Haven’t wee seen enough of Mohammed the pedophile destroyer of virgins?! If I see this a$$clown again, I want to see him at the business end of a piano wire.

She’s old, isn’t she? Wasnt Mohammad married to a 9 year old or something?

Aisha.

Check out the poor kid’s eyes.

And I believe he married her at six, consummating the marriage at 9.

amerpundit on December 19, 2007 at 5:27 PM

In civilized countries he would be put in the general prison population and get what’s coming to him.
In Islam not so much.

yeah, but to them its not pedophilia or ‘wrong’ per se, but ‘normal’. We ‘know’ it to be a perversion, they do not. Judeo-Christian pressupostions vs. Islamic culture pressupositions.

I think this is a time for us to all be less judgmental, and more culturally sensitive.

/sarc liberal douche impersonation.

nothing to see here, he’s just following in the steps of his Prophet…..

I had an islamist tell me (seriously) that a girl is ready to be married at 22 weeks in the womb; when her eggs are developed. So 9 years or 11 years, you are really catching them way beyond their peak, aren’t ya? He should be ashamed!

lorien1973 on December 19, 2007 at 5:34 PM

Did this win because it was showing the abuse of children by a UNICEF photographer (I thought the contest was about children suffering), or did UNICEF think it was awesome that some child is the sexual slave/property of some old, creepy Muslim?

I’m naive and thought the photo was meant to show the horror of the situation when I read the contest results.

lorien1973 on December 19, 2007 at 5:23 PM

Married @ 7, consumated @ 9.

Or we could just come home.

Bull. It’s a perversion. No little girl, no matter what her cultural background, wants to have sex with an old, ugly, dirty old man.

Blake on December 19, 2007 at 5:42 PM

It’s all Bush’s fault!!!

Tell that to Anna Nicole Smith.

Anyone check out the URL in the comment @ December 19, 2007 10:45 AM?

RushBaby on December 19, 2007 at 5:48 PM

That is sickening beyond belief. No wonder some muslim girls want to be suicide bombers.

infidel4life on December 19, 2007 at 5:50 PM

He doesn’t look happy. Maybe he’s worried about the dude raping his own daughter tonight, or because his father keeps raping the goat, or because when he’s 60 his “wife” is gonna cut his schwanz off.

JiangxiDad on December 19, 2007 at 5:57 PM

I can see she’s not as quick to the rescue as Jeri is. Hence, the sour look on his face. He’s toast.

It’s right vs. wrong. It’s unnatural to lust after pre-pubescent girls, and requires a sick ideology to make it “OK”.

Way too much skin and forehead showing.

Yeah…blech, this is just awful, its gonna take a hell of a lot to turn things around over there.

Largest sick cult in the world: Islam

Probably so she didn’t outgrow his miniscule pecker

Ochlan on December 19, 2007 at 6:23 PM

Whose good word do we have that he waited the two years to consumate?

TexasDan on December 19, 2007 at 6:45 PM

Anyone who is opposed to child marraige is an Islamophobe. The Prophet Mohammad (Propellor Beanie Upon Him) had a child bride, as did several of his original followers. Polygamy, slavery, lapidation, public beatings for moral improprieties and child marraige are, in fact, sacred institutions for 1400 years of Islamic history, and are enshrined by the Words of Allah Himself in the Holy Quran. Again we see Western imperialism trying to force the pious believers to abandon their ways.

Jimmy the Dhimmi on December 19, 2007 at 6:49 PM

Another wonderful part of Sharia we’re welcoming with open arms and with prejudice for our own culture.

Speakup on December 19, 2007 at 6:53 PM

At least you recognize who is responsible for not cleaning up this mess, unlike MM>

Mohammed would be so proud.
