More Danish Muhammed Madness
The religion of peace is up in arms yet again:
COPENHAGEN, Denmark - Videos showing anti-immigrant party members mocking the Prophet Muhammad were pulled from Web sites Monday as two youths seen in the clips were reported in hiding and the Foreign Ministry warned Danes against travel to much of the Middle East.
Muslim clerics from Egypt and Indonesia condemned the video broadcast in Denmark last week showing members of the Danish People's Party youth wing with cartoons of a camel wearing the head of Muhammad and beer cans for humps. A second drawing placed a turbaned, bearded man next to a plus sign and a bomb, all equaling a mushroom cloud.
More:
In Jordan on Monday, a powerful umbrella for some 200,000 professionals including engineers, doctors and journalists, said the video "reveals hatred toward the Prophet who came to the world with a message to enlighten the people."
Is this the message they're talking about?
Sorry, but until Muslims can handle criticism and even fun being poked at their expense, don't expect the rest of us to believe in the enlightenment they promise. To paraphrase what I've said before, followers of a religion who whine and cry every time said religion is the subject of unflattering commentary, that religion must not have much to recommend it.
And for those of you who may have missed the cartoons that started the whole cartoon fatwah, click here.
