Apparently, now if you blow yourself up into little, tiny, unwashed pieces and take an infidel along for the ride, you’ll now get 2.5 MILLION virgins, not the 72 promised to idiots to strap bombs to themselves and go all ‘splodey like!
Palestinian Authority Hamas legislative Speaker Ahmad Bahr has updated from 72 to 2.5 million the number of virgins waiting for “martyrs” upon their arrival “in the Garden of Eden.”
In a recent speech translated by the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI), Bahr, who is the speaker of the Palestinian Legislative Council, said the “palace” where the virgins are waiting can be entered “only by prophets, by the righteous, and by martyrs.”
Most Muslim preachers and politicians have used the expression “72 virgins” to encourage Arab youth to be ready to die in anti-Israeli terrorist attacks and suicide bombings. Bahr’s new arithmetic reasons, “In the Garden of Eden, there is a palace… with 500 gates. At every gate, there are 5,000 black-eyed virgins. Brothers, 500 multiplied by 5,000 is 2.5 million.”
It’s Ham-ass new math, folks.
Or maybe they just adjusted for inflation?

I guess they must be “black eyed” from the Muzzies punching them into submission first… or perhaps they were stoned to death prior to arrival?
