Muslims make fun of Mo', but that's ok... |
Omar from Iraq the Model says:
"You know that those cartoons were published for the 1st time months ago and
we here in the Middle East have tones of jokes about Allah, the prophets and
the angels that are way more offensive, funny and obscene than those
poorly-made cartoons, yet no one ever got shot for telling one of those
jokes or at least we had never seen rallies and protests against those
infidel joke-tellers."

Very interesting.
I've asked him to divulge a few examples. These will provide good evidence
that much of the anger and violence expressed by Moslems over the Danish
cartoons was just one Allah size puff job.

Time for a cartoon post…
I have refrained from writing about the Danish cartoons issue, not
because it doesn't concern me but rather because too mush has been
written about it and I didn't feel like I would be adding something new
to the discussion.
However I couldn't resist commenting on some of the most unacceptable
reactions by some Muslims…more precisely by some Iraqis.
We have all seen common people protesting in the streets of different
countries and we heard many condemnations from governments but as far as
I know, not a single Muslim government took any action, except for
one…Iraq's!
We have a piece of wisdom here that says "The bird got mad at the grain
field!" which as you can see means that sometimes people make stupid
decisions that can harm only their own interests yet they think that by
doing what they did they would harm those they're boycotting.
This saying applies to all Muslim countries in general and to our
interim government in particular.
Our brilliant transportation minister Salam al-Maliki who is a Sadrist
by the way announced that his ministry will suspend all projects and
contracts with Denmark and Norway and said that Iraq will stop accepting
any donations or offers concerning Iraq's reconstruction!
Who are they harming by doing this?
Denmark? No…they are harming no one but Iraq and Iraqis.
I give up! I have to comment on the general situation…
I swear that 90%+ of the protestors in Muslim countries have not seen
the cartoons and do not know the name of the paper and when I say that
I'm sure of it because I have access to the web 24/7 and I spent a
really long time searching for the cartoons and couldn’t find them until
a friend emailed me a link and.
You know that those cartoons were published for the 1st time months ago
and we here in the Middle East have tonnes of jokes about Allah, the
prophets and the angels that are way more offensive, funny and obscene
than those poorly-made cartoons, yet no one ever got shot for telling
one of those jokes or at least we had never seen rallies and protests
against those infidel joke-tellers.
What I want to say is that I think the reactions were planned to be
exaggerated this time by some Middle Eastern regimes and are not mere
public reaction.
And I think Syria and Iran have the motives to trigger such reactions in
order to get away from the pressures applied by the international
community on those regimes.
However, I cannot claim that Muslim community is innocent for there have
been outrageous reactions outside the range of Syria's or Iran's
influence but again, these protests and threats are more political than
religious in nature.
One last thing, even if the entire EU apologizes it won't change a
thing; fanatics in our countries here had always considered the west
their infidel arrogant crusader enemy and no apology no matter how big
or sincere can change that.
