Dhimmitude and Draw Mohammed Day
13th Century Persian depiction of Mohammed, artist unknown, via Mohammed Image Archive
I noted the other day that Internet jihadists were leaving death threat comments on the Facebook page of the “Draw Mohammed Day” organizer. Now, the Internet jihadi sympathizers are crowing this morning on Twitter about Facebook taking the DMD page down. As I write, the page appears to be back up. Who knows for how long. [Update 10:21pm: See Allahpundit for the latest shenanigans.]
If you’ve been reading this blog regularly for years, you know that dhimmitude at social networking and Web2.0 sites is nothing new. Nor is dhimmitude in the MSM or in higher education or in Washington. It’s the Achilles’ heel of Western civilization.
In honor of Draw Mohammed Day today, I’m reprinting below the post I published on January 1, 2006 during the original Mohammed Cartoon conflagration and the post I wrote at the end of 2006 on the deceit behind the manufactured Mo outrage. We’ve been here before. It’s about much more than free speech. The Muslim cartoon jihadists know it. As Zombie writes in a trenchant essay today: “Which side in this conflict gets to determine what counts as “disrespectful” (a contemporary euphemism for “blasphemous”)? In the jihadists’ view, any depiction of Mohammed — even a positive or honorific depiction — is deemed blasphemous. It’s our religion, they say, so we get to say what’s offensive. Yet if we grant them this inch, they’ll take another inch (it’s also disrespectful to write Mohammed’s name without a worshipful “PBUH” after it), and another inch (it’s disrespectful to criticize Islam in any way), and before long it’s the whole mile, and we once again will be living in an intellectual Middle Ages in which religious tyrants dictate our every thought and action.”
And as Oriana Fallaci warned before her death: “The hate for the West swells like a fire fed by the wind. The clash between us and them is not a military one. It is a cultural one, a religious one, and the worst is still to come.”

SUPPORT DENMARK: WHY THE FORBIDDEN CARTOONS MATTER
MichelleMalkin.com
January 30, 2006
Last October, I blogged about a Danish newspaper, Jyllands-Posten, and its cartoonists being threatened by Muslim extremists for publishing cartoons about the prophet Muhammad deemed offensive by Islamist p.c. bulllies. See here and here.
For the past four months, The Brussels Journal has relentlessly covered the ensuing uproar from the Muslim world and the battle over the newspaper’s freedom to publish provocative speech.
Things came to a head over the past week. In Gaza City, Palestinian gunmen took over an EU office to protest the cartoons:
Masked gunmen today took over an office used by the European Union to protest the publication of cartoons deemed insulting to Islam. About five gunmen stormed the building, closing the office down, while 10 other armed men stood watch outside. One of the militants said they were protesting the drawings, one of which depicted Islam’s Prophet Muhammad wearing a turban shaped as a bomb.
Danish flags are being burned. Danish workers have reportedly been beaten. The country now faces an international boycott from Muslim nations.
While the intrepid newspaper has not apologized for printing the cartoons, it has issued a statement acknowledging that the cartoons “offended many Muslims, which we would like to apologize for.” Paul Belien at The Brussels Journal singles out the courage of Danish Prime Minister Anders Fogh Rasmussen, who has refused to capitulate to the bullies:
He is one of the very few European politicians with guts. If anyone deserves a prize for his valiant defence of freedom of speech and freedom of the press, it is certainly Mr Rasmussen. He did not give in to pressure from Muslim fanatics, nor from the appeasers at the UN, the European Commission and the Council of Europe. In the past weeks Denmark has shown that all is not yet lost in Europe. If something is rotten now it is not in Denmark.
Here, for posterity and in solidarity with the paper’s free speech rights, are the 12 forbidden cartoons:
In response to the notion that the West (or Islam) has ever followed the prohibition against depicting Mohammed, Zombie has created the “Mohammed Image Archive,” which contains dozens of Mohammed images from throughout history. A must-read.
Zombie e-mails:
I think it’s important that the West stands up on this issue: if we cave into Muslim demands for self-censorship, our freedom of speech will be taken away forever.
