A notorious Muslim extremist told a demonstration in London yesterday that the Pope should face execution.
Anjem Choudary said those who insulted Islam would be "subject to capital punishment".
His remarks came during a protest outside Westminster Cathedral on a day that worldwide anger among Muslim hardliners towards Pope Benedict XVI appeared to deepen.
The pontiff yesterday apologised for causing offence during a lecture last week. Quoting a medieval emperor, his words were taken to mean that he called the prophet Mohammed "evil and inhuman".
He insisted he was "deeply sorry" but his humbling words did not go far enough to silence all his critics or quell the violence and anger he has triggered.
A nun was shot dead in Somalia by Islamic gunmen and churches came under attack in Palestine.
Choudary's appeal for the death of Pope Benedict was the second time he has been linked with apparent incitement to murder within a year.
The 39-year-old lawyer organised
demonstrations against the publication of cartoons of Mohammed in February in Denmark. Protesters carried placards declaring "Behead Those Who Insult Islam".
Yesterday he said: "The Muslims take their religion very seriously and non-Muslims must appreciate that and that must also understand that there may be serious consequences if you insult Islam and the prophet.
"Whoever insults the message of Mohammed is going to be subject to capital punishment."
He added: "I am here have a peaceful demonstration. But there may be people in Italy or other parts of the world who would carry that out.
"I think that warning needs to be understood by all people who want to insult Islam and want to insult the prophet of Islam."
As well as placards attacking the Pope such as "Pope go to Hell", his followers outside the country's principal Roman Catholic church also waved slogans aimed at offending the sentiments of Christians such as "Jesus is the slave of Allah".
A Scotland Yard spokesman said of his comments: "We have had no complaints about this. There were around 100 people at the demonstration. It passed off peacefully and there were no arrests."
Larger Islamic groups in Britain said they accepted the Pope's apology. Inayat Bunglawala of the Muslim Council of Britain said: "The Vatican has moved quickly to deal with the hurt and we accept that.
"It was something that should never have happened - words of that nature were always likely to cause dismay - and we believe some of the Pope's advisers may have been at fault over his speech."
Yesterday's sermon by the Pope was the first time a pontiff has publicly said sorry.
He said he regretted Muslim reaction to his speech and stressed that the quotation did not reflect his personal opinion. Anger and violence - including attacks on seven churches in the West Bank and Gaza - have characterised one of the biggest international crises involving the Vatican in decades.
The Pope appeared determined to move quickly to try to defuse the anger but the fury of many radicals was unabated last night and there were fears for his safety.
Iraqi jihadists issued a video of a scimitar slicing a cross in two, intercut with images of Benedict and the burning Twin Towers.
The website run in the name of the Mujahedeen Army, used by extremist groups who have claimed responsibility for attacks in Iraq, was addressed to "You dog of Rome" and threatened to "shake your thrones and break your crosses in your home".
In a reference to suicide bombing, it said: "We swear to God to send you people who adore death as much as you adore life."
The threat of violence against Catholics and Christians was emphasised by the murder of an Italian nun in Somalia. Sister Leonella, 66, was shot as she walked from the children's hospital where she worked to her house in Mogadishu, a city recently taken over by an Islamic government.
A Vatican spokesman said he feared her death was "the fruit of violence and irrationality arising from the current situation".
Father Frederico Lombardi said he hoped it was an isolated event. "We are worried about this wave of hatred and hope it doesn't have any grave consequences for the Church around the world," he said.
The murder suggested that extremists are determined to use the Pope's embarrassment as an excuse for violence.
In Turkey, state minister Mehmet Aydin said the Pope seemed to be saying he was sorry for the outrage but not necessarily for his remarks.
"You either have to say this, 'I'm sorry' in a proper way or not say it at all," he told reporters in Istanbul.
There were fierce denunciations of the pontiff from Iran. The English-language Tehran Times called his lecture in Bavaria last week "code words for a new crusade".
The powerful cleric Ahmad Khatami told theological students in the holy city of Qom: The "Pope should fall on his knees in front of a senior Muslim cleric and try to understand Islam."
But the Turkish government signalled it was content and that the Pope's visit to the country in November can go ahead.
In his sermon yesterday at the Papal summer residence of Castel Gandolfo outside Rome, Benedict spoke amid strengthened security.
He said: "I am deeply sorry for the reactions in some countries to a few passages of my address at the University of Regensburg, which were considered offensive to the sensibility of Muslims.
"These in fact were a quotation from a medieval text, which do not in any way express my personal thought. I hope this serves to appease hearts and to clarify the true meaning of my address."
No other Pope is thought to have made such an apology.
Death and destruction to them and to Islam.
How's that?
"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." -Manuel II Paleologus
When is enough, enough, on having people like this in Western countries? If this guy isn't an English citizen, he should be on a plane tomorrow, bound for the Islamic H***hole of his origin. If he is a citizen, he should be jailed and charged with incitement to murder.
I'm fully in favor of dousing this excuse for a human in pig's blood on a daily basis for his full prison term. What a failure of humanity we see daily with Islam.
"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." -Manuel II Paleologus
Have wondered how this Pope's term might expire . . . setting things up for the predicted next Pope--supposedly to be the evil Pope complicit with the evil world government.
Could this hideous shrill call of the Jihadi's be pointing to such a horror?
Well, how dare he call them violent.
" If this guy isn't an English citizen, he should be on a plane tomorrow, bound for the Islamic H***hole of his origin. "
I'm afraid I just don't get the rationale behind "deporting" these radical agitators -- when I find a roach in my kitchen, I don't catch it and take it out to my backyard (to breed more roaches) -- I stomp him, clean up the mess, and move on...
These "people" (for want of a word that won't get me banned) are OUR enemy - not "someone else's problem"...

