Taliban In Pakistan Issue Two Month Beard Warning!


Hahahaha! You just can't make this kind of shit up. Let's start with what the little blurb says over at the story at Pakistan's Daily Times:



The Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) warned people on Sunday against shaving their beards, giving people two months to comply with their directive. TTP spokesman Maulvi Umar said that any violation after the two-month deadline would be punished. The TTP has earlier warned barbers against shaving customer’s beards as this was “against” Shariah law.

Ahhhh yes, the "religion" of the 7th century strikes again! I am kind of curious about this two month deal - I'm assuming that means that in two months, anyone without a beard is going to be subject to a stoning or a beheading or having to clean prayer mats with their tongue, eh?

All I can say is that I hope any Pakistani in the TTP's area who just shaved his beard off and it took him three years to grow it can find a way out of town real quick.

Oh hey! I just thought of another possible outcome to this! Since the Taliban have been trying to escape some of the U.S. capture plans by dressing in burqas as women....perhaps a Pakistani male who really wants that clean shaven look could just wear a burqa around and fool those nasty Taliban. :wink:

I'm starting to consider the Flintstones as progressive compared to these muj idjits.
