Karma?
"Saudi Arabia offers Germany 200 mosques – one for every 100 refugees who arrived last weekend"
You stole my thought!!!!!! Lmao!
Hot Damn!!
Good God, people! Where does this unbridled hate and total lack of compassion for your fellow man come from? Those innocent Muslims who died in this accident and their families deserve compassion and love, not this narrow minded hate and total lack of respect for humanity. Our country was FOUNDED upon religious tolerance. The religion of Islam is a good and decent one. The Islamist extremists who spew hate are NOT ONE BIT DIFFERENT from those of you who make these vitriolic UNINFORMED ugly ugly remarks. And no, I am in no way related to, affiliated with or otherwise connected to a Muslim. I am a white Christian woman who wishes people would educate themselves about other cultures and religions.
I don't wish harm on anyone , except these SOB's.
Great spot for a nuke...
Praise be to Alla
I'm almost saddened by this. Almost...
Thank you to the thoughtful lady at 3:13 for making my day. Truer words have never been spoken.
The tragedy is that millions of Muslims walked away.
3;13, in case you hadn't noticed, this is the gathering of the people who want to behead you if you do not believe in their "Allah" god.
Of course, if you approve of your own beheading, you are perfectly free in our country to do so.
Freedom is what wer're all about, right?
"The Islamist extremists who spew hate are NOT ONE BIT DIFFERENT from those of you who make these vitriolic UNINFORMED ugly ugly remarks."
I suggest that you carry yourself to the Middle East and make your pompous remarks to a crowd there. You'll soon see the difference. Instead of the gentle ridicule that you receive here, you'll be sent home with your head in a shoe box.
9/11 - karma's a bitch.
3:13. You need to educate yourself about Islam. As a woman you would be a second class citizen in the Middle East. They are oppressors of women. Women have very few rights. Do yourself a favor and do a simple google search about Mohammed ....you will be disgusted.
Good praise Jesus.
Perfect spot for a NUKE.
The name of the constructions company.......The Binladen Group. Founded by Osama Bin Laden's father.
I hope they take the crane to the crane hospital soon!
Now 103 terrorists dead
3:13 Sorry but you can't learn these shorebillies anything. Hatred is inbred into them.
