Imam to leave Denmark after caricature crisis
2006-05-11
Denmark's most prominent Muslim leader, who led criticism of a Danish newspaper that published drawings of the Prophet Muhammad, has decided to leave the country, the daily reported Thursday.
"My work here is done."
Imam Ahmed Abu Laban said he has felt Humiliated® in the aftermath of the cartoon controversy, which led to riots around the world, and that he would leave Denmark to return to seethe and vow Dire Revenge™ in Gaza with his family, the Jyllands-Posten newspaper wrote. "I have recently felt that I am being viewed as a simple terrorist. No human being can accept that. It is an extreme Humiliation®," Abu Laban was quoted as saying. "I have taken the decision to leave Denmark."
"Plus, I now see that there is greater opportunity for advancement within the organization in a an up-and-coming area like Gaza. Being a holy man, of course, I never have gun sex myself, but my kids like it."
Abu Laban is the leading figure of the Copenhagen-based Islamic Faith Community, representing about 10 percent of Denmark's 200,000 Muslims.

#12  We'll know the war is really on when we start seeing mosques blown up in Europe and muzzies beheaded on Internet video. I don't think that's too far off, personally.

Cows with Guns.

#10  The Danes are not compelled to let him continue living there.

Minor correction.

Guess what, Abu baby. Most of Gaza's population are terrorists or terrorism supporters.

PS: Go right ahead, let the door hit you on the butt on your way out.

Well done Mr. Abu Laban for your work in Denmark. But I am surprised that you are leaving. Are the Danish bovines no longer recognizing that you are superior to them? Are they no longer giving you preferential treatment over the Christians and the Jews? Are they refusing to recognize that they are soon to become dhimmis? How dare they! I guess we need to humiliate these bovines even more. We've near ruined their bovine industries with our economic boycott. We made them beg for forgiveness. They need even more humiliation? Mr. Abu Laban, stay there in Denmark and work for the Sharia law. Let the bovines know that they are to be dhimmis in the near future. Let them know that they are to submit to the Sharia. Let them know that Muslims will settle for NOTHING LESS than preferential treatment today and mastery over them tomorrow. And show them why they are inferior to you.

"Never mind."

#4  Notice:

No shame for having incited the ignorant muslim world. No taking of responsibility. No reflection that perhaps his actions were wrong.

After all, he's the one who went on a tour of the muslim world with the cartoons from the newspaper AND OTHER cartoons that had nothing to do with the newspaper to fan the flames of hatred and divisiveness.

Instead, he's a "victim." Says he's treated like a terrorist. He's humiliated.

He could do with a bit of Jewish guilt, I say!

#3  Perhaps if he was known as a mastermind or even notable terrorist instead of just a 'simple' one he'd feel better when the door hits him in the ass. Maybe Hamas won't read his updated resume'.
