Gaddafi calls for jihad against Switzerland
Source: The Guardian

Libya's leader, Muammar Gaddafi, ­yesterday called for a jihad, or holy war, against Switzerland, in an escalation of his vendetta against the country where police once arrested his son.

At a meeting in the city of Benghazi to mark the prophet Muhammad's birthday, Gaddafi described the country as an infidel state that was "destroying" mosques. Last year he urged the UN to abolish Switzerland and divide it between Germany, France and Italy.

"Any Muslim in any part of the world who works with Switzerland is an apostate – is against Muhammad, God and the Qur'an," Gaddafi said.

1. Some people have an over-developed sense of vengence.
"Hello. My name is Muammar Gaddafi. You arrested my son. Prepare to die."

3. Every male in Switzerland has an automatic rifle in his house...
...and a bottle opener on his pocketknife.


Shoot terrorist, open celebratory bottle of wine and box of chocolates with the wife.

Ta-da!

5. He is approaching 70
This definitely seems like a personal grudge because his son was arrested in Switzerland for allegedly assaulting hotel staff members.

6. Yah. Sane adults make their kids apologize.
The trouble with supreme leaders, as well as rich men like Howard Hughes, is that no one has the nerve to say "See a doctor!" the way they would with someone lower down on the rich and important scale.

14. ? May have more to do with loss of his Swiss Bank Secrecy
Though certainly would not wish to imply that is not possible that he is simply doing this in the Name of Allah.

For Switzerland, being outside the Ummah (Community of the Faithful), clearly is a part of dar al-harb (the Realm of War) and must therefore ultimately be destroyed.

Now is apparently as good a time as any to bring the illuminating light of religion (that of burning cities glimming blood drenched streets) to that particular group of Unbelievers - or is it of Infidels (can never keep it straight: But I bet Allah and God can).

Praise be His Name.

Whatever it may be.

Or not.

15. Kinda cheapens the term "jihad" when used for petty grudges.
