Not Neutral About the Swiss

Addlepated Libyan potentate Moo Moo Gaddafi is calling upon the faithful to wage jihad against Switzerland:
BENGHAZI, Libya (Reuters) - Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi called on Thursday for a "jihad" or armed struggle against Switzerland, saying it was an infidel state that was destroying mosques.
"Any Muslim in any part of the world who works with Switzerland is an apostate, is against (the Prophet) Mohammad, God and the Koran," Gaddafi said during a meeting in the eastern Libyan city of Benghazi to mark the Prophet's birthday.

"The masses of Muslims must go to all airports in the Islamic world and prevent any Swiss plane landing, to all harbors and prevent any Swiss ships docking, inspect all shops and markets to stop any Swiss goods being sold," Gaddafi said.
Can you perhaps tell us how that jihad business of yours works, oh Waxen One? We're a bit confused about the details: 
"Let us fight against Switzerland, Zionism and foreign aggression," said Gaddafi, adding that "this is not terrorism," in contrast with the work of al Qaeda which he called a "kind of crime and a psychological disease."

"There is a big difference between terrorism and jihad which is a right to armed struggle," he said.
Good to know, Botox breath. And, why, exactly, do you have such strong feelings about boring old Switzerland of all places? (One is reminded of Orson Welles's diss in the movie The Third Man: "Like the fella says, in Italy for 30 years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder, and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and the Renaissance. In Switzerland they had brotherly love - they had 500 years of democracy and peace, and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock.")
Gaddafi accused Switzerland of being an "infidel, obscene state which is destroying mosques," in reference to a Swiss referendum verdict barring construction of minarets.

He called for a "jihad against it with all means."

Gaddafi was speaking before leading prayers in a Benghazi square in the presence of envoys from dozens of Muslim countries.
Uh oh. You're in big trouble now, Switzerland. You can kiss that neutrality shtick of yours g'bye. Looks like this time around you don't get to sit out the world war.

There should be a total ban on Mosques in Europe.
Minarets are bad enough, they are phallic symbols of the hypermasculine Muslims' determination to dominate public space throughout Europe.

But the mosques themselves are even worse, they are fortresses of the enemy. Unlike churches, mosques are not places of spirituality, peace and sanctuary. They are quasi-military citadels and centres of subversion, intimidation and aggression. Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Turkey's prime minister and ex-mayor of Istanbul, said that 'the mosques are our barracks, the minarets our bayonets, the domes our helmets, and the believers our soldiers.'

Hurray! An outreach success! The CJC doesn't like the Minaret Ban either, now they can ally with Qadaffi - get ready for CJCihad!
