"Leading Muslim scholars, activists, and opposition politicians have supported the Christians’ right to call God Allah, and yesterday’s protests were relatively small, with most of the congregation ignoring them"
Yeah, why would Muslims get angry at that?
Wouldn't they view that as ONE STEP CLOSER to CONVERSION?
I mean, they wouldn't be trying to proselytize you with pressure because they never do (despite what the Zionist MSM implies), so why would they get angry about CHRISTIANS calling God ALLAH!?

"Malaysian churches attacked amid argument over ‘Allah’" by Vijay Joshi, Associated Press | January 9, 2010
KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia - Religious tensions in Muslim-majority Malaysia turned violent yesterday with firebomb attacks on three churches after a court decision that allows Christians to translate God as Allah.
“Allah is only for us,’’ said a poster waved during one of at least two protests outside mosques in Kuala Lumpur yesterday, the Muslim holy day. Many Muslims are angry about a High Court decision Dec. 31 overturning a government ban on Roman Catholics using “Allah’’ for God in the Malay-language edition of their main newspaper, the Herald.
Oh, so THIS is the DISTORTED LEAD we are TREATED TO?
The PROTESTS that were SMALL and IGNORED are being FEATURED by the AGENDA-PUSHING Zionist newspapers, eh?
The ruling also applies to the ban’s broader applications, such as Malay-language Bibles, 10,000 copies of which were recently seized by authorities because they translated God as Allah.
“We will not allow the word Allah to be inscribed in your churches,’’ a speaker shouted over a loudspeaker at the Kampung Bahru mosque. The Herald says its Malay edition is read mainly by Christian indigenous tribes in the remote states of Sabah and Sarawak. But the government contends that making Allah synonymous with God may confuse Muslims and mislead them into converting to Christianity, a punishable offense in Malaysia despite a constitution that guarantees freedom of religion.
You know, EITHER WAY, it is NO BIG DEAL, I don't care what the agenda-pushing Jewish paper say. I HAVE NO BEEF with MUSLIMS and THEY HAVE NO BEEF with ME!!!!
And HOW ODD a DECISION by the MOST TOLERANT of all Muslim governments, hmmmm?
It suggests using “Tuhan,’’ but Christians say Tuhan is more like “Lord,’’ and can’t replace “Allah.’’
And NOW, the TRUTH -- HALFWAY THROUGH the PROPAGANDA if you made it.
Leading Muslim scholars, activists, and opposition politicians have supported the Christians’ right to call God Allah, and yesterday’s protests were relatively small, with most of the congregation ignoring them. Still, the unprecedented church attacks compounded the difficulties for a country that prides itself on having managed to maintain broad harmony among a mix of races and religious groups. About 9 percent of Malaysia’s 28 million people are Christian, including 800,000 Catholics, most of whom are ethnic Chinese or Indian. Muslims are 60 percent.
Yeah, WHAT a STINK since they have been LIVING THERE for CENTURIES together!! Sorry, *ewspaper, we are ON TO the "GAME!"
Minorities have long complained of discrimination. The government refuses to allow construction of new churches and temples, court verdicts in religious disputes usually favor Muslims, and an array of laws guarantees preferential treatment for Malays, the dominant and largely Muslim ethnic group, in jobs, housing, and education.
That's the TOLERANT Malaysians, huh?
And it is NOT LIKE RELIGION never plays a role in the Zionist-dominated AmeriKan politics, 'eh?
Of course, of that, the Muslim-hating Zionist papers say nothing.
“The distrust has always been there but now the minorities in Malaysia feel that they are under siege,’’ said James Chin, who teaches political science at the Monash University in Malaysia.
Yeah, by a SUPER-MINORITY of AGENT PROVOCATEUR EXTREMISTS -- just like the *EWS!!!!
I don't even need links anymore; if it is in the agenda-pushing paper you KNOW the ANGLE and WHO is behind things -- just by the OMISSIONS and COVERAGE SELECTIONS.
The Allah ban is unusual in the Muslim world. The Arabic word is commonly used by Christians to describe God in such countries as Egypt and Syria.
:-)
I don't mind.
The confiscated Bibles came from neighboring Indonesia, an overwhelmingly Muslim country.
Yup, drag them back into this (no mention of Clinton campaign cash?)!
Btw, whatever happened to the earthquake, flood, and landslide clean-up in Indonesia, Glob?
In the worst incident, the ground-floor office of the three-story Metro Tabernacle Church was gutted by a firebomb thrown by attackers on motorcycles, police said.
Yup, STINKS!!!!!!!

And they are still at it:
"4th church bombed after ‘Allah’ ruling
KUALA LUMPUR - A fourth church was hit by firebombs yesterday, stoking concern among Christians as a dispute rages over the use of the word “Allah’’ by non-Muslims. The latest attack occurred after three other churches were firebombed Friday, just days after a Kuala Lumpur court ruled that non-Muslims could use the word “Allah’’ to refer to God in their literature.
Yeah, those Muslim savages, right, Christians?
--more--"
Remember, that's a Zionist Jew megaphone in your ear, America, screaming as loud as it can.
