watching world cup = death?

[sammyg2]

MOGADISHU, Somalia (AP) -- Radical Islamic militia fighters in central Somalia shot and killed two people at the screening of a banned World Cup soccer broadcast while dispersing the crowd of teenagers watching it, an independent radio station reported Wednesday.

The Islamic fighters, who have banned such entertainment, opened fire after the teenagers defied their orders to leave the cinema that was screening the Germany-Italy match, Shabelle Radio reported. It said the dead were a girl and the cinema owner.


Evidently watching a soccer match is a sin in the mind of these nutcases.
It reminds me of the two men shot for selling ice cubes. The murdering muslims explained that mohammed didn't have ice, neither should anyone else and selling ice was a crime punishable by death.

The reason these Islamists were able to take over was the terrorism sponsored by the Bush'ists in Washington. Without US government sponsored terrorism they'd still be out in the jungle's looking for their next meal of monkey meat.

Didn't you here that they are out of virgins?

Wow, learn somethnig new every day. I had no idea that they have jungles and monkeys in the middle of the freaking desert!

Wow; no outrage from our resident leftist Islamic appologists. They will cry like babies over any action taken to make the world safe from men like these, and give them free reign. Just plain weird.

I don't see how a good muslim could have shot anybody with their logic....after all, the Mohammed guy didn't have guns, so how could they use them?

They probably drove there, Mohammed didn't have cars....what is wrong with camels (excusing the Brokeback sort of approach) after all?

...etc.etc...

I hate fanatics. People who won't change their minds and won't change the topic....

Ever think that, if the devil exists, he would start a religion, convincing the believers that he was actually God?

Chilling idea.

And there you have it...

We just need to learn to understand them and we'll realize they're not so different from us after all. Bush is such a cowboy, he just drops bombs and ask questions later. If Kerry were president, we'd all be holding hands and singing Kumbaya and dog**** would taste like strawberry ice cream.

Don't you remember that Catholics had the Crusades going like, 3 weeks ago? What's the difference? See, morality is all relative.

And society (and sometimes government) attempts to enforce the current concept of morality.

So, maybe Somalia needs to be invaded and offered democracy like Iraq...Oh but wait...do they have oil? Nevermind, they can keep shooting eachother over soccer. We need to secure Camden, NJ, first.

Isnt this the religion of peace? Why are they shooting people now? And even killing their own followers...

You people just don't get it.

The theater owner failed to make the proper gesture ($) to the local mullah in order to get his blessing for the showing of world cup soccer. In the muslim world it doesn't matter if you want to sell soccer, ice cubes or whiskey, you GOTTA grease the palm of the local mullah first.

Ideology generally takes a back seat to good old fashioned corruption.

So, there is definitely not much difference between Somalia and New Jersey. Except that here, our local mullah belong to the mob, and the theaters are casinos...
