Out-Sourced Qurans Filled with Errors, Iranian Government Says
A Semi-News/Semi-Satire from AzConservative ^ | 2 Sep 2011 | John Semmens

Posted on 09/04/2011 4:09:09 PM PDT by John Semmens

A recent effort to make Qurans more affordable in Iran is proving a source of embarrassment for the regime. In a bid to cut costs, the government let a contract to print Qurans to a firm located in China. It seems that the finished product is loaded with spelling and grammatical errors.

Ahmad Haji-Sharif, director of the department of evaluation on publication of the Holy Quran, expressed outrage with the results. “Take the Quran’s command calling for Muslims to slay Jews,” Haji-Sharif offered as an example. “These Chinese dolts had the Holy book calling for Muslims to ‘sway’ the Jews. It’s blasphemy.”

Kung Pao, spokesman for China’s Anhui Publishing Group, attributed the problem to “a simple misunderstanding. It was our impression that the Quran was a book based on the sayings of a religious leader, you know, like Buddha or Jesus. Well, aren’t religious leaders trying to guide people toward the right path? Wouldn’t swaying the Jews from their erroneous thinking be a more likely thing to say?”

“Wouldn’t swaying the Jews from their erroneous thinking be a more likely thing to say?” There will be no swaying here, this muslim blood cult, only wants to kill,kill,kill both Jews and Christians!

Hopefully this will open the eyes of the Chinese to the extreme nastiness of the “religion of peace”.

Israel is making overtures to relations with China, sounds good to me.
