The war of the 12 Cartoons has begun:
Cartoonist: We don't apologize for opinions --"This is a war of two cultures, it's really a war, and it's really important that in the West we stand up for these hard-won freedoms and that we stand up to bullying and intimidation in the name of sensitivity,"
ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Yesterday (Thursday) Mullah Krekar, the alleged leader of the Islamist group Ansar al-Islam who has been living in Norway as a refugee since 1991, said that the publication of the Muhammad cartoons was a declaration of war. The war has begun, he told Norwegian journalists. Mr Krekar said Muslims in Norway are preparing to fight. It does not matter if the governments of Norway and Denmark apologize, the war is on.
Religion Of Throwing Gas On The Fire
The Islamic Society in Denmark throws in a few fakes for those not sufficiently offended by the original Mohammed cartoons.

In Norway, Muslim advocacy groups are pushing for anti-blasphemy laws. link: 91 comments "Muslims denying Christ's divinity and believing in what Christians consider a "false prophet" would be "blasphemous" too, wouldn't it? F*cking idiots. If they're so desperate to be protected from differing belief systems, they should go back to their home countries - " After reading some of posts on the larger Norwegian forums, it's apparent that many Norwegians are steaming mad and probably shocked and frightened after seeing their flag burned, death threats made and seeing mobs of lunatic Muslims threatening them on their tv screens. Norway's expelling Mullah Krekar (former head of Ansar al-Islam of Northern Iraq) who now lives in Norway. Yesterday Brussels journal reported him as saying "The War has begun" meaning the war between Islam and the rest of civilization. Today the Beeb reports he's getting the boot from Norway: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/2781969.stm
The All India Muslim Personal Law Board has released a package of social reforms, and they all have to do with women: Dont work with men, dont go shopping, and cover your entire body. ...time for Islam break with the 7th century... If you want to watch a totally kick-ass woman from Bahrain, go to http://www.memritv.o... and search for "Ghada Jamshir," then watch the clip. All I can say is wow.
Do what we say and nobody gets hurt. link: 225 comments
Victor Davis Hanson has one of his periodic lunacy watch pieces, the view from 20,000 feet over an increasingly whacked-out world: Three Pillars of Wisdom.
Ever since that seminal death sentence handed down to Salman Rushdie by the Iranian theocracy, the Western world has incrementally and insidiously accepted these laws of asymmetry. Perhaps due to what might legitimately be called the lunacy principle (these people are capable of doing anything at anytime), the Muslim Middle East can insist on one standard of behavior for itself and quite another for others. It asks nothing of its own people and everything of everyone elses, while expecting no serious repercussions in the age of political correctness, in which affluent and leisured Westerners are frantic to avoid any disruption in their rather sheltered lives. link: 41 comments
Heres a revealing comment in a story about the dread cartoons of blasphemy at the Washington Post, from an editor of a Pakistani newspaper: Tension Rises Over Cartoons of Muhammad.
But critics argued that publishers should be more discerning in the battles they choose over freedom of expression. This is the sort of thing that will feed into al Qaeda, alienating and angering a lot of educated young people, Najam Sethi, editor of Pakistans Daily Times and Friday Times, said in a telephone interview from Lahore.
Sethi and others see a double standard at work. People who question some of the facts of the Holocaust are ostracized; most publishers are so sensitive they wont even get into the argument, Sethi said. A degree of censorship is imposed that is not articulated in this case.
Its an interesting glimpse of a completely non-rational mindset, that can equate Holocaust denial with political cartoons. It isnt surprising at all to see this kind of mental dysfunction combined with Jew-hatred. link: 230 comments
Combat Stupidity with Humiliation
Logic has no effect on Muslims. Doing nothing means destruction of mankind. It seems we are in an impasse.

Check out this capture from my SiteMeter:
click to enlarge
The circled entries are hits to my blog from Goodle image searches looking for the Muhammad cartoons.
This has been going on for days now. Sometimes it is a solid page of Google search hits. What used to be normally dead times, early morning hours from 2am to 6am Eastern, are now a constant buzz of search activity.
The protesters, people who want to make sure the Prophet is never mocked, satirized, or disrespected, have succeeded in making sure more people have looked at the image of the Prophet and laughed than if they had simply kept silent.
Now here's a thought. I wonder how many of those Google hits are from good Muslims surreptitiously taking a peek at the forbidden.
So much laughter to be punished.
So many people to behead.
And it's getting worse hour by hour.

IRAN: 74 LASHES FOR WOMEN WHO FAIL TO WEAR THE HIJAB--Islam proves once again what an obscene, and revolting religion it is. Islam should be banned in the US becuase it is incompatible with our values. Freedom of religion should not include a religion that has absolutely no tolerance for anyone other than its own demented practitioners.

