U.S. ambassador J. Christopher Stevens died from suffocation during the Benghazi attack on the 11th anniversary of 9/11 by armed Islamic militants.
Playing with fire is dangerous…especially when it involves Old Glory; and what goes around…:
A Pakistani protestor has died after inhaling smoke from burning U.S. flags during a rally against the anti-Islam film Innocence of Muslims.
Abdullah Ismail died in Mayo hospital in Lahore having complained of feeling unwell during the angry demonstrations in the eastern Pakistan city yesterday.
Around 10,000 people are estimated to have taken part in the protest organised by the group Tehreek Hurmat-i-Rasool.
It’s unfortunate that Abdullah Ismail died over this. But then, all the deaths that are a result of those in Perpetual Outrage is unfortunate. Ismail could have been simply anyone on scene, for all I know. Hafiz Muhammad Saeed, on the other hand, deserves the wrath of karma:
A number of religious leaders addressed the rally including Hafiz Muhammad Saeed, head of the Jamatud Dawa organisation – one of the largest and most active militant Islamist groups in South Asia.
He claimed the film had been produced with the backing of the U.S. establishment.
He said director Nakoula Basseley Nakoula and others involved in its production and release must be hanged.
According to the Express Tribune he told protestors: ‘The U.S. must make a law against blasphemy – or we will not let the U.S. consulates in Pakistan function.’
He also dismissed the value of the resolution made on September 13 by parliament which condemning the movie. He said the country’s president Asif Ali Zardari must announce jihad against countries such as the U.S. who ‘support attacks on Islam’.
More protests in Pakistan, and more mayhem and death:
Several hundred demonstrators in the northwestern part of the country clashed with police after setting fire to a press club and a government building.
The protesters apparently attacked the press club in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province’s Upper Dir district because they were angry their rally wasn’t getting more coverage, according to the police.
I the town of Wari officers charged a crowd, beating protesters back with batons, police official Mukhtar Ahmed said.
The demonstrators then attacked an office belonging to a senior government official and surrounded a local police station, where officers locked themselves in.
Another protester died when police and demonstrators exchanged fire in the city, and several others were wounded, police spokesman Akhtar Hayat said.
In the southern city of Karachi Hundreds battled police for a second day as they tried to reach the U.S. Consulate.
Police lobbed tear gas and fired in the air to disperse the protesters from the student wing of the Jamaat-e-Islami party.
Police arrested 40 students, but no injuries were reported.
Pakistanis have also held many peaceful protests against the film, including one in the southwest town of Chaman, attended by around 3,000 students and teachers.
The chief justice of Pakistan’s Supreme Court ordered the government’s telecommunications authority to block access to the film.
Government officials have said they are trying to block the video, as well as other content considered blasphemous, but it is still viewable on YouTube today.
Attempts at censoring the video only feeds into the wild conspiracy theories and imaginings that abound in the Middle East. I wonder how many of the protestors have actually watched the entire thing for themselves? At most, it’s sooo badly done, it’s worth throwing a shoe at the computer monitor; or spitting up coffee all over the keyboard. But rioting and calling for death?
God is not on their side.
Meanwhile, the unrest that the video sparked in Egypt and the attack in Benghazi, and the protests among Islamists isn’t just about Islam. It’s about anti-Americanism in general, as demonstrated by the reaction of some in China (note also the photo’s misuse traced back to a French news blog).

I mean this with all the benevolence I can muster….
Shouldn’t they create something in the Middle East on the same order as a Great Adventures or Disney Land [it’s a small world] for these people so they can go on a really high roller coaster then scream all the way down and get it all out of their system that way….? I think these people really really need to have some fun. They are wayyyy too serious and, apparently, life is too short….
Say a Prayer for the World – she needs it right now…
@FAITH7:
Iran’s Grand Ayatollah Khomenie once famously said, “There is no FUN in Islam.”
Seriously.
These people are incredibly repressed when it comes to both anger and fun as well as when it comes to sex.
Incredibly Islam teaches a fatalistic view of untimely death.
It is always ”the will of allah.”
Remember the Christmas Day tsunami?