What the hell's going on???...where are these suicidal loon tunes coming from?...Guess it's about time to lock and load for these rabid dogs....


More from the religion of peace...
Exactly! There is no way better to illustrate his point than by observing the actions of those to which he was referring.
*boggles* The question is why can they not get it?
Duh! That's because it WASN'T an apology, you morons.
Somebody has to stand up to these bullies...and Benedict is the perfect person. OTOH, I love this pope and don't want anything to happen to him...
I just wonder how much worse this world can get until Judgment Day finally comes.
The Pope has studied Islam seriously, and I'm afraid he does understand it, sir!
Ah, but you see, she is home free, she's a true martyr. Sister Leonella died for her faith.
It's actually their doctrine since the birth of Islam; nothing has changed.
The More Islam protest the more it seems to appear that the 14th century document witness that what was written is true!
I don't think this should be confuese with Muslim who are peaceful, for they are not adhearing to those words!
Thereby making his point.
Capital punishment for words ? We should now state that the ultimate goal of the War on Terror should be to reform Islam. Apparently they do not understand the concepts of Free Speech and the concepts of Critical Analysis (otherwise known as Reason).
Some one Pleeeze call in the
Dog, Bounty Hunter.
thanks........
"I just wonder how much worse this world can get until Judgment Day finally comes."
Bad! Real bad my FRiend.
And what will the British authorities do about this? NOTHING!
You have done this before.......:) This post is a keeper for my records and writings. In my short 9 years overseas, I've also found a simple formula or, 5 phases/stages a "victim" to war and strife will go through while enduring the "peacekeeping" mission.
Five phases of a Peacekeeping operation
1. Please help us, we need you!
2. Thank you for coming, we love you!
3. Were glad you are here, what can you give us?
4. When are you leaving?
5. Leave NOW!
kosovo for example will begin (actually already did...), but a marked difference after September 22, 2006. If the UNMIK does not complete the final status in the favor of the K-Albanians, for sure, Internationals will be targeted soon. They were to some extent already, as a warning, but after Sept 22 for sure. Islam will take more of a role than before. Even though the Balkan culture is not wholly Muslim, they will allow the Saudi charities more leeway than before......
An interesting story here....
Twenty Year Plan Islam Targets America
by Dr. Anis Shorrosh
When we immigrated from Jerusalem, Jordan* in January, 1967, little did I imagine that Islam would become center-stage in world news. As my sincere interest in the growth of Islam in America intensified, I began to discuss, dialogue, and then debate Muslim leaders throughout the world from an Arab Christian's view of Islam. So far, I have had the privilege of participating in over 20 debates and discussions on every continent plus T.V. and radio. "Islam Revealed" was released in 1988 and is now in its 8th printing. The True Furqan is now in its third printing in the three years it has been published. It is the only book which challenges the Quran in substance, style, language and contents. "The True Furqan" can be located on http://www.answers-to-islam.net/ or http://www.islam-exposed.org/.
This is my analysis of the Islamic invasion of America, the agenda of Islamists and visible methods to take over America by the year 2020! Will Americans continue to sleep through this invasion as they did when we were attacked on 9/11?
1. Terminate America's freedom of speech by replacing it with hate crime bills state-wide and nation-wide.
2. Wage a war of words using black leaders like Louis Farrakhan, Rev. Jesse Jackson and other visible religious personalities to promote Islam as the original African-American's religion while Christianity is for the whites! Strange enough, no one tells the African-Americans that it was the Arab Muslims who captured them and sold them as slaves, neither the fact that in Arabic the word for black and slave is the same, "Abed."
3. Engage the American public in dialogues, discussions, debates in colleges, universities, public libraries, radio, TV, churches and mosques on the virtues of Islam. Proclaim how it is historically another religion like Judaism and Christianity with the same monotheistic faith.