Exactly right. And for those who think this isn’t affecting us, open your eyes:

2006: The year of perpetual outrage
MichelleMalkin.com
December 20, 2006
It began with the Danish cartoons. It ended with the flying imams. 2006 was a banner year for the Religion of Perpetual Outrage. Twelve turbulent months of fist-waving, embassy-burning, fatwa-issuing mayhem, intimidation, and murder resounded with the ululations of the aggrieved. All this in the name of defending Islam from “insult.” Let’s review.
In late January, masked Palestinian gunmen took over a European Union office in Gaza City to protest the publication of a dozen cartoons about Islam, Mohammed, and self-censorship in the Danish newspaper, the Jyllands-Posten. They stormed the building, burned Danish flags, and spearheaded an international boycott of Denmark products across the Muslim world.
The rage was manufactured pretext. The cartoons had been published four months earlier with little fanfare. It wasn’t until a delegation of instigating Danish imams toured Egypt with the cartoons—plus a few inflammatory fake ones including an old image of a French hog-calling contest participant deceptively portrayed as “anti-Muslim”—that the fire started burning. Think the mainstream media will remember that? Not likely. They fell for the ruse and were slow to acknowledge it after American bloggers and Danish television exposed the scheme.
What was really behind Cartoon Rage? Muslim bullies were attempting to pressure Denmark over the International Atomic Energy Agency’s decision to report Iran to the UN Security Council for continuing with its nuclear research program. The chairmanship of the council was passing to Denmark at the time.
Alas, Western journalists, analysts, and apologists were too clouded by their cowardice and conciliation to see through the smoke. More than 800 were injured in the ensuing riots and 130 people paid with their lives. The innocents included Italian Catholic priest Andrea Santoro, who was shot to death in Turkey on Feb. 5 by a teenage boy enraged by the illustrations. The Muslim gunman shouted “Allahu Akbar!” as he murdered Father Santoro while the priest knelt praying in his church. Several brave moderate Muslim editors who stood up to the madness were jailed, fined, and convicted of crimes related to insulting Islam. The Danish cartoonists remain in hiding.
The world soon tired of Cartoon Rage, but the “peaceful” Muslim ragers were just warming up. They found excuses large and small to riot and threaten Western infidels.
In India, they protested the magazine publication of a picture of playing card showing an image of Mecca and also burned Valentine’s Day cards. An insult to Islam, they screamed. In Spain, they protested a Madrid store for selling a postcard with a mosque on it with the words “We slept here.” An insult to Islam, they protested.
In Pakistan, they burned down a Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurant, a Pizza Hut, and toppled Ronald McDonald. In Jakarta, they smashed the offices of Playboy magazine. You know why.
In June, the trial against lioness journalist Oriana Fallaci for insulting Islam commenced in Bergamo, Italy. She had been charged by professional Muslim rager Adel Smith of the Muslim Union of Italy of “vilipendio”—vilifying Islam—in her post-9/11 books slamming jihad. A judge had refused to throw out the case. She faced a pile of death threats and accusations of “Islamophobia” for speaking truth to Islamo-power.
Fallaci’s death from cancer during the fifth anniversary week of the September 11 terrorist attacks preempted the trial in Italy, but her passing did nothing to preempt the eternal rage of the perpetually outraged. The day she died, the grievance-mongers were shaking their fists and calling for the head of Pope Benedict XVI for his speech that made reference to a 14th century conversation touching on holy war and jihad.
For engaging in open, honest intellectual and spiritual debate, he was condemned, lit afire in effigy, and targeted anew. The ragers bombed Christian churches in Gaza City and Nablus.
They murdered Italian Sister Leonella Sgorbati, an elderly Catholic nun shot in the back by a Somalian jihadist stoked by Pope Rage. “Whoever offends our Prophet Mohammed should be killed on the spot by the nearest Muslim,” a Somalia cleric had declared. The Vatican made nice with Muslim leaders.
