The Religion of Peace?

Bombing in Iraq Kills Mostly Children. How many Muslims, other than the families of those killed, are condemning this act of absolute barbarism. Gee, it is the US fault that a soldier created an opportunity for the murderer by gathering children around him. Actually, the muslim world excuses murder of innocents in these cases. If you be in jihad, then you seem to be able to murder children at will. No remorse needed.


Case in point Iraqi PM Ibrahim Al-Ja'fari: "The Iraqi People Pay the Toll in Blood On Behalf of All Nations Facing Terrorism" from MEMRI. "You are aware of what goes on in Iraq concerning the struggle of the Iraqi people…and the enemy of the Iraqi people with all his misdeeds, evils and savagery. Regrettably, many of the satellite television channels ignore and do not display the tragedies that occur in Iraq, such as the rape and murder of women and the violation of the sanctity of women, as though these things did not happen…

"There are crimes committed in Iraq that are not labeled as terrorism [such as] the murder of policemen and heroic Iraqi soldiers…The pure and honest Iraqi woman is killed and this is not called terrorism; the innocent Iraqi child is murdered and the Arabic media does not call it terrorism. The Arabic media remains hostile and not objective. I address my admonition to the satellite TV channels to rise to the level of their responsibilities by showing the facts and calling a spade a spade."

At least the Iraqi PM is outraged. How about the Muslim news media, mullahs etc? Any statements of outrage from any muslim community outside Iraq? Not much.

I am quite sure that a large number of Muslims are nice, peaceful, decent people. I am quite amazed that some slime can cry "jihad" get a couple of idiots to issue fatwa and this obscenity is done without outrage.
