I swear they will be worse than Nazi Zombies.
What part of filthy savage unsophisticated sick subhuman animals did I stutter on...
Lucky stiff?

Sorry I meant recently departed though anyone that is a follower of Islam does have an infection within them.
“Over my dead body” will have a new meaning now.
Uhh, I just grossed myself out! Islam disgusts me and every time I think they can NOT possibly be any more depraved another of these nasty reports shows up!
I guess its possible some would not be able to tell a difference...
I wonder if he would eventually come around? A really committed Liberal would view this story in two ways: an initial view, and then an "enlightened" view:
1) No way! There's no evidence! You're making this stuff up! That's just crazy talk! It isn't happening!
2) Well, you know, cultures are different, and who are we to judge, and it's really just sex, and maybe if we allowed this in our country people wouldn't be so uptight. It's for the children. It's for the wife. It's for the ... well, let's not argue theology. I wouldn't want to be judgmental -- that would be so evil and Christian.

Still no major retractions yet. Wouldn’t surprise me if it suddenly turned out to be true, certainly not in a country that has been engaging in “virginity tests” and molesting women in that manner.
Islam: Direct from the anus of Satan.
They prefer their live sheep, goats and small boys, anyway.
What’s one dead wife more or less when you have three or more left over—after all, WHO’S COUNTING?
The only ethical or moral difference between islam and NAMBLA is....
Give me a few minutes, I’ll think of something.
