who in the hell is this author?

Only by becoming truly independent will they be able to stand up to the nonsense coming from Washington, London, Amsterdam, Copenhagen and elsewhere.

Does this mean he'll be making himself "truly independent" from the West and going back to live in the glorious Muslim world?

[Dallas59]

Yep....Freedom of Speech should be curtailed...includes Muslims too fat ass

[martin_fierro]

The more I hear about this "Mohammed cartoon" silliness, the more I'm reminded of the haggling that goes on the a rug bazaar -- lots of noise, lots of drama, lots of manuevering, plenty of intimidation -- all to push an incremental point.

If we cave on this free speech issue, it'll only be a matter of time until the Muslim world presses for more. And then more.

Screw 'em. The Muslim world first needs to atone for the kidnapping and behading of innocents. THEN maybe we can talk about some silly-a$$ cartooning.

I am retiring but I think I will g into pig farming. There is going to be a huge market for pig skin blankets.

I agree. They are just using this as an exuse to create havoc and terror.

I Agree. They're hoping to eventually create a world war, where they figure they might have a shot at world domination. That's why we have to keep them in check now.

Sent to the good professor as email:
I read your article in the San Antonio Express-News about Muslim satire. I am confused.
While you pay lip service to nonviolence it is not being practiced by Muslim activists. You declare that the US interferes in the business of other countries when they are violent. Is this somehow inappropriate? Clearly the US has no interest in overthrowing peace loving governments.
The fault, sir, and there are many, lie with your Muslim compatriots who seek to enforce their religious beliefs by violence. "Death to the infidels" is a cry we have come to fear.
The US will not long endure violence in our midst without retaliating. Our actions in Afganistan and Iraq have been measured and deliberate. We have removed tyrannical governments that opressed Muslims and presented a threat to world peace. When Muslims cease instilling fear in the non Muslim world they (you) will find greater tolerance.
I am certain that you do not see matters in the same light. There is, however, one God, by any name, and He loves his children to be at peace with each other.

Goodbye Mansour. We don't want to dirty your wonderfulness any further here in infidel-land.

Have a great life back in Sandistan. AMF.

[son of caesar]

uh, why do you say we fear the cry of DEATH TO THE INFIDELS? i for one dont fear it at all. be very careful, this issue about the cartoons is much more than just the cartoons on both sides. if we show fear, they will close for the kill. btw, imo, the cartoons are childish and silly, its rude to mock peoples relgions. but the cartoons are out there and now the fallout must be dealt with. but fear? never.

BTTT!

Don't forget #7,

Get the F*** out, you miserable bastard and take all the goat-loving terrortists with you

[Malesherbes]

You are right, but they have no intention of going back where they came from. They'll stay here, enjoying all the benefits while forming a Fifth Column in our midst.

[Louis Foxwell]

uh, why do you say we fear the cry of DEATH TO THE INFIDELS? i for one dont fear it at all.

Do not misunderestimate my words. The fear of 9/11 redux motivates us to take the fight to the enemy. We are not at war out of some loving sense of joy and peace. We fight to overcome the very real fear of continued violence upon us.

[Pepper777]

I'm watching the morning news. This is outrageous. The muslims are going nuts in several countries over cartoons.

I wonder exactly who is behind these organized riots.

[son of caesar]

i dont think of fear at all regarding the muslims. i think of it more as duty to decency. we just have different definitions is all. now bear in mind, i have no desire to die by a muslims hands, but this fight is so one sided imo, if only we would really fight them as they wish.

[tet68]

Fifteen million Muslims in Europe and 8 million in America have been subjected to alienation, discrimination, cultural, political and legal barriers by governments and citizens alike, all done in the name of security or freedom of expression.

Oh Mansour, you as they say, "ain't seen nothing yet", as
far as what will be done in the name of our security.

Jihad is what YOU believe in , and Jihad is what you SHALL
have.

[M. Dodge Thomas]

Second, they need to respect themselves and demonstrate freedom of expression by weaning themselves off Western aid, goods and services. Moreover, they must divest themselves from Western markets.

I wonder what he plans to do with all of those petro-dollars.

[arasina]

so you would kill a person that is opposing and religious carricatures in the name of free speech an as an act to counter hatredd and violence ?

How about just going the Muslim route instead? Slap him with sandals, spit on his mustache, something like that. Would that be okay with you, globalheater?
