The NME.com report about Muhammad Abdel-Al's intemperate attack on Britney and Madonna is interesting:

Muhammad Abdel-Al is quoted in new book 'Schmoozing With Terrorists: From Hollywood to the Holy Land Jihadists Reveal their Global Plans - to a Jew!' attacks the two pop stars, labelling them "prostitutes".

Abdel-Al rants, "If I meet these whores I will have the honour - I repeat, I will have the honour - to be the first one to cut the heads off Madonna and Britney Spears if they will keep spreading their satanic culture against Islam."

He did, however, say that Dannii Minogue was alright.

Now, clearly, there's something wonderful about someone who thinks that Britney Spears is in a position to get out of the house on her own, much less spread a satanic culture against a major world religion, but what really puzzled us was this:

The comments have been made just as Madonna and husband Guy Ritchie prepare to celebrate the Jewish New Year with 2,000 Kabbalah followers in Israel.

The comments were made... when? Just made? In a book that's already been printed? "The comments were ragged out by a publisher's PR person just as...", shurely?
