What a rare bird. Take a look at what this muslim blogger, Nancy Shehata, has to say to some of her fellow muslims:
“U.S. Ambassador to Libya J. Christopher Stevens and three of his staff were killed by RPG fire as they tried to leave their embassy. The crowd outside the embassy there, and another unruly mob outside the U.S. Embassy in Cairo, were puffed up into a froth by a video, a stupid, useless, anti-Islamic video that had been posted to youtube by fools. Fools directed by fools. Someone, some Muslim, some person or people claiming to follow the same religion as I do, fired a rocket into the car to kill a man who had absolutely nothing to do with the video and who would have himself soundly condemned it, had he had the chance…
“I am so god damned tired of this. Sorry, I just can’t find any literary way to put that. I am so god damned tired of Muslims allowing themselves to be manipulated by a god damned low-budget stupid YOUTUBE VIDEO. This low-rent video was put together by a few bigoted individuals who should have been ignored. Instead, they have found fame in infamy…
“Islam does not condone blasphemy against any prophet, be that Muhammad, Moses, or Jesus, peace be upon them all. As a Muslim, I condemn the people who made or supported this video and ask Allah to guide them or break their backs. But I have no plans to seek out these fools, or kill any Americans, or Israelis, or anyone else for that matter. See, I’m kinda busy. I’m kinda busy working to support my family…
“I don’t have a lot of time right now because I have a life. You young men (mostly men, though I’m sure there are some women, as well), go the hell home. Go to school, go to work, go to the masjid and pray. Pray for guidance. Pray for Allah to help you be productive in your life. Go read a book. Go learn your religion. Because if you believe that all your problems are the fault of the US or ‘the West’, then you’re a damn fool…” (link)
With the exception of the cruel and ignorant remark “I ask Allah to guide [blasphemers] or break their backs” this post is right on. It’s good to see that some muslims can be non-violent and have a good dose of common sense. It’s sad to see that even a muslim who is ten times more rational than the bulk of the Islamic world is still captivated with cruel delusions and wishes of violence towards others.