New outrages are always in bloom. In late September, it was a Berlin production of Mozart’s “Idomeneo” that featured the decapitated head of Mohammed. A week later, it was a banyan tree attacked by Indonesian Muslims who wanted to disprove its mystical powers. A few days after that, it was former British foreign secretary Jack Straw, who had the audacity to make the very obvious observation that full Muslim veils impede communications between women and Westerners. Offensive! Disturbing! An insult to Islam!
Not to be outdone, a delegation of extortionist imams boarded a U.S. Airways flight in Minneapolis in November and tried to manufacture an international human-rights incident.
They clamored for a boycott and threatened to sue.
The good news: The fire did not catch here this time. The bad news: As Oriana Fallaci warned before her death: “The hate for the West swells like a fire fed by the wind. The clash between us and them is not a military one. It is a cultural one, a religious one, and the worst is still to come.”

Happy Draw Mohammed Day to all!!!
I drew a lovely Mohammed….I await the fatwahs.
A friend of a friend asked me via Facebook Message last night the following regarding DMD:
Angelia ***** ****** May 19 at 11:36pm Report
with all the freedom you enjoy, you can’t draw a picture for free speech?
Sent via ********
And here was my response:
James Riley May 20 at 12:41am
Angelia,
There’s a such thing as responsible free speech. I can say whatever I want, but there are consequences to what I say and do.
With that in mind, despite the fact that I wholeheartedly support the concept behind DMD, I will not participate – I value my own life, my job at a major media organization which would certainly be in jeopardy if I did take part, and, most importantly, the lives of my wife and two toddlers (whom I hope to provide, with my wife, many, many siblings) which would be at unnecessary risk if I took a stand here and now. There will be a time and a place for me to do my part – it is not today and it is not for this cause.
I commend Mark and all others involved in this endeavor, for his participation and do not fault anyone for doing so, including yourself. I simply will not be participating myself for those reasons.
God bless you and your family, and God bless America!
In Christ,
James
That’s all I have to say about that.
Happy DMD everyone!
No you don’t. You’re a coward.
My very modest contribution…
http://hindenblog1.blogspot.com/2010/05/burn-draw-mohamed-day.html
more later.
James Riley, the Dhimmi.
Way to take a stand, Jimbo.
jamesrileyjr,
Why did you feel the need to advertise the fact that threats of violence were effectively silencing you? You have provided the violent jihadis positive feedback which will serve to perpetuate/exacerbate violence.
Couldn’t you have merely said nothing?
What in the world was the point of that? No, nevermind..don’t answer.
Today I wish I was an artist so I could participate.
I’m a coward for standing back and not risking my employment in a down economy and my family’s life when every time we’ve heard about people who did this and were publicized and exposed, it was with the words “death threat” and “under 24 hour guard” in the story?
There’s a time and a place, and for me, this isn’t it.
Mohammed
PBUHPTOOEY!Next time you read someone writing that pbuh crap, try substituting the onomatopoeia for spit in your mind. It makes it more palatable.
Hummm…why say anything then? It really doesn’t matter – you’re not the subject of this post anyway. You just shine the light on why we should stand up on this….next.
“Persians! Come and get them.”–King Leonidas/300
Again, could you not have just said nothing rather than give them encouragement towards violence?
If you choose to stay out of it for any reason, that’s your business, but publicly declaring that your reason is fear is non-productive and feeds the flame.
Wisdom to stand down from a fight doesn’t make you a coward. Tweaking the nose of your enemy then running does.
Speaking of cowards. I love the picture of the dufus with the table cloth wrapped around his head and the “freedom go to hell” sign.
Not everyone can be a soldier, not everyone can do that job.
I speak out for those people who find themselves in that situation – who agree with the instant flash of anger but who also must make decisions with the longer view in mind. I did make it clear that I support others taking a stand and why I could not join them, and I do hope someone reading this understands that responsible action breeds responsible action.
Drawing a Mohammed picture today would satiate that impulse to stick it to all of those arrogant idiots who want to blow us to kingdom come, all of those morons who think murdering innocent people is a good thing, every single numbnuts who thinks treating women as animals is somehow a good thing, and most importantly, that they should be allowed to murder whomever disagrees with them, just based on their say-so. Believe me, I’d love nothing more than to show these bastards just how many virgins are waiting for them in Hell – but my situation, my responsibilities, and my future depend on my restraint right now.
