British Muslims burn a Danish flag during a demonstration outside the Danish embassy over the publication of cartoons of the Prophet Mohammad, in London February 3, 2006. The cartoons, which first appeared in a Danish newspaper, have sparked outrage across the Islamic world, although Britain's normally provocative newspapers have so far refused to publish them.

Is this picture for real? Wouldn't they say 11/9 and not 9/11 in Europe?

You should have given us a Barf Alert!

[magslinger]

Thanks for the new tagline.

Wow, Who'd thought that the Yemenis would be more sane than the British mooslims. I don't really have a problem with people going out calling for a boycott, calling for people to be beheaded is another thing.

Is anyone over there upset about this??

[michigander]

Is this picture for real?

Take a look.

[Cruz]

Insanity ping, Allah be praised.

[michigander]

Isn't there a joke that explains the reason why?

Saddam Hussein calls George Bush to complain about Star Trek.

He says “I have seen every episode and I have seen black people, Asian people, klingons, in fact every species imaginable, but I have never ever seen a Muslim on Star Trek, explain to me why not.”

George W. replies, “It’s set in the future you idiot!”

Or, maybe the one literate one in the group had to do all the signs for the 100 that can't read or write English.

I enlarged the bottom picture, and the signs look like they were written by one person, but the lettering is pretty seamless, even the ones in the background. My guess (for what it's worth) is that the signs are genuine.

That there was only one English literate one there, as you suggested, is quite likely.

The really BAD thing is that these people are being driven to a frenzy by their OWN PEOPLE!

There have been a lot of threads over the last few days, but I've gathered some pretty interesting facts:

1) One of their fearless leaders was saying one thing on Arabic TV while saying the exact opposite on English TV

and

2) Another 'leader' (not sure if it was the same one or a different one) actually added the three most hateful cartoons before they were reprinted.

These people are going to kill us or die trying while being the epitome of *useful idiots*!

That is why this will be a war, a war unlike any the world has seen. I firmly believe these people will manage to detonate a nuclear weapon somewhere in the west before this decade is over. It's not a pretty picture, but these people are fanatical.

You have made me stop and reflect. You are right. Killing 1 billion actual or potential killers or supporters is a monumental chore.
I have been called intolerant for embracing the kill-them-before-they-kill-us option.

I have reconsidered.
When the war comes, I propose that we give them all 72 hours to return to the islamic paradise of their choice so long as it's not in the Americas and Europe. No exceptions, no negotiations and no extensions.

Then kill every muslim remaining after 72 hours pass. Is that better?

I don't think we can afford to waste another 25 years for you to educate yourself.

Pub ... From NJ's profile:

I tend to be a realist with a twist of idealism for flavor

Ignorance will always be bliss

Oh, and NJ, let me help you clean up the quote at the bottom of your profile's narcissistic blather so you won't look quite so silly:

My answer to the absurd phrase, "the (US) Constitution Declaration of Independence is not a suicide pact":

"Let's think about this for a moment - a group of farmers, lawyers, and businessmen sign their names to an open declaration of treason against the Crown, which controls the largest empire and the most powerful military the world has ever seen, and whose punishment for treason is generally death, and it's *NOT* a suicide pact?! I just love that one. Had the revolution turned out the way that any logically thinking person would have expected (it certainly hadn't completely succeeded just yet - see: War of 1812), every man whose name appeared on that Constitution Declaration of Independence would have been executed to serve as an example of what happens to traitors. These men put liberty far above their personal safety in the face of nearly certain death - but hey, it's not a suicide pact or anything." - NJ_Gent (2004)

[Froufrou]

Yes, I'd thought of that aspect. Small comfort in thinking we'd be like them.

[semaj]

Now that's funny!

[longtermmemmory]

You also forget that most of the jumping and yelling and waiving is only when the camera is on or pointed their way.
(see sheehan's fake picture 1 and 2 which exposed the blatent posing)

I think the media sould just take some images when none of those wackos are looking to expose the posturing.

[sheik yerbouty]

You are most welcome!

[CygnusXI]

It is correct to say 9/11.
Even though Europe puts the day first, the attack of 9/11 is known worldwide as "911, or 9/11".

When Muslims are outraged it's big news and we should do something.

When people in this nation are outraged about Muslim shenanigans, we're all quickly reminded by the unbiased MSM that we deserve it.

[Publius6961]

For what it's worth, a small number of news organizations carried a story out of... India, maybe?, a few weeks ago about an enormous number of Imams banding together to call on all their followers to reject violence and turn in possible terrorists living in their communities to the police.

Not worth a bucketful of spit for two reasons:

First, granted, our MSM doesn't carry it; but why doesn't al jazeera?

Second, this happened in India, not a member of the islamic nations consortium, whatever it's called --- Killers United?

[TheClintons-STILLAnti-American]

One thing we can always count on from Islam.

They are always eager to show how whacked their religion really is.

If Sheehan converts I just pray she will wear a burkha. I'm tired of seeing her ugly mug.
