The other day I was watching this Fox 5 news interview with a white woman whose sister married a Muslim man. The woman, describing their wedding, said that the man came dressed in Jihad. They then dramatically flashed a picture of him at the wedding...in a traditional sherwani....... WOW reallyy? MLID.

What do you mean dressed in 'Jihad'? Is that supposed to be a label? 'cause as far as I know Jihad means 'Islamic war'.

@1 Don't mean to be too critical lol but Jihad doesn't mean "Islamic War" it means "struggle(in the way of Allah)" & yeah I was at a boiling point while watching this. Fox News is one of the most ignorant & senseless news channels out there.

@ #3 Well yes, you got what I was saying. And jihad is fighting in the name of Allah, whether it be physical or just keeping that intention in mind.

Wow, talk about ignorance for the one you (loved?) and married. I think Fox News is really racist and secretly run by a bunch of left wing lobbyists. I was really angered when that ignorant Glenn Beck said that the quality of medicine and hospitals is substandard and that the name "Ganges (River)" sounds like a disease. Blame it on the stupid British for exploiting our resources, dividing the nation, and then screwing up the names of places. I refuse to call it the Ganges river and I call it the Ganga (Gun-gaa) River.
