Stand Up or Give Up!


Another great one by Cox and Forkum

Cox and Forkum reminds readers that the cartoon war isn't just about protests over the depiction of Mohamed. Before the Danish cartoons, Muslims objected to pictures of piglet and statues of pigs in Great Britain. Mark Steyn had this great piece on that subject last year.

And with Nigerian Muslims busy killing Christians and burning churches last week in protest of the cartoons, we need only recall that these same Nigerian followers of the religion of peace were busy killing Christians in protest over the Miss World beauty pageant that had been planned for Nigeria in 2002.

It's clear that quite a bit offends Muslims these days. And it's sad that leaders like Bill Clinton would validate Muslim violence by suggesting during a visit to Pakistan: that those who published the cartoons should be convicted and the people’s religious convictions should be respected at all costs and the media should be disallowed to play with the religious sentiments of other faiths.

Of course that comes from a man whose administration funded such works of art as the dung covered Madonna.

Muslims being offended, when they are not busy complaining about being oppressed by Israel or American imperialism, is all part of their plan to use our socities tolerance and forebearance against us. Take another look at the 20 year Muslim plan to dominate America and you may begin to connect the dots.

The choice is clear: either we stand up to defend our freedom, or we give it away to whacked out crazies who will find more and more things to be offended by.

More on this subject:

  • Inside the Enemy Camp- Grizzly Mama attends a public meeting in Philadelphia sponsored by the Council on Arab Islamic Relations, Philadelphia branch. She presents a disturbing, even chilling eyewitness account of the extremism that these people are willing to express in public. Imagine what they really think.
  • Metrospy, who dared to make t-shirts with one of the Mohammed cartoons has been subject to a large number of emailed threats. Metrospy prints a sample and includes the email addresses of the people who sent them. Feel free to email each of those loons a copy of the Cox and Forkum cartoon above.
  • Want to see a whacked out Imam? Cartoon Nazi has this very odd video of a Muslim cleric going completely bonkers.
  • And Now for something completely different (warning: generally offensive content):
