Lunacy In The Name Of Allah

First thing I read when I got up this morning was this:

Nigerian Muslims protesting caricatures of the Prophet Muhammad attacked Christians and burned churches on Saturday, killing at least 15 people in the deadliest confrontation yet in the whirlwind of Muslim anger over the drawings.

It was the first major protest to erupt over the issue in Africa's most populous nation. An Associated Press reporter saw mobs of Muslim protesters swarm through the city center with machetes, sticks and iron rods. One group threw a tire around a man, poured gas on him and set him ablaze.

Further down in the story, you'll see that among the dead are 3 children. You will also see various and sundry "leaders" demanding apologies to the savages who approve of, and indeed encourage, this kind of behavior. Tell me, what do the people in Nigeria have to do with Danish cartoons? These people of the "religion of peace" were just looking for an excuse to riot and kill...and we still have various "leaders" kissing their butts and apologizing for breathing.

Heck, look at this:

In Libya, the parliament suspended the interior minister after at least 11 people died when his security forces attacked rioters who torched the Italian consulate in Benghazi.

What was he supposed to do, pop popcorn and just watch the fun? I think they should firebomb the rioters. Send them to their virgins. Maybe then they'd think twice about beating children to death in the name of Allah.