4. Nominate Muslim sympathizers to political office for favorable legislation to Islam and support potential sympathizers by block voting.
5. Take control of as much of Hollywood, the press, TV, radio and the internet by buying the corporations or a controlling stock.
6. Yield to the fear of imminent shut-off of the lifeblood of America - the black gold. America's economy depends on oil, (1000 products are derived from oil), so does its personal and industrial transportation and manufacturing -41% comes from the Middle East.
7. Yell, "foul, out-of-context, personal interpretation, hate crime, Zionist, un- American, inaccurate interpretation of the Quran" anytime Islam is criticized or the Quran is analyzed in the public arena.
8. Encourage Muslims to penetrate the White House, specifically with Islamists who can articulate a marvelous and peaceful picture of Islam. Acquire government positions, get membership in local school boards. Train Muslims as medical doctors to dominate the medical field, research and pharmaceutical companies. Take over the computer industry. Establish Middle Eastern restaurants throughout the U.S. to connect planners of Islamization in a discreet way. Ever notice how numerous Muslim doctors in America are, when their countries need them more desperately than America?
9. Accelerate Islamic demographic growth via:
a. Massive immigration (100,000 annually since 1961)
b. No birth control whatsoever - every baby of Muslim parents is automatically a Muslim and cannot choose another religion later.
c. Muslim men must marry American women and Islamize them (10,000 annually). Then divorce them and remarry every five years - since one cannot have the Muslim legal permission to marry four at one time. This is a legal solution in America.
d. Convert angry, alienated black inmates and turn them into militants (so far 2000 released inmates have joined Al Qaida world-wide). Only a few have been captured in Afghanistan and on American soil. So far - sleeping cells!
10. Reading, writing, arithmetic and research through the American educational system, mosques and student centers (now 1500) should be sprinkled with dislike of Jews, evangelical Christians and democracy. There are 300 exclusively Muslim schools with loyalty to the Quran, not the U.S. Constitution.
11. Provide very sizeable monetary Muslim grants to colleges and universities in America to establish "Centers for Islamic studies" with Muslim directors to promote Islam in higher education institutions.
12. Let the entire world know through propaganda, speeches, seminars, local and national media that terrorists have hijacked Islam, not the truth, which is Islam hijacked the terrorists. Furthermore in January of 2002, Saudi Arabia's Embassy in Washington mailed 4500 packets of the Quran, videos, promoting Islam to America's high schools--free. They would never allow us to reciprocate.
13. Appeal to the historically compassionate and sensitive Americans for sympathy and tolerance towards the Muslims in America who are portrayed as mainly immigrants from oppressed countries.
14. Nullify America's sense of security by manipulating the intelligence community with misinformation. Periodically terrorize Americans of impending attacks on bridges, tunnels, water supplies, airports, apartment buildings and malls. (We have experienced this too often since 9-11.)
15. Form riots and demonstrations in the prison system demanding Islamic Sharia as the way of life, not American's justice system.
16. Open numerous charities throughout the U.S. but use the funds to support Islamic terrorism with American dollars.
17. Raise interest in Islam on America's campuses by insisting that freshman take at least one course on Islam. Be sure that the writer is a bonafide American, Christian, scholarly and able to cover up the violence in the Quran and express the peaceful, spiritual and religious aspect only.
18. Unify the numerous Muslim lobbies in Washington, mosques, Islamic student centers, educational organizations, magazines and papers by internet and an annual convention to coordinate plans, propagate the faith and engender news in the media of their visibility.
19. Send intimidating messages and messengers to the outspoken individuals who are critical of Islam and seek to eliminate them by hook or crook.
20. Applaud Muslims as loyal citizens of the US by spotlighting their voting record as the highest percentage of all minority and ethic groups in America.

