Falafel Offensive to Allah

Ferk. I knew they wanted to drag the country back to the dark ages, I never knew they wanted to do so, literally.

What we are doing there is a question that will be asked for all eternity.

What is GW, Rummy and Condi gonna do about this latest insult to democracy ...this time not in Afghanistan but in the recently and allegedly democratized Iraq? Nothing, just like they did nothing about apostasy everywhere in the region including most recently in narco central Afghanistan.

Hard to believe Afghanistan and Iraq aren't shining examples of perfection. After all, we are perfect here in the good ol' U S o' A. So why can't those other countries follow suit too?
 
One can only imagine how much worse they would have reacted if the falafel had tabouli and houmus with it...

ETA: It IS an appalling situation, and a lesson in the evils of fundamentalism.
 
I, for one, support the falafel jihad. As well as the brussel sprout jihad, the lima bean jihad, and especially the peeps jihad.
 
I've never had a falafel, but now I shall. The enemy of my enemy probably tastes yummy.
 
Myself, I backed the mullahs when they banned pop music, playing chess, and flying kites.

But this time they've gone too far.
 
Perhaps we need the cracking-your-knuckles-loudly-to-really-annoy-your-mother jihad now...

They could invade it.

A Fatwah can be issued by anyone who calls himself a holy man, IIRC. There were fatwahs issued that called for people to vote in the elections in Iraq. I seriously doubt the people who issued those fatwahs would be the same ones issuing this fatwah.

Falafel is delicious, but make sure you go to a real Arab or Jewish shop to buy one. There are as many variations of Falafel as there are street vendors making it, and then the toppings are imporant as well, and just as varied.

It's true. Jews and Arabs are endowed with a special magic that allows them to be the exclusive makers of falafel the world over.

The best falafel I've ever had was made by Jews. The second best was made by Lebanese. They sold the franchise to some Indians, and it went down, but some Arabs bought it and now it's pretty good.

The third best was at the Cafe Rimini in Leicester Square.

Felafel I can live without.

But just try and take away my mixed kebab with extra chilly sauce!

What I want to know is what a Doner looks like before they knock of its limbs, skin it and stick it on that rotating spike thingy...

Its a little known fact that if you have never had a single bite of Falafel you don't pass wind. All ongoing flatulance the world over is a direct result of some exposure to Falafel, no matter how minor.

That's exactly what I do whenever I want to drive Mrs. BPSCG's mother completely 'round the bend.

The cracking, that is. Not the jihad. Hope she doesn't get any ideas...

That's disturbing, coming from Sargeant Shultz...
