The Thin Skin of Muslims

Ohhhh you silly Islamic radicals, just write a letter…Labeling this as silly is strange considering the magnitude of this madness. People have died and embassies have been burned etc. It’s pure Islamic radicalism at it’s finest.

No getting around the irony of that one.

However, images of our Lord that are disrespectful and downright disgusting are hailed as free speech. You don't see Christians threatening to kill people over it.

Actually, you do, but these days it is irate individuals and not mobs.

I suspect there is something else going on to incite this level of violence. I find it hard to believe that it is simply spontaneous over something relatively trivial - or is blasphemy not trivial in some cultures? </font>[/QUOTE]

Why were those Danish flags to hand? Who built up the stockpile so that they could be quickly dragged out right across the Muslim world and burnt where television cameras would come and look? The more you study this story of "spontaneous" Muslim rage, the odder it seems.

The complained-of cartoons first appeared in October; they have provoked such fury only now. As reported in this newspaper yesterday, it turns out that a group of Danish imams circulated the images to brethren in Muslim countries. When they did so, they included in their package three other, much more offensive cartoons which had not appeared in Jyllands-Posten but were lumped together so that many thought they had.

It rather looks as if the anger with which all Muslims are said to be burning needed some pretty determined stoking. Peter Mandelson, who seems to think that his job as European Trade Commissioner entitles him to pronounce on matters of faith and morals, accuses the papers that republished the cartoons of "adding fuel to the flames"; but those flames were lit (literally, as well as figuratively) by well-organised, radical Muslims who wanted other Muslims to get furious. How this network has operated would make a cracking piece of investigative journalism.

We're being fed propaganda that all Muslims are "out to get us" and the Muslims are being fed propaganda that we're all "out to get them", Nimmo asks...cui bono?

So who does benefit?

 

[elijah_lives]

The extremists benefit. Particularly Syria, Iran, and Al-Qaida. It is a warning to Europe, IMO.

 

[poncho]

And the neocons benefit also. Gives them more "emphasis" in order to widen the conflict in the middle east, which according their own documents that basically say that "Saddam was just the immidiate justification" for a wider conflict in the middle east in their efforts to control Eurasia and all the resourses to be found there and of course to consolidate and strengthen their new economic world order. And the United Nations because "the victors" (hopeful neocons)would eventually hand the conquered over to them and they would benefit by gaining even more ability to control and (re) distribute the earth and man's resourses.

It's all being staged and driven from the top. Imo.

 

[elijah_lives]

I think the neocons have enough on their plate to handle, without adding more.

 

[poncho]

I think this is bigger than the neocons.They have higher powers they answer to bankers and business interests. In other words, the new economic world order. Note; see also Trilateral commission, Rockefellers and Rothschilds.

And the extremists can be bought, bribed, coerced and controlled by the same powers. Not likes it's never been done before. It's called balkanization.

I don't buy it.

 

[poncho]

Course not. Which shows they didn't waste any money with their decades of propaganda and cover ups.
