Actually the joke might be that the virgins are male. Rounding up 72 male virgins might be a Sisyphean task but it must be undertaken nonetheless to please the mighty one. However, I don't recall reading that the virgins must be female.

Imagine a suicide bomber entering paradise and asking for his 72 virgins. He is escorted to a room and told: "Enjoy yourself". He opens the door and he spots 72 unshaven, sandal-wearing, ugly, fat, sweaty men smelling of camel dung and all pouting their lips.

A chap walks in to a sex shop in London and asks for an inflateable doll.

The sales attendant ask him whether he'd like a male or female. "female, pls" , he says.

Black or white, sir? "White, thank you" he replies.

Christian or Muslim, sir? "I say, what on earth has religion to do with a sex toy" exclaims the customer.

Replies the attendant, in a whisper, "the Muslim dolls tend to blow themselves up, sir"

[came from London, a few days after 7/7 ]

I agree with the gist of the article - that Islam should be sent up along with everything else. However, it should be Muslims themselves who laugh at their own religion, and I have seen precious little humour in the world of Islam. Any religion that decrees execution for 'apostates' (those who leave Islam) really doesnt have many prospect for humour or irony).

sneekeepete: "Now there's something to worry about - more so than a bunch of god fearing muslims who are more like you and me than you might care to think" ---

well, I dunno about that one. Perhaps they are like *you* - but I dont see much resemblance to myself in the Muslim worldview. For example:

THE founder of Australia's first Muslim political party says he wants Koranic law put in place nationally. "We want leaders who believe in Allah and will legislate accordingly for the laws that Allah prefers for our personal lives."

Senior Kuwaiti Official: "Katrina is a Wind of Torment and Evil from Allah Sent to This American Empire"

'In reaction to Hurricane Katrina and the destruction in its wake, a high-ranking Kuwaiti official, Muhammad Yousef Al-Mlaifi, who is director of the Kuwaiti Ministry of Endowment's research center, published an article titled "The Terrorist Katrina is One of the Soldiers of Allah, But Not an Adherent of Al-Qaeda."

"Have the storms have joined the Al-Qaeda terrorist organization?"

"The Disaster Will Keep Striking the Unbelievers for What They Have Done"

"But before I went to sleep, I opened the Koran and began to read in Surat Al-R'ad ['The Thunder' chapter], and stopped at these words [of Allah]: 'The disaster will keep striking the unbelievers for what they have done, or it will strike areas close to their territory, until the promise of Allah comes to pass, for, verily, Allah will not fail in His promise. ' [Koran 13:31]."

I dont see that we have anything in common with these people, or that we ever will. Australia has had to alter our laws and enact new ones to restrain Muslim behaviour. Not funny.

I note in Dee's post how Muhammad Yousef Al-Mlaifi, who is director of the Kuwaiti Ministry of Endowment's research center, said: "The Terrorist Katrina is One of the Soldiers of Allah". I wonder if his view of the Tsunami is the same. If he responded with aid to the Americans like the Western infidels responded to Aceh.

I say - Please POST MORE JOKES! We could put together a joke book for Muslim Immams lectures.

Does this mean that referring to Arabs as towel-heads is no longer considered to be in bad taste?
