Explaining 9/11 to a Muslim Child [Barfer]
NY Times ^ | 9/11/9

Posted on 09/11/2009 9:48:50 AM PDT by NativeNewYorker

Recently on the morning drive to school my 8-year-old son asked me a question I’ve been dreading since he was a baby, “Mom, what happened on 9/11?”

Mass murder is impossible to explain to yourself, let alone a child. But how do I, as a parent, explain the slaughter of innocent people in the name of a religion that I am trying to pass on to my boy?

It’s easy.

Convert to a non-Satanic religion, renounce Islam, teach your boy how horrible Islam is and that it’s founder was a murderer, thief and pedophile, then strap explosives on your body and detonate them in a mosque.

That’s good for starters.

Q. "What happened on 9/11?"

A. "The morality of the Koran was demonstrated."

Well, just tell little Bilal the truth. Allah demands death to the infidels, and all the world must come under the control of Islam, and that anyone killed in the holy war against the unbelievers has a sure shot to heaven...well, as sure as anyone...which for the muslim, is an eternal pleasure palace of carnality.

He’ll probably understand.

You see son, when you kill an infidel for Allah, you get to go to heaven and you’re given 72 virgins to do with as you please. So these people weren’t actually murderers, they are heroes. We have a word for them...we call them Martyrs. Don’t you want to be a Martyr for Allah when you grow up?

I’m sure the NYT ran a similar article today, written by a parent who lost a spouse on 9/11, about explaining to their child why Mom or Dad is gone. /s

Judging by the replies to that article, our nation is in worse shape than I thought.

Tell him the truth, that you worship a cult that believes in murder, rape, lying, stealing, and maiming. You believe that the sick demented twisted trash that you pray to wants you to perform these acts in its name. Tell him that in all honesty (something you are unable to comprehend) that he would be better off worshipping a pile of dog crap than what you are forcing upon him. This would be a good start for you.

There are a hell of a lot more then a few bad apples in islam. I know all groups have bad people but islam has millions of fanatics. It's almost impossible not to be an extremist if you follow the teachings of the pedophile.

Please don’t judge a billion people by a few bad apples.

Huh? Your cult founder was a murderer and pedophile.

“Over the years, I’ve tried to protect my son from any negative associations made with Islam. I’ve developed lightening quick reflexes — the second I hear a story about suicide bombers or terrorists on the radio, I switch to a pop music station”

omfg.. Yep, that sums it up. Just deny it all, that’s how you deal with it instead of leaving the cult.

And people wonder why so many hate them? And the left wonders why we’ll eventually be in a war with them that’ll make WW2 look like a picnic?

How about telling the eight year old tyke “If it happens again, you won’t make it to nine”

I’ll be happy to say it.

Also this is merely another attack/ front of the ongoing 1400 years of theocratic expansion. Nothing more. The intent is to bring the world under one religion, the only one, the true and just islam.
Bilal it is up to you as a muslim to continue the jihad, because that is who you are and what you are destined for. Allah has a great place for you.

Islam is Islam and it has been assaulting all others for the last fourteen hundred years. It is barbaric and backwards. Welcome to the following. You can always change your faith, but then we would have to kill you. So, be a happy muslim.... and go kill some christians. Islam knows no other way.

The comments are moderated, so only the pro-islam ones will show up. I’d be willing to bet most of those are from islamic/european countries as well.

The above comments really do sum it up. Just say that islam promotes human sacrifice for sexual pleasure in the afterlife as the very foundation of its idealogy. That’s all that ever needs to be said about it.
