Muslims around the world can breathe a deep collective sigh of relief now that Afghanistan appears to be on the road to becoming an Islamic state that ALL Muslims can be proud of.
Last week saw the 'Kite Runner', a film based on the incredible book by Khalid Hosseini following the lives of 2 Afghan boys, banned in the country and today it was reported that a journalist would be put to death for blasphemy. Although according to Shamsur Rahman, the head of the court, the condemned man, Sayed Perwiz Kambakhsh, still has to go through three more courts to declare his eventual fate. Fellow journalists have been told not to make a fuss or they will be arrested.
The blasphemous act carried out by Kambakhsh was to download material from the internet relating to the role of women in Islamic society. He should count himself lucky he wasn't caught doing something really naughty like laughing.
Islam's bibliophobic traditions have been well documented ever since 641AD when Alexandria fell into the hands of Muslims. General Amr ibn al-As ordered all books in the library to be burned, one by one. "If they are in agreement with the Koran, they are superfluous. If they are not in agreement, they are dangerous', he drunkenly told Abdul, his 10 year old 'bed warmer'.

I would expect nothing else from these religious clerical types no matter what country they were in. Islam is a one way street, it screws ALL while no one is allowed to question it's murderous lack of morals. While the western politicians keep breaking our own monetary backs to prop up these so called muslim democracies we will continue to fund our own demise.
If the muslim oil producers insist on holding us in the west to fuel ransom why don't we just stop giving them aid of all kinds and stop sending them food. Let the oil rich arab states look after the Ummah then maybe we could sell our food to them at vastly inflated prices (in line with their inflated oil prices)to recoup our money and use their money to destroy radical Islam therefore doing to them exactly the same thing in exactly the same way to them. It makes alot of sense to me.
Bismillah ir-Rahman ir-Rahim.
u ignorant infidels -- if u read the koran very very carefully in depth, u would have discovered that the square root of the number of chapters X number of verses to the power of words divided by the number of characters equals to the first step of the equation needed for manufacturing the nuclear bomb.
the rest of the instructions could b found by reading the odd-numbered chapters of the koran backward (all in innuit), skipping 1 sentence each time, then read the even-numbered chapters of the koran forward (all in swedish), skipping 2 sentence each time, n repeat 300 times.
(innuit & swedish - bcos it was where Allah's favourite virgins were produced.)
that's what we at kabul r doing right now, n we r proud to report that we r 1/3 there to creating our very first taliban nuclear bomb.
just u wait, israel n the great satan... just u wait...
obviously, u can also derive all the other fields of divine knowledge from reading the koran some other ways. didnt u people learn it in schools??????
Allāhu Akbar الله أكبر!!!

Ah, the good old days back in 'the stan'.
I remember when my uncle had his wife put to sleep for looking at his Special K.
Me and my cousin Karim used to play for Kandahar City Rovers. There was a striker called Allah Sheera, who was immense. He got 80 lashes for holding his lucuzade with his left hand.
Good times!
Perhaps all the muslims should come from Afghanistan and come and live in Australia.
Look how well they treat this one!

To think soldiers from the West are keeping the Aghan government in power and losing their lives just so they can repeat exactly what the Taliban did - i.e. murder anyone who stepped out of line!
I strongly object to my tax money (here in the UK) being used to prop up a government that would even consider executing a man for downloading from a web site!!!
This is a f*cking disgrace and what is Gordon Brown saying? Sweet F*ck all!
