The restraint in speaking freely about the Islamic extremists will not win the war they wage against the Western World. How have we won against the forces of tyranny throughout history? Neville Chamberlain’s European Policy proved that capitulation is the wrong course. We always have won by a show of overwhelming might by a massive coalition of forces. That sends a big message. It is an united message of overwhelming determination.
It is imperative to show that the defective ideology that fuels the Islamic extremist’s effort is a false one. We must deliver a message to the cultural core of the Islamic world. For the sake of all mankind we must set straight an ideology that creates so much havoc and death. How do we do it? It is the cultural war on a psychological level that we must win and we must show our determination to fight it. History has taught that an overwhelming show of force, delivers that psychological element which is the right course. Whenever terrible consequences are suffered, it sets the vital psychological groundwork that initiates the scrutiny of underlying ideology responsible for it.
Overwhelming force stuns the culture that receives it. A stunning message goes deep into the root core of the culture that wages war against others. The argument against Islamic extremism can only begin on a primitive level to promote a self-examination on a rational level; especially when the rational arguments are made at the same time. The goal is to create the groundwork for a dialectic that questions the fundamental arguments of the flawed ideology. The goal is for peaceful coexistence and an end to a culture that wages war and death.

Maybe he thought the times would have to pay fees to reprint the cartoon. I hear they are having money problems at the times.
They are only courageous about attacking America.
Pray America is waking
Did the NY Slimes publish pictures of “P*ss Christ” or “Chocolate Jesus” or the Madonna depicted in elephant dung?
It’s interesting that the NY Times is clearly “reinventing” the truth for this story. In light of the fact that they did something similar with the Pope Francis “Pets in Heaven” story I wonder if this is their new editorial policy.
There are images of it on their site now. These pics are all linked from the NY Times website.
Here is the Madonna.
This is the ants crawling on a crucifix one. Also from the Times website.
These were all in an article about shocking "art". While the article makes mention of the film "Innocence of Muslims" (and repeats the lie that the film lead to riot) it features no Muhammed images or other anti-Islamic "art".
Exactly what I figured. Insult Christians and they pray for you. Insult islamic pig molesters and they behead you.
“new”??? They have been doing it for decades!
