A Shiite Muslim woman holds a three-year old boy whose forehead was cut during a ceremony in Nabatiyeh on Sunday March 24, 2002. Hundreds of thousands of Shiite Muslims turned out across Lebanon on Sunday to mark Ashoura, the Shiite Muslim religious festival which marks the AD 680 battle in which Imam Hussein, the grandson of Islam's Prophet Mohammed, was killed.

No NO I take that back - that isn't "disgusting" - that's extreme child abuse!

It's a culture that conditions the children to be brutal.

And the next target of conquest, the USA. Watch our Congress run through the streets with blood dripping from their heads remembering the betrayal of Ali.

Anybody know why cutting is part of the "ritual"

The boy seems pretty calm for having blood all over him. Maybe he is used to seeing it with the Hamas Home Video's of the brave suicide bombers.

I don't want to be crass - - but many Muslims are "in to" female mutilation of the clitoris. I know it is gross and terrible - - but there are plenty of accounts of 12 year old girls going under the rusty razor while mom and grandma tee hee with delight.

Sick.

IMHO, you were not crass at all. Jean Sassoon's Princess books discuss the sick practice of Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) in some detail and the problems the sisters of the narrator had due to this disgusting custom. I will say no more because the whole thing is revolting. The more I learn, the more I am reminded of Jeremiah and Isaiah! These Muslims look an awful lot like Baal worshippers to me. Peaceful Religion my eye!

Go Here for more evidence of the insane blood-lust these people seem to harbor.

I'll have to hold this in my folder for when I have the liberals or the intellectually lazy tell us that we should respect all religions as equal and that Islamic folks are getting an unfair shake after 9/11. These usually are the same people who are horrified at the thought of circumcizing a week old baby or of a parent spanking thier child as a discipline measure. Should be interesting.

I keep thinking that the Klingons from Star Trek were modeled after these people.
