Gazan Muslims Show Their True Colors
Gazans warn pope to accept Islam
Citing the words of the Prophet Muhammad, Muslim religious leaders in the Gaza Strip on Sunday warned Pope Benedict XVI that he must "accept" Islam if he wanted to live in peace.
The warning, the first of its kind, came as many Christians in the West Bank expressed anger over a spate of attacks on churches in protest against remarks made by the pope about the Muslims and the Prophet Muhammad.
Two more churches in the West Bank were targeted on Sunday in protest against the pope's remarks, bringing to seven the number of churches that have been attacked over the past three days.
In Tulkarm, arsonists set fire to the only Orthodox church in the area, causing heavy damage to the 150-year-old structure.
[...]
"We want to use the words of the Prophet Muhammad and tell the pope: 'Aslim Taslam'" Aslim Taslam is a phrase that was taken from the letters sent by the Prophet Muhammad to the chiefs of tribes in his times in which he reportedly urged them to convert to Islam to spare their lives.
[...]
They also called on the pope to direct his words to the Jews who, they claimed, were "spreading corruption and destruction."

Of course, it's all the Jews' fault--why didn't we realize this sooner? (along with 9/11, locusts, Bubonic Plague, the '29 Crash, etc. etc. ad nauseum)
What's scary isn't that they're so ignorant that they burn non-Catholic churches in response to a Catholic's statement referring to a Byzantine emperor's statement--what's scary is that the Mad Dog Muslims of the world seem to be the screaming majority of Moslems and they can justify anything they do in their own minds.
Right on target!
