“What we did was to fight the soldiers of Zion and the cross. If there are victims among Muslims it was just an error. Muslims’ blood is not halal and their killing was not intentional.”

These Islamophobes: how dare Imam Samudra, Mukhlas and Amrozi link Islam with terrorism! I trust they will be getting a strongly worded letter from Ibrahim Hooper. Or at least that CAIR will issue a strong denunciation of these statements.

Won't they?

"No regrets for the smiling murderers," from the Times (thanks to Morgaan Sinclair):

The three Indonesians sentenced to die for the 2002 Bali blasts say that they are ready to be executed and their only regret is that Muslims were among the 202 killed in the attack.

Imam Samudra and the brothers Mukhlas and Amrozi are held at the top-security Batu prison, off the southern coast of Java. They were allowed to meet relatives yesterday in what is likely to be the last such visit before they face a firing squad, probably within the next two months.

Amrozi became known as the smiling bomber because of his constant grin during his trial. “People ask me, why am I smiling? I am happy because I will be united with 72 angels in heaven,” he said in an interview with Reuters and a local television network. “I have killed many with my bombs. I have been tested by spending time in this prison, but if you make infidels angry you will be rewarded.”

The Bali bombings, blamed on the South East Asian Islamic militant group Jemaah Islamiah, were intended to scare away foreigners so that Indonesia, the world’s most populous Muslim nation, could eventually become part of a larger Islamic caliphate. Instead, the attacks in Bali and Jakarta pushed Indonesia into a closer security and intelligence relationship with the US and Australia.

The bombers said that Indonesia’s ties to Washington and Canberra did not mean that they had failed. “What we did was to fight the soldiers of Zion and the cross,” said Samudra, who is considered to have been the chief planner of the Bali attack. Mukhlas added: “If there are victims among Muslims it was just an error. Muslims’ blood is not halal [allowed to be killed] and their killing was not intentional.”

Mukhlas added: “If there are victims among Muslims it was just an error. Muslims’ blood is not halal [allowed to be killed] and their killing was not intentional.”

Yes, you better start making excuses now while you still can. Allah may not go for your lame excuses. You knew there were muslims in there prior to bombing it. No 72 for you...Allah will throw you into the fire with us infidels...Laugh about that...

For the apologists, who say that the Koran forbids murder: it only forbids the murder of Muslims. Murder of non-Muslims is required by their holy books.

I bet these guys will probably be pardoned within the next few months. Afterall they have been model prisoners.

You will be rewarded with oblivion, and the contempt of all good people who know of your miserable existence

“People ask me, why am I smiling? I am happy because I will be united with 72 angels in heaven,”

Angels? What fun would he have with angels? This was either a blatant lie or a mistranslation. He can't wait to get to the "Great Whorehouse in the Sky". 72 angels my arse.

BTW, when these idiots get to their "great reward", imagine their surprise to find out just who they have worshipped....

“People ask me, why am I smiling? I am happy because I will be united with 72 angels in heaven,”

Horny ole fool. Sex sells, and allah sure knows how to bait the hook and reel 'em into hell. Won't he be surprised when he discovers that he was snookered by satan and faces Gods justice instead. Your virgin days are over, pal, so wipe that grin off of your face and get right with God.

“What we did was to fight the soldiers of Zion and the cross,” said Samudra

Notice that the enemy is not some vague military tactic like 'terrorism' or 'terrorists'. It is quite specific, Jews and Christians are at the top of the list. Other faiths are not worth mentioning in comparison. This is right out of the pit (spiritually). Notice also that the enemy is referred to as 'soldiers'. This justifies (in their minds) any and all actions and motives. I never served in the military (4F) but it looks like I have been drafted along with my fellow Jews. Think about it.

This is what floors me when low lifes like this can be quoted and no one says anything, but in polite conversation I can say the Islam is the enemy and all hell breaks loose. Why is he not characterized as a racist when I am. OH, the hypocrisy and fear.

Deu 30:7
And the LORD thy God will put all these curses upon thine enemies, and on them that hate thee, which persecuted thee.

المانيا 30:7
والرب خاصتك الله سوف يضع كل هذه اللعنات على ذين الاعداء ، وعليهم ان أكره إليك ، والتي اضطهاد اليك

"“If there are victims among Muslims it was just an error."


....ok, I will agree Muslims should stay far away from the infidels....

...in fact, the infidels should ban Muslim Immigration....

"ban Muslim Immigration...."

I am ALL over that idea!

Really? I let my tongue run wild when it comes to Islam. I don't give a half-shit what anyone thinks. Just get me started on Islam and in a nano second I'm a pontificating pedagogue.

Did it Friday night at a Halloween party and guess what? The Grim Reaper, The Church Lady, The Biker Broad, Dave the Pirate and many others crowding around were JUST AS ISLAMOPHOBIC as I.

Just a shame I didn't get my burqa in time for the party.

Ynkedoodl2,

Good for you. He we keep our mouths shut about the truth about Islam, how will people learn? The MSM?

Posted by: Elric66 [TypeKey Profile Page] at October 30, 2007 1:37 PM

Spoken like true Islamic killer-Zombies! And wouldn't you just know Halloween is right around the corner!

ps-Muslims are ALWAYS killing other Muslims. The kuran even teaches Muslim mosque commuinities to prey on other mosque commuinities. Anything less would be truly un-Islamic!

This is such an ambiguous statement. It's open to all kinds of different interpretations.

Posted by: Hugh [TypeKey Profile Page] at October 30, 2007 3:08 PM

Islam requires the murder (or forced conversion, or submission) of non-Muslims, and allows the accidental murder of Muslims, or the intentional murder of Muslims who are not quite Muslim enough. But it still qualifies as the Religion of Peace according to some top politicians (who apparently are Qur'anic scholars in their spare time).

Here's to hoping that those 72 virgins turn out to be incredibly shapely-but literally pig headed.
These bastards deserve nothing less for all eternity.

What if it's only 72 raisins? Talk about disappointment.....

Posted by: tanstaafl [TypeKey Profile Page] at October 30, 2007 8:52 PM

Let's just hope that each of these guys get their 72 year old virgin in allah heaven(and then it might be the same one getting some clever surgery between bouts).

When one thinks of how worthwhile their lives have been to this point, it would at least merit sending out for a fully dressed pizza for them before their execution.

And then couldn't they get some company - like sending their imams to execution with them and letting these august teachers also share the virgin.

She likes her work, one is told. and always looks forward to the appearance of these eager bucks in allah heaven.

Keep up the good work fellas.

“What we did was to fight the soldiers of Zion and the cross"
..............................

This is telling. I'm sure many in the holiday crowd in Bali at the nightclub bombing hardly identified as Jews or Christians, and I'm sure that none of them saw themselves as "soldiers of Zion and the cross".

That is how Jihadists see Westerners, though, as representatives of the Judeo-Christian tradition, whether they like it or not.

My their 72 virgins be infested with black widow spiders, lice, and crabs.
