Has Everyone Gone Nuts?

And I Quote: Mohammed Ijaz ul-Haq

I can see this becomming a regular part of this blog, I mean afterall there are so very many stupid sayings out there that one is bound to come across one so bizzarre, so stupid that one is left scratching his head and wondering "What? What was that? Did I hear right?" So, our first forey into the world of And I Quote is from Mohammed Ijaz ul-Haq, Pakastani Minister of Religious Affairs.

The West is accusing Muslims of extremism and terrorism. If someone exploded a bomb on his body, he would be right to do so unless the British government apologizes and withdraws the ’sir’ title."

You read that correctly! Wow, of all the ignorant bits of drivel to come out of the mouths of Islamist idiots, this one has to take the cake. And this guy is a government official? Will someone go ask John "I actually voted for the war before I voted against it" Kerry for his award back so we can give it to this guy?

1 You want to publicize utterly stupid statements? Quote one verse from the Koran each day, although I have to warn you -- it won't be as interesting as a horoscope.

2 Hey GM & Woody (and anyone else)! I have changed my blog around a little bit and now the comments are different. You will need to re-register at my blog as the old comment system (HaloScan) is now discontinued and the new system (Wordpress) is going. Sorry about the inconvenience, but now commenting should be a little better i.e. no pop-up comment thing any more.

3 I suppose that before the War in Iraq jihadists didn't strap on bombs. **snerk**

Better watch out. Muslims will monopolize this award.

4 BTW that award is awesome. Keep 'em coming!

5 Yep, that had to be about the dumbest thing all week. The Muzzies just seem to keep saying these kinds of stupid things.

But, they are the religion of pieces

7 Yes, stupid. But chilling as well. "We are so upset by insults, under which we include true but uncomplimentary statements, that our extremist acts should really be quite understandable."

8 Perhaps you should have continued your research before posting the comment. His quote was translated incorrectly in the press and has since then been clarified. What he said was that it is things such as the knighting of Salman Rushdie which terrorists use to justify their behavior and the UK government should have been more sensitive to the international situation before making their decision.

9 Pak, the Misunderstood/mistranslated dodge just won't fly. If he said what you said he said, he is just as stupid, why on earth would the Queen care what Moslim world thinks, she was Knighting Sir Salmon because of his vast body of literature. The Muslims need to get over their infantile tendency to be offended at every drop of the hat. It's like a two year old "Mommie, Johnny stuck his tongue out at me," but with more serious consequences. Besides, maybe his "clarification" was just weasle words because he created a stupid remark and realized it. I'll just consider it a non apology apology.

10 First of all, the Queen should care. The UK has a large Muslim population and is one of Pakistan's main allies in the war against terror. Please take a look at this article regarding the amount of aid the UK government is providing to Pakistan, and the combined efforts at combating terrorism and extremism. Therefore, the act of knighting the author worsens the situation despite efforts within Pakistan and the UK to create greater interfaith harmony and peace. The link to the article is as follows: http://www.ft.com/cms/s/e0fdab72-77ef-11db-be09-0000779e2340.html

Everyone remembers the riots that broke out across the Muslim world when the novel was first released and therefore awarding the title when the situation is already tense was not a very smart thing to do. The outrage against the blasphemous cartoons has just died down and the UK's actions are only provoking additional animosity.

Your comment about Muslims having an infantile mentality and how they should just get over it is absolutely ridiculous. The rioters are poor, illiterate and there is obviously a deeper cause behind their behavior.

Ps. It's Salman not Salmon.

Posted by: Pak at Wednesday, June 27 2007 05:11 PM (Ll1cM)

11 Salman was knighted because of a lifetime of work, despite a MUSLIM death threat on his life for writing a book

103 die because of some cartoons, whilst a man creates Piss Christ and NO ONE dies.

Islam is not at threat from free speech, free speech and free thought are at threat from Muslim extremism.

Get this and get this straight...we will not curtail our freedom of speech and expression under threat of violence if Muslims get "offended":..it would be better if Muslims dragged themselves into the 21st century and woke up to themselves.

And you can start with that 3rd century, witchburning theocracy called IRAN.

Pak, it really does not matter what he said the fact is that if people use such issues as an excuse to kill there is something wrong with them. Muslims will not allow Churches or synagogues to be built in Saudi Arabia (or most other Muslims countries) but we allow them to build Mosques here. Every time some terrorist Muslim (but I repeat myself) cuts off a guy's head we don't riot in the streets.

The fact is the Muslims are not sensitive to nor do they care about any other group's feelings so why the hell should they expect the same in return. There is no right in this world to not be offended and if the Muslims would stop following the word of a child molesting murderous prophet named Mohammad they might actually move up a few hundred years and live in peace among the human part of society.

I suppose I upset you now. Will you put on a bomb vest and attack? Just do us a favor and test fire it first (out by yourself).

13 Pak, those "illiterate" people rioting are wrong. Their ignorance does not excuse them. Their actions are not those of civilized people.

To clarify that, yes, I am saying that these people that riot over cartoons and lies about korans in toilets and books that are fiction are not civilized.

Most of the muslim world seems to live in a backwards society, almost completely incapable of getting along with the modern world, and all the teeth gnashing and threats and attacks are not going to shut us up.

These people have two choices in the end....evolve or die. They can decide for themselves....come into the modern world and learn tolerance or continue on their path and eventually the civilized world will get tired of it and put them in a hole along with their backwards ideas.

Is that clear enough Pak?

The Queen knights whom she pleases. Muslims are not required to approve of her decisions.

As for being "sensitive," somebody needs to point out to those enamored of sawing off people's heads and of slaughtering those not in their particular tribes that the "international situation" doesn't approve.
