#1 The same would apply if "kufar (infidels) occupied your homeland..." he said.

I agree. The infidels are occupying the British homeland.

al-Muhajiroun Web sites have shut down

I used to get great stuff from al-Muhajiroun to post here in Rantburg. I knew those postings would provoke snit-fits from Robert Crawford Frank G. every single time.

#3 Yes, you're Socrates... or maybe you're the pea from the Princess and the Pea... or hay-fever pollen. Something like that. No matter, you're really important 'round here. Dunno how RB was able to survive before you showed up. I know I was sure pleased when the big day arrived. Woo hoo.

I can cause a snit-fit from .com while blind-folded and standing on my head and with both hands tied behind my back.

#5 Lol! Snit-fit? You're such a tool, Mikey, lol! Our very own American Madeâ¢ Tranzi Bitch! And now with the new improved auto-pneumatic ego! ROFL!!!

#6 Mikey's pretty proud of himself and who can blame him. He's even better at turning the subject of a thread into himself than he-who-shall-not-be-named.

#7 Mike, do yourself a favor and avoid baiting people. It does nothing for your cause.

I knew those postings would provoke snit-fits from Robert Crawford Frank G. every single time. .

If that was your sole intent, I know more than a few people who would call that trolling - something that I would hope you eschew.

As to the matter at hand:

"I believe Muslims are obliged to support their Muslim brothers abroad -- verbally, financially, politically," Bakri told The Associated Press. "I never said âgo abroad.â

"But if people want to go abroad itâs a very good thing to do," he added. "But we never recruit people to go abroad."

Soho poofters could take lessons in mincing from Bakri.

"It is best to mince one's words very finely. It makes them so much easier to eat afterwards."

#8 Heh - good quote - I hadn't seen that one, before - and I've collected several from the Other Master of English (Ambrose Bierce being the American model), lol!

#9 For shame, Michael Sylwester! You are old enough to behave better than a socially inept adolescent boy. I thought you honestly meant to be helpful and informative in your own tactless way. But if your only purpose is to annoy people, go away and play with people who like that kind of idiocy.

I really hate having to apologise to Rantburg for standing up for a person I naively didn't realize was being deliberately asinine.

#10
Since Trailing Wife does consistently demand decency from all Rantburgers and since she has defended me, I am shamed into apologizing. Here is my peace offering:

I'm careful of the words I say,
To keep them soft and sweet,
I never know from day to day
Which one's I'll have to eat..
.

#11 Bravely said, Mike. Keep up the sweetness...even Trailing Daughter, looking over my shoulder at our posts, is not surprised by the behaviour which provoked my outburst. I guess I'm the only naive person addicted to this site.

#12 I guess I'm the only naive person addicted to this site.

I must say that it's entirely mistaken for you to be lumping yourself together with Gentle and her ilk, trailing wife.

I'm careful of the words I say,
To keep them soft and sweet,
I never know from day to day
Which one's I'll have to eat..

Perish the thought, Mike. While I refuse to believe that you are taking a swipe at free speech hereabouts, you're still wide of the mark. The idea is not remaining confined to dulcet tones in all one writes, but to stay on point. Posting solely for the sake of getting a rise out of people is puerile at best. I'd like to think that you can do better.

#13 I, for one, welcome the puppet strings of my master "Mikey of the Kofi Buttboy club"

#14 "socially inept adolescent boy" someone talkingabout me again?

I can't understand what this article is telling me. These clowns certainly have not stopped there Jihadi recrutment and anti western incitement. If I had my way I would make it impossible for the death cult of the moon god to or it's members to exist in our society. People could take to walking their pet goats thru muslim neighborhood over there in large groups for instance.

#15 TW - you need to remember this place was here before you ever got here - it's called Rant burg for a reason. Mike's baiting doesn't bother me, I pay my dues via paypal (monthly). The den mother gig isn't open. My apologies if you're offended, get over it

#16 btw - if Mike thinks it's a great thing to be posting UN-apologist articles from deep within Kofi's ass, so be it. His rep suffers accordingly

#17 You're right of course, Frank, and I'm not offended. But you guys do invective so much better and more effectively than I do -- I never really got much past Mom and Academic (and being able to do Mom in German isn't any more effective than in English with this crowd). That's why I ended post #9 with an apology to y'all.