The State Department Promotes Islamist Organizations
February 25, 2004
Not only does the U.S. government build mosques but it posts official pages on the Department of State website celebrating "Muslim Life in America" - something no other religion in the United States benefits from. In addition to the predictable feel-good writing and photography, the website also has a bibliography with select readings, Internet sites, and nongovernmental organizations. All of the sections hold interest, but the organizational one does most of all. A close look finds that the State Department provides links to and thereby endorses groups that the federal government has either effectively shut down (the American Muslim Council), is currently investigating (Islamic Society of North America), or has arrested multiple employees of (Council on American-Islamic Relations). Additionally, other organizations on the list (Council on Islamic Education, Islamic Institute, Muslim Public Affairs Council) were long ago exposed as sympathetic to militant Islam.
It's hard to win a war, you know, when one's foreign ministry publicly endorses the enemy's friends and agents. It's dispiriting and confusing. So, how about it, State Department, and take down the offending web pages? (February 25, 2004)
February 26, 2005 update: Quite the reverse: rather than take the offending names down, the State Department chooses to endorse Islamists in a new way. On a page listing "Selected Non-Governmental Organizations," the only two Muslim ones honored to be named are CAIR and MPAC.
Bibliography - Conspiracy Theories,
Cartoon row: Sunday Times gagged (Courts begin the censorship of Western civilization)
HAMAS Targets Spain (via manipulation of children's books)--jihadists believe they have a natural right not only to Israel but to Spain.
Merkel Likens Iran Threat to Nazi Era (Says "Iran Has Blatantly Crossed the Red Line")
Child's tale led to clash of cultures (The twisting path to Islamic idiocy) --This article gives a very good recapping of this entire sorry debacle.
Islamists are protesting in London again this morning...
Free Speech = Cheap Insults
It look like they're realizing the PR nightmare they created for themsleves.

Thousands of angry Syrian demonstrators storm the Danish Embassy in Damascus, Syria on Saturday, Feb. 4, 2006 and set fire to the embassy building in protest of offensive caricatures of Islams prophet.
Wretchard is awesome
Yet the cartoon crisis has been cruelest to radical Islam because it has upset the timetable for the slow demographic conquest of Europe. It forced the crisis before the time was ripe to win an outright trial of strength. And it has deranged the carefully crafted plan to hold Europe politically neutral while the Islamists concentrated their force on their most dangerous enemy, the United States. Unless the Islamists can reverse or at least pause the process of confrontation it will find itself engaged on two fronts, against Europe and the United States simultaneously...

WHERE ARE THE FREEDOM-LOVING PROGRESSIVES?
Funny you should ask. They are in DC with Al Sharpton and the World Can't Wait organization demanding that Bush resign.
This didn't get much play in the MSM:
Car bombs have exploded outside the Vatican embassy and near four churches in Iraq, killing at least three.
Like every other newspaper in the US, the Washington Post is seemingly afraid to comment on the cartoon jihad; today they finally printed an editorial, buried in their Style section, and its a great example of not getting it: Clash Over Cartoons Is a Caricature Of Civilization. (Hat tip: Bubbaman.) Anyone who has really seen the sort of fare published regularly in Arab newspapers knows that the Washington Posts equation of the Danish cartoons with Arab antisemitic hatred is not just wrong, its flat out stupid.08:47 AM PST | link: 31 commentsSatirical images prompt debate over censorship-Media avoid upset by not reprinting cartoons on Islam

Methinks it is appropriate to reevaluate our priorities manifest in our nuclear target lists. Instead of Russia, we might reallocate some of those coveted positions to Syria.

The Collaborators
Jeff Goldstein;
[S]uddenly, free speech is not a universal right worthy of the crafting of puppet heads and the defacing of Starbucks windows, but instead is a culture-specific gift that needs to be filtered through the religious precepts of the culture of the Other. Unless, of course, that Other happens to be, say, Evangelical Christians. In which case, such extremists MUST BE SHOUTED DOWN with free speech. Pretzel logic, clearlyand the dilemma that is at the root of an incoherent philosophical system that favors the sociology of group identity over the universality of individual rights. Ironically, George Bush, each time he argues that freedom is universal, is acting in a manner far more progressive than self-styled progressive activists.
Again: note the crux of the debate, as framed by the voices for Muslim protest, and take care to listen for the broad-stroked rhetoricusually more carefully crafted by those who have perfected its vocabulary, cadence, emotional appeals, and key wordsof the tolerance movement, the justificating force that cynically underpins all identity politics:
"The 12 cartoons ... have caused an uproar in the Muslim world and drawn a new cultural battle over freedom of speech and respect of religions."
Translation: Free speech is good so long as it tolerates our right, as an identity group, to dictate which free speech is authentic and allowable. Otherwise, yknow, we get to torch shit.
You'll see some (though not all are guilty) of that pretzel logic
on display here, including an admonishment to those republishing cartoons that we are "not being helpful". One suspects that, if sent back in time some 60ish years,
such people would have been completely at home in "occupied" France.
Damian Penny has more on these voices of surrender. (At this rate, how long will it be before we begin to hear calls demanding Salman Rushdie apologize to his offended Islamist "critics" ?)

