Look out, buddy. We'll be rolling into Baghdad soon enough. Then let's see who gets the last word, huh?...

Not meant literally regarding the 'dancing in the streets' tag, btw...

I knew they'd be "dancing in the streets" because of the death of the Israeli astronaut, but then again, how many Mohammedan astronauts are there? The Israelis have also gained a martyr.

I just found this one:

http://www.ummahnews.com/viewarticle.php?sid=1314

Titled:

"Infinite Justice: Shuttle carrying ex-Israeli air force pilot disintegrates"

According to Arabs only their allah can give infinite justice. The rest of the article is like a normal report, only the title has been adapted.

I knew they'd be "dancing in the streets" because of the death of the Israeli astronaut, but then again, how many Mohammedan astronauts are there? The Israelis have also gained a martyr.

The one Arab who's been up was a Saudi prince who happened to be an Royal Saudi Air Force pilot, iirc. He didn't go up on a lark; iirc, he was actually a competent Mission Specialist.

He lived. The Israeli died. Lt. Col. Ilan Ramon was Israel's first astronaut. As such, he is a martyr to his nation.

Colonel Ramon died tragically, with great violence. One would hope he died quickly, and with no pain. As President Bush remarked, one would also pray that he, along with his six comrades, are finally home. As General Thomas J. "Stonewall" Jackson remarked at the close of his life: "Let us cross the river and rest under the shade of the trees..."

Be Seeing You,

"Celebrating while wearing a Chicago Bears jersey."

The only reason they weren't dancing in Palestine over the space shuttle disaster is #1, because they didn't directly cause it and #2, they would be filmed again doing so.

They tried their damndest on 9/11 to destroy all the filming of them celebrating, but some got by them anyway.

They are sneaky little rats - even to the point of calculating negative PR on CNN.

[sneakers]

Why am I not surprised. Predictable. Yep, we're going to have to pay them a visit in Baghdad and thank them personally for their sentiments.

[VRW Conspirator]

...but some in the Arab world saw the tragedy as divine justice against the United States and Israel.

Yeah, the same 18 people who celebrated after the 9/11 attack. That is 19 people if you include Louis Farrakan.

"God wants to show that his might is greater than the Americans."

Uh... Where do you suppose American might comes from, Abdul?

[joyful1]

It' one of two things. Both are disastrous.

Either its hi-tech terrorism. (You'd be nuts to rule that out)

Or God is removing His hand of protection from America. Why should God shed His grace on America with behavior so apallingly perverted. (Legal baby killing, homosexual unions sanctioned, rampant drug and alcohol abuse, popular entertainment media, ect ect ect)

Either one, we are in for destruction on a scale never before known in mankind!

[Savage Beast]

"We are happy that it broke up."

"God is avenging us."

Do you suppose you could be serving the wrong "god", Abdul?

Here's a hint: You're depending on a "god" of death, destruction, and revenge. See anything kinda funny there???

[MeekOneGOP]

Thanks for the link. You're right, except for the altered title, it's a good article...

[AppyPappy]

Or it was an accident.

[AppyPappy]

Legal baby killing, homosexual unions sanctioned, rampant drug and alcohol abuse, popular entertainment media, ect ect ect

Those things are all outlawed in Muslim countries. Maybe God is a Muslim.

"We are happy that it broke up," government employee Abdul Jabbar Quraishi told Reuters news service. "God wants to show that his might is greater than the Americans. They have encroached on our country. God is avenging us."

Abdul, the might of the U.S. and its military will be soon giving you and your fellow heathens a first rate chance to meet face to face with your pagan god Allah in hell. Then and there you will understand why you and your heathenistic brethren chose to follow a false prophet and die for nothing.

They are sneaky little rats - even to the point of calculating negative PR on CNN.

So if they celebrate they are showing their true colors, if they don't they are being calculating and sneaky. Guilty no matter what, huh?

Or God is removing His hand of protection from America. Why should God shed His grace on America with behavior so apallingly perverted. (Legal baby killing, homosexual unions sanctioned, rampant drug and alcohol abuse, popular entertainment media, ect ect ect) ...you're kidding right? Or maybe you're saying that's also the reason for 9-11. Not human error, not freewill, just the unseen hand of a puppertmaster god. Please.
