Michelle Malkin blogs today about her blog recently being hit by what she describes as a “large, foreign-based denial of service attack.” She goes on to write even more disturbing news about a concerted effort from Islamic hackers to hack into and take over websites that have published the offending cartoons, and also includes a sampling of the threatening emails she has received.
Consider it a must-read. It goes without saying that what’s happening here is disturbing and scary. The fanatics are trying to intimidate from the streets and on the web as well.
A couple of days ago here I had a really hard time accessing my admin controls for most of the day. Makes me wonder …..
As a sidenote, I wonder if Antonia ‘there’s hate behind the right wing offending cartoons blogburst’ Zerbisias will be reporting on this anytime soon?

The sooner this B.S. dies down the sooner it’ll go away. Sure it’s a pretext by the Islamfascists to say death to the infidels by these cartoons. And also hypocritical considering some of the garbage they print in their papers but there is a reason why the general american and Western media don’t show certain images……. it’s called being in good taste and respecting others. Let’s take the high road on this one and let it fade.

All violent extremist behavior should be condemned. People have a right to express their point of view. People do not have the right to use violence against those with whom they disagree. You cannot have Peace(Christ) by making war(anti-Christ). You can insert the name of your own personal Peacemaker if you wish. Peace

What part of THIS IS A WAR does the appeasement crowd miss here?
Comment by TexasFred @ 2/15/2006 - 12:14 pm
Okayyyyyyyyyyyy, once again we have the usual call for appeasement from the usual suspect who seems to think the significance of Neville Chamberlain is that he was a center for the Philadelphia Warriors and later for the LA Lakers who once scored 100 points in one game.
It didn work when Chamberlain appeased Hitler and it won’t now.

Your use of the term appeasement in the context of my argument is off target. You have two choices: 1. Kill everybody or 2. Talk. The left wants discussion and if it requires 1000 years of talk to prevent future war, let’s get started. Peace
Comment by steve @ 2/15/2006 - 3:55 pm
And that is all the Left wants to do is talk, and talk, and talk…
When they attack us again…they will want to talk again. We must understand why they feel they hate us. What have WE done to make them hate us. What can WE do to change?
You want to stop thier attacks?
Submit to them, that is the ONLY way they will stop. They have said this, and it is stated in the Koran they use to Justify the killings.
Submit to Sharia Law.
Submit to Islam.
Only then will you be “saved”.
All the talk in the world will not stop them from attacking those who do not submit.

Submit to what? Please be specific concerning “their” demands as you seem to be the only person in America who knows what “they” want. Peace

“It is not allowed for Muslims to fight those whom the Islamic da’wah [preaching] has not reached, rather the unbelievers must first be called to join Islam. If they reject, then they are invited to submit (live under) the ruling of the Islamic State by paying the jizyah tax [protection money – only paid by non-Muslims]. If they reject that, then war must be waged against them in order to remove any obstacle in the way of implementing the Islamic ruling system upon them.”
Convert, submit or die. Steve, which do you choose?

Oh, that quote was from the Indonesian Council of Mullahs, by the way.
Comment by CavalierX @ 2/15/2006 - 9:03 pm
Was that clear enough for you Steve?
You will die (blood everywhere) or you will submit! Will you submit? If not there will not be peace will there? Unless you are ok with peace being blood everywhere!!!!
BTW, Have you read Road to Serfdom yet as I suggested?