The Islamic assassin who butchered Dutch filmmaker Theo Van Gogh on an Amsterdam street, Mohammed Bouyeri, says the prophet justifies his deed. link: 140 comments " Theo Van Gogh's final words "Can't we talk about this" will be on Europe's tombstone."
Well, the last few weeks have been quite clarifying, haven't they?First, Hammas wins and doesn't back down from their main selling point...kill the Jews.And now Europe is awakened from its slumber and forced to confront the true nature of the people who have been moving into the neighborhood over the last few years.Yes, it's getting ugly but it was going to anyway. Now at least no one can claim they weren't warned. Oh lovely. Petah Tikva (Tel Aviv stabbing)
Seems a few folk were just riding in a minivan taxi, ...and some Ishmaeli decided to 'show his feelings'....5, some very serious.
An excellent point by Charles Moore, who wonders why there were suddenly so many Danish flags ready to be torched in Islamic nations: If you get rid of the Danes, youll have to keep paying the Danegeld.
How this network has operated would make a cracking piece of investigative journalism.
Yes, indeed it would; but thats the kind of investigative journalism Western media seems to have absolutely no interest in pursuing. link: 60 comments | So that do ya think the ROPers wanna do to this guy? Paliwood anyone? a lot of what Islamists do is staged Excellent essay I found linked at anti-idiotarian rottie: Mohammed was a Rapist, Child Molester, Murder, Thief, and a Liar
The cartoon stuff is just window dressing. The Liberal Left press is COMPLETELY unreliable as news and thoroughly corrupt. This is all propaganda, planned a long time ago and set into motion according to timetable. One hopes Wretchard is correct that their timing is off, they stuck too soon and too confidently, not expecting their enemies to fight back, making the same mistake as all fascists dictators have made, that free citizens can't fight. They can fight, once they understand the stakes, and fight very very well. I am convinced the Paris Riots were planned. I believe Al Qaeda is sophisticated enough to have added crowd control to their repetoire. Hitler did it, and he is their mentor.
I don't know if this has been posted before, so many threads, so little time. The Copenhagen Post
An Al-Qaeda affiliated group issued a grim warning to Danish citizens on Thursday "You will see your own blood as an answer, and that is revenge from our prophet."

Backhoe, I made this graphic when Newsweek was falsely accusing our troops of mistreating the Koran in Gitmo. I thought you may like it added to these fine resources on this thread. The boot on the Koran in the screen cap below belongs to a Muslim terrorist using it as a pressure release detonator to kill over 300 kids.

Heres another source where you can view the dread cartoons of blasphemy, at Human Events Online.
Islam, a religion of peace? Video Gallery
I'm following
Michelle Malkin's lead on "
First, they came for..." which is a short video clip on the atrocities of Islamic extremist hate and control. Below I have a list of video links regarding Islam, Muslims and terrorists.
Submission, Part I - Film Clip from short Submission (2004). This metaphorical look at the harsh realities of the lives of Muslim women in the Netherlands got filmmaker Theo van Gogh assassinated November 2, 2004 for producing this clip. Clip is 3 minutes long. (Or download the complete version
here - 15.5MB, 11min 34 seconds).
Muslim community in America - Take a look at the Muslim community in Bloomington, a few weeks after a hate crime and the wave of extremist actions in London. Your average red headed, caucasian American could be a Muslim follower. See how the Muslim community has infiltrated America. There are an estimated 6-8 million Muslims embracing over 300 community organizations and professional organizations in North America according to
Islamic Society of North America. 4min and 50 seconds long. RealPlayer required.
Muslims in America shortly after 9/11 and how many fear for their lives. Some take up self defense class. In this clip, one Muslim condemned the 9/11 attack. 21MB, 1 min and 47 seconds.
Jews for Allah. How one Jewish person converted to Islam. Claims that Islam is the one perfect religion for everyone. Hold on to your lunch. 2MB, 7min 48seconds.
Stones for Apostates (
WARNING! VERY GRAPHIC!). Stoning to death is a cruel insane Islamic punishment given to people who are married but still voluntarily have sex outside marraige. This punishment was ordered by the "merciful" Prophet, who ofcourse was the messenger of the "merciful" Allah. Many hadith, including Sahih Bukhari give proof that Stoning was ordered and practiced by Muhammed, for example: Volume 2, Book 23, Number 413: Narrated 'Abdullah bin 'Umar : The Jew brought to the Prophet a man and a woman from amongst them who have committed (adultery) illegal sexual intercourse. He ordered both of them to be stoned (to death), near the place of offering the funeral prayers beside the mosque." 2.2MB - 15 minutes, 30 seconds
Remember the
London and Madrid attack. 1min and 32sec
Remember 9/11. Videos...take your pick.
Religion of peace?
Until Pigs Fly, Protect America and the world's freedom of speech.
