More Peace and Tolerance on the Day of Rage from those who would never, ever insult or disparage a religious figure. Note the "Zionist" pendant. From AP:
A Palestinian protester holds an unflattering picture showing Pope Benedict XVI during a demonstration against his recent speech about Islam, following prayers in front of the Dome of the Rock mosque in the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound in Jerusalem's Old City, Friday, Sept. 22, 2006. Thousands of Muslim worshippers staged anti-pope marches in Jerusalem, the West Bank and Gaza on Friday, waving green Hamas banners and denouncing the pontiff as a coward. The Arabic writing on the poster reads, 'There are many lies that go out of their mouths. ' (AP Photo/Muhammed Muheisen)

How childish.
Jerusalem and Gaza are hotbeds of terrorism and its unfortunate that the pope is being violently criticized.
I strongly recommend the pope not to go to Turkey, and I also recommend that Pope should make strong remarks against terrorism even if it means criticizing islam.
The pope made a brave gesture and now is the time to call a spade a spade and wage war against
Arab-Iran-Punjabi axis of evil.
So did that picture come in a pack with a stick of bubble gum?
the demented adherents of a demented creed defend their demented creed...
Nu?
religion of peace....ha
"Can you feel the love?"
No, but I can feel their pain.
Is this supposed to be a cross between Moshe Dayan and Heidi? I don't even get their 'put downs.' What's the signfiicance of the eye patch? Islam; the religion of idiots.
All this could not be better. In my dreams I would never have thought the Pope would replace Jews as the principal target of Moslems.
All those people who felt they could sit on the sidelines because it was Moslem-Jewish conflict are getting a wake-up call.
Eventually (I hope) the rest of us, Hindus, Buddhists, Jews, Christians, gays, atheists (some of these overlap of course) might unite against our common enemy, Moslems, and destroy them.
Whether that happens depends on the course of events, but it looks a lot more likely if we stay on the present course.
GREAT - EXCELLENT !
*Excuse my excitement*
Pope Benedict should be labelled as the best statitician of the 21st century.
He has made a remark embedded and not of his own words but sufficient enough to illicit a response that removes the cloak of lies about Islam being a peaceful religeon. What a Genius
In the UK i am watching the gradual lifting of Dhimmitude from the MSM. It's getting more refreshing every day. Comments that would have been moderated out of the BBC, Guardian etc have been left in. Commentators from within the MSM are getting more bold in thier critical analysis. Articles that point to the problem being Islam, Mo etc are actually being published. (ok within these are some lines of PC dogma, but the central message is getting louder). I listen to BBC 3 Counties Radio and over the last 6 months the presenters have been getting bolder and bolder over the airwaves. It's been like listening to Jihad Watch bloggers ON THE RADIO. Amazing!
I called in myself and explained Dhimmi, Jihad, jizya, Tiqya etc and the presenter just let me go on and on and on... Then he starts asking me for advice on how to tackle the threat we all face.. (WOW).. live on BBC Radio.
GUYS - dont feel down - get the message out - inform your countrymen.
Churchill 1939:
That's good news. According to this it was intentional:
http://thepugilstick.blogspot.com/2006/09/papal-strategies.html
Just one comment. That is all it took.
Well thought, well delivered, and couched in non-violence. Brilliant.
Apologies or not, this is a speech/lecture with lasting teeth.
How many speeches in the world are made, and how many are ever remembered?
Just one lecture. This Pope has demonstrated the true power of his post. All the years of his supporting John Paul II and knowing his history has paid off.
Thanks Benedict XVI!!
Keep it up!

