Today is Draw Muhammad Day

I never really wondered or cared what Muhammad looked like.  I always thought his story was pretty cool but that was the extent of it...

Now, with all the fleckspittle fatwas flying, embassy's burning, Danish pastries boycotted, etc., and all because someone insulted The Religion of Peace, his countenance has become an issue.  The forces of liberty and secular liberalism are fighting back by sponsoring Draw Mohammad Day.

OK, I guess I always thought he looked like the guy on the right in this picture (the guy on my left).  













Created Controversy
Anyway, Reason Magazine has a great article on the whole global hubub.  The most egregious and insulting of the original cartoons were not created by Islam-hating westerners, but by Islamists themselves.  A kind of self-created "Protocols of Zion" to whip the sweaty hordes into a white hot frenzy.  It worked.

These images were included in a dossier that aggrieved imams livingin Denmark took with them to the Middle East specifically to stokeoutrage at a dozen cartoons published in September 2005 in theDanish newspaper Jyllands-Posten. 

The images include an amateurishdoodle identifying Mohammed as a pedophile, a dog humping aprostrate praying Muslim (with the caption, "This is why Muslimpray five times a day"), and a photocopy of a French comedian in apig-squealing contest (with the phony caption, "Here is the realimage of Mohammed"). 

It is nothing less than amazing that holy mendecrying the desecration of their religion would create such foulimages, but there you have it. It is as if the pope created "PissChrist" and then passed it off as the work of critics ofCatholicism.

We are patsies for allowing 7th century woman-hating troglodytes to drag their petty third-world bigotry and grievances into our lands.  Shame on Europe!  Shame on the United states!  Shame on us all for not having the balls to ship these angry goblins back to the stinking toilets they crawled out of.