So go ahead and call me a coward. That’s your First Amendment right and I won’t stop you from saying it – but I will contest the argument behind it.
I’m still waiting for the “non-radical” Muslims and their groups to stand up and denounce the death threats.
This is why Muslims have no credibility. Don’t try to tell us about the alleged virtues of Islam when you don’t have the courage to stand up against these threats.
I wonder if it ever occurred to the Muslims that a “god” who says deception to advance Islam* is a positive value would have no problem lying to them about who he really is.
(*Taqiyya)
Some of the FB drawings are great! I was interested in the names of those who commented on the pix. Eastern and Western names.
I’m especially joyful today because a local fellow was arrested this week for sending $$25+K to al Qaeda.
OK Misscheryl Happy DMD everyone
!
That the mohammedan hates the West is a given-it is part and parcel of who he is. But “the clash between us and them” includes all too many traitors among us; they-the traitors and Dhimmitude- are our great enemy. Culturally or militarily we could sweep the mohammedan back to the desert, CAIR, Muslim Student groups, Hamas, Hezbollah, Al Quida and the rest are but chaff in the wind were it not for the traitors and Dhimmitude. We will lose this war, both culturally and militarily, until the traitors and Dhimmitude are exposed and neutralized.
Our home grown and imported Leftist (think Soros) will align with the mohammedan to bring us down if they can. Christians are being killed and enslaved in Egypt, Sudan, Kenya, Pakistan, Indonesia (East Timor ring a bell?) while American Presidents and businesswhores heap praise on The Religion of Peace.
Those with talent please draw the cartoons-mine is but a stick figure (with a goat)- and enjoy. But draw a bead on the American Leftist, traitor and Dhimmitude and show courage to our weaker brothers that they can rise to the challenge. When Mohamed and his demon worshiping hords swarmed out of the desert they swept MOST everyone out their way but only MOST. On every front the moon god ran into strong opposition from great leaders who stopped them-sometimes permanantly sometimes only for awhile. But they were often stopped.
Now we need to roll them back, first sweeping the American Traitors, Dhimmitude and such out of the way. Draw a bead.

Let your sidearm be like Master Card:
Don’t Leave home without it.
EXCELLENT point. Well said!
My Bishop once told me, based on his personal experience with many muslims, that most were quite open to Christianity but fear reprisals and death and that’s why they remain muslim. It most generally has nothing to do with them having a true belief of it but fear alone that kept them there.
I drew mine. I will not be subject to islam.

But I’m a pu**y-ass chickens**t so I’ll be hiding until it’s safe to give them the finger without risk.
Y’all should check this out. I posted it on my FB page earlier in honor of Everyone Draw Mohammed Day.
Naw-that 72 virgins thing has them all excited with brain/hormone lock. If they wish to die for islam I am more than willing to accommodate them. If some of them, or the elusive Great Majority, wish to live and let live they best step forward quickly.
Allie Opp Opp, opp, opp
Good post. I hate to think that you’re right but I believe we are heading in a straight path for this “clash”. Our military will never push these zealots back until we stop the PC crap and look out for our sovereignty. The progressives who preach the lie of U. S. imperialism have damaged our nation to the point where many believe we ARE the evil empire.
In the words of the cave dwellers: “Let it be so.”
Question for Muslim women:
This 72 virgins thing, are they just for the men or are there 72 guys waiting for you too?
Excellent, brilliant point!
So obvious that we others – I, at least – never thought of it.
Kudos to you.
Logically (I know, asking for the impossible), that should trap muslims in the liar paradox; which. as far as I am aware, was “devised” by a Greek philosopher in the 4th century BC – yes, I’m using “BC”, dammit! – , and was even used in a Star Trek episode – in the first season, I believe.
But, never mind me.
Your post was great!
Again, kudos to you!
Honestly, I don’t think “God” has much to do with it as fear does.