MUSLIMS ARE NOW ON THE DEFENSIVE AS THE TRUTH ABOUT ISLAM IS INCREASINGLY BEING EXPOSED
Muslims attack BBC for airing interview with extremist
By Devika Bhat
Read the transcript of Abu Izzadeen's remarks today
Join the debate
The chief Muslim organisation in Britain has condemned the BBC for giving a well-known Islamic extremist who hijacked a speech by the Home Secretary a prime-time platform to air his views today.
The decision to interview Abu Izzadeen today during the key 8.10am slot on the agenda-setting Today programme was heavily criticised by the Muslim Council of Britain (MCB), which described Abu Izzadeen as a "thug" and accused the BBC of deliberately trying to generate publicity.
"We have received phone call after phone call from moderate Muslims who are appalled that the Today programme gave such an utterly marginal figure this prime-time spot to spout his bile almost interrupted," said Inayat Bunglawala, spokesman for the MCB.
"There was no attempt to balance the interview or challenge his views by having a mainstream Muslim view featured. This really plays into the hands of those who think of Muslims as bigots. People are very upset about this misrepresentation of Islam."
Abu Izzadeen, also known as Omar Brookes, renewed his attack on the Government, accusing Tony Blair of being a "Crusader" against Islam, and warned of Muslim retaliation in the UK if the Government continued with its measures against terrorism, during the interview this morning on Radio Four. He also rejected democracy and called for the UK to come under Sharia law during the heated exchange.
If by now, Palestinian and Arab Christians do not realize that Islam is no friend of theirs, then there is truly no hope for them.

Muslim leader: I want to hang the Pope
Inflammatory: Hafiz Hussain Ahmed said he would 'hang the Pope' if he got his hands on him
A senior Muslim leader said he would hang the Pope if he got hold of him as hundreds of radicals gathered in rallies across Pakistan to protest at the pontiff's recent remarks.
"If I get hold of the pope, I will hang him," Hafiz Hussain Ahmed, a senior MMA leader, told protesters in Islamabad, who carried placards reading "Terrorist, extremist Pope be hanged!" and "Down with Muslims' enemies!"

THANK YOU POPE BENEDICT
YOU SHOULD TEACH TACTICS TO THE CIA FBI MI5 MOSSAD ETC ...
I think it is time for Catholics to take to the streets, burn Mosques, defile the Qur'an and blaspheme muhammad and threaten all mullahs and Imams everywhere.. turn about is fair play, and turn about is the only way to bring this childish behavior to a head..
But thanks to muslims everywhere for proving that the critics of Islam (past and present) are correct, that Islam and Muslims are irrational, infantile and an ecological threat to human society.

