    Intense interest in the forbidden

    Excerpt:
    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. >>

  2. the cartoons that started this were lame. “we have no virgins left” is a little funny. hell, um heck, where are these virgins coming from and are they disposable? you can only be a virgin or a suicide bomber once. ‘course if the bombers come back as virgins then the more the merrier or..oh never mind

  3. I really hope this blogburst just overwhlems these nutjobs that think they can dicate to the world.
    Th burts will hopefully expose the massive hatred that motivates so much of the Islamic world. They look around, see how many centuries they are behind, how useless they are in science & technology, art & literatire and manifest their inferiority as hatred of the west.
    If they didn’t have oil, the world would ignore them like they ignore Castro and other failed regimes.
    The best weapon is too mock them, laugh at them and maybe they’ll wake up.
    Much cheaper & better weapon than the military

  4. Bah, I was posting Muslim Photoshops months ago, under the old Liberal regime, back when it was dangerous and uncool to do so. Here’s what happened:
    “Anonalogue is an outspoken heterosexist, religious biggot and Magic Card aficionado. He crosses lines. Heck, he spits on lines…He blatantly displays a picture of a Muslim man with a caption reading, �Ayatollah: I sodomized my 14 year old wife last night! Praise Allah! Special Report: Buggery and Islam. Is this Religion All About Butt Sex Or What?� Normally this type of disgusting and depraved behavior on a blog would be beneath notice…”
    http://jamesbowie.blogspot.com/2005/11/even-anonalogues-blatant-racism-and.html
    The funny part is that young James isn’t even old enough to recognise the “Muslim man” I photoshopped: Ayatollah Khomeini 🙂

  5. Thank goodness more and more newspapers and blogs (and thanks, Kate, for doing it) are publishing these cartoons.
    The Muslim community cannot act as totalitarian demagogues over the world. As noted, their reaction is not – cartoons about Western religions, or debate or whatever. It’s a reaction that says “Either you behave as we do, even in the West, even if you think and believe in different modes of life – or we’ll kill you”.
    They can claim death to their own people and claim that they have the right to control the thoughts and voices of Muslims, but, they have no right to any claims over our thought processes or behaviour.
    In the West, you can have plays about Jesus as gay, you can have obscene images of..etc, etc..and, you might get angry letters to the theatre, but, you don’t get people threatening to murder all people in the city where that play takes place, or simply..all people.
    The Muslim community has to grow up out of the medieval period, stop assuming ideological control over the entire world..and..allow dissent and debate among their own people.
    Above all- they have no right to dictate what others think and do..

  6. Having watched all the Fawlty Towers series over Xmas, I just can’t get “The Germans Are Coming” episode out of my mind when Basil Fawlty, after his jokes and wordplay fell flat with his German guests, exclaimed, “What NOT FUNNY!!! you’re joking”.
    A while back while reading The Legacy of Jihad (Andrew G. Bostom) I couldn’t shake the sense that Islam needs a good “Life of Brian” kind of film.
    What total jokers they are! Er, wrong word maybe?

  7. Boy, this is getting stupid.
    Virtually everyone of any authority in the West is currently bending over backwards to apologize (for the normal exercise of hard-won fundamental freedoms) to particularly vocal members of one cult.

  8. Well, the cartoons are pretty lame if you ask me. Kind of like Beavis & Butthead which I never thought too brilliant BUT, the turmoil it has produced is incredible. These guys are on a roll. Doesn’t matter what the perceived injustice, they will riot. Remember the alledged Koran thing in Gitmo? No proof but then as Jean of Cretien would say…” da proof is da proof and i knows da proof when I sees it” or something like that. And they are winning too. They have everyone walking on eggshells lest they might offend.
    How about starting a rumour that Bush has said that the sun will rise in the east and set in the west. Then the protests will be about how GWB is taking over the tasks of Allah.
    sigh…

  9. Whoops, didn’t mean to imply that you’re a newcomer to the free speech party Kate, you have bigger ****s than any of us. I was expressing a bit of puzzlement and disappointment, I guess. It’s not like Pym Fortuyn and Van Gogh just happened yesterday; it seems to continue a pattern of speaking out against political correctness only after the MSM – any MSM – gives the go-ahead.

    Religion Of Peace Rampages (Jylland-Posten Cartoon Fall Out)
    Euphoric Reality ^ | Feb 3, 2006 | Redhead Infidel
    Posted on 02/03/2006 7:55:32 PM PST by American Cabalist
    Need to catch up on the latest cultural jihad?? Here’s your one-stop source…
    The Religion of Peace is at it again!
    The Danish cartoons themselves are not really that horrifyin’ OR funny, IMHO. But the fury that has erupted around them is hilarious! I mean, we all saw these cartoons back in September when they first made a splash. No one ever thought we’d see WW3 because of it!!
    So why is Islamic fury building anew? To fan the flames of Muslim outrage, Danish Islamists fabricated their own blasphemies to pin on the Jyllands-Posten newspaper…

