Another example of the kind of barbaric inSANITY that we are fighting in Iraq...  Now a Danish cartoonist is being hunted like an animal because he depicted the prophet Mohammed as a man with the body of a dog.  http://www.wnd.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=57434>

Enjoy the following:

In a statement issued on Saturday by Al Qaeda in Iraq, the group's leader, Abu Omar al-Baghdadi, called for the killing of Vilks and his editor Ulf Johansson, reports Al Jazeera.

"We are calling for the assassination of cartoonist Lars Vilks who dared insult our prophet, peace be upon him, and we announce a reward during this generous month of Ramadan of $100,000 for the one who kills this criminal," he said.

"The award will be increased to $150,000 if he were to be slaughtered like a lamb."

 

This brutish contract is symptomatic of an evil that desires nothing less than world domination.  These freaks want to kill this cartoonist.  If you, reading this, are not a muslim, then they want to kill you.  And your infidel family.  Convert or die.  And if you don't think this is their aim, you are naive.

They were here in 1993 in the basement of the World Trade Center.

They were here in September of 2001.

They'll be back if they're not stopped.

This is just another example of how Religion condones violence. But, I also think it's naive on your part to think these religious "wackos" can be stopped. This has been going on for centuries. The current Administration does it's best to play the "fear" card making everyone think we'll be fighting them here if we don't stop them there. Oh My God, the wolf is at the door again,.....gimme a break. We need to step back and take a look at why they hate us so much. Fighting terrorism is not a war in the traditional sense.

Are you serious?

"We need to step back and take a look at why they hate us so much."

They hate you because you're not like them. You are not Muslim. Because you are not, your life is worth nothing. This isn't hyperbole. This is how you are viewed by these Islamo-Nazis.

And if you don't believe the wolf is at the door, just ask the families of the nearly 3,000 dead in September, 2001. They'll tell you what the howling sounds like.

these are scary moe-foes for sure but did you kno that they have been covetting the US for yrs?? check this out Cory
Federal Holyland Foundation Trial in Dallas Unearths Muslim Brotherhood Plan To “Conquer” the U.S. and Turn It Into a Caliphate.
For the past few years, evidence has been mounting regarding efforts by Islamists to infiltrate America in order to pave the way for jihad. Unfortunately, most of the media and far too many in government have ignored this mounting evidence. As a result, most Americans are unaware of the insidious Islamofascist threat that is growing within our borders.

On Sunday, September 9th, Rod Dreher, Dallas Morning News editorial writer and columnist who is following the Holyland Foundation trial in Dallas, penned a column focusing on a revealing, shocking memorandum that was entered into evidence by the Justice Department.

The document, described as an “explanatory memorandum,” was seized during a federal raid of an Islamic extremist’s home in Virginia – in 1991!! It details a plan by the extremist Muslim Brotherhood to “conquer the U.S.” from within, overturn our Constitution, and replace it with Muslim Sharia law.

Think this is over the top? Read Dreher’s column. Below are some excerpts from his riveting commentary, which can be read in its entirety at http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/dn/opinion/

I think the cartoonist is feeding their hatred...they have very strong religious beliefs...that cartoonist turned something they think to be holy into a joke? Dont we understand yet that we arent dealing with civilized human beings? They are efing crazy....it doesnt mean we need to bow to them, but we shouldnt be antaginizing them either...should we? We wouldnt want them here burning the American flag, or pissing on our church or making a mockery of any of our beliefs, so what makes us think we can do that to them and get a laugh? If we are there to help them, then we need to help them....not insult them....just because they believe somthing that we find insane, doesnt mean its wrong or right....its different...we are there to tell them how to live their lives? Americans do it better? Says who? Honestly, we should believe that we can change their way of living just as much as we should believe they could change our way of living.....if we are there to be the good guys, then do just that and keep your "funnies" to yourself, ooooorrr risk the chance of having a target on your head...because you asked for it, they dont play nice, so understand that they arent going to see their God being made fun of as a joke!!

