Osama’s Journal Reveals Strategy…
.
A gushing CNN interview with the Red Mosque Mullah Abdul Aziz, who talks much about ‘martyrdom’ but  tried to escape in a burqa after the Paki gov’t besieged his mosque and smoked him out. Then comes the obligatory call to Islam, to Obama and America, something the idiots from CNN call “unique”.

Most Pakis grieve for Osama bin Laden
Yet in America media report after media report showed Muslim spokesmen expressing joy and relief that Osama was dead. Can someone explain, please, how Islam in America differs from Islam in Pakistan, such that the reaction to Osama’s death among Muslims in both places is so different? Do they have a different Qur’an? A different Muhammad? Or could it be that the two groups of Muslims actually agree on this question more than they might wish to admit to pollsters or journalists?

ISLAMABAD, Pakistan — Pakistani ground troops opened fire on two NATO helicopters that crossed into Pakistan’s airspace from Afghanistan early Tuesday morning, the Pakistani Army said in a statement. A firefight then briefly erupted between NATO forces and the troops, the statement said, and two Pakistani soldiers were wounded.
Note that for the New York Times and the rest of the mainstream media, you’re “right-wing” if you’re an “Islamist,” and you’re likewise “right-wing” if you oppose the “Islamists.”
