Islam, the Religion of Peace

[AlfredJPruffock]

It is the portrayal of Mohammed as being a terrorist which most of them object to. Correct me if I am wrong but what religion do 99.9% of suicide bombers follow.
While you can't say that all muslims are suicide bombers, it is pretty safe to say that all suicide bombers are muslim. If they want to stop this portrayal, then stop using the exploding jackets. Simple.

Pehraps you are forgetting the Japanese used kamakazi suicide bomber pilots against the US during WW2.

And he wanted us to give up our EU rebate. But then again, were the Muslins to know what he did with his bottom, he would be burnt. How do I tell them?

Perhaps we should send them Mr Mandelson with a bomb up his ar*e.
Give them a taste of there own medicine with his exploding bum!!

It's that weasely tulipe Mandelson that's really got my goat (ho-ho) up about this today.

EU Trade Commissioner Peter Mandelson also criticised the European papers which re-ran the cartoons, saying they were "throwing petrol onto the flames of the original issue and the original offence that was taken"

What fecking right does he have to criticise anyone expressing their freedom of speech in a perfectly legal manner? It is only a short step from here to "don't wear a t-shirt, it might upset the muslims". He should be supporting the papers' rights, not pandering to irrationality. I bet the fecker even thinks "Life of Brian" isn't funny.

Here's a few more snippets from those wacky, peace-loving muslims:

In the Indonesian capital, Jakarta, protesters stormed the Danish embassy shouting "Allahu Akbar" - God is Greatest. They smashed up the lobby with bamboo sticks and threw chairs, before pelting the coat-of-arms outside with with rotten eggs and tomatoes and tearing down and burning a Danish flag.

Western journalists and aid workers are leaving Palestinian territories after being threatened with revenge attacks by local militias.

Palestinian militants seized and later released a German hostage in the West Bank as more violence was threatened.

After receiving hundreds of death threats, the cartoonist Kurt Westergaard has been forced into hiding and is believed to be in Florida.

Take off & nuke the site from orbit: it's the only way to be sure...

That's my kind of talk, marine.

From the murcy world of the Pruffock Social Observatory, my take on this whole epoisode is that the anger is not so much as a result of the cartoon, but the pereception from the Muslim community seems to be that the so called War on Terror, with the recent devlopments in Iran,now seem now to be perceived as a War on Islam.

Whatever the reality of the above , that perception if fueliing the hostile resentment which we now see, if Iran is attacked perhaps we might witness a rather bitter and violent global Jihad in response, I do hope I am incorrect in this observation.

it would have helped if G.W. "tulip for brains" Bush had not called the war on terror 'the crusades '

Feck Me, Jack Straw's At It Now

Another weasely little tulipe joining ranks with Peter Mandelson.

Foreign Secretary Jack Straw has condemned the decision by some European newspapers to reproduce cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad as "disrespectful". But he praised the UK media for its "considerable responsibility and sensitivity" for not publishing them.

Who exactly has done wrong here in the government's eyes? Newspapers legally printing a satirical cartoon, or hordes of followers of the religion of peace rampaging through the streets worldwide, threatening people at gunpoint, sending death threats, etc.

I suppose all this does at last expose the lie that the (fortunately) overturned bill criminalising "incitement to religious hatred" would not have been used to penalise satire or comedy.

The Pruffock Social Observatory can confirm that following some very irate calls from the House of Saud, Jack and Tony are kissing ass quicker than you can say Freedom and Democracy.

You know what, I find the pelting of the coat of arms more offensive than the so called insult against a fictional character!
