#1 ahh well its my birthday so am in a good mood and dont want hooky and friends to spoil it . soooo

Just remember what ol' Jack Burton does when the earth quakes, the poison arrows fall from the sky, and the pillars of Heaven shake. Yeah, Jack Burton just looks that big old storm right in the eye and says, "Give me your best shot. I can take it."
Big Trouble in Little China - pure class and slighty off topic :P

#2 Like Abu Hamza, Bakri dwelt at length on the topic of death and martyrdom. He explained that Muslims should welcome death to get to paradise.

They're big on the concept, not so much on the execution. Especially when it involves them.

#3 Omar Bakri and Captain Hook drawing attention in the UK

If by "drawing attention" they mean "hourly cavity searches," then that's a good thing.

"If you die to defend your religion, you are a martyr. ... Die honorably, don't die humiliated."

One must suppose that life as a murderous fanatic is merely constant and ongoing "humiliation" (there's that word again!). Perhaps it only ends when the detonator contacts close.

#4 For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction - Isaac Newton

Action : "Seek the way of death; try to do actions that subject you to death," the Muslim cleric told his audience, most of them young men, as they sat at Friday prayers. "If you die to defend your religion, you are a martyr. ... Die honorably, don't die humiliated." - Abu Hamza al-Masri

Reaction : Anyone living here who blatantly displays anti-British sentiment should be either prosecuted and incarcerated, or, if from foreign shores, immediately packed off from whence they came," columnist Jane Moore (Sun Tabloid)

Nothing unusual, just Isaac Newton!

While I neither advocate nor enjoy such isolationism, it is precisely this sort of backlash against Muslims in general that I have been predicting for some time now. Admittedly, this is no big surprise but I can only speculate as to how long it will take for those of the Islamic faith to understand how terrorists and militant Islamists are slitting all of their collective throats.

#7 It's a theological flaw I believe, my dear Mr. Zensler. The last Muslim theologian of any note to recommend anything other than a literal interpretation of Muslim holy scriptures was Averroes almost thousand years ago. So Muslims, even those who try to sneak like cockroaches into the well-scrubbed western kitchens, are stuck with their story.

And the story is that God has as His goal the imposition of Shari'a Law upon all mankind. There have been stupid despots rising in the east since time immemorial, but this recent lot waving the Koran is very hard to bear.

They are committed to the violent overthrow of the laws under which they have chosen to live as guests from far away. And there's no way out from beneath the scriptures.

They must be crushed.

#8 "Islam embraces diversity, love and compassion," he said. "It's about caring for other people."

Yeah, they care about other people, all right. Check out the Nick Berg snuffy video and listen to all the nutcases chanting "Allahu Akbar!" while they saw his head off with a dull knife.
The Brits (and us as well) better understand our enemy and act upon the knowledge before we are up to our arms in this behavior. After all, the UK has honor killings of daughters already.

#9 They are committed to the violent overthrow of the laws under which they have chosen to live as guests from far away.

And if all Muslims truly seek world-wide imposition of Shari'a law, then their swift repayment shall be aught but death and quite possibly the extinction of their entire religion and its practitioners as a whole. If such is their goal, when that final day comes to pass, I shall not mourn the loss.