  11. The multi-cultural chickens of Europe are coming home to roost. Radical Islam scorns the culture of appeasement and view it rightfully so as a mark of weakness. The west had better realize that we are engaged in a battle that the Islamists view as a natural extension of the holy wars.
    Only in the nick of time did we rid ourselves of the weak kneed Libs who were willing to bend to the wims aof any and all special interest groups that made enough noise.
    Ontario would have accepted Sharia law for family court except for the feminists intervention. Special interest A trumps special interest B.
    We as a nation had best scrape the PC shit off our boots and start acting like the christian founded country we are lest the insanity of radical Islam take deeper root here.
    Recognize your enemy and act accordingly.
    Syncro

  12. Ironic isn’t it that these primitive nutcases go ballistic over rather bland cartoons – we aren’t talking a Maplethorpe’s Piss Christ done to Mohammed.
    The craven hypocrisy is that Islam insults the Jewish religion in newspapers and children’s textbooks daily. I’ve seen an Arab cartoon mocking the Pope.
    As always, Islam’s hurt feelings translate into physical threats and violence. Tolerance and an understanding of free speech in a secular democracy is beyond their comprehension. The multi-cultural moonbats will carefully instruct us again that just because Islam wants to annhilate us we should be accepting. After all, all cultures are equal.
    I salute the Danes for defending free speech while the burqa wearing editors at the NYT’s and WaPo hide under their desks.

  13. Perhaps western media should be showing the cartoons from the Islamic nations alongside the cartoons from Denmark. That may serve as an object lesson to these insane radical extremists that you can’t have it both ways.
    Man. It sure takes gaul (and a criminal mentality) to hide behind dark masks, brandish and shoot off machine guns, and threaten perfectly innocent people over something as silly and trivial as a few cartoons.
    If there was any law and order in the ME and Islamic countries, they would be disarming these ignorant hotheads and locking them up. Instead, they are free to roam about creating mayhem over any incident that provides the slightest excuse for their lunatic behaviour.

  14. I think what many Muslims are infuriated about is that infidels are creating IMAGES of MUHAMMAD. This is forbidden according to their teachings, good or bad connotations notwithstanding.
    They are going to have to get used to non Muslim artistic freedom of expression, because their reaction has guaranteed the proliferation of IMAGES of MUHAMMAD.
    To the non Muslim mind it is highly comic to watch their reaction, its like…surreal, like we’re viewing an archaic freeze frame of religious fanaticism stuck in the dark ages. It wouldn’t surprise me at all if we see fanatical suicide bombers targeting the Danish, French, and German MSM, and their embassies.

  15. “Sit right down and you’ll hear a tale,
    a tale of a fateful trip,
    it started at this tropic port aboard this tiny ship”
    😀

  16. I can understand the muslim world not wanting to make images of Muhammad. no problem. not my concern.
    But not wanting “the west” to make images like this..?
    and willing to go to such extremes to protect this?
    What’s next? we infidels need to know that pork is forbidden?
    The so called moderates of the muslim world… where are they? their silence on this issue is becoming noticeable.
    I have seen the “cartoons” in the muslim world drawn with images of jewish barbaric behavor, I shudder to think of what these muslims would do if this imagery was replaced with muslim caricature.
    Kudos to Kate and any other blogists who contribute to keeping our press, free.

  17. Canadian Muslim groups have criticized the over reaction of the Arab world for not understanding the fundamental democratic right of free expression. They are the moderate minority.
    Saudi Arabian, Iraqi, Pakistani,Palestinian, etc…, politicians and muftis have fallen for the extremist view hook, line, and sinker. Its no wonder that the people in these countries are making fools of theirselves in the streets.

  18. The problem is,these are fanatics, who have been roiled to a boiling point. If you wonder how could anyone get that fanatical, you only have to look back 2 weeks and wonder how ANYONE could be that fanatical to even vote for the Liberal party of Canada. It is a mind infected urge that is unswaying in its determination of what they want. It is sad.

  19. A religion failing its people and taking it out on an external party. Classic tactics. You reap what you sow. Can you keep the Imam’s down on the farm once they’ve played with an xbox? Didn’t think so. Brace yourselves for the final blow off.

  20. The Buddha bikini:
    Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia — The manufacturer of the controversial “Buddha bikini” swimsuit has apologized to Buddhists who have written in to complain about the product. Ondademar have also said that they have pulled the offending outfit out from the market.
    http://www.buddhistnews.tv/current/ondademar-270404.php
    Bangkok, April 21: A multi-coloured Victoria’s Secret swimsuit with an image of the Buddha on the bikini top is upsetting many deeply traditional Thais who want its US makers to take it off the shelves.
    “We are offended and we will have to tell them we are offended,” said Deputy Prime Minister Wissanu Krea-Ngam, who is also in charge of Buddhist affairs.
    The paper, which said it was alerted to the racy poolside outfit by a Thai woman who spotted it in an American summer clothing catalogue, said the swimsuit was “too much” and “hurt the hearts of Buddhists”.
    http://www.expressindia.com/fullstory.php?newsid=30628
    Colombo – Sri Lankan police and customs officials have been ordered to seize Buddha Bar music and bikinis with Buddha images, officials said on Thursday.

