In spite of the facts; that the quotation used by the Pope was taken completely out of the larger context of the talk he was giving, he has issued two apologies regretting that Muslims were offended, and the reactions that have given truth to the words he spoke, Islamic leaders are calling for further apologies. What is clear, however, is that there is only one apology that will fully satisfy their crazed, warped view of how things should be.

Al-Qaida in
Iraq warned Pope Benedict XVI on Monday that its war against Christianity and the West will go on until Islam takes over the world, and Iran’s supreme leader called for more protests over the pontiff’s remarks on Islam.

“You infidels and despots, we will continue our jihad (holy war) and never stop until God avails us to chop your necks and raise the fluttering banner of monotheism, when God’s rule is established governing all people and nations,” said the statement by the Mujahedeen Shura Council, an umbrella organization of Sunni Arab extremist groups in Iraq.

Another Iraqi extremist group, Ansar al-Sunna, challenged “sleeping Muslims” to prove their manhood by doing something other than “issuing statements or holding demonstrations.”

“If the stupid pig is prancing with his blasphemies in his house,” the group said in a Web statement, referring to the pope, “then let him wait for the day coming soon when the armies of the religion of right knock on the walls of Rome.”

In Iran, supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei used the comments to call for protests against the United States. He argued that while the pope may have been deceived into making his remarks, the words give the West an “excuse for suppressing Muslims” by depicting them as terrorists.

“Those who benefit from the pope’s comments and drive their own arrogant policies should be targeted with attacks and protests,” he said, referring to the United States.

There is one line in the article in which I am complete agreement:

Extremists said the pope’s comments proved that the West was in a war against Islam.

It’s about time we realized that fact. There is only one apology that these Islamofacists will accept. That is for the Pope, the U.S., the West, and the world to apologize for not becoming Muslims.

Remember, Islam means submission.
