Islamists take the gas pipe over Lil Kim...
Muslims have been outraged by the cover photo of the popular U.S. urban culture magazine One World, which features female rapper Lil Kim wearing the head covering of a burqa and a revealing lingerie set.
Oh, horrors! Quick, Ethel! My pills!
Rap music mogul, Russell Simmons proudly places his name on the front cover each issue of his urban culture magazine One World, explicitly endorsing the content that appears both on the cover of each magazine as well as that contained therein.
So he's for it, too...
For those sensitive to issues of female modesty, viewing the cover photo at the publicationâs website is probably not advisable. It features female rap artist Lil Kim posed seductively. Her head, with the exception of her eyes, is draped with the top portion of what can only be described as a burqa. Unfortunately, Lil Kimâs burqa does not obscure her body in the least. The rest of the garment is tossed over her left shoulder, leaving her body fully exposed with the exception of a skimpy lingerie set.
"Don't look, Mahmoud! There's titties in that thing!"
Whatever Simmons and the One World staff intended with this photo is irrelevant, because for Muslims, both the 7 million in the United States and the 1.2 billion spread across the rest of the world, it is a clear and unambiguous jab at the religion of Islam.
Hmmm... Yasss... The joyless masses of Islam have been mooned...