Remember how the WEST gave generously while oil-rich Muslim states had to be shamed into even promising to give at all?
As far as they were concerned it simply was the will of allah.
Remember this when Muslims tell you how much they give to charity.
It all is only for fellow Muslims.
None of it is for Muslims who fall upon hard times or disasters.
1/7th of it is set aside for aiding the jihadis.
In a few places, like Saudi Arabia, a widow who has no male relatives to take her out or send her food will slowly starve to death in her home.
Only a couple years back one man, a non-Saudi Muslim, took his elderly next-door neighbor Saudi widow woman to the emergency room only to be convicted of being alone with a woman not his wife or family and getting 200 lashes.
Nan G, is that the Islamic version of “There’s no crying in baseball!”?
Faith7… or another way of putting it… *Lighten up, fer Allah’s sake!*
@Nan G: Only a couple years back one man, a non-Saudi Muslim, took his elderly next-door neighbor Saudi widow woman to the emergency room only to be convicted of being alone with a woman not his wife or family and getting 200 lashes.
Can these people really lay claim to living in the 21st Century?
I LIKE TO LOOK AT NATIONAL GEOGRAPHY, AND THE LAST TIME i WAS WATCHING THE HYENAS IN GROUPS YELLING HIGH PITCH VOICE AT A LONE OLD LION EATING HIS MEAL, THE PACK KEPT YELLING AND TORMENT HIM FROM THE BACK, BITING AND RUNNING AWAY BACK AGAIN RE-ENFORCE WITH NEW HYENAS JOINING WHICH THEY FINALLY GOT THE LION TO RUN AWAY, BUT THEY DISDAIN THE CARCASE TO RUN AFTER THE LION UNTIL THEY WHERE CLOSE AND START BITING TORMENTING UNTIL THE LION STAINED WITH BLOOD FROM HIS WOUNDS COLLAPSE, THE PACK TORE HIM APART ALIVE, THEY WHERE A MOB ON HIM OUT TO KILL FOR THEIR HATE INGROWN IN THEM SINCE THE BEGINNING OF THE CREATION, AND I LEARNED THAT LIONS HATE THE HYENAS BECAUSE THOSE KILL THEIR BABY LIONS, ONLY 2 SURVIVE OUT OF 6, SO THE LIONS GET AFTER THEM TO KILL THEM, BUT THEY DON’T TEAR THE HYENAS THEY CHOKE THEM TO DEATH AND LEAVE, I GUESS THERE WAS A LONG TIME AGO THE SAME SPECIES OF HUMANS BORN
WITH HATE, CONSTANTLY TORMENTING OTHER PEACEFUL HUMANS WHICH HAD TO DEFEND THEIR YOUNG AND KILL THE TORMENTERS,
UNHAPPYLY SOME SURVIVED AND BECAME A MOB WHEN THE BLACK MOON IS FULL AND
ARE ANIMATED WITH DEATH WISH,
@FAITH7: This begs the question: Why oh why does Islam so ardently embrace polygamy?
– Maybe the question could be better answered by census statistics from Islamic countries comparing morbidity rates between males and females. If anyone has current times data or info on where to view, please advise location?
– Empirically it is apparent that the male gender is significantly shorter lived than females given the propensity for male on male violence observed over the past 50 years of oft times continual conflict as noted in 4 Arab-Israeli conflicts, Iraq~Iran 8+ year war, Iraq~Kuwait conquest, 1st Gulf War, Genocide of the Kurds by Saddam Hussein, Philippines, Sudan, Mali, Darfur, and too many more to even list (would be an interesting project though) .
– Given the continual leakage of male genes to the continual slaughter, polygamy is the only means remaining to replace the continuous losses.
– In a Darwinian context, the survival of the strongest is evident since by definition, only the lesser males are projected into the fray. Example: OBL talked the talk carrying an AK-47, but was gunned down in the presence of only females. The so-called Islamic leader is quite effective in ensuring that he leads from the rear, thus ensuring the availability of his genes to propagate the Muslim race/religion.
Faith, I suspect that ‘some’ Muslims are having “fun”.
