Those Moderate Muslims!

"Now, I really don't care whether or not Muslims celebrate birthdays and sing the song. I would merely point out that the above way of thinking makes it a lot more difficult for Muslims to get used to/fit into non-Muslim lands."

Exactely....that is the idea/intent. This crowd has no intention of assimilating or "fitting in."

It's not like Scotsmen once a year wearing kilts, thorwqing logs and eating hagis....

Dernnis Prager commented about a fella from Georgia (Caucasus)...who commented that at a business he visited every race and creed was present....they all spoke "american", had the same body language and dressed more or less "american" but each and everyone retained their ethnecity.

These camel jockeys have no such intent.

It's the word 'happy' that doesn't fit too well with all these smilin' Imamms.

I have this theory that the reason our passport office told us to stop smiling for our passport photos was so we wouldn't stand out from the Talibanners.

Make it harder for the CBSA to do any 'racial profiling'.

Yes, you're only allowed to sing, "Happy birthday to Mo! Happy birthday to Mo! Happy birthday dear Mo! Happy birthday to Mo!"

Tangentially related:
Nonie Darwish has a piece up (FrontPageMagazine?) wherein she explains that Egyptian muslims in the US are more radical those those in most muslim countries. A higher percentage of them voted (yes, they could vote in the Egyptian elections at US consulates) for the islamist-sharia candidate than did the locals.

That's the result of all the Saudi funding of US hyper-radicalizing mosques! Same deal in Canada.

Darwish is deeply worried that as they achieve higher pop. numbers the pressure for sharia law will be very strong.

I wonder if there is a contest (unbeknownst to the rest of the world) in Islamic circles to say and do the craziest things.

This example is pretty wacky, though the tomato thing is quite a topper.

-he's had some rather harsh things to say about the Western custom of celebrating birthdays-

That's because, unlike Christianity's 'Prophet', these goat groapers have no idea when their 'prophet' was born or who his mommy or daddy was.

"Allah did not create man so that he could have fun. The aim of creation was for mankind to be put to the test through hardship and prayer. An Islamic regime must be serious in every field. There are no jokes in Islam. There is no humor in Islam. There is no fun in Islam. There can be no fun and joy in whatever is serious."
-- Ayatollah Khomeini

Islam: the religion of killjoys, wet ends, buzz kills, and party poopers.

Well isn't that quaint, I'd love to see the TDSB unelected and replaced with stay at home moms who home school their kids.

You say it's your birthday? Die, infidel!
