Slay the Pagans????

[rhionnach]

According to what has been said on a forum I'm on another reason for the PF deciding to cancel the conference is because of a radio broadcast on Radio 4 on Sunday morning when they broadcast an excert from the Koran that urges:

"But when the forbidden months are past, then fight and slay the Pagans wherever ye find them"

As the area has a high Muslim population this made the PF feel unsafe and so added to the risk.

What a pile of poo.

Re: I think in this context the Koran

I think they meant that the high Muslim population in the area around the conference venue was scaring the Pagans wanting to attend.

I think that your interpretation is the right one - it looks like the translators were using the Christian usage of the term (ie, someone that's not us).
