A member of British Parliament says he fears violence at an open air mass with Pope Benedict XVI after an Islamic publication called Muslims to attend the Mass to convert Catholics and “tell the Pope in no uncertain terms what Muslims think of his evil slanders against the last Prophet of God and his message.”Hmm. It's true The Islamic Standard wrote this:
We at the Islamic Standard hope the Muslims of Birmingham take this duel opportunity to give Da’wah to these 80,000 travelling disbelievers, whilst at the same time telling the Pope in no uncertain terms what Muslims think of his evil slanders against the last Prophet of God and his message.Heh. Probably they mean "dual," but one never knows....
But it seems to be a smallish blog. My mind runs more to the idea that plenty of MPs would like to see the Pope's visit canceled, and will do what they can to make it seem impossibly difficult.
Now there is protectthepope.com, and I note that a womyn's ordination group is likewise predicting "heightened tensions" around the pope's visit.
Muslim radicals and feminists, together again.
P.S. FWIW, the blogger at the Islamic Standard denies he's inciting anyone to violence.
