    Far-right party launches online video that allows players to shoot down minarets and muezzins.

    [​IMG]

    A far-right party in Austria has sparked outrage by launching an online video game which allows players to shoot down minarets and muezzins calling for prayer.
    The game, called "Moschee Baba", or "Bye Bye Mosque", gives players 60 seconds to collect points by placing a target over cartoon mosques, minarets and Muslims and click a "Stop" sign.

    It is being used by the Freedom Party (FPOe), which has a link to the game on its website, to encourage voters to elect Gerhard Kurzmann, the party's candidate in the picturesque region of Styria.

    "Game Over. Styria is now full of minarets and mosques!" it says at the end of a session, before inviting players to vote for Kurzmann on September 26, when local elections are being held.

    The website then invites viewers to take part in a survey which asks them whether the construction of minarets and mosques should be banned in Austria, and whether Muslims should sign a declaration in which they accept that the law takes precedence over the Quran.

    According to the Austria Press Agency there are no mosques with minarets in Styria, where 1.6 per cent of the population is Muslim, and only four such buildings in the entire country.

    Well humor can sometimes be either funny or insulting. Even the hijacked bus drama in the Philippines was also created as a game in Newgrounds wherein you shoot police officers when they appear in the bus windows.

    Some may find it funny but the Chinese people and the Filipinos don't.

    @OP - I think that it is too much and unnecessary.

    Game has been banned.

    Google translation: "Due to the political influence of our enemies this game was banned by the Austrian Justice!"

    Why people don't respect for the religious differences? There are so many other problems like poverty, incereasing pollution and population than targetting other beliefs.

    Its certainly bad taste but it is fully legal and protected under the principle of freedom of speech - the pillar of western civilazation.
    I mean, nobody with a fair mind could argue that a mosque on ground zero is not too much but a flash game is.

    heh. banned.
    The message reads: "Due to the political influence of our opponents, this game has been banned by the Austrian Justice! now on the 26th of September you decide...."

    Probably the Austrians acted out of fear from Islamist violence.

    Weird he didn't stop the floods in Pakistan maybe he isn't so powerful or just dosn't care or isn't really there. I think it's one of those three.

    Looking at how completely screwed most of the Islamic world is, one can only conclude that if there is a god, he doesn't like Muslims.

    Bleh - Allah's fury will shorten our life-span.

    And, it'll also prevent us from having a shot at multiple virgins in heaven.

    Would you not like to have a shot at multiple virgins at Islamic Heaven?

    Unlike Muhammad, I've never had sex with a nine year old girl. However, I have babysat kids of about that age and I must say... any place with children is, by definition, hell.

    At my age, "virgin" just means "someone I have nothing in common with." I know that completely dependent and dominated women turn some guys on, but... man... that just sounds like a huge hassle.

    You have no f*cking right to insult a whole religion like that DUDE. Who the hell do you think you are??? You obviously don't know anything about this religion!
