Pssst...Canine American taking umbrage whilst reading the koran.

ROME, May 24, 2005 (IslamOnline.net & News Agencies) - Italian journalist Oriana Fallaci will face trial for insulting Islam in her latest work, a court in northern Italy ruled Tuesday, May 24.
The court turned down a request by prosecutors to have the case, filed by the president of the Muslim Union of Italy, Adel Smith, thrown out, reported Agence France-Presse (AFP).
They magistrates now have until Thursday, May 26, to formally charge the controversial writer, infamous for her provocative style of writing.
Smith said Fallaci's last book "La forza della ragione," which translates as The Force of Reason, contains “words that are without doubt offensive toward Islam.”
The 74-year-old writer, who lives in New York, wrote that Europe is turning into “an Islamic province, an Islamic colony” and that “to believe that a good Islam and a bad Islam exist goes against all reason.”
The lawyer for the Muslim Union, Ugo Fanuzzi, said she would have to answer first to the charge of insulting a faith, but he did not exclude that she could face charges of inciting hatred of religions.
Polemic
Fallaci was sued in 2002 over her anti-Islam book “Rage and Pride.”
Two weeks after the 9/11 attacks, Fallaci published her strongly pro-American and anti-Islam book “Rage and Pride” in which she ridiculed some verses of the Noble Qur’an.
She was sued in 2002 over the provocative book and accused of violating anti-racist laws. The case was dismissed on a technicality.
Fallaci was criticized over her 9/11 polemic by anti-racist organizations and famed Italian journalist Tiziano Terzani, who wrote an open letter to her in Corriere della Sera.
Islam has been the subject of a series of derogatory movies, writings, comments and TV shows and even racist attacks from army officers and politicians across Europe and the United States.
But thanks to an immediate and astute action from the leaders of the Muslim minorities, many of the offenders have swallowed their anti-Islam remarks and sometimes apologized.
After having his BBC1 chat show suspended following an intense lobbying by the British Muslim minority, Robert Kilroy-Silk regretted racist comments he made in a syndicated Sunday Express column.
The Chicago-based syndicated radio commentator Paul Harvey, the most listened-to radio personality in the US, once claimed that Islam “encourages killing.”
But after receiving hundreds of angry messages from Muslims, he backtracked on the defamatory comments, praising Islam as a “religion of peace.”
William Boykin, the US Deputy Undersecretary of Defense for Intelligence, had also claimed that Muslims’ God “was an idol,” and that “our spiritual enemy will only be defeated if we come against them in the name of Jesus.”
Shortly after his comments came to surface, the White House was besieged by demands to reprimand the highly-decorated general.
Representative John Conyers Jr. (D-MI) presented a resolution urging President George W. Bush to “clearly censure or reassign” Boykin.
Following intense pressures from Muslim advocacy groups, the general apologized, arguing his remarks “had been taken out of context.”
"When legislation has to be passed to prevent someone from speaking out against something, shouldn't we question WHY it is necessary. If what they are being accused of isn't true, then why can't they just present the evidence to prove the accusations are false?"
Well...first of all, I think we must remember that islam operates on provocation. Muslims have to wait until they are attacked before they can do you harm. (Fight back.) That's what it says in their terror manuals, and muzzies follow the koran and hadith to the letter. ('Cos that's what mo said and did, 1400 years ago.) Therefor, if you were to flush a koran down the toilet and a muzzie saw you do it, he could accuse you of desecrating their most holy of holies, and you would/might say that's a load of BS, and perhaps (if he's lucky) you might slap his face, or horror of horrors, you might even say that mo was a rapist. Get it?
Now you are fair game. You can be attacked.
Someone in their 'wisdom' advised the government that it might be more simple to fine or lock up a few (infidel)citizens for 'hate-speech' to keep a lid on things; we can't have people like us who have taken the time to educate themselves to what islam really is, running around yelling the truth, can we? Lord knows what that might lead to! (A whole lot more toilet-flushings of the koran for one thing, and bingo! six million whining muslims might bring forth a few hundred thousand nasty surprises that go BANG! and the US begins to look like Israel, and we can't have that, now can we?)
Neither can the government openly admit they made a mistake allowing the muzzies into our societies to start with; besides, it's probably part of a deal the Left cooked up with the UN anyway. (How many are still being accepted into the US and Australia every day? No one tells us, right?)
There's really only one way to address this issue. Get a big mouth. If and when it becomes a crime to tell the truth because someone is afraid of the truth, it's time for a whole lot of people to VOLUNTEER TO GO TO JAIL. They can't lock us ALL up!
Now, when do you think is a good time to fight back? While you still have the advantage, or after it's too late?
I'll take some RAGE to go with my PRIDE thank you.
Ummm I'm going to have to take umbrage at your insulting comparison to the excrement of "Canine-Americans".
No Fido or Fifi deserves to have their deposits ridiculed mischaracterised, or mocked by comparison to one of the vilest substances in the known universe. "Doggy-doo", as it has heretofore been popularly known, is at least somehow useful in practical applications. The kur'an, even when used in desperate moments as toilet tissue, is a known chafing agent, and irritant!
As a representative for those deeply offended Canine-Americans, I demand an immediate apology...and a retraction...and a contribution to the local Canine American animal shelter...and you must start a fund for and remain a sponsor of a special park where C.-A.'s can frolic and deposit to their hearts' content, free from such prejudice.
All of your fireplugs are belong to us! Woof!
A.A.C.
is a {/sarcasm tag} really needed? After all these are no more ridiculous than CAIR or MPAC's demands!

