Token Christian Pakistani Parliment Member Murdered

Or in the words of "moderate" Muslims, problem solved.

Since shortly after the attacks on this country on 9/11, I have lumped the followers of Islam into nothing more then a blood thirsty cult more akin to those peaceful cultures like Incas and Aztecs, and they never fail to deliver on that image.

Assailants purportedly sent by al-Qaida and the Taliban killed the only Christian member of Pakistan's federal Cabinet Wednesday, spraying his car with bullets outside his mother's home. It was the second assassination in two months of a high-profile opponent of blasphemy laws that impose the death penalty for insulting Islam.

There is no part of it that is civilized or belongs in the modern world. In fact they reject the modern world violently. There are only three rules for those who join the cult.

1) Join and volunteer to die as a suicide bomber
2) Join and die because you belong to the wrong version of Islam
3) Leave and die as a unbeliever

Islam brings nothing nothing but death and despair to all it touches. While they may lay the blame for the killing at the feet of Al Queda, in truth they were just acting as the enforcement arm of all those "moderate" Muslims who support them.

As far as all these demonstrations in Middle East, I am not very hopeful that anything good will come out of them long term because quite simply democracy as we know it and Islam are completely incompatible. The 9th century cave dwellers only believe in the rule of the jungle. The guy with the most guns wins and gets to rule the others until somebody else with more guns shows up. Human life has no meaning to them, with women used as nothing more then breeding factories for their armies and with the most fanatical amongst them rising to positions of power, holding the reins of life and death over the others. Instead of lining victims up outside of some pyramid and laying them on an altar to cut their still beating heart out of their chest they prefer to strap explosives to their bodies and carry out the sacrifices en-masse.

The killing of Shahbaz Bhatti, a 42-year-old Roman Catholic, further undermines Pakistan's shaky image as a moderate Islamic state and could deepen the political turmoil in this nuclear-armed, U.S.-allied state where militants frequently stage suicide attacks.

Don't forget, it is Muslim pirates which recently murdered 4 Americans they captured as well now seizing another boat and threatening to kill those aboard, including the children of the infidels.

The definition of a "moderate" Muslim is one which provides arms, money or sanctuary to armed terrorists, about like the differences between a moderate heart attack that doesn't kill you and a massive one which does.

A Hero Returns Home

Remains of diplomat killed in Pakistan return to Prague


The Czech military plane with the remains of Ivo Zdarek, the Czech ambassador to Pakistan who died in the terrorist bomb attack on the Marriott hotel in Islamabad on Saturday, landed at Prague's Ruzyne airport Monday evening, awaited by Zdarek relatives and also President Vaclav Klaus and PM Mirek Topolanek.

Zdarek is one of more than 50 victims of the attack.

His coffin was taken aboard the military Airbus, which originally flew to Afghanistan with a consignment for Czech troops operating in the country, in the early afternoon CEST Monday, at the Pakistani air base Chaklala.

"We are awfully sorry, we highly esteemed Mr Ambassador," Klaus said briefly after the end of the ceremony at the airport.

Klaus said it could be seen that ambassadors were really in "the first line" of the defence of Czech interests in the world.

"It is appearing that the first line may be very dangerous," Klaus said.

The coffin, covered by the Czech flag, was taken out of the army aircraft while a mourning march was played. Czech national anthem followed and then the coffin with Zdarek's body was placed in a hearse.

Condolences were also voiced by Prime Minister Mirek Topolanek. He said in the afternoon Zdarek's death had been a tragic event, a challenge for the Czech Republic to seek peaceful solution to conflicts and to be on the side of struggle against terrorism.

Before, the Pakistani government offered to the Czech Republic that it would provide its plane if the Czechs had no means at hand to transport Zdarek's remains home.

Zdarek, who took up the post of the ambassador to Islamabad recently, survived the explosion in front of the Marriott hotel, but probably died in the following fire when he was helping other endangered people.

It is known that he was alive for at least 10 minutes following the blast. Ambassador Zdarek could have fled for his life but didn't, choosing instead to remain at the scene to help other victims

The hotel was his temporary residence until the safety measures at the local seat of the Czech diplomatic mission were completed.

Zdarek is the second Czech to have fallen prey as a civilian to a terrorist attack abroad.

The first was Petr Koran, 24, who died in a bomb attack in the Egyptian seaside resort Sharm El Sheikh in July 2005.
