Europe is finally waking up to the implications of coddling Islamofaciests. I admire their courage but fear it has come too late.

Sheesh, Christians endured a crucifix in a beaker of urine as a piece of "art." The Muzzies have no idea, but I'm hoping the lefties don't make that POS religion an exception to their rule of trashing religions.

This is playing out eerily like Tony Blankley's The West's Last Chance, although in his "worst case scenario" the EU doesn't show much backbone. He does point out that Europe is waking up to the Islamic threat and current events seem to indicate that is the case. We can hope.

The editor of a French newspaper that reprinted a cartoon featuring the Prophet Muhammad on its front page has been sacked for offending Muslims. Jacques Lefranc was dismissed by the Egyptian owner of the paper, France Soir, in a developing row between Muslims and European press. Danish paper Jyllands Posten first printed the cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed in September 2005. Their publication has since sparked protests by Muslims around the world, who say the pictures are offensive.

( SAME ONE?)

A Jordanian tabloid has printed some of the cartoons: Anger grows over Muhammad cartoon.

Interesting!

Looks like Islam is dumb enough to make this a hotbutton issue.


But I am surprised that the EU media, of all things, has decided to throw out the rhetoric of appeasement and offend the Muslims. It just shows that getting killed is no big deal to them, but having your right of free expression curbed--that is a big deal.

Since when does a misfit minority get to call the shots? That's like me jumping onto the stage while Frank Sinatra is singing and demanding he sing the songs I like and to sing them *my way*

Le Monde, while it has always been unabashedly leftist and anti-American, has also usually shown that peculiar French arrogance of believing that only France is the moral light of the world.

Good to see, whatever the reasons.

Well, if they get targeted by terrorists as a result of this, does that mean Chirac lobs a nuke at someone?

I give Le Monde 48 hours before they come back with a simpering apology for "offending" Muslim religious sensibilities.

That's a full day longer than it took the last French newspaper, but Le Monde is no doubt made of sterner brie!
