When they get his name (and the Muslims will), this scholar is a dead man walking.

Well this explains much. No wonder they are perpetually angry.
No wonder they hate the West; I can see the merchant accepting shipment of virgins, only to find raisins.

I can't wait to hear more on this.

Not just raisins, but the purest, whitest, sweetest raisins imaginable. So good that no raisin on earth ever more than hinted of the most excellent quality of these raisins. It probably means more if you live in the desert with 40 miles between one brackish spring to the next. Also, Arabic must be understood to get the point, which is not raisins.

It warms the cockles of my heart to think of all the disappointed jihadies. I'm sure Little Tommy is deeply saddened however.

It's grapes, really, but grapes become raisins easily enough in Arabia or Fresno.

I wonder if they're wearing: "I blew myself up, and all I got were these lousy raisins," t-shirts?

I thought they were GLASS raisins!
BUT are they SEEDLESS???
To: pubmom
I've reexamined the original ancient texts, and I believe they're actually promised another dried fruit - prunes. That should keep them busy in the afterlife!

So how many thousands have died during the last 1500 years for a box of SunMaids?
