Muslims reveal absurdity by rioting, killing over a CARTOON
 

Come on, guys. What's all this detailed analysis and concern over who might have been offended by what, and why? I never saw so many brain cycles assigned to the wrong task.

The idea of rioting, destroying building, and murdering people on three continents because you didn't like a political cartoon, is ABSURD. No one in his right mind would do it for that. And I include the present Muslim rioters among those who ARE in their right mind. They know what they are doing, and why. And a political cartoon, ain't it.

A political cartoon didn't trigger the rioting and killing. A bunch of angry, militant thugs triggered the rioting and killing. They merely used the cartoon as their excuse, this time. If the cartoons hadn't shown up at a favorable time, they would have rioted because someone stepped on a crack in the sidewalk. (That would have been about as sensible as rioting over a cartoon.)

These Muslims aren't trying to get us to stop "offending Islam" with political cartoons. Rather, they are trying to get us to fear militant Islamists when they get their dander up... while simultaneously trying to show us that they will get their dander up whenever and wherever they please, and we'd damned well better not try to stop them.

It's not a "cultural clash". It's not "misunderstood nuances of Islam".

It's merely a bunch of thugs trying to soften us up for the real fight, which comes later, when they try to start intimidating us into letting them dictate how our societies run. They have started by trying to get us to believe we SHOULD take their demands into account, no matter how silly the cause nor how murderous the result. The idea that we, in different countries, should obey THEIR religious dictates, is absurd on its face. But the handwringing in the press, tells them that they are on the right track.

Knock it off. The proper response is to laugh at them, call them the barbaric, murderous fanatics they are, and throw the pillagers and murderers in jail. We should probably thank them, for handing us such a persuasive example of the irrelevance of the "reasons" they choose to begin rioting and killing people.

They will attack, kill, and destroy, no matter what we do to placate them, appease them, or accomodate their nutty "demands". So, we should do none of those things. We should respond appropriately, with eyes open to their real goals and methods, and not try to pretend they have a legitimate grievance (political cartoons? Give me a break!).

They are thugs, wantonly killing and rampaging to achieve a political purpose. They are, in fact, terrorists.

They should be treated as such.

The lack of any disavowing of the riots by "normal" Muslims is very troubling indeed. Apparently they are content to be led by barbaric, sixth century madmen.

"Content"? Maybe, but I think it is more like fear of their own people. Look how the black population responded to Bill Cosby's comments several months ago. No imagine how Muslims would react from one of their own saying what they are doing is wrong. Such a person would quickly be labeled an infidel.

Instead, the entire group is being labeled as idiots. And justly so. And it will go on, until they gain the huevos to kick out the insane, murdering savages in their midst.

HOW many threads about this do we need? http://www.uspoliticsonline.net/imag...s/confused.gif

If you want to show what you think of Muslims rioting and killing over a cartoon, you can get a t-shirt with the "offending" cartoon on it here. Clicka da linka. It may take a while. Drudge posted it on his website, and the order department has been swamped all day.

I'm not affiliated with the website or the company. I just think it's a damned good idea.

I truly hope you buy and wear that shirt in public, my friend. You will inevitably get a reception that befits a person of your character.

Anyway Little-Acorn, just between you and me, don't you secretly admire these Muslims for how they stand up for their religious beliefs?

Why exactly do you think that it is a damned good idea?

Well, being a Christian who is sick to death of these pseudo-intellectual liberal bedwetters that think it's great fun to depict Jesus in a bowl of urine, I am enjoying the beating Muslims are handing out. Yeah! Vicariously, it's a victory for my side as well. Beat the shit out of assholes that have no respect for people's religions. Just flail away at the scum. Bet it will be a long time before they pick on Islam.
Christians have no need to resort to violence because we know God will deal with the pecker heads in His own good time.

No, I would not wear that T because most Muslims here in the States are not a bunch of blood thirsty assholes and a little respect for their religion does not hurt. I can't see going out of my way to piss of people who are trying to get along.
Besides, it's just cheap and crass commercialism.

No, I have not changed my position on anything. I think it's great Europeans are getting their asses kicked again by their good friends the Muslims and of course those who care to look can see this is a global violence and not just confined to Denmark. No doubt Iran and Syria are exploiting this to the max and who knows if this is IT it or not?
It does seem to me that Muslim violence outside of Israel has kicked up quite a bit in the last 6 months or so.
Of course so far it's all been the fault of the infidels, who show no respect for anything much less Islam.
As long as it's confined to Europe and the Middle East then I think it's all great fun to watch.

Maybe if everybody in the world shut UP (that means no more asinine cartoons too) about them and just payed attention to keeping terrorists out, they'd eventually go back to killing each OTHER. Like the shiites and sunnis and kurds and whatever OTHER toxic branches exist.

If we can let them busy themselves with SELF annihiliation they're leaving US alone.

I don't know. Just an idea I dreamed up from observing that it seems muslims aren't happy unless they're at war or fighting or killing SOMEONE...... anyone....anyone.... kids even.

I just doubt that it will STAY confined to these areas. After all, they see the US as a sort of "great satan" or some such silliness.

Frankly I think the cartoon thing is stupid, however I also do not buy the "freedom of the press" excuse given by the original paper in question because of one news article I saw. Apperantly they also recently considered using some cartoons of Jesus in a less than flattering light and decided against it because it might upset to many of their readers.

Europe has traditionally had lots more terrorism than the US.
They have a huge Muslim population compared to the US, and that contributes to the problem.
I have no doubt that eventually home grown Muslim violence will hit us, but can't see any reason to hurry the process.

Liberals don't respect other people's religions and that shows in the way they orginally answered the protests. The arrogant bastards tried to hide behind freedom of expression, hell, Liberals are the worst offenders in that regard when someone comes after them!
The Danes misread the Muslims and now that they are getting their asses kicked they have become a bit more respectful.
I have no use for the demonstrations and the violence, it's stupid and self defeating in the long run, but the Europeans are begging for it.
Kind of shows up their arrogant asses.

I think there is more behind all of this than meets the eye but you will have to read "World War III comes March 2006?" to see what I mean.
Whacko Jacko Chiraq is not fine tuning his nukes and making threats for nothing.

I've noticed that the kidnappers of Jill Carroll have moved their death date back a few weeks because they aren't getting their way and killing an innocent woman just might get enough ire up to cause more than a few problems for them.

I am working on a piece of art. It depicts Ted Kennedy submerged in urine and Nancy Pelosi smeared with cow dung.

What this has to do with my post I am not sure, other than a plug for your idiotic WWIII thread. Next time someone doesn't bother to address a point you make or try to make since you seem to have trouble actually making one, I expect you will refrain from asking them to address the issue at hand.

I am sorry you can't keep up, but I don't have the patience to tutor.

It isn't the patience you lack, it is the intellectual capacity.

The Danish Prime minister cannot allow himself to apologize for the Muhammad drawings to the muslims around the world, even thou it would pay off.

The reason: Its not he´s responsibility what a free independent newspaper in a free country does. End of story!
