The pope angered muslims by quoting a centuries old text that claims that Islam was "evil" and spread "by the sword". Is this response by a muslim group a good rebuttal?...
"The group said Muslims would be victorious and addressed the pope as "the worshipper of the cross" saying "you and the West are doomed as you can see from the defeat in Iraq, Afghanistan, Chechnya and elsewhere. ... We will break up the cross, spill the liquor and impose head tax, then the only thing acceptable is a conversion (to Islam) or (killed by) the sword."
What's the arabic word for "hypocrite"?

Those Muslims who aren't extremists are going to have to put the extremists in their place before the rest of the world is forced to kill all Muslims.
They believe in freedom of speech so long as it is their own murderous lies being spoken. They are upset at something the pope quoted, so they murdered a nun and burnt down churches?
There should not be a single Muslim synagog left standing in the western world.

Here are some excerpts of the article available in full at
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060918/ap_on_re_mi_ea/muslims_pope
Al-Qaida in Iraq warned Pope Benedict XVI on Monday that its war against Christianity and the West will go on until Islam takes over the world, and Iran's supreme leader called for more protests over the pontiff's remarks on Islam.
Al-Qaida in Iraq and its allies issued a statement addressing the pope as "a cross-worshipper" and warning, "You and the West are doomed, as you can see from the defeat in Iraq, Afghanistan, Chechnya and elsewhere.
"You infidels and despots, we will continue our jihad (holy war) and never stop until God avails us to chop your necks and raise the fluttering banner of monotheism, when God's rule is established governing all people and nations," said the statement by the Mujahedeen Shura Council, an umbrella organization of Sunni Arab extremist groups in Iraq.
Another Iraqi extremist group, Ansar al-Sunna, challenged "sleeping Muslims" to prove their manhood by doing something other than "issuing statements or holding demonstrations."
"If the stupid pig is prancing with his blasphemies in his house," the group said in a Web statement, referring to the pope, "then let him wait for the day coming soon when the armies of the religion of right knock on the walls of Rome."
Attackers hurled firebombs at seven churches in the West Bank and Gaza Strip over the weekend, and a nun was shot to death in Somalia.
THAT'S THEIR "RELIGION OF PEACE" FOR YOU, SAID IN THEIR OWN WORDS!

Praise to the Pope! It's about time the Pope angered someone, as he and the Vatican kept silent before and during World War II when Jews were being slaughtered. The U.S., England, France, Russia. and many other nations were aware of the atrocities being visited upon the Jews. They also did nothing to alleviate those atrocities.
You reap what you sow. Nations have, and are sowing, discord and distrust in the name of "religion". Crusaders (I believe we call them "politicians" now) have annihilated cities, states, and countries. The Apocalypse is nigh.

Muslims seem to act like little bullies in school. Do not be concerned. They will all find the 72 Virginians soon enough. The Pope proved that nothing has changed since the 14th century statement. Their actions and words describe them better than we ever could.

The Pope quoted the textual content cloth yet has mentioned that it did no longer symbolize his perspectives. The reason of the speech grew to become into to foster honest communique between human beings and that violence isn't the way God needs us to act. It grew to become into to no longer say that Islam and Mohamed are evil.

Jihad is as good a word for hypocrite as any. The Pope offered words, muslims flung bombs. Remember that 25 years ago one of the radical muslims shot Pope JPII and Christians didn't riot, burn mosques or shoot their women in their back.
Farhansl is an idiot. He says muslims don't convert by force. He is totally ignorant of history. Palastine, Syria and Egypt were all christian lands once who were forced by the sword to convert. Alot of them didn't and so were slaughtered for their faith. Islam is trying it again. Only this time it will be them who will be killed en masse.

From the Wiki. I am not Muslim I just looked it up.
.Munāfiq (n., in Arabic: منافق, plural munāfiqūn) .
The term munāfiq in Arabic and Urdu is primarily a non-religious term that refers to a person whose actions are different from and opposite to his thoughts, which he conceals.
In the Qur'an sense the term refers to a person who does not have faith, but pretends to. According to Sahīh Bukhārī, the Prophet said, "Whoever has the following four (characteristics) will be a pure hypocrite and whoever has one of the following four characteristics will have one characteristic of hypocrisy unless and until he gives it up. 1. Whenever he is entrusted, he betrays. 2. Whenever he speaks, he tells a lie. 3. Whenever he makes a covenant, he proves treacherous. 4. Whenever he quarrels, he behaves in a very imprudent, evil and insulting manner."

They throw protests over cartoons and a pope quoting a long dead guy, But where were the protests on 9/12? I believe the pope was onto something.

Im afraid the reaction by muslims (a minority it has to be said) has been quite bad with a well known muslim cleric calling for "Death to the pope" outside the houses of parliament. I am afraid it is all going to get out of hand and a whole lot of innocent people on all sides of the arguament are going to get hurt
