This just came in to the email box:
Jihad,I'm updating my address book. Please take a moment to update your latest contact information. Your information is stored in my personal address book and will not be shared with anyone else....
That's "Mr. Watch" to you, buddy.
Reminds me of my favorite al Jazeera name:
Jihad Ballout
"Dear Jihad..."
Say, there's a pseudonym if you ever need it:
"G. Hadwatch." ;)
Robert,
I recently wrote-in for a specific email address from jihadwatch because I wanted to send you an attachment and your existing email format is not suited for such. It dawned on me only later - computer illiterate that I am - that I could use the 'jihadwatch' webmaster addy that automatically responds to every email. Sorry for the confusion.
Rebecca had expressed in an earlier thread her enjoyment of the anti-Islamic songs of a British songwriter at the recently attended 'Restoration Weekend.' I emailed one of my own for the amusement of all at jihadwatch...specifically requesting that Rebecca be alerted to it. Call it my little contribution to the cause.
Anyway, I was hoping it wasn't overlooked or ignored.
Thanks,
Cornelius
Thats funny!
Dear Robert, Its great that in all this serious business of "jihad watch' you haven't lost your sense of humor! God bless you & keep up your terrific work.
with emails like that, is sure keeps you on your toes! Robert you know you are onto the truth when you they cannot attack your words but yourself!
Same as when the NY Times rock critic used to call the rock star Meatloaf, Mr. Loaf
A nearby gas station I fill up at here in Jerusalem used to have an attendant named Jihad. It made me sick.
"Hi! My name is Jihad. Blow 'er up?"
Or the Pink Floyd lyric "and which one of you is Pink?"
Perfect example of an animal in human clothing thinking he's superior in mind and tactic.
What's so damn funny is that this idiot actually thinks anyone would believe his forked-tongue deception.
Robert:
Long time ago (i.e., when I was younger), I had a favorite trick for people who pestered me and wanted "contact" information. I gave them the telephone number of the Central Intelligence Agency. The CIA would only answer the phone "Hello" and never give a name or anything. I always figured that some pesky person would eventually piss them off, and get investigated. Alas! I never know if it worked.
Thank you for keeping us all informed about the world's biggest problem.

Sounds like an honest, computer generated mistake to me, not unlike a Reader's Digest story I read some years ago, about a church (a Church of God, I think) getting a form letter for a sweepstakes offer-- the kind that repeatedly addresses its reader by their given name, in this case, "God."
Islam: And don't make caricatures of our God - I mean - of our Prophet!
Europe: Or What?
Islam: Or we will send our Mr. Jihad to bring you peace!
Interesting that Jihad is used as both first and second name by Muslims. I have noticed a few cases (if I remember correctly the surname of the little girl wearing "I love Al-Qaida" woolly hat during the Muslim demo in London was Jihad) of people called Jihad in British media. Found it spine-chilling. Also brings hiccups in memory of another peace loving totalitarian system called Communism. In the Soviet Union under Stalin it was quite common to "christen" children with such ideologically charged names names as Industrialisation or Revolution. Brrrr...
Take care Robert and Co. and thanks for the site
