  1. Well at least it was done in the Halal fashion.
    Ironic that they should get to experience what they inflict on animals.
    Guess Allah must have a sense of humour after all.

  2. This is umma on umma action. It gives me satisfaction. Like inter Belcurvii violence it reduces the problem.

  3. Unfortunately, Dan, these barbarian retards also do unto others as they do unto themselves.

  4. Remember the enemy killing their own usually results in the culling of the peaceful enemy and leaves only the vicious deadly enemy.
