This is funny!. (smile)

"In a recent comedy skit on Palestine's Al-Falastiniya TV station, three men dressed as Islamic State soldiers lean against their jeep in the countryside and tell a passing car to pull over. After reminiscing with the Lebanese driver about their time in Beirut listening to pop music and hanging out with local girls, they shoot the driver dead for misremembering how many times to bow when entering a mosque.

In Lebanon, the popular, satiric Ktir Salbe Show recently released a sketch where a taxi driver picks up a jihadi and offers to turn off the air conditioning because it wasn't available in the early days of Islam. The jihadi declines and then takes a call on a cell phone, prompting the driver to kick him out and tell him to wait for a camel ride instead…"

Truth be told, most right minded people Muslim or not do not like their fundamental crap. Nice to see them trying to make sense out of the nonsensical. But all in all Islam needs a paradigm shift or it will be the outcome what we all know will happen.
By the way heads up and kudos to the guys trying this humor it can be dangerous out there.

If you think we're at war with Islam in general, then you're part of the problem.

The part about them shooting their driver for misremembering how many times to bow when entering a mosque has an element of truth about it. ISIS commander Abu Waheeb was seen on video interrogating 3 truck drivers who claimed to be Sunni. He was asking them how many times they should bow at prayer times, and when they didn't give satisfactory answers he concluded that they were Shia and he and his men shot them.

tuscaloosa, please introduce me to the part of Islam that isn't at war with me. I haven't met it yet.

I note that when the ISIS guy says girls on one street were "old-fashioned" he said it in English.

"please introduce me to the part of Islam that isn't at war with me. I haven't met it yet."

Then you know nothing about Islam, and would be better off not making public judgements.

"St Thomas More"? What an interesting flub.

Islam is a Judeo-Christian religion. All three of them were started by members of the same extended family, just centuries apart. But they all partake of the same holier than thou paradigm. The saving grace is that the bulk of their membership don't take their religion seriously like fundamentalists do. I have hope that Muslims everywhere see their fundamentalists in the same light that the bulk of Christians and Jews see their fundamentalists….