Cardinal questions Turkey's admission to EU
Cardinal O'Connor has questioned Turkey's EU credentials
The head of the Roman Catholic Church in England and Wales today questioned whether Turkey should be admitted to the European Union.
The Archbishop of Westminster, Cardinal Cormac Murphy O'Connor, echoed Pope Benedict XVI in saying that the predominantly Muslim state was not culturally part of Europe.
The Cardinal sought to play down the controversy over the Pope's recent speech in which he quoted the words of a Byzantine emperor who described Islam as "evil and inhuman".
However he accepted that there were passages in the Koran which could be read as an "incentive to violence".
Cardinal Murphy O'Connor questioned the position of Tony Blair who has consistently argued for Turkish membership of the EU on the grounds that exclusion would be damaging.
AND THE COMMENT RECIEVED SO FAR IS -
Its not often that I agree with organised religion but this man has hit the nail on its head and politicians had better listen.
- Brian, UK
They continuously protest with violence at the suggestion that Islam produces violence.
Jesus Christ IS the Son of God....allah is a moon god. You can't pick an idol and make it god.
There is only ONE GOD who is know as 'I AM that I Am' and HE is the God worshiped by the Jews and Christians, which Islam persecutes. If they knew God, they would love us.
Lastly, let me make clear that I do not regret the 'REACTION' (or impact) that the truth may have on any poor, innocent, persecuted islamic fundamentalist terrorist that might visit this message board.
PEOPLE IN THE UK ARE REALLY FED UP
SOME RECENT COMMENTS -
It's not shocking that the Home Secretary was heckled. It's not also surprising that the comment made by Pope resulted in such unprecedented attack on himself and Christianity in general. We live in a world where nobody is allowed to say a single word against islam. But these extremists are allowed to threaten, heckle and even support anything that will destroy the very society they claim to belong. The Press seem to be supporting these extremism by airing their views in a supportive manner.
Benjamin Nzuruba, London, United Kingdom
Radical Islam is a very real problem. It aims to subvert the democratic values that we fought two world wars to maintain. British people are beginning to become impatient with all the apologising and self-examination. Be proud to be British and be proud to be a liberal democracy. It took 2000 years of improvement to get here. Be proud.
A N, London, United Kingdom
Someone earlier said its insulting to muslim parents saying they are bad parents. From what i remember, wasnt one of the 7/7 parents still denying his son was involved in murdering people? We should have tackled this seperatist problem years ago, but thats multiculturism for you.
So muslims care so much about their brothers in the middle east? why dont they protest against iran or saudi arabia for torturing muslims for having adultary and other minor crimes? Its so easy to blame the west.
Simon, London
As a Muslim Parent myself, there is absolutley no way i would "shop" my kids in to a government comitting state sponsered murders across the world, in the form of illegal wars! This is the same Labour Government who preach democracy across the Mid-East, yet are happy to sponser countries with dictators such Egypt, Jordan, UAE, Qatar etc..
New Labour is fast becoming a joke in Britain (if not already). The hypocracy with all they do and say is evident to all - Mulslims or not!
Peace!
Junaid, London
The behaviour of these Muslims is exactly what we need to root out. Over-reacting to general statements is proof that a problem exists within a wider Muslim community. The UK is not a Muslim country so why should our laws be changed to please a growing minority? Surely the focus of policy should be on the greatest good for the greatest number? It seems the current government is forgetting its native population in favour of an oppressive force. Why has English people's security been overlooked?
Jacqui, London
Sad to admit, but I've had it with tolerance - I used to be, I think, a very tolerant person, of all sorts of diversity. I'm not sure what angers me most, the strident and aggressive attitudes of Moslems who blame me for everything and want to kill me, or the pathetic appeasement of our government and police, or Bush and Blair for their illegal and idiotic policies (that don't justify terrorism but give it an excuse). How many of us might vote for extremist parties now?
Ordinary person, Manchester
Totally disgusted with the hecklers during Mr Reid's speach. As a 45 yr old mother of 1 child, I find it impossible at times to answer questions from him regarding terrorists and groups attached to terrorism. Why, in this day and age, can the Muslims who are not happy with the British Way, either accept our Way, or go to another country and try it out with them. Like them, we are a proud nation, we will tolerate much longer the imposition of their religion.
N A Nicol, Stirling, Scotland
Yet again, everyone is missing the point. Islam is not just a religion. It is also a legal and political coda, which Muslims believe is superior to enything else. Until this issue is addressed then Islam will continue to be extremist.
Nigel MacDonald, Camborne
PEOPLE ARE MORE EDUCATED THAN WE GIVE THEM CREDIT FOR.
The barbarians are at the gate and we squabble amongst ourselves like ignorant children and continue to coddle the Islamic enemy.
We will deserve whatever Fate we end up owning at this point. I'm completely disgusted on multiple levels and with people on both sides of the fence.
Enough!
I did things like that when I was 10 years old. I don't do things like that when I'm an adult.
This just shows that the Pope is smarter than all the muslims in the world put together. By making himself a target, His Holyness has done more damage to their cause than CAIR and devils like al-talweed can ever repair. This shows the mad dogs of islam for what they really are, nothing but a bunch of rabid, howling, insane inbred curs.
