IT'S BECAUSE WE UNDERSTAND THE STRENGTHS THAT WE'RE LIBERATING THE BELIEVERS (via Robert Schwartz):
Prince Charles to plead Islam's cause to Bush (Andrew Alderson, 29/10/2005, Daily Telegraph)
The Prince of Wales will try to persuade George W Bush and Americans of the merits of Islam this week because he thinks the United States has been too intolerant of the religion since September 11.The Prince, who leaves on Tuesday for an eight-day tour of the US, has voiced private concerns over America's "confrontational" approach to Muslim countries and its failure to appreciate Islam's strengths. [...]
Prince Charles has done more than any other member of the Royal Family in history to understand Islam. He said in 1994 that when he became Supreme Governor of the Church of England, he would rather be "defender of faiths" than "defender of the faith".
Pity the poor Anglicans, with a crypto-Catholic PM and and a crypto-Muslim king-in-waiting. Posted by Orrin Judd at October 29, 2005 11:35 PM
Charles has always been a moonbat in search of genocidal maniacs to appease. He's basically a Galloway with some castles.

Posted by: curt at October 30, 2005 9:02 AMCharles has long been rumored to have converted to Islam. That would render him unfit to be King. Mummsy is waiting until Wills is of mature age, say 25 or 30, and has married.
