So the muslems use the crusades 600 years ago to rationalize violence now days. The only really violent bunch of people are muslems.

Idea: What if everyone agrees to sort of makes fun of Muslims in a kind hearted way -- a few jokes, cartoons, pointing out hypocrisy. Nothing racist. Just some sarcastic jabs. Like the Press Core dinner making fun of Bush.

If millions of us joked about Islam, then guys like Rushdie or the Pope wouldn't be easy targets. They'd have to kill all of us.

Wait. Never mind.

"D--- it! This is a religious war and most will not say it!!"

The muslims have quite clearly said this.

When someone says they're going to wipe me off the face of the Earth, I tend to believe they intend to do so.

Thank you for posting this.

I've been advising folks for quite some time now to familiarize themselves with world history...it's repeating itself again.

We need to fund something - a vehicle that has a chance to be heard somewhere.

Sole purpose...? To piss off the muzzie / Islamo crapheads.

Lot's of the right cartoons. Lot's of "Allah is so F***** up" jokes. Lot's of articles detailing specifically what that religion / cult has contributed to the cultural evolution of man.....

I volunteer for that last one.

tick...tick...

Ok, I'm done.

But we can have prizes - 100 points to the poster that starts a NEW jihad, etc, 75 points if we get a rise from the head Iran raghead, etc.

I've had enough of and heard enough from these a$$holes.

The Pope needs to come out and say, "sorry, just kidding about that apology stuff - you guys really are the idiots!"

I wish.

No, it's not just the US - and you will find some Australian newspapers get it right and refer to His Eminence as George Cardinal Pell.

Australian newspapers are notorious for getting titles and honourifics wrong. The one that really annoys me is that Australian newspapers often refer to our last Chief of the Defence Force as 'Major-General Peter Cosgrove' - he's very popular and is quite often mentioned as a potential Governor-General so he's mentioned a fair bit.

He was a Major-General at the time he became well known in Australia - when he was given command of Australian troops in East Timor in 1999. But for some reason, Australian journalists couldn't seem to grasp that he stopped being a Major-General after that - he had two further promotions through Lieutenant-General to General - and the newspapers still constantly get it wrong. It's insulting that they don't take the care they should.

The Pontiff has since apologised, saying he is deeply sorry about angering so many Muslims

I'm sure the ABC writer would have liked the Pope to say that but his phrasing wasn't quite that, was it?

"I am deeply sorry for the reactions in some countries to a few passages of my address at the University of Regensburg, which were considered offensive to the sensibility of Muslims," the pope said.

Thanks for the confirm re: George Cardinal Pell, etc, nm. It wasn't just Aussie papers that I'd noticed this in lately, btw.

Makes me wonder re: the Major-General - do the papers think that Major-General is a higher rank than 'just' General?
