Pakistan Diplomat to U.S.: "Lay Off Our Prophet" [The Truth? Pedophile and Serial Bigamist?]

September 21 Pakistan Diplomat to U.S.: "Lay Off Our Prophet"

Pamela Falk. Pakistan Ambassador to the United Nations Abdullah Hussain Haroon tells CBS News' Pamela Falk that if the U.S. wants to stop the attacks against American embassies, to "lay off our prophet, just lay off our prophet [Mohammed]. Is that asking too much?"

On a deadly day of violent protests in Pakistan, when thousands rampaged in Islamabad, Lahore, Karachi and Peshawar, burned American flags. and condemned the anti-Muslim film, Pakistani U.N. Ambassador Abdullah Hussain Haroon told CBS News' Pamela Falk that if the U.S. wants to stop the attacks against American embassies, "just lay off our Prophet, just lay off our Prophet. Is that too much to ask?"

Friday was declared an official holiday, a "Day of Love for the Prophet" and although officials urged non-violence in protests, some analysts in Pakistan and around the world, criticized the government for a day of killing and mob action that may have been, by design or by accident, seen as government support for the anger.

In one of the largest protests of those that have taken place recently around the world, at least 19 people died and dozens of business were torched, particularly Western restaurants and businesses.

In an attempt to prevent cellphone-detonated bombs, the government of Pakistan -- the nation with one of the largest Muslim populations in the world -- blocked cellphone service in over a dozen cities, a act that has widespread effect in a nation with 120 million cellphone subscribers over anti-Muslim film

Despite tear gas and live ammunition fired by Pakistani police to quell the violence, and TV ads purchased by the U.S. Embassy in an attempt to distance the U.S. government from the film, anger was in the streets throughout Pakistan.

Agreed.

Polygamy is not a sin against God, it is simply against the laws of the US, and am bound by God to respect the laws of the land I reside in.

The Apostle Paul limited Bishops to one wife, that they wouldn’t be distracted from their office in the church.

The Apostles considered themselves co-elders with the church and Paul was celibate. He would that all the disciples were celibate, but he suffered them to marry.

The one wife wasn’t a requirement, but rather a limit, but I repeat myself.

Well, I was thinking we could then make a video of the glass crater with some subtext and no sound...maybe a city limit sign at the edge for effect.

Then we could distribute it to the raghead slammers...maybe ask them to evaluate the video.

What is wrong with you muzzlems? Is Mo the best you could find? What a reject he was. You need to start all over again. Just pretend Mo never existed and you wanted to dream up a real prophet, not a criminal. Pretend you had a prophet who was a good holy man. Maybe you could come up with a real religion instead of an insane cult.

Kind of like basing a religion on Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, or any number of democrats. I won’t even mention obama. No one is THAT stupid.

So, Did you hear the one about the Cowboy, The Indian & the Muslim Extremist?

Three strangers awaiting their flights strike up a conversation in the airport passenger lounge in Bozeman, Montana. One is an American Indian passing through from Lame Deer. Another is a Cowboy on his way to Billings for a livestock show. And the third is a fundamentalist Arab student, newly arrived at Montana State University from the Middle East who is headed to a training conference in Detroit.

Their discussion drifts to their diverse cultures. Soon, the two Westerners learn that the Arab is a devout, radical Muslim who supports Osama Bin Laden’s Jihad, so the conversation falls into an uneasy lull. The cowboy leans back in his chair, crosses his boots on a magazine table and tips his big sweat-stained hat forward over his face. The wind outside is blowing tumbleweeds around, and the old windsock is flapping; but still . . . no plane comes.

Finally, ! the American Indian clears his throat and softly, he speaks, “At one time here, my people were many, but sadly, now we are few.”

The Muslim student raises an eyebrow and leans forward, “Once my people were few,” he sneers, “and now we are many. Why do you suppose that is?”

The Montana cowboy shifts his toothpick to one side of his mouth and from the darkness beneath his Stetson says in a drawl, “That’s ‘cause we ain’t played Cowboys and Muslims yet, . . . but I do believe it’s a-comin’.”

The Islamic world alone is reason enough to continue above ground nuke testing. Like directly over their heads.

Genesis 2:24.... “Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.”

That these Patriarchs and Kings went outside the Bible’s “singular” marital standard is certainly not the fault of the Bible.

There are many gods, and Allah is one of them, and Mohammad is his Pervert. Every since the two of them got together, they have oppressed mankind, and made the world miserable. As long as they are around, nothing is going to change.

>> “There are many gods” <<

.
Yes, the “fallen ones” described in Genesis. The “Lake that burns with Brimstone” was created for them.

Why? Is their prophet too weak to stand against scrutiny? Is their religion too fragile that it will fail if people criticize it? It is a diverse world, and if their religion is can’t handle anyone saying anything negative about it, they need to just quit.

They kill anyone who questions the “prophet” and anyone who converts from Islam to Christianity is a proper target for murder. Sharia Law in action. This is the most barbaric religion based on the deception of an itinerant and illiterate mass murderer, sexual predator, and child molester by having sex with a 6-year old and calling it “marriage.”

Their religion has taken on the characteristics of the one who created it. Terror, violence, brutality and mistreatment of women, girls, and anyone who does not practice their religion but has the misfortune of living in their midst. It is a religion based on fear and the enforcement of fear.