P.S. Once you’ve read Dreher’s column, if you are sufficiently concerned and outraged, contact your U.S. Representative (http://www.house.gov/writerep/) or your U.S. Senators (http://www.senate.gov/general/contact_information/sena

Below are excerpts from:

“What the Muslim Brotherhood Means for the U.S.” by Rod Dreher

…“This 'explanatory memorandum,’ as it's titled, outlines the 'strategic goal’ for the North American operation of the extremist Muslim Brotherhood (Ikhwan). Here's the key paragraph:

The process of settlement [of Islam in the United States] is a "Civilization-Jihadist" process with all the word means. The Ikhwan must understand that all their work in America is a kind of grand Jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and "sabotaging" their miserable house by their hands and the hands of the believers so that it is eliminated and God's religion is made victorious over all religions. Without this level of understanding, we are not up to this challenge and have not prepared ourselves for Jihad yet. It is a Muslim's destiny to perform Jihad and work wherever he is and wherever he lands until the final hour comes, and there is no escape from that destiny except for

Yeah death to religion means death to violence. A 250 year old culture such as ours has no business telling an at least 5,000 year old culture how to live their lives. Thats why when America went to "Iraqistan" 2 months prior to 9/11 to tell them by force that they did not have the right to have legal heroin, they hit us back on 9/11. You just can't do that to another soveriegn nation without them smaking us on the nose the way they did. Now that the shiz is stired, however we do have the responsability to quell the civil war over there we started. Retaliation does not equal terrorism, but thats the propaganda we get. Of course they hate us, wouldn't we?

The funny thing is, there's no U.S. law preventing anyone from doing ANY of the things you describe. And certainly, these extremists are IN the business of doing just what you describe EVERY DAY. It's taught in their SCHOOLS. So the idea that a cartoon is somehow a legitimate reason for a killing is a red herring - they're in the BUSINESS of killing. Theirs is a culture of death that glories in the demise of all non-Muslims, and rejoices in the death of its own "martyrs."

I'm watching from the weather desk right now as we report on Al Qaeda's airing of videotape of Air Force pilot Troy Gilbert's body after his crash in Iraq. Again, if it's gruesome, these nutjobs are into it.

Ironically, the cartoon (sketch, really) that has this artist running for his life wasn't even published in a Muslim country. See, that's the thing. These Islamo-Nazis are about enslavement and censorship and narrow-mindedness and against all that free people hold dear.

And they want you out of the way.

OH MY, but what about the kids over there?!?! What kids, the kids that are being trained from the time they walk to hate everyone and get trained everyday to kill kill kill in the name of Alah!! YUP, those kids, the men, the women....everyone must go!!! If they die loving Alah, dont they go to "heaven" anyway? Isnt that why they live to serve Alah and return to him? I say lets get them to "heaven" then.....maybe then our enemies will take us seriously...maybe...maybe not.

Okay, littlefoot...

I see your point. You'd probably find many who agree with your carpetbombing plan. It's not the American way, however.

I want to address your question, though. This question:

"I dont think they are right, I think they're evil...they think I'm evil...who's right? Aren't they both opinions?"

No. They aren't just opinions. One is the truth and the other is a lie.

Is a culture that seeks freedom for the most people possible an evil one? No.

Is a culture that seeks the death of all who will not submit to its rules an evil one? Yes.

Too many of us are afraid to call evil people evil. It's called "cultural relativism," and it's the watering-down of thinking that causes many of today's American college students to be tentative in even calling Adolf Hitler "evil," because, after all, "who are we to judge?"

It's the idea that no one's system of beliefs can possibly be more noble than another's.

Sorry.

America's outlook on life is superior to that of Al Qaeda and all Muslim extremists. Far superior. Better. Nobler. Godlier.

You are so right Cory! And it doesn't matter if we try to understand them or not.

They say they are only against the evil among us and don't want to destroy the innocent. The thing is...as far as they are concerned NONE OF US ARE INNOCENT!!!!!!!!!! If we do not convert, we are evil. This is not the American idea of freedom, but it won't matter if we don't wake up!

Fighting back physically is what they understand. They are animals and cannot be reasoned with.

I guess my point was this....if I see a guy with a mullet, I think ugly....where as he woke up and thought cool.....I would say my opinion is a fact though....

latter day saints think they are the "ones", jews and catholics and muslims....well they think their the "ones".....see what I mean? Who's right? I guess we will all know one day....as for Hitler, I'm sure he had some splanin to do when he met his maker....