birabbi,
I looked at the picture a bit and after thinking about it, I came to realize what the Muslim protestor meant.
Muslims believe that at the End Times, there will arise a character known as ad-Dajjal. Dajjal means liar, and according to Muslim beliefs, ad-Dajjal is the Antichrist. Muhammad said that he is blind in one eye, hence the eye-patch. Also, he is the leader of the Jews, hence the star of David. So, what the Muslim protestors are saying in the defacement is that they identify the Pope as ad-Dajjal. According to Muslim beliefs, ad-Dajjal will be killed by Isa (Muslim version of Jesus). when he descends from heaven.
Note that ad-Dajjal is not the Antichrist described in the Bible, but in essence parallels the "Two Witnesses" in Revelations of the Bible. See this site for more comparisons:
Al-Mahdi & Antichrist
An islamic Day without Rage is like a day without sunshine.
In all the accounts I have read, no one actually quoted the Pope's comments. They were probably pretty mild.
One hopes that faculty members and admnistrators at Georgetown are aware of the statements of Al-Qaradawi about the Pope, and aware as well of the statements about Al-Qaradawi by John Esposito, director of the Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding at Georgetown. And one hopes that those members of the faculty and administration, possibly including James V. Schall, S.J., will demand that the ties between Esposito's fiefdom, which makes so much money for him (not to mention those lecture fees, especially to Muslim audiences, and those prizes, and all the rest intended to keep him well afloat), and Georgetown be severed. Let him keep at his louche activities, his campaigns of desinformatsiya on behalf of Islam, but not further aided in the attempt by being permitted to exploit, and at the same time to sully, the name of Georgetown.
B16's apology was a stupid move. Telling the truth is nothing to apologize for. Ever. Apologizing for having done so violates Christ's teachings.
Moreover, knee buckling like he did just emboldens the Moslems, and they get a full dose of that already five times a day and all night every Friday.
Pope Benedict should read from the Koran, the Hadiths, Ishaq, Tabari, and other sacralized texts and let come what may.
Now that would be true leadership.
Swinophobia, the fear of pigs, is a mental disorder that most terrorists have. A healthy blast of BaconBlaster will send them into a panic. The fear of being defiled for life will send them running.
I am such an idiot!
I've wasted the last 5 years pitching the Pentagon on bulk shipments of pig blood and cartilage sonstituted as an applicable thin film coating of ammo and ordnance, and these Bacon Blaster dudes are gonna be the first to make the money on my concept.
Meanwhile, I sit here staring at a stack of credit card bills for flights to Reagan International. Worse, I had to go through a cadre of scowling Moslem TSA agents both ways every trip.
I'm ramping up production. Screw the pork futures market at the Chicago Merc.
Fedup, Naseem does more harm to the muslim cause than good, I think we all realize that. I also believe that by her multiple "identities", with variant spellings, different times of posts, etc., that "she" is probably a group of 3 or 4 highschool or college age muslims sharing the same screen persona and password who are just out to cause mischief. IN any case "she" is not important. I'm not surprised the posters copied and posted the same BS they've posted here. NO originality, and very little brain on their part. Anyway it wouldn't be hard for "someone" to trace their electronic signatures back to the point of origin if they really wanted to. I would tell them to go to hell, but if they really are from Pakilund, they already are there. When the mountains fall on them it won't matter.
If we do not bomb punjabi-arab axis of evil, we will all be under constant threat from these power grabbing evl forces.
Neither Rome nor Vatican nor US or europe will be safe. Israel is under sustained attack by Arab-Punjabi axis of evil.
We must act sooner than later and utilize the support of oppressed forces in Pakistan and Middle-east and bring peace to the world.
Good grief, these people have simply "lost it". I almost had my jaw hit the floor when I had seen that. That should get any Christian offended.
FedUp,
Yes, I have seen Naseem's comments over at Daniel Pipes. The good news is that there are good non-Muslim debaters to debate her.
Don't any of these people have jobs?
Everyday is a day of rage in allah land. The Pope needs to continue cranking out those lectures on a weekly basis to keep the mohammedans keyed up and let the world behold the true face of Islam. Doesn't look like a tiny minority of extremists to me. The whole islamosphere is demonstrating its ignorance and fanaticism in a grand way. Gotta love it! Long live the Pope! †
AHHHHH!.....I am so pissed right now I can't stand it. Do these monkeys know who they are messing with? They don't! Allah can bomb a big city and the ignorant citizens will protect Moslem shops. (That human shield thing after 9/11) Do this crap in my town, and it will be different. You barbaric moon god worshippers, most of the USA is armed and informed. I think we all know it's coming. But you know what,...The majority of the landscape is us gun toting Americans that will take you out; WITH OR WITHOUT GOVERENMENT APPROVAL.
Islam and the followers made a movement but did not do their homework. You made the move too fast (OBL). Big mistake! You drones of Satan woke up a lot of us that are willing to do what ever it takes to stop the Islamic movement. Some honest Moslems (Just for the point of conservation) will tell you that they are moving to the west to breed for a few generations to and take us over eventually. If you bastards would have waited 50 years or so....It might have happened. But the leaders of jihad proved the steriotype true. you are all mentally deficent.
Bring it on!!

