All it took was to discover 19 terrorists with a ton of explosives in beautiful downtown Riyadh!

“Islam has nothing to do with terrorism and the two do not meet at any point,” he said.

Ok, prove it. Issue a fatwah against any Muslim practicing terrorism.

You nailed it. A major attitude shift going on here - right in line with the story about the public manhunt for the terrorists in Saudi Arabia.

The Shariah considers terrorism one of the most heinous crimes, says Dr. Abdullah Al-Turki, secretary-general of the Makkah-based Muslim World League. “Islam has nothing to do with terrorism and the two do not meet at any point,” he said.

-------------------------

This is correct. The problem is, when terrorism is done in the name of Allah and Mohammed, it's not considered terrorism.

This story has been front page news here. I've never seen anti-Terror headlines as a banner item in the four years I've been here. Yesterday's Arab News had all 19 terror suspect photos on the front page with several support stories. Normally bad news is deeply buried in all the semi-free press.

showing mercy and compassion to our fellow human beings is the hallmark of Islam

Pursuant to proof of which, I summon the ghosts of 3,500 witnesses who were in the Trade Center Sept. 11, 2001.

Sell it somewhere else, sheikh.

Amen, brother. Amen. And until these oh-so-holy Imams issue said fatwah, I too will look on this latest "revelation" as just so much empty "religion of peace" public-relations blather.

no, terrorism is embedded in the arab language. look up the word "assassin" in your dictionary.

in my random house:

1., murderer, esp. one who carries out a plot to kill a public official or other prominent person. 2. assassin. a member of a secret order of moslem fanatics who terrorized and killed christian crusaders. [fr, ,med. lat. assassinus ,ar. hashshashin, user of hashish

in other words, an assassin is one who steals out into the night to either kill public officials (arab?), or two, christian crusaders while stoned on hashish.

Another lying Arab Islamist....

When they start destroying practioners of terrorism....like Arafat and his thugs, then I'll give them some credit for regaining sanity..

If these bastards want to survive.....they BETTER learn to live in peace with the world....

Otherwise -- we are better off to be rid of them...

Semper Fi

“The life of the Prophet is full of examples of noble qualities and strong morality,” the imam said

It is also full of depravity too.

Taleb noted that the Prophet prayed for mercy for the non-believers who had hurt him and his companions,M

funny he forgot to mention that the "prophet" also proscribed beating the fingertips off and wacking the heads and hands off of those who refused to become his followers, all mercifuly I am sure...

Now if only there had been such a pronouncement when the original Ibn Saud teamed up with the original Wahab in the early 1700's and it had been echoed when we were covering up for Wahabbi totalitarianism because we wanted to be dependent on the oil that came to fuel the Terror.
