I can’t stay this morning, but I just wanted to drop off this little jewel, brought to you by idiots Walid Shoebat & son via WND (emphasis mine):

High-schoolers told cannibalism allowed
^{University where Obama spoke instructs in ‘this type of violence’}

The curriculum used to instruct young Egyptian students includes permission for them to use Christians and others as lunch, according to a startling report from Walid and Theodore Shoebat, on the website for Walid Shoebat, a former Muslim Brotherhood member who is now a peace activist.

“In the future, the Egyptian Islamists will not only be conducting systematic violence, but cannibalism against Christians and moderates,” they reported, citing a video interview from a man identified as “One Egyptian scholar” that is online.

The teachings are from the curriculum coming from Al-Azhar university, “the most reputable of all Islamic schools,” according to the report that includes video from the Eretz Zen Channel. […]

As you can see from these Google results, the wingnuts are on it. I’m trying to get angry, but I can’t seem to stop LOL long enough to work myself up into a fit of outrage. If you read the whole article you’ll see that they even provide a page number from the supposed Al-Azhar book in question, to make it seem more legit.

FWIW, Sharia covers just about everything, so I’m sure it covers cannibalism too. I know for a fact that we’re allowed to eat pork or any other prohibited thing if and ONLY if we’re in danger of dying of starvation., so I wouldn’t be surprised if cannibalism was also allowed in order to survive as the preservation of life is paramount; dietary rules do not trump it.

I don’t know of any society or religion that would prohibit cannibalism under dire circumstances, but “systematic” cannibalism of Christians & moderates being sanctioned? That’s beyond absurd—it’s a form of blood libel.

As far as I can tell, the “Eretz Zen Channel” is nothing more than some guy’s YouTube channel. From what I gather, he’s Lebanese former military commander-in-chief, Michel Aoun. Based on his name he’s Christian, so that might explain his hostility towards Muslims. As for his military background, who knows? Shoebat claims to have been a former terrorist, which is pure bunk.