"I would never have thought the Pope would replace Jews as the principal target of Moslems."
The KKK also hates Catholics and Jews -- more than they hate blacks, by the way.
"Muslim protestors are saying in the defacement is that they identify the Pope as ad-Dajjal."
Many Protestant groups (and their heterodox splinter sects) have said for centuries that the Pope is the Antichrist.
As I have said before, Benedict XVI is both a brilliant and compasionate man, bound to both mankind and Christ, and a shrewd strategist. I also wonder to what extent his recent talk with Fallaci convinced him of the urgency to awaken the civilized world. How could one converse with her and not be moved by her love of people and her hatred of the vile hell on earth that awaits us if we do not act?
…”waving green Hamas banners and denouncing the pontiff as a coward.”

No, Nowhere in my mind is anyone not afraid of the truth a coward!

THe last of my guests are gone, the yard is covered with beer cans, we grilled pork chops built a fire, and had a very nice counter rage day, thanks muslims.
The mayhem which followed the Danish cartoons was laughable but this mocking of the Pope is getting on my last nerve. I truly hope they do not harm him.
Ramadam is approaching; I think September 23 or 24. My sons and I are going to celebrate by having lunch at Hooters on the 24th.
LOL, fox reported a sting caught imams selling fatwas. Mine are free BTW
If anything is done or attempted towards the Pope, I doubt the Mo's can, but if it happens will this wake anyone else up in this wacky world of "I'm afraid to offend the enemy"?
The mutilated picture speaks for itself.
Muslims are a bunch of fanatic village idiots who wish to drag all mankind to their level of childish imbecility.
the Pope tried to intorduce some civilized dialogue.
Muslims are incapable of anything civilized. They just bark, foam from the mouth and rage like beasts. "Great religion?"
Give me a break!
I think we should have a party everytime the muslims get worked up. I might miss a few weeks of work though.
Churchill; you are really on a roll. I love England and had hoped to visit the Mother country before the black crescent overtook her. You give me hope that England is getting the noble fighting spirit back. By the way, on the talk show,could you not plug J/DW?
remote_control,
You are right, of course, that many Protestants view that the Antichrist will be the Pope, or the head of EU, will the Pope as his assistant (that is not my opinion, however). However, I was specifically talking about a Muslim's viewpoint, that the Muslim holding the mutilated picture seems to imply that the Pope is ad-Dajjal. Please not that the description of ad-Dajjal and Antichrist of the Bible are not the same, and I hold the position that ad-Dajjal is different from the (biblical) Antichrist.
>>>Eventually (I hope) the rest of us, Hindus, Buddhists, Jews, Christians, gays, atheists (some of these overlap of course) might unite against our common enemy, Moslems, and destroy them>>>>.
Absolutely,Seymour Paine!
However, I wonder if Hindus would ever realize the devilish scourge called islime, looking at the phlegmatic way a sizeable majority ingratiatingly hobnob with muslimes.
Reproducing the following from Daily Pioneer(Indian non dhimmi newspaper):
"How Islam differs with Christianity
Priyadarsi Dutta
There is more at stake in the clash of civilisations between the West and Islam than just religion. It is about the survival of a free world, based on unfettered spirit of inquiry, and triumph of reason. These concepts have emerged from Christian Europe, not Islam, and taken our consciousness forward.
In the heydays of European dominance, it appeared plausible that Muslims would give up scriptural bigotry and see the light of reason. The thought was alive during the Cold War era as well, when the world was split on politico-economic-ideological lines. The optimism, however, is all but lost.
The Middle Ages began in Europe in 529 when Eastern Roman Emperor Justinian II closed down the schools of ancient philosophy in Athens. What distinguished Christianity from Islam? It is the classical Graeco-Roman background of philosophy, science, republicanism, drama, arts, etc, that kept the hope alive. Islam, born amongst backward Arab tribes, lacked the 'genome' of Christianity.
Christianity flowed downwards from the sophisticated Greeks and Romans unto barbaric Teutonic and Slavic tribes. While they were Christianised, it marked their 'Romanisation' as well. Greek and Latin, the pagan languages, became divine languages in Christian scheme of things. In times the Germans, French and British forged a more sophisticated civilisation than ancient Greeks and Romans. Of course, they did it by shaking off the assumptions of Christianity. But it is also true that had it not been Christianity, these civilisations would not have progressed. Christianity did not discourage nationalism.
Islam, in contrast, charged upwards. The Arabs enslaved more sophisticated Mesopotamians, Persians, Phoenicians, Assyrians, Hindus, etc. Thus Islam had performed no reforming role. As Islam lost its military and economic strength, it also squandered its intellectual vitality. Thus lands of Islam were worse off in 18th century than in 11th century.
The triumph of rationality was an event waiting to happen to Christendom. Greek philosophy had actually taken refuge inside Christianity - under the name of Scholasticism - and began to reassert, as the hold of the Church slackened. In Christendom, law was always Roman and never 'revealed', as in Islam. This preserved the secular side of community life".

