NORTH America's political columnist, Christopher Hitchens is telling the world+dog that the Everywhere Girl has been replaced by "Islamic Rage Boy". Islamic Rage Boy is a stock photo of a Kashmiri-based rent-a-protester who seems to be protesting at everything which moves.
According to Hitchen's Slate column, IRB has been seen protesting Danish cartoons, magazine photos of a Muslim Mosque, a visit to India by President Bush, comments by the Pope, execution of a Muslim terrorist by India and Israeli military action.
In other words when big media needs a picture of a stereotyped mad mullah to satisfy the prejudices about Arab unrest, IRB is there. If he knew how the western media was using him, and the general damage he is doing his cause, he would probably not appear anywhere. Instead he would settle down and get back to his day job selling the plastic bits on the ends of shoe laces that no one knows what they are called and his night time job as a Microsoft press officer.
However, we doubt he would be as successful as our Jennifer who has managed to work for competing computer outfits. I doubt anyone would buy a Dell from this guy.
I knew he looked familiar! I just knew it!
The Rainbow Man is currently serving three life sentences for kidnapping.
We probably won’t be seeing him at any more NFL games.

Feeling depressed after the 1980 Super Bowl, he began watching a preacher on the TV in his hotel room and found Jesus.
Probably a Rams fan. (The Steelers beat the Rams 31 - 19 in that game).
Christopher Hitchens is pretty much the last upholder of the real ideals of the old left. For all his monumental wrongness on everything but the war he has my begrudging respect.
Rage boy: The poster boy for the failure of western journalism.
Hmmm. Greg “Muhammad” Packer?
Talented FReeper humor BUMP! LOL!
lol!
You need the helmeted Arab rescue guy, and you need that white backpack kook with the parka, watchcap and coke-bottle glasses from the top of the Twin Towers with the Airliner closing in from behind.
You remember that whacko I'm talking about?
No wait a second --I think you have helmet guy already...
Ah, but more than TOURIST Guy???
Who is Everywhere Girl?
LOL Ok, Smarty Pants, did you have that bit of knowledge tucked away in your brain or did you look it up?
My comment in post #12 tells the tale. It’s something I learned many years ago and it just stuck with me.
That’s right, now I remember hearing a long time ago that Rainbow Man got busted and was locked away.
