Michael Barone writes that all Europe has become divided into three parts. He writes in a blog essay entitled “What the Italian elections mean”, that there is Old Europe, New Europe and the Anglosphere.

Jacques Chirac’s leadership has once again doomed his countrymen, this time with his surrender on the employment law. France will have more stagnation, but they will be in good company with other Old Europears such as Germany and Italy.

The off shore island nations of the United Kingdom and Ireland are still more Anglo-Saxon than European, much to the chagrin of the French.

Small countries like the Netherlands and Denmark and the former Communist countries of Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Slovenia and others have effective, intelligent governments and thus are considered “New Europe”.

New is new and old is old and never the Anglo Saxons shall be European.

ombie Time has uploaded images which depict the Prophet Mohammed throughout history and many of the images are by Muslims. At this time in history Muslims worldwide have called for a boycott of the tiny nation of Denmark because a few journalists in that nation are trying to stand up for Western principles of freedom of speech and not cave in to self-censorship in fear of reaction from Islam. The Historical Images of Mohammed:

… despite the supposed Islamic prohibition against depicting Mohammed under any circumstances, hundreds of paintings, drawings and other images of Mohammed have been created over the centuries, with nary a word of complaint from the Muslim world. … This page is an archive of numerous depictions of Mohammed, to serve as a reminder that such imagery has been part of Western and Islamic culture since the Middle Ages — and to serve as a resource for those interested in freedom of expression.

Note that the Arabic name “Mohammed” has several different spellings, including — Mahomet, Muhammad, and Mohamed.

Human Events Online has published the Danish Cartoons.

His followers are certainly an embarrassment and disgrace, not only to themselves, but to their prophet!

Hey, Hey, Hey - Now we know just how devoted to the Prophet Mohammad, his followers really are!

Sandmonkey has discovered that the twelve Danish cartoons of Mohammad were published in a prominent newspaper in October of 2005 - during Ramadan. So none of the Muslims in the Middle East were outraged about it until now - more than three months later. They are certainly slow to anger! Or maybe the Danish cartoons were just not blasphemous enough to stir Islam’s righteous anger, until the ignorant Arab street was treated to the Danish cartoons of Mohammad that were created by the Danish Imams of Denmark. No question about it - those “by Muslims, for Muslims” caricatures were quite blasphemous and also much too revolting for any newspaper to publish.

Junkyard Blog has created a video showing the timeline of the Riotous Mohammad Cartoons and Mohammad’s Comic Jihadis: Taqiyya! Muslims have been had by their own lying Danish imams who have now been busted. Taqiyya!

Sandmonkey , who lives in Egypt, scanned the newspaper and has it posted at his site. Nothing quite like that good, old-time Muslim riotous indignation … once it decides to be indignant! Darn! Now the Muslim world, to be fair, has got to boycott Egypt! Ruffles and Flourishes to Beth at MVRWC. Check out “The Role of Deception in Islamic Terrorism”.

Publish, Publish, Publish!
The First Amendment to the United States Constitution is contained in the Bill of Rights. It states: “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”

Most all democracies in the world have similar freedoms written into their nations’ creeds. Now it seems that the very first right, “free exercise” of religion by some followers of Islam, is in conflict with freedom of speech, freedom of the press and freedom to peaceably assemble for everyone else.

All freedom loving nations and people should stand in solidarity with the brave newspapers of little Denmark and the other sympathetic European publishers by demonstrating peaceably for freedom. Prove to the ignorant that the pen still be mightier than the sword; even the sword of Allah. Publish, publish, publish; not to offend a religion, but to defend freedom.

Here is a link to the cartoon images of Mohammad (Mohammed) published at Human Events Online.
Stand With Denmark!

Denmark has issued warnings to its citizens regarding travel to 14 Muslim nations: Afghanistan, Algeria, Bahrain, Egypt, Iran, Jordan, Libya, Morocco, Oman, Pakistan, Sudan, Tunisia, United Arab Emirates and Qatar. The Danish Foreign Ministry has advised Danish nationals already in those countries to leave immediately. Seems like good advice for all Westerners.

In addition - it would be a good idea to try and help the Danish companies who have been unfairly boycotted by the Arab world. These enterprises had nothing at all to do with the publication of cartoons in a Danish newspaper. BUY DANISH!

Islam’s leaders attempt to start World War IV over a children’s book!

The Muslim Riots in the Middle East were started by a children’s book. Quite Incredible? No, not with the current state of Islam with its imams playing the role of agents provocateurs.

Danish Author Kåre Bluitgen wrote a children’s book about the life of Mohammad, but when he attempted to find an illustrator for his book, he discovered that Danish artists were frightened of the project. After hearing of Bluitgen’s difficulty in finding someone willing to approach the subject of Mohammad, Islam’s prophet, the editor of Jyllands-Posten decided that freedom of expression in Denmark was in peril, so he published the cartoons about Islam from the twelve illustrators he could find, who were brave enough to consent. Many months went by after publication, followed by numerous apologies, etcetera. However it was not until the agents provocateurs, Danish imams, inflamed the Muslim street by adding their own depictions of Mohammad to the set of cartoons and carried them from Denmark to the mosques of the Middle East. (“What’s Rotten In Denmark?”)

As for Kåre Bluitgen and his children’s book, he eventually found an “anonymous” illustrator and published his story of Mohammad for Danish children. Nan at “American Daughter” has posted the original illustrations from Bluitgen’s book, which started it all. Nan adds: “In our secular society, good taste is a matter of choice, not legislation.”

The best thing that Islam could do for itself, it it wants to survive as a religion, is to hire a Pope. Yes, a Pope; someone to lay down the law to all the insane mullahs who are leading the various Islamic factions today. Someone from the outside would be best, as the core of Islam is so corrupt and deranged it is unlikely a good leader would be found there. Perhaps Pope Benedict would be just the man.

Danish Imams!

On October 19th, 2005, ambassadors from Islamic countries demanded a meeting with the Danish Prime Minister, wanting his government to prosecute the newspaper that published the cartoons of Mohammad. The PM gave them the brush-off, reminding them that his government could not interfere with the right to free speech.

It was then that a group of conservative Danish imams, Islamisk Trossamfund, took matters into its own hands, setting about on a tour of Saudi Arabia and Egypt with the inflammatory cartoons, plus three other mysteriously unattributed drawings. From somewhere unknown Islamisk Trossamfund obtained drawings “showing Muhammad with the face of a pig; a dog sodomising a praying Muslim; and Muhammad as a paedophile.” The creator of the Danish cartoons complains, “This was pure disinformation. We never published them.”

But the devious campaign of the Islamisk Trossamfund imams succeeded. The easily led Arab street erupted in rioting and protests, burning European embassies, and calling for death to all who disrespect Islam. Last week, Saudi Arabia recalled its ambassador from Denmark and Libya shut its embassy.

According to “Guardian Unlimited”, the journalists at Jyllands-Posten, where the cartoons were originally published were asked about regrets for their actions. “We apologised for hurting the feelings of a lot of Muslims in this. But we don’t apologise for printing the cartoons.”
