| Iranians Write Letters to Jesus Complaining About Fitna |
| 2008-05-22 |
| It may seem surreal, but several Muslim bloggers have written letters to Jesus Christ in their blogs complaining about Western insults against Muslims, and particularly Dutch MP Geert Wilders' anti-Islamic film, Fitna. .... Goldokhtar, a female religious student, starts her letter to Jesus by writing “Hello Mr. Jesus Christ”. She continues : Do you know what I am thinking? When and where did all these these Fitnas start? A few years ago these anti-Islamic films began to be produced. Before the Islamic Revolution, nobody paid attention to Islam and its saints… After the Islamic Revolution other revolutions took off… Then they did not know what to do, and they started doing childish things to hurt Islam's image in the world. The blogger adds that several films such as Not without My Daughter and 300 should be countered with films by Muslims. Mehdi writes: Christ, I am a Muslim who likes you. Don't be sad about insults to your brother Muhammad, the Prophet. We all know these people are not your followers. They are not the ones who carry the cross, but launch crusades and kill people. The blogger questions whether the growing number of cinematic attacks on Muslims are coordinated. Pangare writes to Jesus: Help us to resist these insults… I know you support us and you can read my heart. |

| #10 Save the postage. Write a letter and throw it down a well. The 12th Imam will see that he gets it. |

| #8 Jesus replies: "Sorry, you're all going to hell. Nothing I can do about it, Dad is kind of adamant. I don't make the rules." |

| #5 Fitna consists entirely of passages from the koran. Try writing to Mohammed or the mullahs who preach death, rape and enslavement of non-muslims. Until then enjoy your wankfest. |

| #3 Whiners! This is a drop in the ocean compared to the anti-Christian films produced every year. And these isn't so much 'anti' Islamic as 'true' Islamic. Fitna is based on well documented facts - 300 predates Islam. |