Exactly.
And that is what must be loudly, incessantly broadcast to America-lovers.
Absolutely correct.
jamesreillyjr,
Why do you think that your life would actually be in danger? Are you a public figure?
Some people, like MM perhaps, may actually be putting themselves at risk by doing this. However, for the 99.999% of the rest of us that aren’t public, outspoken figures, I really don’t think you have much to worry about.
You seem to have forgotten females in moooslimbism are no more than chattle, to be used, sold and enslaved by Mohammad’s words…it’s in the Koran…I think…pffftt on that crap.
——————
I wondered why just the other day I had this compulsion to acquire more JHP’s for my 357, now it’s all clear.
If I were to draw something and put it up on a public site, then yes it would draw attention to me. Even if I were to only put it on my Facebook page, where not all of my friends agree with the concept and ideas behind DMD, I don’t trust Facebook’s privacy settings not to go haywire.
Despite the fact that I could potentially rely upon the security of the mob mentality, I would rather not place my family’s security on that assumption.
I’ve been reading the page for several days now. FUNNY AS HELL.
It was down when I first came online this morning, but has been back up for hours now. EVERYDAY should be draw mohammed day!
Islam is the scourge of the world! It is the earth’s single largest problem. Too bad our POTUS is sympathetic and quite possibly a Muslim.
I’ll echo what rightisright said. Women are part of the livestock.
I don’t do Facebook. Where else can I send a picture?
As someone who has actually faced death the concept of cowardice is alien to me.
I’m just curious; what’s it like to be a pu**y?
Could it be that such a statement could have been uttered by the Father of Lies?
Muhammed humping his favorite camel comes to mind. Muhammed smoking opium and demanding people believe he is a prophet of God or he will kill them comes to mind. Muhammed telling the world if they do not believe EXACTLY as he believes, they are infidels and deserve death, while being led off to the funny farm, comes to mind. Kim Jung Il in a turban comes to mind.
Your comment reminded me of this quote from Cicero:
It appears that you’re in good company with your thinking.
If it looks like a pig, oinks like a pig, and smells like a pig…
@single stack and anyone else interested in calling me names:
“I’m just curious; what’s it like to be a pu**y?”
Really, you’re asking me that while starring out a curse word?
Frankly, I’m amazed at how many people simply ignored everything I wrote except the “I’m not drawing a picture today” thing or took pieces of what I said out of context.
I’m being called names for taking a principled, responsible stand and making it clear that while I agree with the central theme and laud others participation, that I, and I’m sure others fall in this boat too, am not able to participate myself.
Discussion is one thing. Disagreement is one thing. Name-calling… and starred-out name calling too! At least have the fortitude to stand up and use grown-up language to insult me if you’re going to do that!
james,
Fear not about me. I am only calling you either paranoid or self-aggrandizing.
Chap, you seem to have an, ummm, interesting understanding of the phrase “name calling.”
RE:
I tried looking under the rocks, but I couldn’t see him. Is he the one crawling on the wall?
I applaud your courage, Michelle. It will be interesting to see if the jihadists can match the hate speech of the left, however.
I always liked the one with the bomb in his turban. I think that one captures the essence of this “peaceful religion.”
chapoutier–I’m going with the latter.
These religious wackos hate us when we make fun of Mohammed and they hate us when we have tried not to offend them. It is more likely that they as soooo frustrated with their totally pathetic lives that they need a scape goat to get through the day. How bad must life be that they are duped by the promise of 72 virgins in the afterlife? Maybe the best thing to do is to keep making Mohammed cartoon until the wackos are too warn out to respond. Their precious religion doesn’t make them better people than the rest of us.
“I’m being called names for taking a principled, responsible stand and making it clear that while I agree with the central theme and laud others participation, that I, and I’m sure others fall in this boat too, am not able to participate myself. ”
You are able. It is so simple, even a caveman could do it. You choose not to.
Even so, I am using “grown-up” language to do it, right?
Chap, I’m not trying to sound paranoid, but I can see how someone might think that. Self-aggrandizing… again, not trying for it but intentions are different from actions.
