"Muslims are loftier...." |
2003-11-07 |
From DHIMMIWATCH - EFL "Look at the Iranian Sufi leader, Sheikh Tabandeh, who wrote A Muslim Commentary on the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. To take one of many examples: while arguing for capital punishment if a Muslim is killed, Tabandeh argues against it if the murderer is Muslim and the victim non-Muslim. "Since Islam regards non-Muslims as on a lower level of belief and conviction, if a Muslim kills a non-Muslim . . . then his punishment must not be the retaliatory death, since the faith and conviction he possesses is loftier than that of the man slain. A fine only may be exacted from him . . ." A "fine" cut of his tenderloin works for me.... |

#9 I am not a dog - far more like a wolf. I also like muslims slightly grilled, with a side of mustard. |

#8 As far as I know the folks across all of North Africa were Sufi's until very recently when Saudi oil funds have helped push Wahhabism from an extreme wacko branch of Islam into the nightmare we see today with tentacles in every Islamic country. And yes, the Mahdi's folks were batty just as the Ayatollah's brand of Shia Islam is batty compared to the general history of Shia Islam. And I bet if transportation was a bit more available back then thousands of Jihadists would have come to Sudan to fight with the Mahdi just as they flowed in to help the Taliban and to fight in Iraq. Oh, and you are right, there are lots of people that don't dance that are not flower children as well. |

#7 Yeah, JFM, I was going to say something like that, too, but then my (leaky) memory seemed to recall that a lot of the Mahdi's followers that ate Chinese Gordon's lunch in the late 1800's in the Sudan were Sufis. Just cause they dance doesn't mean they're flower children. (someone who ACTUALLY knows this stuff, feel free to correct me.) |

#6 And don't forget he is a Sufi, ie a moderate, a (sort of) good guy. |

#1 How about upping the ante? Any Muslim that kills a non-Muslim in a non-Muslim country will be swiftly put to death, along with THEIR IMMEDIATE FAMILY, and their assets donated to Israel. |
