Muslims Demand Olympics Be Rescheduled
Our ever-resourceful Muslim friends have managed once again to find a reason to be offended by a world that treats them with nauseating obsequiousness. The London 2012 Olympics have been "plunged into controversy" by the revelation that they will occur during Ramadan, Islam's sliding holy month.
That year Ramadan will run from July 21 to August 20, and the Olympics from July 27 to August 12. This will put Muslim athletes at a disadvantage, because Allah doesn't want them to eat while the sun is up during Ramadan.
Growled Massoud Shadjareh of Londonistan's Islamic Human Rights Commission:
It shows a complete lack of awareness and sensitivity.
Translation:
We smell another excuse to bully the rest of the world. Back down or there may be riots and terrorist attacks.
Said International Olympics Committee spokeswoman Giselle Davies:
The Games bring together virtually every religion and creed. How to deal with religious clashes is up to the athletes.
Yes, but Islam isn't like other religions. It is the only true religion. If you don't agree, prepare to get your throat cut by some glassy-eyed thug who thinks we're still living in the Sixth Century.
Next they will demand that all female athletes perform in burkas, so that Muslim women will not be disadvantaged.
On a tip from Barb.

More British Moonbattery: A 10-year-old British boy has been banned from his school dining hall because his packed lunch broke the government's healthy eating guidelines.
NYC Mayor Bloomberg is reportedly following this report with interest.

I'm sure the London olympic organisers will jump at the chance to delay the olympics by a few weeks. It'll give them an excuse for any overruns they will inevitably make...

Perhaps a compromise can be reached: all competing athletes will observe the Ramadan fast, "leveling the field" in the manner approved by leftwingers everywhere. An added bonus is that it's one step closer to getting all of the world to unite under the banner of the "religion of peace."

Oh dear! "An anticipated 3,000 Muslim competitors are expected to be affected."
Surely they'll be at a huge disadvantage if they follow the Religion of Peace and fast from sunrise to sundown during Ramadan which, unfortunately for them, just happens to coincide with the Olympics in 2012.
Too bad, so sad...like I really give a rat's patootie.
However, I am interested to see just how far the Brit dhimmis and the IOC will bend over to accommodate these people.

My question is, how many Muslims have actually won medals at the Olympics?
That swimming garb is moronic.
Someone with some cajones should simply say, "After Munich, you have no say in the Olympics."

This is wonderful news! The Muslims will be so busy with the fasting and they bitching and whatnot that it will probably be the Olympics with the lowest risk of attack. We should have ALL olympics during Ramadan.

The July 7 transit bombings in London took place the day after London was awarded the 2012 games.
It strikes me that more than enough has already been done by certain individuals to wreck the games.
My bet is that the games won't be rescheduled.

What is that? An Arab SMURF? There should be a Pork-Rind eating event in The Olympics and Muslims should be forced to compete.

That swim suit is a little risque, I can see her feet!