To quote a real coward, “let me be clear:” I support the movement. I support the right of people to do this. I also realize the consequences that would result from my participation.
I’ve only responded to anything here because I did not want to be seen as someone who just tosses a comment out there and doesn’t have the fortitude to stand up and defend himself. I find it ironic that the exact opposite outcome has resulted.
If we all want to cease discussion at this point on this topic, since it appears I have (unwittingly and accidentally) hijacked the thread, I have no trouble with that at all.
by all means..lets
Ah, the LGF link is to a 2006 post, before Chuckles the Dancing Clown went totally off the rails. I was starting to think the blind squirrel had found his nut, or Lindsay Lohan was going to campaign for sobriety or something.
Any pictures of Big Mo with Aisha, his 6 year old bride?
Having has some experience in the Middle East and with Islam – I would say there would be a 100% guarantee anyone would become a public figure in less than a heart beat if the Fanatic Islamists found out who drew a picture of MOE in less than a flattering light. Now, being a Christian Infidel that drew that picture in less than a flattering light would only add to the fanatic response from the Lunatic Islamists. Anyone who thinks different is delusional.
I think that most people understand there is a threat to life and limb when opposing Islam…I mean, isn’t that the point of all of this? It certainly isn’t because we expect an invitation to tea.
I would draw an accurate sketch of The Prophet superimposed within an optical gunsight.

That’s my picture of mohammed burning in Hellfire.
I have seen hundreds of such pictures over the internet, many with the publisher being fully public.
Do you really think they are putting themselves in significant mortal danger?
Sorry. I do not buy that. Because this is not about true outrage. This is about impact. And getting all worked up over Joe Blow living in Little Town, TX doesn’t do that. Getting worked up about Trey Stone and Matt Parker on the other hand…
I have in mind a poster of Moe with one of his holy hands grasping the neck of a fifth of Rebel Yell and his other holy hand pushing a BBQ Pork Sandwich from Gates and Sons into his Holy Maw -
Chap – it is about outrage and it is about impact, and it’s about much more than that. for your reading pleasure.
Malkin and Fallaci. Quite a pair.
Hope you have a concealed carry permit though.
I’m starring it out to comply with the posting rules of the site. I’ve been here long enough tho know that if certain words aren’t starred the comment never gets posted.
I call you names because the labels I’m using describe what you’ve admitted you are.
You loudly proclaim your cowardice and then rationalize it. Now you claim victimhood for being excoriated for it and bravery for sticking around to display your cowardice as a badge of honor.
If you tell people with courage you stand with them and then tell them you’re too chickens**t to do what they’re doing you deserve the ridicule you’re getting.
That one gave me a good laugh-and didn’t surprise me.
(sniff)The mean people are beating me up so let’s talk about something else.(sniff sniff)
You made a fool of yourself. You’ll just have to live with it.
I’m pretty sure somebody probably said this once. In German.
There is different kind of dhimmitude slowly creeping into our midst.
We can’t burn certain politicians in effigy without a visit from the Secret Service?
Thank you for this compilation, Michelle. Thank you very much. Sharing the link with my network.
I’d like to see a “Tell Your Favorite Mohammed Joke” Day. And follow it up with a “Tell Your Favorite O-blankie Joke” Day.

Excellent quote from Cicero.
What’s the deal with your screen name linking to a domain name hustling web site?
Ms Fallaci saw the danger and had the courage to speak out. So, thankfully, does Ms Malkin.
Good idea. You’ve made your point. Now, all you have to do is live with it. Good luck with that.
Mohammed was sitting in a bar one day when Jessica Simpson, wearing her “Daisy Dukes”, strutted by.
“Would you look at that cutie! How would you like to add her to your harem, Mohammed?!” someone asked.
“Too old for me.” Mohammed replied.
Know how Obama tests a microphone?
“Testing. One trillion. Two trillion. Three trillion.”
The Cartoon-i-fada, *~@):~{> is a manufactured fraud. The cartoons themselves, as well as the fakes, testify to the contrived nature of the outrage by their very nature.
