Title: Looks like Egypt is bringing back old customs
Post by: MechAg94 on August 18, 2012, 11:03:44 AM: http://www.wnd.com/2012/08/arab-spring-run-amok-brotherhood-starts-crucifixions/

The Arab Spring takeover of Egypt by the Muslim Brotherhood has run amok, with reports from several different media agencies that the radical Muslims have begun crucifying opponents of newly installed President Mohammed Morsi.

Middle East media confirm that during a recent rampage, Muslim Brotherhood operatives “crucified those opposing Egyptian President Muhammad Morsi naked on trees in front of the presidential palace while abusing others.”
Anyone want to go see the Pyramids?

I guess it still might be safer than Mexico.

Wurd.

Win for real Americans, loss for beltway power brokers that travel the world on our dime.

I call that a double-win.

You know, in this crowd I didn't think I needed to spell out the Monty Python reference...

At least Angel Eyes got it.

You didn't need to. Looks like you did anyways. :lol:

We were all just stunned into silence by your post which shined out like a shaft of gold when all around it is dark.

Post by: gunsmith on August 21, 2012, 12:49:39 AM: Laura Ingraham briefly mentioned the alleged crucifixions today on Fax News, she is usually pretty good about not reporting rumors - is it possible its true, and if it is true - wouldn't other news outlets be talking about it?

Post by: longeyes on August 21, 2012, 10:43:44 AM: If I were an Egyptian I'd be careful about using anything resembling a cross, even for punishment. It might be misunderstood by your peers.

Stoning--for stone-age minds--seems much more appropriate.
