Stand Back Brat, that award goes to me

British non-government organization "Islamic Human Rights Commission" named the three biggest Islamophobes of 2004.
It is easy to guess who were the first two politicians named on the list: US President George Bush and Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon. Bush became the "Islamophobe of the year" for the overall war against terrorism and the military actions in Afghanistan and Iraq in particular (Iraqi war became the crusade against Islam, the Commission believes). Sharon was "awarded" the title for the Palestinian-Israeli conflict.
The Head of Israeli government shared the "success" in the nomination of "the most Islamophobic politician" with French President Jacques Chirac who promoted the bill on the ban for wearing religious attributes in state schools. Not only French Moslems, but also their coreligionists all over the world opposed this bill.
According to the Islamic Human Rights Commission, many people can be called Islamophobes, and there is no sign that the situation will change for the better next year. IHRC Chair Massoud Shadjareh said that "demonizing" Moslems can be compared with the persecution of Jews on the eve of the World War II.
Massoud Shadjareh called the "Islamophobia Awards" a comedy event aimed at highlighting prevailing prejudices and subverting them using humor. However, the Head of the Commission on Racial Tolerance funded by British government Trevor Phillips named the "Islamophobia Awards" the important step in fighting discrimination of Moslems.
We have to think. In the last 2-3 years the public opinion in Western Europe, USA and Russia started linking the idea of "terrorism" and Islam. Of course, nobody says publicly that all Moslems are potential terrorists, but this idea can be traced in the press articles and the statements of experts saying that radical Islamic groups pose the biggest threat nowadays. Getting rid of the formed stereotype can be hard.
The Islamic world also has stereotypes about the West. The biggest one is that the USA and its allies started the Crusade against Moslems, they do not undersand Islamic traditions and do not want to understand them and made destroying Islam their goal. The majority of Moslems have this opinion, and not all of them support bin Laden.
"Islamophobia Awards" is one more step increasing the anti-Western outlook of Moslems.
Oxymoron.
Bush became the "Islamophobe of the year" for the overall war against terrorism and the military actions in Afghanistan and Iraq in particular (Iraqi war became the crusade against Islam, the Commission believes).
One can only wish this were true. Enough with declaring war on a method; declare it against our enemy. If Bush is getting blamed for it, he might as well just go ahead and do it.
I thought that title was mine!
Well, isn't that nice.
Radical Muslims do not believe in Human Rights. They believe in human rights for male muslims, existence rights for muslim women (only if they serve a useful purpose and don't embarrass the men), and extinction for all other humans.
Hmm, Pravda printing this might just be part of Putin's efforts to make nice with Bush again.
It's not like "Islamophobia" is exactly unpopular in Russia nowadays...
They were actually gonna give the title to me originally.
But I told them that there is a profound difference between a phobia of islamunism....and wanting to nuke their sorry terrorist butts off the face of the earth.
Its time to turn Syria and Iran into glass parking lots.
I know, I haven't laughed that hard in a while. These demented Muslims actually belive they represent human rights, what a bunch of blind men.
That's right. And some of them work in a factory making MOABs.
Is a Moslem anything like a Muslim?
If only Jacques Chirac truly were an Islamophobe,.....the world would be a better place.
LOL
Re-count in South Florida! W won by a dangling chad!
These ingrates should be kissing his butt!
And in a similar revelation, every Muslim in the world is #1 EVERYONEELSEOPHOBE
Exactly where are the MOABs manufactured at? I mean what factory produces them? Where is it located?
If he held half the contempt I have for islamic cult members, he would have long ago emptied our nuclear arsenal on their inbred a$$es and turned the mid-east into a very shiney parking lot!!!!
/end of rant
Who wants to know???
And WHY???
These People are sorely wrong about George W. Bush being an Islamphobe, why if GWB was and Islamphobe, every Mosque in Iraq would be flattened by now. What a bunch of Tripe.
They're just trying to make us feel better.
By putting Bush on the top of their list these bozo's are actually equating Islam to terrorism.
Badge of honor.
You'd think the media would pick up on that.
At the MOAFs, of course.
President Bush doesn't deserve the title of Islamophobe # 1-he still refers to this religion of lunatic's as a religion of peace.
There are no Islamophobes on earth-the zaney bastards are more despised than feared.
Gee, to my suprise the list of islamaphobes does not contain any of those who killed the most muslims. Saddam huessin should be at the top of the list.

This is no surprise.
Muslims and the rest of the Arab world are more concerned about who humiliates them (Jews, Americans and Western culture in general for making them look inferior) than they are about who actually oppresses and kills the most of them.
They are pathetic.
I love it!
ThreePuttinDude......man, that describes many of us on the course!
So in honor of the game...and the picture...SWING AWAY!
phobe, as in phobia? Nah I don't think he is afraid of them. I do think he's exposed them all to a bad case of Americaphobe though.
because the 4 of July is right around the corner!
Man, that's an honorable title.
Let's show these bleegind libs we will get our Pres back to office -- I think every freeper, every conservative should make it an effort to go and vote this time and give Bush a thumping majority
I'm not sure I qualify as an Islamophobe, I'm mostly phobic about head-chopping, meat-grinders, teenage-dynamiting, daughter-maiming, and flat-earth mass murderers, but in the absense of a special category of phobia for those, I'll settle for islamophobia.
Huh! No way. That's my title. The only good islamic is a non-existent one.
Islamic health care is NOT blowing yourself UP,..
I defer to my tagline.
>> I thought that title was mine!
Get real. That title is mine!
>>British non-government organization "Islamic Human Rights Commission" named the three biggest Islamophobes of 2004.
When will the three biggest Israeliphobes be named?
>> The Islamic world also has stereotypes about the West.
Make the world a better place. Kill an Islamic. Better, perform it in Stereo. Kill two.
I have always liked it.
If President Bush were the number one Islamophobe he wouldn't keep insisting that they are "the religion of peace". Unless he is "afraid" that muslims would attack if he told the truth about Islam...
There is much to be said for improving the parking situation in down Damascus.