Right on Cory! The misunderstanding I read in one other blog had to do with one culture trying to tell another culture how to what to do. That is untrue. The true Islamic culture is not El Quida. Al Quida are a hand full of extremists that are trying to keep other Islamic people from choosing a way of life. That is not an opinion but, FACT.

Corey, it's good to see one from the media stating their opinion, way to go. I have no sympathy for these middle-ages oriented cretons, they have no right to walk upright amongst civilized people. If captured any means of information extraction would be fair, they will use our "humanity" against us whenever possible.

littlefoot1979:

As a LatterDay Saint I think that my religion does have the truth. Having said that I would never say that anyone has to convert to my religion or I will kill them. One of the tenets of my faith is freedom of choice. That is NOT an option with Islam. In the Koran it states (not a direct quote) that those who do not convert to Islam are to be destroyed.

While the jihadists are more upfront with their ideology, all of the members of Islam must agree with this tenet or be considered evil. I think that is one reason the "moderates" are so quiet about the behavior of the exremists. (It is also true that they would then become targets for the violence). If, however, enough of them stood up and denounced it, they could then be taken more seriously about their moderate stance.

And the Hollywood crowd is pathetically amusing in their belief that diplomacy is the only way to deal with jihadists. As Toby Keith said (paraphrased), They want us all dead. They want those people dead first. (And he is a registered Democrat (with a brain!))

The very lifestyle of Hollywood is what they use as propoganda to indoctrinate their children in the schools about the "evil" of the West.

Another fact that is amazing, they don't even like OTHER sects of Islam! They are constantly killing each other (and these aren't always the extremists!) so how can we not expect them to do the same to Us?????

Pay attention folks. It's not going to get any better.

Love your mullet analogy!

In the spirit of hijacking my own post, here are a few of my favorite mullet euphemisms:

* Kentucky waterfall
* Missouri compromise
* Tennessee tophat
* beaver paddle
* Canadian passport
* the 10-90 (numbers change in proportion to the amount of hair on top and in the back)

No, no one should pay with their life for a cartoon depiction. But the cartoonist is an idiot of the highest order. I remember when I lived in Chicago, there was an exhibit that caused a great deal of furor. It was a cricifix submerged in urine & the title was "piss christ". Another piece, painted partially with elephant dung called "The holy virgin mary" contained pornographic images. People should remember how much something can bother them if what is ridiculed is near & dear to their values. Again, calling for a fatwah is not an acceptable reaction for a cartoon drawing but why intentionally draw their ire? Christians at both exhibits reacted violently (toward the art rather than the artists as shown in exerpts below:

http://www.renewal.org.au/artcrime/pages/serrano.htmlr>
The infamous Andres Serrano work Piss Christ - a photograph of a crucifix submerged in urine was attacked in two seperate incidents on the consecutive days of the opening weekend. In a move almost as controversial as the work and the attacks themselves, the director of the gallery, Dr Timothy Potts subsequently closed the exhibition in order, he claimed to protect the saftey of the gallery and its staff.

Dennis Heiner, a 72 year old Christian who was incensed by Chris Ofili's The Holy Virgin Mary, threw white paint accross the work and proceeded to smear the paint over the canvas.

There is a famous quote that says "I may not agree with what you say, but I will die defending your right to say it."

Tdubu22u...

Here's the rub. The God of the Bible teaches His followers to love their enemies. (Even if those followers would choose otherwise)

Al Qaeda's instruction book calls for their enemies' death. Death.

Are you actually comparing the anger of Christians about Serrano's work to the insanity of these Islamo-fascists over these cartoons? How can one excuse this kind of brutishness?

Can you imagine the scene if Billy Graham had offered $100,000 to artist Andres Serrano's killer, and a $50,000 bonus if the assassin "slaughtered him like a lamb"? Wouldn't you think Dr. Graham had lost his mind? Wouldn't you call his offer heinous and evil?

Of course you would.

Certainly, you can make the case that this cartoonist is being provocative, but you cannot excuse the prehistoric culture that is calling for his death

Thanks for checking in! My goal is to make Fox10 mornings fun ones, and I'm still having a blast after all these years... When I'm not at the station, my wife and I are usually chasing around three kids, two dogs and a cat or ramming around the Valley in the Sedona. If you see me out and about anywhere, be sure to say howdy!
