“Robert Spencer incarnates intellectual courage when, all over the world, governments, intellectuals, churches, universities and media crawl under a hegemonic Universal Caliphate’s New Order. His achievement in the battle for the survival of free speech and dignity of man will remain as a fundamental monument to the love of, and the self-sacrifice for, liberty.”

"Does he get any virgins if he doesn't manage to murder any infidels?"
You know I have always pondered that question. When a devout Muslim in Sweden only killed himself in an attempted terrorist attack in 2010, I sent the following inquiry to an online Islam q&a forum.
"Hello,
I've always had this question about Islam and was wondering if you could provide an answer.
If a Muslim becomes a "martyr" will he be rewarded more if the number of Infidels he kills is greater.
For example, the Muslim who recently blew himself in Sweden had all intentions to kill many Infidels but only ended up killing himself. Will allah still reward him as much as say the 9-11 Muslim terrorists or if he himself killed over 100 Infidels?
Or will he only get a partial reward, say 36 virgins who are just above average looking? Will he get to recline on lush carpets like Mohammad Atta or say just a carpet that is a tad better quality than one finds at Walmart?
Thank you in advance for your reply."
I never received a reply so I'm still pondering...
