Now the MSM prefers the Muslims? The MSM aren`t my heroes but, isn`t that a bit of a stretch?

One of the Mohammed 'cartoons' that the troublemaking Danish Imam Akhmad Akkari ran around the Mideast inciting riots with by falsely claiming was published by Jyllands-Posten.

The original photograph from a French Pig Squealing Contest article on MSNBC's website

C'mon, how can you seriously propose that putting together a little blurb like I just did here in ten minutes exposing some of the Islamic hypocrisy and troublemaking is too much for the US MSM to handle? That's just pathetic.

The fact that Muslim organizations and the Muslim street is swallowing this idiotic pig$#!+ from their Imams is further proof, if any is needed, that Islam is the world's most retrograde and degenerative religion.

You completely ignore my point, how does insulting the crazies and uniting their idiot followers help us defeat them?

Heh-heh. I wish Bush would take advantage of this and announce to the world:

"I am pleased to say that the American media were responsive to my demand that they not print these offensive cartoons."

The crazies deserve only to be insulted, publicly discredited, and ultimately put down, not appeased or ignored as was tried with Hitler.

Sorry if that truth is not acceptable to you.

It unites the West. These crazies will have nuclear weapons in the near future. When do I need to start wearing the burka? FYI, the University of Malaysia began this year to demand none Muslim women wear the veil. Malaysia's population has many Muslims but there are also a very significant Buddhist and Hindu populations. In France Muslim men throw acid in the faces of women Muslim or none Muslim if they are not wearing the veil. That is why Chiraq (sp. intentional) outlawed the veil. And now in Denmark you can make fun of the Jewish and Christian faiths but not the Muslim faith because we are afraid of "crazies" rampaging through the streets of their hell holes.

America needs to play the valuable role that Europe has provided during our conflicts with Islam. We need to step between them and say:

"Listen, Islam, just because some Europeans drew pictures showing Mohammed with a pig snout and laugh at you behind your back for being a buncha camel-molesting pedophile-worshippers is NOOO reason to go throwing rocks at them. And Europe, just because some Islamo-fascists actively target your women for rape, murdered a highly regarded artist, and threaten to kill any politician or journalist that does not adhere to Sharia law is no reason for you to get all bent out of shape when they riot in your streets and burn down your embassies.

So...we're going to offer a little gift of this gasoline to the both of you, since you seemed to have used up a lot of in Paris a couple months ago, and we're going to leave you to work things out, and go home to our jiffy-pop. Ciao."

(Just some very bitter humor, folks. I'm hoping that some of our sanctimonious European friends are beginning to get a clue as to what their backstabbing of America has bought them)

but reporters and editors are traditionally folks who crave adventure, if not danger.

"But,its a lot more fun to sit at home in our safe houses, and pontificate about things like losing our right of freedom of the press and freedom of speech."

Believe me, it's no "fun" at all to "sit at home in our safe houses" and acknowledge that many Americans like you don't "get it" at all in terms of what we are up against.

"Malaysia's population has many Muslims but there are also a very significant Buddhist and Hindu populations."

In Malaysia, everyone born there is automatically considered Muslim, and it is illegal--and ENFORCED--to change your religion at any point in your life.

And Bybybill accuses OTHERS of thinking "its a lot more fun to sit at home in our safe houses, and pontificate about things like losing our right of freedom of the press and freedom of speech."

Big deal, huh? So the mullahs can dictate what we say and publish. As long as they aren't mad at us, it's all good to that way of thinking.

After we all renounce our individuality and become Muslims that, of course won't be enough either. Next we'll have to adhere to the particular flavor of Islam that will keep the mullahs happy.

That poster should change their screen name to "byebyefreedom", or "hihibossmanmullah" might be even better.

For you, I`ll have my Muslim pals let you get away without wearing either a veil or Burka, except on my birthday, of course.
