Gaza Muslims form Group to Attack Christian Targets (unless Pope apologizes further)

Gazan Muslims Form Group to Attack Christian Targets 23:03 Sep 19, '06 / 26 Elul 5766 by Ezra HaLevi

Muslims in Hamas-controlled Gaza have formed an ad hoc terrorist group promising to attack Christian targets to avenge the Pope’s choice of a quotation insinuating that Islam is prone to violence.

The group, which calls itself the “Army of guidance,” sent an announcement to news agencies based in Gaza saying that “every place relevant to Christians will be a target until the cursed infidel – the Vatican – apologizes to Muslims.”

Hardline Islamic groups were offended by the Pope’s citing of a Byzantine emperor who criticized Islam’s founder Mohammad’s command to spread Islamic faith by the sword.

Last Friday, the 1,400 year old St. Perfidious Greek Orthodox church in Gaza was among seven Christian targets burned or vandalized throughout PA-controlled areas.

Pope Benedict XVI has refused to apologize for merely citing quotations, but said he was “deeply sorry” for the Muslim reaction to the words – which he stressed do not constitute his own opinion.

Though touted as an apology by the Vatican’s own public relations team, Islamic leaders continue to demand submission from the leader of Catholicism.

The chief Islamic Mufti of Jerusalem Mohammed Hussein called the Pope’s statement of sorrow insufficient and demanded a “clear apology” Tuesday. He condemned attacks on churches but insisted the Pope himself is responsible for the Muslim violence.

Could Islam stand if one of the 5 pillars fell?

Mecca is a Islamic supremacist's dream. A city with zero tolerance for those of other faiths. If this is not representative of "true Islam", why don't more muslims speak out against the policy? One of the five pillars is that they must make a pilgrimage to Mecca.

And they continue to use violence to prove how non-violent they are.

I know this is beating a dead horse, preaching to the choir etc., but FReepers apparently have to beat and preach as the msm never points out just how really irrational muzzies are.

This is blatant discrimination? Is Target Catholic or something? Shouldn't Christian Wal-Marts and Christian Kohl's receive their share of the blame?

Honestly, this whole thing would be one huge SNL skit if it weren't for the fact that actual property is being destroyed and actual people are being killed. Doesn't Islam know how stupid they look?

Shalom.

Muslims are adamant that they will kill anyone that calls them killers. Yet we continue to apologize to them? The pope is the one who should be demanding an apology.

The following says it all about the Islamic Fascists and the stupidity of those who try to appease them:

"Muslims . . . have formed a . . . terrorist group promising to attack Christian targets to avenge the Pope . . . insinuating that Islam is prone to violence."

Odd that the "Christians' holy war" is only against the muslims (and perhaps some turf war in Ireland) while the "muslims' holy war" is being conducted around the world against Jews, Christians, Hindus, Buddhists, and even other muslims who don't subscribe to the same form of Islam.

terrorist group promising to attack Christian targets

Hold on guys. George Bush may be making it easier if you just wait a while.

Yesterday, again, he allowed his peace visions which include you getting control over so many more Christian sites.

How does the Church of the Holy Sepulcher sound as a target?

Today it's protected by Israel but if Bush gets his way....

Apparently Islam is only violent if you notice it.

The chief Islamic Mufti of Jerusalem Mohammed Hussein.... condemned attacks on churches but insisted the Pope himself is responsible for the Muslim violence.

You made me violent its all your fault!!!!

An obscure Italian church fresco painted 600 years ago might lead to a new flareup in the Mohammed controversy.

The wall painting depicts Mohammed as a sinner tormented in hell.

The wall painting was singled out by a Muslim organization in Italy as an insult to Islam. Its leaders demanded the pope John Paul II to take it down (meaning to destroy it, since frescos cannot be removed) or to cover it.

The pope refused to do so and as a reprisal a Muslim terror cell, unconnected with the complaining organization, decided to blow the church up.

Fortunatelly, the police caught the plotters in time. However, the painting has become a new rallying point for muslim fundamentalists everywhere and can lead to new troubles in the future.

I have a GREAT conciliatory quote for the Pope...He could just touch up the names and dates to make it more relevant.

The Kozaks of the Dnieper to the Sultan of Turkey:
Thou Turkish Satan, brother and companion to the accursed Devil, and companion to Lucifer himself, Greetings!
What the hell kind of noble knight art thou? The Devil voids, and thy army devours. Never wilt thou be fit to have the sons of Christ under thee: thy army we fear not, and by land and on sea we will do battle against thee.
Thou scullion of Babylon, thou wheelwright of Macedonia, thou beer-brewer of Jerusalem, thou goat-flayer of Alexandria, thou swineherd of Egypt, both the Greater and the Lesser, thou sow of Armenia, thou goat of Tartary, thou hangman of Kamenetz, thou evildoer of Podoliansk, thou grandson of the Devil himself, thou great silly oaf of all the world and of the netherworld and, before our God, a blockhead, a swine's snout, a mare's ___, a butcher's cur, an unbaptized brow, May the Devil take thee! That is what the Kozaks have to say to thee, thou basest-born of runts! Unfit art thou to lord it over true Christians!
The date we write not for no calendar have we got; the moon is in the sky, the year is in a book, and the day is the same with us here as with thee over there, and thou canst kiss us thou knowest where!

We need to be "culturally sensitive" to the fact that they don't have irony in their culture, and let them burn churches to prove that they are peaceful.

So these brain dead fools are going to attack more Orthodox church's to get back at the pope who speaks for Catholics. More evidence that these people are to ignorant of Christianity to expect us to give a damn about Islam.

Mohammed was damned because he was the great heresiarch who produced a heresy that divided the world - which was why he was shown being cut up, because he was a "Sower of Discord." In fact, he was chief among them. Dante knew whereof he spoke.
