Islamic Extortion Letter to Pope Benedict...UPDATED

Ben has started a new blog to specifically discuss the extortion letter. Go here.





I have posted A Common Word: Islamic Extortion Scheme! at Snooper's.

There's more than just the letter. There is an introduction and summary, plus King Abdullah bin Hussein's message. Links are in the post.

Abdullah and the Ulama are up to the usual tricks. Al-Taqeyya!!! Plenty of quotes, and more counter evidence than you want to see. Chapter & verse + Tafsir & Fiqh.
Botom line: an indirect way of saying "Embrace Islam and you will be safe." Of cuss, if you don't there's a war on.

They sent the Goddamn thing to the Pope and a slew of prelates. They claim common ground which does not exist; its quicksand.

It appears that their web site may be affiliated with altafsir; it seems to be Shi'ia oriented and they have a link to altafsir.


There is mention at the Guardian & NYT as well as BBC. It was also mentioned on Coast 2 Coast AM. Robert Spencer has posted an initial skeptical reaction. Mine is not so gentle.
