Christians, as is their way.

“It is wrong that it should happen in Britain, in Nigeria or in any country,” Sajjad Khan, of the Islamic Liberation Party in Britain, told British Broadcasting Corp. radio on Saturday.

"I think the whole idea of having a beauty contest anywhere would be against many forward-thinking people of whatever faith and whatever ideology.”

Who would have thunk a beauty pageant could become the event that sparked a world war.

The prophet Mohammand would be so proud.

Just an excuse for miscreants and ballless muslims to consider women a priviledge of their own. A woman has a right to elicit competitive courtship to see which man is most capable of abandoning priviledges for peace and prosperity. And as for muslim war like doctrine, it is just an excuse to start wars to appear as a peace maker sacrificing itself. It is the way of the pagans.

It does stir an interesting thought -- how could Muslim women compete in a beauty pageant? They can't show their faces or figures. Unless the veils come off, they all look exactly alike -- like walking pup tents. The judges would have to flip a coin.

Abuja is wonderful, but not for Miss World....Free Biafra!

You can see why followers of Islam (religion of peace, remember) were upset at newspaper saying the Prophet would have taken one of the contestants as a wife - - these women are 18 to 28 years old. Any follower of Islam knows the prophet would only have gone after a 6 year old girl, and waiting three years out of rspect, then force her to have sex at 9 years of age. The newspaper did not properly recognize the Prophet as a sexual pervert and predator ----

What about the Red Brigades, FARC, or ELF? What about the millions of peaceful, generous Hindus, Christians, Muslims, Jews, and other religious in the world?

Religion isn't the problem. It's people who feel they can ignore the rights of others to achieve their goals.

P.S. If I recall correctly, the modern IRA is as much, if not even more, Marxist and nationalist than it is religious.
