Dear Producer:
Your spin on the "rioting" in Nigeria is all wrong. Let me give you the
appropriate story as it should be, and as it is actually registering
throughout this corrupted changing world.
"Alert! Muslims in Nigeria take a stand and decide to fight against their
puppet government and it's
USA/Israeli
backers. The waning Western powers are
promoting cultural death, corruption and promiscuity among the Muslim
countries by promoting such activities as beauty contests, dancing and
sexually suggestive music. The so-called beauty pageant is built on
parading near-naked women before the public.
The Muslims see the cultural imperialism as part of an overall attempt
by Israel and the USA to weaken and control the Muslim world. The Muslims
won't stand for it. The Nigerian Muslims are providing a model of how to
respond to such grievous insults to
Islam,
the Prophet Muhammad and Muslim history.
It is assumed by Muslim analysts in America that the nearly two billion
(2,000,000,000) Muslims and their supporters and friends will begin to
respond this way in the future to assaults on the Muslim way of Life."