This article was published by Koenig's International News.
"I think that warning needs to be understood by all people who want to insult Islam and want to insult the prophet of Islam."
Tehran -- Iranian cattle farmer Gofauk Yousef Fukir came upon what appears to be one of the most holy of cow pies ever today while tending his herd. It seems his prize Bull Osama plopped out a turd with an uncanny likeness to the most holy prophet, Mohammed.

"This is no ordinary bullsh*t," insisted Gofauk Yousef. "This sh*t is like something directly from Allah above. It hardly even smells. Well, maybe a little. But I haven't bathed in two years, so who can say, yes?"
A team of Iranian bullsh*tologists, dispatched from Tehran university's religious artifacts division was pulled away from evaluating the booty they plundered from the Iraqi museum during the early days of the Iraq / US war to examine Gofauk Yousef's religious crap. After careful study they confirmed that the cow patty did indeed take on the appearance of manure from heaven.

"Holy sh*t! Holy sh*t!!" Gofauk Yousef could be heard calling out to his friends and family, all the while sporting a wide smile befitting someone who had quite literally just stepped in heavenly sh*t, "Pack up the tent. We're going to Disneyland!" This is the profit I've been waiting for from all these years of tending goddamned cows".

THis is something I have found myself increasingly chewing on as well.
I can't stop laughing................:)) this is a blue ribbon.......office liked it too.
Hilarious! Excellent post!
I'm sure that John McCain wouldn't have any FUNDAMENTAL difference with this guy on the subject of free speech.
They both believe that free speech should be STRONGLY RESTRICTED. Perhaps they differ on enforcement techniques a bit, but not on general fundamental principles.

God tell you this?
Except for one or two points, the proposed steps to islamification are strikingly similar to those that have been followed by communists since even before McCarthy. No wonder the Libs like them so much!
Choudary's appeal for the death of Pope Benedict was the second time he has been linked with apparent incitement to murder within a year.

Another COWARD who raises hell in the streets and then insights those even less stable than himself to carry out acts truly against humanity.....this S.O.B. is the one that needs to be eliminated!
Let me get this right. Liberals say the use of capital punishment in society is barbaric. This muslim wants to use capital punishment against the Pope. Following the logic, can we safely say islam is barbaric?
Interesting......point. I guess it works.
actually, yes, but it was a whisper.
Wouldn't that be just about every muslim?
In retaliation, here's what we should do to them:
1.) Deport every muslim who is not a citizen.
2.) Don't hire any of the rest who live here, for any job at all. Don't lend them money. Don't interact at all with them.
3.) Don't let any more have visas in, or become citizens.
4.) Prosecute the remaining for sedition if they say a word against our country.
5.) Let them rot in jail once convicted.
6.) Make them a permanent underclass, which is what they want to be.
7.) When they start torching cars, then, prosecute a civil war.
Not trying to be mean, just trying to ensure the survival of our nation.
I don't think they have arrested him, or plan to. He is allowed to do this because he is a crybaby minority member.
Now if a white person were to say the same thing about a muslim leader, HE would be arrested and indicted for inciting violence.
Certainly you must be aware of the global double standard.
I'm afraid that is what it's actually going to come down too........
why are you being reasonable....they don't think that way. We have to be more sensitive to their needs and thing as unreasonable as possible in order to;....understand their culture.
I do understand they have been making some headway to the space program. The only problem has been that the catapults keep stretching the rubber BANDS too much each time that try to gain altitude. Also the communication system is somewhat limited due to running out string between cans............
240 bunker busters in 24 hours should be a great place to start.
Iran and Syria.....no 240 BB....but just one big one, that needs about a 20 mile standoff.......
