Buy Dutch
February 02, 2006

It seems that instead of sticking their fingers in a hole in a dike, those rascally Dutch stuck it in the eye of the idiotic Islamic set, hell bent on destruction, desolation and doom. How did our wooden shoed (and steel balled) relatives do this?

Why they published a cartoon. Parodying Muhammad. By linking him with the worst of Islamic Extremism.

Bully for them.

Of course this Special Spiritual Set cried foul -- as well as several secular politicians and related organizations. You see, Allah doesn't like it when you draw his prophet.

Or wash your ass incorrectly.

Such offenses require protests, boycotts, even death.

"The modern, secular society is rejected by some Muslims. They demand a special position, insisting on special consideration of their own religious feelings. It is incompatible with temporal democracy and freedom of speech, where you must be ready to put up with insults, mockery and ridicule. It is certainly not always equally attractive and nice to look at, and it does not mean that religious feelings should be made fun of at any price, but that is less important in this context. [...] we are on our way to a slippery slope where no-one can tell how the self-censorship will end. That is why Morgenavisen Jyllands-Posten has invited members of the Danish editorial cartoonists union to draw Muhammad as they see him. [...]"

Note to wacky Muslim bomb throwers: Get over your bad-selves. You ain't that special.

Updated: I suppose I shouldn't be so harsh to the Islamists. Other gods don't like people talking about vaginas the wrong way. Their temporal reps don't threaten death... at least, not anymore.
