As the Ayatollah Khomeini said, "An Islamic regime must be serious in every field. There are no jokes in Islam. There is no humor in Islam. There is no fun in Islam." Sharia Alert and Future-Of-Europe Update from Reuters, with thanks to Sr. Soph:
TEHERAN — Iran’s new police chief has vowed to crack down on illicit alcohol, music CDs and parties where people of the opposite sex mingle, months after promising a policy which would respect people’s privacy.“The crackdown will be on corruption centres where mixed parties are held and gangs distribute alcohol and CDs,” ISNA student news agency yesterday quoted Ismail Ahmadi-Moqaddam as saying.
“Young Iranians are victims of moral corruption. We will strongly react against it,” he said.
Ahmadi-Moqaddam had promised when he took office in July an ethical and modern police force which would respect people’s privacy, countering fears he may roll back fragile social freedoms in the Islamic state.
He was appointed after hardline President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was elected, replacing moderate Mohammad Khatami’s eight-year presidency during which enforcement of social restrictions such as Islamic dress codes for women relaxed....
"There are no jokes in Islam."
Except I'm sure that something like this made the rounds in Muslim circles after 9/11...
There once were two towers filled with thousands of infidels in the center of the infidel world -- Some pious Muslims got the great idea to fly infidel planes into the infidel towers to wipe out as many of them as possible. This would be using the infidel's own property, the infidel's own technology, and the infidel's own foolishness to destroy as many of them as possible, Allah willing... (laughter and titters ripple around the room...) So on one fine September day several shahids took matters into their own hands and did Allah's will -- The best thing about it was the infidels could be seen leaping from the highest floors in the vain hope that they could escape Allah's wrath...
Laughter breaks out at this magnificent joke, the irony of it all. Ululation and applause is heard around the room and goats eyes were handed out and eaten voraciously. Then it was time to pray...
Allah hates fun. You never hear Allah laugh, his idea of entertainment is torturing unbelievers in the fire. If he jokes around at all, it's while he is pouring boiling water down your throat. So the whole idea of parties and gender intermingling, music, adult beverages and dancing are out. Forget that. We are going to the mosque...It's one of the few places left where you can get away from fun...Allah knows best.
A cautionary example of why Islam must be kept out of the West. It's bad enough that non-Muslims who are stuck or have chosen to remain in the sh** holes that most Muslim countries have become for them, but the idea that Muslims will move in and impose their will on non-Muslims, as they have on the unfortuante people of Nigeria, reinforces my belief that Muslims can't integrateinto Western society. There will be hell to pay if they try that here in my part of the world.
I beg to differ, "Islam is a joke"

TEll that to the Copts, to the on Muslims in Iran, Iraq and Pakistan.
This reminds me of the movie, "In the Name of the Rose", starring Sean Connery.
Mixed parties, alcohol, CDs?
Horrors! Sounds like the teenagers are at it again. Wait 'til they get to college! Frat parties. Eating goldfish. Panty raids. Electric guitars. Wet T-shirt contests. Smoking pot. Necking in public. Sausage pizza. Maybe even eating pork ribs and drinking beer. All while driving and having drag races.
Why, it's the revolution. This is a worthwhile thing that the CIA should invest in immediately.
