Somalia: 12 killed in jihad against movies (more islamic insanity)
HEAVY fighting apparently sparked by an Islamic militia's moves to close cinemas and video stores in the lawless Somali capital has killed at least 12 people and wounded more than 21.
Must have been that crowd they filmed in those Blockbuster commercials.
Clashes between gunmen loyal to Mogadishu's Islamic courts and local militia defending the densely populated Yaqshid district began yesterday and flared again today.
I understand the gunfire began when gunmen loyal to Mogadishu's Islamic courts began shooting themselves in the head after being forced to watch "Gigili" twice in a row.
"The Islamic courts' militia are trying to close all entertainment centres of the district," one local resident Ahmed Dhuhulow said.
Let's see...isla-la-lamic logic allows the killing of random people to ensure people can't watch "Shrek"?
Three people died yesterday and another nine today in clashes that caused inhabitants to flee the area and shops to close, witnesses said.
Criminally insane = Islamic courts'
Heavy firing could be heard from all over Mogadishu, home to one million of Somalia's 10 million people and scene of frequent street battles during 14 years of anarchy.
Coming to a theater near you soon...Paris, Lyon, Rotterdam and Berlin.
"We have not opened the schools this morning, because of the shooting and heavy bullets which are falling down," said school teacher Abdullahi Hassan.
And we have Saudia Arabia to thank for this. I say 1 tactical nuke at every wahhabi hell-hole that fosters and supports this insanity around the world.
At least two civilians hit by stray bullets, as well as militiamen, were among the 12 dead, witnesses said. The wounded included a child hit by a bullet in the chest.
insanity.
Leaders of Mogadishu's influential Islamic courts oppose Western and Indian films which they say promote immorality in the mainly Muslim nation.
Message to the crimminally insane leaders of Mogadishu's influential Islamic courts: Where does it say in the Qoran that the random, senseless slaughter of innocent muslims is justified in order to enforce islamic rule? Is a "Shrek" DVD worth a human life? Where is the moral outrage in the Arab street?
