Reuters IP Sends Jihadist Death Threat To Little Green Footballs

That headline overstates it a bit, but I couldn't think of how else to say it briefly. It's not a death threat, per se, or at least not one that could get you charged. It's cuter than that:

I look forward to the day when you pigs get your throats cut....

Not an actual threat so much as the masturbatory fantasy of a warped, impotent she-boy.

And-- from a Reuters account.

LGF has an idea that it might just be this "moderate muslim," a man who praised both Sheik Omarr and Osama bin Ladin, and who was actually chosen by Britain's Home Office as one of seven Muslims tasked with rooting out extremism among Muslims.

A guy who praised OBL as a hero is the most moderate Britain can find in its Muslim "leadership."

He was tipped to the LGF website after having written this article for the Guardian, which argues that the DaVinci Code is the key to reducing Christian-Muslim tensions. How so? Well, if Christians would only accept Dan Brown's thesis that Christianity is founded upon a lie, and therefore Islam is the One True Faith, all of our problems would go away, no?

Well, no. It's not the religion, at least not on this end. It's the culture. I'm an agnostic leaning towards atheist and trust me, Christianity is the least of what separates us. Decency, humanity, enlightment, and a post Dark Ages civilization are sticking points, before we even get to that Jesus guy.

At any rate, someone with access to a Reuters IP is sending emails from fake addresses like "zionistpig" and drooling over the day his infidel oppressors have their throats cut. LGF has written to Reuters to ask about this.

I expect a prompt and vigorous investigation by Reuters, post-haste.
