Ain’t Islam grand?
This is a growing trend in Muslim countries under Islamic law. Poetic, is it not? Islam bans love. Romance is un-Islamic. True that.
Officials and clerics in Indonesia have banned Valentine’s Day, saying that it is not part of Islamic culture. Last year in “moderate” Malaysia, the National Muslim Youth Association issued a fatwa the day before Valentine’s Day advising Muslim women against using emoticons in text messages, and telling them to simplify conversation when private messaging and avoid wearing fragrance. And Saudi Arabia joined the list of countries that have banned celebrating Valentine’s Day.

Love is in the air, but not on airwaves as Pakistan bans Valentine’s Day

The Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority (Pemra) issued an advisory on Wednesday warning television and radio stations against any Valentine’s Day celebrations.
“No event shall be held at the official level or at any public place,” Pemra said.
The ban was introduced by Islamabad High Court last year after a petition by a citizen who said the Feb. 14 holiday was a cultural import from the West and “against the teachings of Islam”.
More than 60 percent of the population of the Muslim-majority nation is aged under 30. Many young people and commercial establishments have in recent years embraced Valentine’s Day hearts, flowers and chocolates.
But the country of 208 million has also seen a wave of ultra-religious political activism that has brought a backlash against such celebrations, which some call immoral.
Parties including the Taliban-linked Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam parties have in recent years held rallies to denounce the holiday.
“We’re Muslims. Our religion forbids things like Valentine’s Day,” said Taufeeq Leghari, who was waiting for transport close to a florist’s stall in Rawalpindi, adjacent to Islamabad.
Flower seller Salman Mahmod took a different view.“I don’t know what danger these Islamists would face if I earn a little more from selling flowers and someone can have a chance to celebrate something,” he said.
Young people are not too afraid of the ban.
“I will celebrate,” said 21-year-old university student Abid Ansari in Islamabad. “This is my choice.”

They better wear fragrances.
I’ve gotten too many whiffs of mooslimy women that don’t wear deodorant, even. It’s like getting a whiff of ammonia under your nose.

The only ones who don’t see happiness in holidays are Muslims. It’s literally against their religion. As an example: Do they celebrate birthdays, have carnivals, Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts. Do the children learn instruments, opera, dance etc. Their culture is death and destruction with the delusion of Satan being God.

The whole world has their eyes on the crackpot regime in North Korea, but it would not surprise me at all if the first nuclear exchange in history will involve Pakistan. (1945 Japan doesn’t really count as a nuclear exchange) One of the largest mistakes of all time was for the world to allow an Islamic shithole like Pakistan to get nukes. And, if you’ve ever seen the border guard ceremonies at the gate between Pakistan and India, you will understand how unstable these idiots are. It actually makes a Road Runner cartoon seem plausible by comparison.

Valentine’s Day has CHRISTIAN roots and you know how Muslims feel about Christianity. Besides LOVE is not an ingredient in ANY Muslim relationship. Females are property to be used and abused and have kids. Females are viewed an unclean property and WHY they wear BLACK and all covered up whereas Muslim males wear WHITE for purity.

Where did you ever get such drivel? Western culture has man made in G-d’s image. Western science HAS determined, by extensive DNA study, that moslems are the descendants of the cross-breeding of monkeys with pigs. That is why they are lower than rats and cockroaches .. moslems are the vilest of ALL creatures.

The only monkeys that you will see, in Europe, are the moslems .. ALL living on taxpayer provided support. Over 80% of ALL moslems (not just “refugees” or “immigrants” but ALL moslems) living in Western Europe are on FULL taxpayer support. The moslems (the vilest of ALL creatures) very food, clothing, and shelter … not to mention health care and monthly cash stipends …. are provided by hardworking human being tax payers. Face it, a boar hog (male moslem) cannot even feed itself, much less provide for its brood sows (female moslems) and litters (vermin moslem offspring). It’s just like a pig farm, or monkeys at a zoo … Human beings provide everything …. as the vilest of ALL creatures (moslems), are nothing but pigs on a farm ….

No wonder ……. You are the genuine embodiment of “love & compassions” of universal JudeoChristian Western spirit :
“The Jews are called human beings, but the non-Jews are not humans. THEY ARE BEASTS.” TALMUD: Baba Mezia, 114b (page referrals).
“The Akum (non-Jew) is like a dog. Yes, the scripture says to honor the dog more than the non-Jew.” TALMUD:Ereget Raschi Erod, 22 30.
“Even though God created the non-Jew they are still ANIMALS in human form. It is not becoming of a Jew to be served by an animal. Therefore he will be served by animals in human form.” TALMUD: Midrasch Talpioth, p 225, Warsaw 1855.
“A pregnant non-Jew is no better than a pregnant ANIMAL.” TALMUD: Coschen Hamischpat 405.
“Although the non-Jew has the same body structure as the Jew, they compare with the Jew as a monkey to a human.” TALMUD: Schene luchoth haberuth, p 250b.
“The souls of non-Jews come from impure spirits and are called PIGS.” TALMUD: Jalkut Rubeni gadol 12b.
“If you eat with a non-Jew it is the same as eating with a dog.” TALMUD: Tosapoth, Jebamoth 94b.

Anything that “converts” to mohammedanism .. was NEVER a human being, in the first place. They were, also, the descendants of the cross-breeding of monkeys and pigs .. they just hadn’t found their subanimal packs, with which to run. Those subhuman, no .. lower than any cockroach .. finally found their own breed.
Hell, I’m not a Jew .. but, at least Jews are human beings, something that a moslem CANNOT ever be.
“hehehehehehehehe….”
When moslems (the vilest of ALL creatures) are cut off of ALL taxpayer provided support .. NO non moslem money or aid … sent to them from human beings .. there won’t be one single, solitary moslem left. A male moslem (boar hog) cannot even feed itself, much less provide for their brood sows and litters. Even cockroaches can fend for themselves .. But, a moslem (FAR lower than any cockroach) can NOT. Stop human beings from feeding, clothing, and sheltering moslems …. within less than one month … NO moslem will be left alive.

I remember a charming story about Pakistain Ms. Geller had here. It involved a video of Pakistaini men dancing while women clapped in time to the music (but didn’t dance, the women didn’t dare dance), I think it was a wedding party. In any case, a fatwah was issued by the local imam and everyone in the video disappeared, never to be seen again. Whether they escaped the death fatwah issued by their local muslum cleric is anyone’s guess.

Why don’t they all commit suicide? Think about it. It would certainly help them in their wish to meet Allah; they have acheived nothing whatsoever for anyone in 1400 years. There have produced no art, no literature, no music and no philosophy. No -one would miss them. No-one would notice for several years. Maybe in a few years a German policeman might remark to a colleague that he’s got a lot more free time and that parking around the mosque is a lot easier. Syria and Egypt would revert to being Christian and Turkey would revert to being Zoastrian. In fact the whole world would be a much more pleasant place. And oil would be cheaper.
