Kibbutz Criminals

Saying that women support Islam is tantamount to calling cows the cheerleaders of McDonald franchises.

Mr. Tahmed Sahib,
Your point about Muslims needing education was quite idealistic. Of course they need education, just like they need oxygen, clean water, and decent toilets. In Saudi Arabia they have all that - except water of any type, clean, distilled, or of the fire variety. Don`t forget that almost all of the umpteen 9/11 hijackers were educated and some even had post-graduate degrees, notably Mr. Attaboy who was specializing, of all things, in ``town planning.`` In fact, many of those cowering in the caves near Kohat are also quite educated - with their PCs, satellite phones, and PDAs. What Muslims need more of is tolerance. Tolerance of each other and tolerance of things, people, and customs that may not be in line with Koranic specifications. No amount of lipstick is going to make this sow a beauty contestant. :)

#95, Farzana Versey, {``Chauhan may not even be his name; he is Pakistani (which when a Hindu says is okay, it has got to be okay)``}

Farzana,
Please give the poor man a break. At least you acknowledged that he is associated with Pakistan. Several Pakistanis have denied him that little recognition - not that being Pakistani is anything to write home about. Curiously, several Pakistanis would even deny him his Turkish blood - as if they perceive that to be a notch above being Pakistani. Now, even you have doubt about his being a Rajput. On a positive note, most Pakistanis on Chowk are glad to bestow upon him a Bihari attribute - as if, in some way, that degrades him to a level that even they feel comfortable about. So, if we defer to Pakistani Chowk opinion, Salim is neither Turkish, nor Persian, and neither Pakistani, nor Rajput, but a ``lowly`` Bihari Qadiani. No, he is not even Muslim. It`s a good thing that Salim has no problem with being identified with the persecuted and the down-trodden. If he really wanted to establish superiority, he would have claimed direct descent from the Holy Prophet (PBUH) and be lost in the 87% of Pakistanis related to the Hashimi clan of the Quraish tribe from the Hijaz. Seriously, Farzana, do you really think that any amount of P&P, repackaging, or ``under new management`` signs can help these people?

Those who copy our flag now have the nerve to judge us. There is much more to nationhood than merely copying the flag of another nation. You must also copy their qualities.