Will someone please find a cure for this worst of all mental diseases known as Islam? The kooks call everyone liars even though their supposed holy book tells them to lie (among other fine things).
It sure is convenient for the Islamaniacs that their prophet has never been pictured, although it wouldn't be a shock to many if Mo turned out to have cloven hooves, horns and a tail.

"I think we should have a party everytime the muslims get worked up. I might miss a few weeks of work though."
LOL, but then we'll be like the french, all that time off, horrors!
It's almost comical how the adherents to Islam protest its teachings described as "evil," "violent," & "inhuman" by taking to the streets in rabid behavior that is evil, violent, & inhuman! They just look for any excuse to start rioting in the streets & shooting people, all the while proclaiming how "oppressed" they are. They also rewrite history, claiming that Israel is the "occupier" when in reality it is the Palestinians who are the occupiers of the land that our Lord gave to Israel! They even claim that Jesus Christ was the "Messenger of Islam" & that His remarks pertaining to the Holy Spirit coming to the disciples were actually about Muhammad! This is the most twisted mindset that I've ever seen in such a large group of people.
I am not Catholic, but I salute the Pope for courageously refusing to give in to their evil temper tantrums and apologize. I am so sick of watching how everyone else kowtows to the Muslims with sickening sycophancy, eager to placate them in the hopes that the Muslims will decide to like them. It seems as if everyone -- from President Bush on down -- feels compelled to qualify any anti-terror speech with a comment such as, "Islam is a noble religion," "Islam is a religion of peace," or "Muslims are peace-loving people". I have yet to see any evidence of that. If this is true, then where are all these "peace-loving" Muslims?? Why aren't they speaking out publicly & heatedly denying {at the very least} the blasphemy being done to their "noble" religion by the terrorists? The silence stands out as a deafening roar!
I have wanted to scream every time I hear someone falsely praise Islam as being 'noble' or 'peaceful'. The Pope is the only one thus far who has taken a stand & refused to kiss the gluteus maximus of Islam even in the midst of yet another violent coniption fit. Way to go, Pope Benedict XVI!

MAKE A DIFFERENCE MINISTRIES
For Pig Farmer;
Try this on for size.
Provide all combat units with an interrogation kit consisting of a pig-skin, a can of spam, and a bottle of cheap wine.
Any captured terrorists get their head shaved, stripped off, and wrapped in a nice warm pig-skin to prevent hypothermia. Then a snack of Spam containing pork which could be garnished with some dog meat. Then wash it all down with a cheap burgundy, as white wine doesn't go with pork. If they still won't talk, mark his forehead with a semi-permanent marker with a "D" for defiled. Then cut him loose.
Who knows what the reaction would be? Probably make the outcry against the Pope seem insignificant.
It also seems to me a prudent combat soldier would save any left-over bacon drippings to lubricate his bullets.
I have had absolutely no respect for the Islamic religion ever since 9/11. What's interesting is: my husband spent months in Saudi Arabia during Operation Desert Storm, and he came back with a respect for Islam for many reasons, esp. the low crime rate there.
There is no way he has even one iota of regard for that religion now, and it is their OWN doing.
Well, I'm off to buy my new tee shirt...shows a pic of a Muslim woman in full burqa, and underneath it says, "Does this bomb make me look fat?"