    The monk told the court that the commercial exploitation of the religious leader’s image had hurt the feelings of Buddhists who constitute nearly 70 percent of the nation’s 19 million people.”

  21. 10th century religion, 10th century mentality, 10th century reality. Shear brute force is the only thing that mindset understands. I really never understood Israel and their brutal treatment of the Palestinians but I sure as hell do now.

  22. “All their rage and anger is just for the cameras.”
    We could only wish, but I don’t think so. They are in the process of organizing a “DAY OF ANGER” to show us infidels that we must abide by their proscription against creating images of Muhammad, or else. This situation has yet to climax, they’ve worked themselves into a primeval frenzy and there is no reasoning with them. However, we must stick to our own principles of free expression. I’m thinking of creating a website dedicated to the free expression of images of Muhammad, I’d call it “IMAGES OF MUHAMMAD.COM” or “ALLAH’S BREAKDANCING MAIN HOMEYBOY.COM” or something of that nature, up-dated daily of course.

  23. Soheib Bencheikh, Islamic scholar and former mufti of Marseille, France said today: �If Muslims want to live besides people of other faiths, other philosophies, in a space that is neither religious nor non-religious, where all are welcome, they must be prepared to be shocked from time to time.�
    What this episode has revealed, yet again, is the irrationality and hatred at the heart of hard-core Islamic extremism.

  24. There was a good article in the National Post on Thurs., Jan. 26 – Holland Inverted by:Abigail R. Esman, The New Republic
    http://www.canada.com/nationalpost/news/issuesideas/story.html?id=a311f97d-ebaf-49bf-9ced-4322198628e6&p=3 It has an interesting and somewhat prophetic conclusion. The timing of all of this is interesting considering Holland is looking at Denmark’s highly restrictive immigration policies. Not restrictive enough maybe. Ditto Canada, France and many other door mats.

  25. “Soheib Bencheikh, Islamic scholar and former mufti of Marseille, France said today: �If Muslims want to live besides people of other faiths, other philosophies, in a space that is neither religious nor non-religious, where all are welcome, they must be prepared to be shocked from time to time.�”
    Reads like Derrida, good to see.

  26. By the way, there was a real eye opener in the latest edition of The National Interest. “Terror and the Fifth Republic” by Alexis Debat. It talks mostly about France dealing with Algerian terrorists. I for one would support a policy where every Algerian immigrant was rounded up and sent back to the Sahara. Just to be sure you know. Oh and take a few Moroccans with you. What the hell, a few Jamaicans also. Just the ones with handguns. I’m sure they aren’t hunting pheasant in Saskatchewan.
    “Ten bombs targeted public squares and the transportation system. But French counter-terrorism services were able to roll up these cells in under four months.” Sound like 2004? Hardly. Try 1996. Fascinating read.

  27. What would a space that is neither religious nor non-religious be like? Better yet, the gentleman should have said ‘a space that is religious and non-religious, where all are welcome and tolerated.’

  28. “What would a space that is neither religious nor non-religious be like?” How about, secular? Religion and politics don’t mix which is why I’m awful glad the more chipper branch of the Conservatives kept their mouths shut in the election campaign.
    Tour Mongolia, you’ll find out what a non-religious society looks like. Mind you the Jahova’s are building some pretty impressive churches there due to lack of competition.

  29. “What would a space that is neither religious nor non-religious be like?” How about, secular?”
    Secular is non-religious.

  30. george “it’s good we have the nukes”
    So do they, Pakistan has nukes and a radical islamic segment that the government is struggling to contain.
    Western Canadian “10th century religion, 10th century mentality, 10th century reality.”
    Muslims and Christians actually got along quite well in the 10th century. If you were teleported back to Europe in the 10th century you’d probably want to be in Moorish spain. The christians back then might have burned you at the stake over a minor difference in christian theology.

  31. The Muslim reaction is a tribal reaction – a perspective that the West grew out of centuries ago. A tribal perspective views everyone, not as individuals, but as members of a homogeneous tribe.
    1) You are either members of The Tribe (in this case, Muslim) or you are Other.
    2) If you are Other, then, you must submit to the domination of the Muslim tribe; or,
    3) You must be killed.
    It’s as simple as that. There is no ability to permit Otherness. That means, a mindset that cannot deal with self-analysis, with analysis of others, with questions, debate, dissent. It’s all based on faith – and faith in Truths that are valid outside of any empirical evidence.
    This also means, a culture that cannot be scientific. No inventions, no medical discoveries, no engineering discoveries, nothing. They have to purchase all goods from the West – where the exploring minds can function.
    The Internet has confronted this primitive tribal mindset. And – the West cannot permit tribalism to rule the West. Therefore, we insist that we have minds; that we question, explore, dissent..and dissent can indeed lead to offence. That’s science. If the Muslims reject our mindset, then – they should return our medicines, our inventions – cars, planes, oil – everything…and live in their tribal mode.