How does it reflect upon the ROP that they would murder… for these?
The guy holding “Freedom Go to Hell”
looks very HANDSOME, doesn’t he?
I honestly don’t know how some members of the media can live with their own hypocrisy.
For decades the MSM threw one snit-fit after another whenever Reverends Falwell or Roberts would utter so much as one word of criticism towards contemporary US society or mores within the context of one of their sermons. Reporters and writers frequently turned to the pages of their editorials and newscasts to exaggerate and take out of proportion whatever may have been said by either reverend and use it to paint Christianity as oppressive.
Yet now that same MSM seems perfectly content to remain silent while Islamofascists use their religion to impose one of the biggest threats to free speech this nation has seen since the 1920′s!
For while Islamic jihadists use threats of violence to intimidate and censor freedom of thought and artistic expression – the kind of suppression Hollywood and the MSM seem to always accuse religious conservatives of being guilty of attempting to afflict on the nation – these media lions and keepers of truth (sarcasm to the hilt!) at newspapers, radio stations and network and cable news outlets across the nation appear all too happy to sit by and let a hand full of brave souls like MM take on the real purveyors censorship and repression – the Islamofascists!
Why yes, vatodio–and he’s wearing the fashion of choice for Rachel Ray et al: the kefiyyeh!
was suprised to see the track to lgf.

Fuseman,
I think you’ll find that LGF has gone off the rails quite a bit. While Charles is still occasionally on-target with some things, he seems increasingly driven by his raid hatred of anything “creationist”. and the overall timbre of his blog has gone a bit nuts. he still has a few loyal readers, but is hemorraghing readership as he continues his anti-creationist crusade.
It’s too bad too. LGF used to be a required stop in a Conservative blog tour. I don’t know what happened, but somehow we lost Charles.
Nothing forgotten. Actually Right and Tiger, My question was to provoke Muslim women into thinking about their standing/relationship with the Muslim man in their life. I’d be pretty ticked off if ‘Mr.K’ couldn’t wait to croak so he could go off and boff someone else.
(Now, waiting for me to croak so he could… wellll)
But seriously. How long to put up with that kind of crapola!
The link to LGF is to a post in 2006…that was before the site went kaput. It is still a nutty place to go. Ah, the good old days…
Lol! It’s funny to see that link to LGF.
I forgot all about that site. *chuckle chuckle*
Wait. There’s ‘boffing’ in Mohammed’s ‘heaven’?
2006 LGF thread, before Chuckles went insane.
Allowing millions of Muslims into the west is having the effect Globalists like the CFR controled government wants.
Division, anger, and problems. This is what helps destroy the last nation state. It is treason on many fronts.
Allah is a false moon god, and Mohammad raped, and murdered most of his life.
BZO, or Die!
Per the Hadith, 72 virgins who regrow their hymens, with skin so pale you can see their innards (huh?) and 27 boys as smooth as pearls.
The reward for blowing oneself up is eternity in Allah’s whorehouse.
If so, does this change your opinion of Islam?
After saying “Mohammed”, I sometimes add “PBUH”. The “P” stands for a word that sounds similar to “peace”, but has a completely different meaning.
Here is my picture of Mohammad…
Bees Piss Upon Him.
Muslims outraged over (Fill in the Blank).
yawn.
Yes and no, MissCheryl…I didn’t think it was a real religion, now I know it’s not.
I get the point of this article, but I don’t get the point of purposefully disrespecting someone for their religious viewpoint. As a Christian, I don’t appreciate when others do that to me. No, I don’t want to chop off their heads, but still. If there are moderate Muslims who are also offended, even if not moved to murder and jihad, why aren’t their feelings to be considered?
The disrespect is aimed squarely at the jihadists who want to kill anyone who draws a “picture” of mohammed. This is nothing to do with those who don’t believe that way! If you think that people with the kind of “religious viewpoint” that says to “kill the infidels” deserve respect, then I don’t know what to say to you.
No. I still want you to tell me what compelled you to provide positive feedback to jihadis that their threats of violence are effective at silencing people like you.
