An Israeli friend recently informed me that the UK fought the Islamic terrorist attacks by burying the criminals with a pig. Apparently, the Islamic belief is that if ones' body is buried with a pig (because they are considered unclean), their soul will go to hell.
I did a little research into this subject and found it to be true. It got me thinking.....
If we put a baby pig on every airline flight then all suicide terrorists would abort their missions as they would not want their souls to go to hell. Additionally, if we drop-shipped, say about 100,000 pigs into Afghanistan, I think our recon and assault efforts may be more successful. Apparently muslims dislike the very sight of pigs...A LOT!
They are also adamantly opposed to alcohol, thus we could spike their water supply with a few thousand gallons of Cosmopolitans, get them falling-down drunk and then turn the pigs loose. The war would be over in a weekend.
But, just a thought, I think it would be a terrible injustice to the pigs....

and Freedom of Speech is STILL Freedom of Speech. Unless of course we are under SHARIA Law, which says (and I am paraphrasing here) that anyone who says anything negative about Islam can be put to death. Which reminds me, here is a quote from Dalil Boubakeur (thats the guy who brought a lawsuit against a French writer who called Islam "the stupidest religion"), "Freedom of expression stops at the point at which it does damage and teh Muslim Community feels insulted."

??? Racism??/? ROTFL, Sheesh. Need to get a grip ther Anmar, racism is the belief that one race is gentically superior to another. Has nothing to do with the joke contents.

QuoteAlso, I have seen a persons beliefs attacked on a somewhat personal level. I would think that if we are to promote a certain level of diversity these attacks are counterproductive and only add to the deterioration of the discussion.
excuse me while i go yell "fire" in a crowded theater, which by the way none of you should do but it's ok for me to do because the theater is full of muslims. I'll leave you with a Quote, lets see if you can guess who said it.
"Whosoever believes in God and the Last Day, then let him speak good or remain silent."
Lets get back to the politics and leave this junk behind.
Yeah, and MC Hammer said "Can't touch this" ...so what??
You want politics, ok, lets talk politics. Lets talk about policical leaders using Sharia law as a basis of governing their countries. And while we are at it lets look at some of the elements of that law shall we:
1- an eye for an eye (hence the theif losing his hand thing)
2- Drinkers and gamblers must be whipped
3- Adulterers must be stoned to death
4- Men can hit their women if they want to
5- If you say something negative about Islam you can be put to death
And no, this post isn't about bashing Islam, it is about gov'ts using Islam as a basis of rule.

Apparantly its your statement, because mohammeds statement is
Whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day, let him say what is good or remain silent.
Allah is not God. And the muslims do not call Allah God. THey call him allah
Hey, guys! We have lots to argue and debate about, but it shouldn't be pigs! Muslims are not "afraid "of pigs. There are Egyptian Muslim pig farmers. I saw a TV program a year or so about them. They usually don't eat the meat.They raise them for the Christian population. They still consider them unclean in the sense they were many hundreds of years ago. Pigs raised under filthy conditions and not properly cooked could pass diseases to man, so the wise men of the time, wanting to protect their people, declared them unclean. I wouldn't want trichinosis either, but now it can be prevented. I'm sure the Ayatollah ultra conservatives still make a fuss, but the rest don't.
Holy toledo_____________
Teresa...go in and delete the stupid joke --- Man this thread has got very thin skin ---sorry I see mirth in a sect of people that I absolutely do not believe in -- but if Anmar shows his sympathy to those -- then so be it, that is his right. Just don't include me in that circle.
Jo
Jo, your joke should no more be deleted than anything else that has found its way onto the pages of this site. This is exactly what I was refering to when I said that common sense and reason were taking a beating...Your joke was funny on many levels...Not the least of which is the fact that once again it got the pot boiling again! lol

Anmar, all BS aside, the joke was about Islamic Terrorists, not muslims.
Which reminds me, whats the difference between a terrorist and a dead horse???
-----Its no fun beating a dead horse.
What does Tehran have in common with Hiroshmia?
-----Nothing....yet.
What do you do when you see 100 dead islamic terrorists?
-----Laugh and reload.
I have to say that last one is my favorite.
