Blogburst backlash

It didn’t take long for liberal columnist Antonia Zerbisias to find the real villian in the cartoon wars. No, it’s not the imams who spent months whipping up a froth of anger across the Middle East; it’s the scores of people who re-published the Jy…

I have to admit, I’m feeling a little hate. I hate the idea of dhimmitude. I hate the idea that someone can suppress my freedom of speech. I hate the idea that someone wants to make me less free.

As an American artist, should I depict Jesus with a nuke protruding out of his cloak?

No, but it’s nice to know you can, huh?

Islam sucks!

(that’s my new greeting. sorta like “Aloha”, with a little “allah akbar” thrown in).

Hey ST–big day coming up next week. What do you want for Valentine’s Day?

Islam sucks!

(my new “goodbye”, same as hello, in the spirit of “shalom” and “aloha”)

Is it any wonder 2 days after being referred to the UN that this has happened? It is a Cartoon that ran 5 months ago, and suddenly after being reffered to the UN this is sparked into riots….possibly as cover for Iran’s plans, or possibly in retaliation since Iran said that their would be “dire consequences” if they were brought before the UN.

The press is at it again; who would have thought?

Editorial writers never tire of piling on Christianity and Judaism, but break out the kid gloves when it comes to Islam. Why? Sensitivity? Tolerance?

No. It’s called cowardice.

It’s a lot more fun to hit people who will politely ignore you instead of hitting back.

I don’t know about anyone else, but I’m sick and tired of having the “Western point of view” articulated by cowards.

Check out this post at Iraq The Model:

Quote:

” You know that those cartoons were published for the 1st time months ago and we here in the Middle East have tonnes of jokes about Allah, the prophets and the angels that are way more offensive, funny and obscene than those poorly-made cartoons, yet no one ever got shot for telling one of those jokes or at least we had never seen rallies and protests against those infidel joke-tellers.

And I think Syria and Iran have the motives to trigger such reactions in order to get away from the pressures applied by the international community on those regimes.”
