Reuters: US ambassador to Libya dead

[PDH]

I'm sad that the muslims in Laramie haven't rioted, haven't marched, haven't burned flags.  Instead they held an inter-faith panel with a priest and a rabbi and talked about tolerance and free speech.

Wyoming muslims must be fake.  Maybe it is because their center used to be a nice wooden church that the baptists moved out of (and into a huge pre-fab steel barn on the edge of town).

Well, if you want an example of a white American who converted to Islam who isn't obviously nuts and didn't reject Western value, I guess you could go with Lewis Arquette.  I admit that I really don't know anything about him, but if he was nuts, at least he wasn't spectacularly, publicly nuts like, say, Tom Cruise.

Gotta agree, though, that Cat Stevens is probably not a good example, because he does seem to have rejected a lot of Western values.

Pretty much all of them.  Him changing his name to Yusuf Islam was kind of a strong hint.

I think it's probably because they're surrounded by white people with gun racks on their pickups. Gives one pause.

My buddy's muslim wife was barely aware any of it was going on.  But then again she eats bacon and ham-- as long as her mom's not around.

Is it possible to be surrounded by people in Wymoing?

The ad was plastered on San Francisco city buses in recent weeks, prompting some artists to deface the ads and remove some of the words, including "Jihad,"

I guess the author leaves it to the reader's intelligence to figure out that this leads the ad to read "Support Israel defeat", which is slightly more than just "removing words".

or holy war.

I guess this part was succesful as the ad does not seem to include "holy war" expression in it.

As long as "surrounded" is loose.

Considering Laramie is a place where locals crucify, stone and torture gays to death, it could also be that Muslims there feel at home and do not have significant differences with other creeds.

Edit: Also it's quite telling that Wyoming does not have legislation targetting anti-gay hate crimes to this day.

You said "gays..." I am sure that the one incident has been replayed a number of times in your mind, but I fail to see how that is a horrible incident that happened to more than one person.

Oh wait, it didn't.  You are just a troll.

Do you know how to read? It's pretty clear that the holy war bit was a translation of Jihad.

He knows but this isn't a gay issue so he's trying to cope.

Sorry, didn't realize the author was writing for retards who do not know that.

Not everyone is so well versed in Islamic culture as you.

So today 30-50 000 Libyans (in Benghazi alone) marched against extremism and for a unified government. They then stormed a jihadi camp, which they proceeded to burn down. All in retaliation for the killing of an American ambassador. I continue to find Libya extraordinarily surprising.