Pssst...Canine American taking umbrage whilst reading the koran.
Just sickening, what this woman is going thru. Thanks for the ping.
Infidel Dog, I cannot think of a single FReeper more appropriate to respond to my comment. My apologies to you and to AAC for my profound insult to Canine-Americans for comparing their noble excrement with the most vile Unholy Book.
We the people...
in order to reform a more perfect union...
Must begin an earnest, full scale, civilian INFILTRATION of ALL mosques in America.
Now.
And inform our neighbors, and our government authorities.
And...?
A.A.C.
It is more likely they will prefer shi'ite to worms..
I'm for it.
Jeff
Worms...shi'ite...pork...it's all the same to me provided the dying follows hard on the eating.
The Rage and the Pride was amazing. Life-changing.
I hope for an English translation of The Force of Reason to come out soon and I hope Oriana kicks a$$ at trial.
Exactly.
"And...?"
Armour on, Lances high, Swords out, Bows drawn, Shields front ... Eagles UP!
In order to successfully propagate their faith (dawah) they need to first silence any skeptics, who might pose troubling questions about the true nature of their religion.
They've tried-with varying degrees of success-to muzzle scholars and investigative journalists such as Steve Emerson, Rita Katz, Daniel Pipes, Muslim refuseniks such as Irshad Manji, Steven Schwarz-a Sufi convert and harsh critic of the dogma inherent to mindless Wahabbism-and Ibn Warraq-a literary pseudonym used to conceal his true identity-and those who have distinguished themselves in the field of arts & letters, such as philosopher Bernard Henri-Levy, the martyred director Theo Van Gogh, acclaimed French novelist Michel Houellebeq, and in this specific instance, anti-fascist writer and renowned journalist Orianna Falacci.
I just wish that the rest of you could have attended the screening of "The Road to Jenin"-a documentary that was created in response to the libelous calumnies lodged against the IDF in that patent forgery, "Jenin, Jenin"-which I attended several weeks ago.
You would have been astonished at the extent to which this one simple film-which was based entirely upon an underlying edifice of truth-provoked the Palestinian terror apparatus.
The director of the aforementioned film even went so far as using the independent judiciary of Israel-a state that he wants to see obliterated-to suppress the broadcast of The Road to Jenin.
The unmitigated hypocrisy of these Islamic fanatics is startling, when you stop to think about it.
-good times, G.J.P. (Jr.)
ROTFLMAO!!!
Thanks for playing along! ARF!
A.A.C.
1. It will focus a bright light on the cockeroaches that brought it.
2. It will bring a new audience to read her book.
3. Europe might actually have to face the evil in its midst. Now.
I am trying to stir interest in showing/promoting this film or Rehov's other film, "Holy Land: Christians in Peril", at a conservative film festival, The Liberty Film Festival.

I think it is an important answer to the media contamination.