“There is no fun in Islam” Seems they’d blend well with the Evangelicals
Heck–only 3 thumbs down. How bout with the Mormons?
Go Irish
God is great. Allah just happens to blow big time.
@Marine72:
One thing you forgot.
“Honor killings.”
Here are the latest numbers from Gaza strip:
0-14 years: 43.9% (male 374,110/female 354,088)
15-64 years: 53.5% (male 453,253/female 432,855)
65 years and over: 2.6% (male 17,326/female 25,523) (2011 est.)
Until they get to past 65 females are outnumbered by males by quite a bit.
The same pattern is pretty common.
Here is Egypt:
0-14 years: 32.7% (male 13,725,282/female 13,112,157)
15-64 years: 62.8% (male 26,187,921/female 25,353,947)
65 years and over: 4.5% (male 1,669,313/female 2,031,016) (2011 est.)
In Saudi Arabia females never catch up.
Killing one’s own girl children is both legal and common under some sets of Sharia laws.
0-14 years: 29.4% (male 3,939,377/female 3,754,020)
15-64 years: 67.6% (male 9,980,253/female 7,685,328)
65 years and over: 3% (male 404,269/female 368,456) (2011 est.)
@NanG – Thanks Nan – I keep reading and hearing about all these really terrible things in this culture ….really horrible stuff Nan…especially the poor widow(s) and the poor neighbor who tried to help the elderly widow omg! – I had no idea…wow – how Lucky we are to be Women in America….pray for those who aren’t…

@Marine72 #6 – Interesting stats – Census? I thought about that before Marine – Like Nan says “Incredibly Islam teaches a fatalistic view of untimely death” so, this tells me they don’t keep these kinds of records.
…. it does sounds like a lot of Muslims are ‘having fun’ literally at someone else’s expense… it turns out badly for the world especially because of the [potential young children born] and their radicalization and indoctrination into hatred…and radical Islam..
…Funny, and the Liberals/Progs in America don’t believe the “they” have been ‘indoctrinated’…
The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother’s keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

(AINA) — During the demonstration which was held in front of theAmerican Embassy in Cairo on Tuesday, 9/11, a Muslim cleric named Abu Islam tore and burned the Holy Bible in front of thousands of Muslims. His action was met with applause and anti-Christian cheers from the demonstrators. Before leaving the demonstration and getting into his car, he told the crowds, “next time I will urinate on it.”
http://www.aina.org/news/20120913204249.htm
Video included at link.
Why hasn’t this made the American press? We hear and see endless loops of Muslims rioting and burning American flags, and we hear that the only reason they are doing it is because someone insulted their “prophet”, but nothing about what actually happens in the Islamic nations, like burning a Holy Bible.
So, does this mean that American Christians can now riot in front of the Egyptian Embassy and burn the Koran? Can we stomp on, and burn, the Egyptian flag? Can we throw stones and fire bombs at mosques like the Islamists do at Christian churches all across the Middle East? Or is tolerance just a one way street and we have to cut these 7th century cretins slack because they are well, in the 7th century.
Maybe it is time for our press to start telling us the truth and we start waking up and accepting that September 11, 2001 was just the restart of a very old war and yes, we are at war with Islam. Nah, that would not be politically correct. We must be tolerant as they kill us. At least that is what this administration is telling us.
Standing on the higher ground does you no good if you throw your weapons in the river below. It just means your enemy has to climb up to kill you.
@Art: #3
Let’s not forget that a woman who is raped is stoned as a prostitute. Some even have to marry their rapist. I have often wondered if the women who convert to Islam know what they are getting into.
Will the flag burner get their 72 virgins?
Most if not all arab, muslim states are high welfare states. So most of the demonstrator have no real jobs. Similar to this country’s “flash mobs”, but they all get a few dollors for their efforts. When you have over 100,000 uemployed males sitting on there mohammad asses, a few dollors to demonstrate is cool. Just like the DNP paid the homeless in St Louis to show up for a big rally for the idiot in ‘o8. The homeless were paid $100 to show.

Forget the drones. We have a new secret weapon. Flags that release noxious fumes when ignited. What a concept!
