“Suicide Attack At Volleyball Game Kills 45,” Sky News, November 23, 2014 (thanks to Pamela Geller):

At least 45 people have been killed after a suicide bombing at a volleyball tournament in Afghanistan.

The blasts took place at a crowded stadium, and most of the victims were civilians. Reports suggest that dozens more have been wounded.

According to officials, the bomber detonated his explosives vest after mingling with spectators on foot.

A spokesman for the governor of Paktika province said: “There were too many people gathered in the one place to watch the game. Dozens of others are wounded and we have reports that many of them are in critical condition….

    There are no fun, no entertainment, no games and no love in Islam. Only stupid praying killing and hatred. That’s the religion of peace (TM).

    Many others — including experts like Robert Spencer — have said this one very simple fact explaining Islam’s violence :

    MUHAMMAD’S LIFE WENT FROM PEACEFUL PERSUASION TO FORCEFUL ACTION. And he was the Perfect Example for Muslims to follow.

    The Bani Qurayza’s captive males had their heads removed as an unpleasant consequence of defeat, as the “prophet” watched.

    If explosives were invented when he was living, suicide vests would have been commonplace. IT DOES NOT TAKE A GENIUS TO UNDERSTAND THE CONSEQUENT PATHOLOGICAL SLAUGHTER.

        Islamic jihad is mass psychopathy.

    “There is no humor in Islam.”
    How true!
    Defeat Islam with Islam.
    Just helping people to see what Islam is, goes a long way to defeating Islam.

    Sounds like Khomeini was a “misunderstander of Islam.” Didn’t he get the memo that Muslims are peace loving pacifists? The only reasons why Muslims commit rapes, kidnappings, honor killings, airplane hijackings and suicide bombings is self-defense, because they’re being picked on. If every non-Muslim would just pay their jizya and stop complaining when the Muslims bulldoze your church or burn your synagogue or gang-rape your daughter, we could all just get along.

    It is not easy for Allah to keep tormenting the world all by himself.
    Thanks to Muslims, Allah gets to take a day off once in a while.
    What would poor Allah do with out Muslims to help him out, day in day out?
    Disappear as if he was never there?

    Please, where can I find this quotation? Is it from Khomeini’s Green Book?
    Thank you.

      Allah did not create man so that he could have fun. The aim of creation was for mankind to be put to the test through hardship and prayer. 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. There can be no fun and joy in whatever is serious. Islam does not allow swimming in the sea and is opposed to radio and television serials. Islam, however, allows marksmanship, horseback riding and competition …

      (source: Meeting in Qom “Broadcast by radio Iran from Qom on 20 August 1979.” quoted in Taheri, The Spirit of Allah (1985) p.259)

    The governor of Paktika province failed to mention that Islam mandates warfare against the disbelievers. People who like sports are disbelievers.

      And they hope to hold the World Cup soccer in that part of the world in 2022. Are the organisers aware of these teachings of Islam? It must be and should be a big concern.

    Maybe the masses aren’t allowed to have fun, but I guarantee that the leaders are not without their single malt scotches and concubines.
