Quote of the Day by kayak

[Experiment 6-2-6]

We have run cartoons making funs of priests because of their actions in the abuse scandal – but not because of their religion.

This statement underscores the irony of this cartoon. The editors felt they couldn't run it because it's message DID center around a religion of "peace"... At least they didn't wimp out and apologize. Good on 'em!

Meega, Nala Kweesta!

Crybabies! If Islam is such a strong religion, why are Muslims always whining?

[Fabozz]

"He won the 1988 Pulitzer Prize, mainly for cartoons about the scandal surrounding televangelist Jim Bakker."

I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess that his Pulitzer-winning work was not uniformly respectful of Bakker's Pentacostal faith. Luckily for Marlette, the Pentacostalists didn't have a well-oiled attack machine ready to call forth an e-mail jihad.

"If Islam is such a strong religion, why are Muslims always whining?"

Islam's strength is that it was founded by a warlord, a man who understood strategy and knew to strike the enemy's weaknesses. Westerners' great weaknesses are a morbid fear of death and a pathological need to be liked, and it is exactly there that the global jihad hits us—the former through random acts of terrorism, the latter through grievance campaigns like CAIR. But make no mistake, those are two pincers of the same jaws, and their shared goal is to consume us.

If peaceful and tolerant muslims want a better public image, perhaps the should practice peace and tolerance.

Judging by muslim actions, they are neither peaceful or tolerant. Witness slaughter of innocent peasant Christians in Sudan, Indonesia, Philippines--far and removed from Israel, or from America.

So to be convincing, CAIR and all of the rest of these mouthpieces for the violent spread of islam, should renounce and condemn any and all acts of violence, by their co-religionists.

The silence is deafening. The cartoonist and the paper are to be commended for their truth_seeking.

[truth_seeker]

"But make no mistake, those are two pincers of the same jaws, and their shared goal is to consume us."

Two DEADLY pincers, nonetheless. The propaganda arm of islam SHOULD be challenged at every turn.

[per loin]

I'd certainly enjoy seeing Muhammad drawn by more of our cartoonists.

[BradyLS]

Ryder Truck? Muhammed would rather a jihadist drive a Ford Pinto!

[The Raven]

On such short notice.....this is the best I could do.

You get my bravery award for posting this.

The little nuclear symbol on the rental truck with what appears to be a driver of middle eastern descent and a seemingly atomic weapon protruding out has caused a good deal of PC pressure to come down on not only the original author of this story, but also to those propogating it.

Good luck!

[river rat]

I think Doug got it wrong....

There is far more probability that, if he could -- Muhammad would attempt to drive a Nazi car.. something from Germany...
Something built in a country that shared/shares their hatred for Jews...

Semper Fi

Here he comes now !

From the Moslems' complaints I suppose it would be safe to assume that editorial cartoons in Moslem/Arabic newspapers are never disrespectful of, say, the Jewish religion.

[Lockbox]

"Some enemies of Islam have been trying to tarnish the image of Muhammad just as they publish misleading information about and wrong interpretation of the Holy Quran,"

This quote is a joke! No matter what others will do, it is nothing compared to what their own followers have done. What a bunch of A$$holes.

I close with “Death to the Believers”

[TLBSHOW]

In a phone interview, Marlette told WorldNetDaily he would not apologize, though he has received more than 4,500 e-mails from angry Muslims, with some threats of death and mutilation.


The Tallahassee Democrat also has declined to apologize, but primarily because it did not publish the cartoon in its print edition. The drawing appeared inadvertently on its website, however, before being pulled, according to the paper's executive editor.

BUMP

ISLAM IS A CULT OF DEATH RUN BY KILLERS!

[Kay Soze]

Islam is heavily populated by serial killers.

A small minority of them but enough to require the removal of islam from the world's consciousness.
