#1 ...and in other news, the 'New York Times' has begun it's 25 part series on Koran abuse at Guantanamo Bay. This includes a shocking new revelation that some of the American guards actually used foul language in a room immediately adjacent to the room in which spare Korans were stored. Journalism insiders are quietly predicting yet another Pulitzer prize for the Times.

#3 a search of NOW's website for Mukhtar Mai brings, as expected, "no results".

#4 frankly a pandemic hemmorhagic fever, striking only Pakistani men, might make for some good "Allah Ahkbar" entertainment

#5 Do the town councils keep a list of potential rapists? Maybe council rapist is an elected office. I suspect that nepotism may play a role.

#6 You guys who commented before me seem suprised? I have been seeing the liberals align themselves slowly and silently to those mongrel bastards for some time. Playing down all their subhuman acts and decrying any, even the smallest slight against the "religion of peace and love". They are not so far apart in their ideologies, you are entitled to your opinion as long as it is the same as theirs, or god help your poor dumb ass.

#7 Of course they're aligning, Big Jim -- they have the same common enemy.

#11 Katie Al-couric will skip this for the all-important 1 yr 2 mos anniversary of Abu Grahib

#12 You know, it's not NOW, Katie Couric, or the NYT's anti-koranic-abuse division that thinks we can sell these guys more F-16's...

#13 Hard call. There's a case to be made the Bush strongarmed Musharraf into helping with the GWOT and continues to do so. Case in point: every time he publicly praises M for helping, it makes it harder for M to go along w/ the Islamacists. Rock and hard place approaching each other.

I have mixed feelings about F-16s in Pakistan. OTOH, we have a good track record of building relations with the military in countries where the pols are assholes or worse. Case in point: France, where the military are a lot more pro-US than the general public. We help to keep it that way ....

#14 in retribution for her brotherâs alleged affair with a woman of a powerful rival clan. That was a concocted story

Damn sure it was concocted.

He and his sister were low "caste" muslim, they were high "caste".

They raped the 12 year old boy and made up the charges to cover their tracks when they were about to be exposed.
The sister was then "judicially" gang raped.

#16 Utterly Sickning! I can't express my anger, Thank God for the United States, atleast some of us can live fairly but I say f*ck the liberal left, we should be spreading democracy at almost any cost.

#17 It's things like this that force me to believe the only "instrument of change" that will actually succeed is brute force applied liberally. It's almost impossible to change a mind that ossified a thousand years ago.

In the end, the only solution may be the total disillusion of Islam and the destruction or containment of any followers until they die of old age.

Of course, first we'll have to have a "meeting of the minds" with the loonitic liberal left. A nice hickory axehandle across the bridge of the nose in an upsweep works miracles.
