It’s mufti time

A bunch of Iraq-based peaceniks remain in the care of insurgent goons. Time to deploy Australia’s master kidnap negotiator, who, as Islam Onlinereports, single-handedly saved Douglas Wood:

Last June, Sheikh Taj Aldin Al-Hilali, Grand Mufti of Australia, succeeded in securing the release of Douglas Wood, an Australian contractor taken hostage in Iraq.

Possibly a little credit for that should go to these guys.

1. Call me crazy, but I think it’s all a set up, or it will be once the goons discover the “Christians” are on their side.

   Yes, I hope the Holy Whatevers don’t separate the “Christians” from their heads, but I think it’s all a set up.

1. PEACE ACTIVISTS!!!? These ISLAMOBUTTKISSERS posing as CHRISTAINS have no compunction at putting brave Iraquis and Coaltion forces at risk in attempting their rescue. Afterward theyll praise their captors and spit on their saviors. These so-called Christains hate war, as long as its against those they side with. Hate war? Here is the matter in perspective:
   War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.

   John Stuart Mill (1806 – 1873)

   And consider these riging phrases:
   The war is actually begun! The next gale that sweeps from the north will bring to our ears the clash of resounding arms! Our brethren are already in the field! Why stand we here idle? What is it that gentlemen wish? What would they have? Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death! So sayeth Patrick Henry on March 23, 1775

   Now consider the 60s ringing slogan of the British and American Left first enunciated by Bertrand Russell : BETTER RED THAN DEAD.

   ThesE so-called Cristains have brought it up to date: BETTER MOHAMMED THAN BEHEADEAD.

1. “Christains”—heh, good name. They are another set of stains on Christianity.

1. I want to be sympathetic to the plight of these people.  I want to be.  But they went over there to give aid and comfort to the enemy, and they refused a security detail.  So I’m not.

1. This Sheikh Hilaly fantasy of theirs is perfectly consistent with all their other sad delusions!

1. Could these Christains perhaps also be Cretans?

   A frightening thought….

1. I could not bring myself to call these sorry hypocrites “Christians” so I dubbed the with recognizable and suggestible misspellings (sp?) “Christains”, “Cristain”, but #6, “Cretans” is good.

1. “Bismillah no!  We will not them go!”

   Yo Frankie, is that you?  Perhaps we SHOULD send the Mufti.  Also the Fluffti and the Cottontail.
