Fearsome Warriors Indeed
Iraqi soldiers bit the heads off frogs and ate the heart of a rabbit as signs of courage on Wednesday at a ceremony to transfer Najaf province, home to one of Shi'ite Islam's holiest shrines, from U.S. to Iraqi control.
Politicians, tribal and religious leaders and soldiers watched displays of military prowess and one demonstration, hailed as a display of courage, in which five soldiers stopped before the grandstand to bite the heads off frogs.
A sixth holding a live rabbit slit open its stomach and ate its heart before tossing the carcass to his comrades to chew on.
Troops paraded round in shining new vehicles decked with pink ribbons and flowers...
Yup, nothing shows strength like biting the head off a frog and eating the heart of a rabbit.
G-d help us.

They disgust me! Islam is a Satanic religion. Moon G-d indeed! It's amazing to me that most people turn a "blind eye" to this fact.
Yes, go on and prove what big brave men you are by sacrificing a poor little bunny. Pathetic!

This is what happens when you translate only the first chapter of The Atkins Diet into Arabic.
