Yes, Rupert Murdoch is tweeting the Quran. What could go wrong?
Get real. Koran says(1) "whoever killed a human being…it shall be regarded as having killed all mankind…
— Rupert Murdoch (@rupertmurdoch) May 26, 2013
Koran(2) "except as punishment for murder or other villainy" then defined as "those who wage war against Allah" punishable by beheading.

After two passages, he wasn’t finished.

@lisang so does the Old Testament. True, but we have had something called the Reformation. Remember?

For reference, he sent these two tweets yesterday:
Many UK tweeters say no terror. Admirable, gutsy, but get real and go listen at some mosques. Admit most okay, but others really scary.

With UK on terror alert, Cameron off on holiday in Ibiza. Unbelievable.

We guess some things you have to read to believe.
FYI: @rupertmurdoch is in the middle of unspooling some Koran quotes right now.

Oh dear Rupert Murdoch and the Koran. This is not going to end well.

@rupertmurdoch Have you been hacked?

What is @rupertmurdoch doing stirring trouble by quoting the Quran? You know the zealots will come crashing down on you..

However you planned to start your Memorial Day weekend, you probably didn’t expect to read Rupert Murdoch tweeting the Quran. We didn’t either.
