#1 Jeez, aside from oil about the only thing Arab countries export is seething.

#2 Why the heck haven't hundreds of cartoonists in the world started cranking out "Mohammed Bibles", on the order of the "Tijuana Bibles"?

Thousands and thousands of cartoons of Mocmud, each vying for grosser and stupider.

The point is that pictures of Mohammed are only blasphemous because everybody is afraid or too "sensitive" to Moslem feelings to make them. But
though they can "jump" all over a single cartoon, if there were thousands of them it would be damn near impossible.

If everywhere you looked, Mukmad was being *laughed* at and scorned, it would at first drive the mullahs nuts, and second, it would start to give the rank-and-file ideas.

*Nobody* has the right not to be made fun of. Especially in a free country. But that right is useless *unless* we make fun of assholes like Mohammed. And LOUDLY.

#3 Arab foreign ministers yesterday lashed out at the Danish government over a growing controversy aroused by the publication in a Copenhagen daily of caricatures representing the Prophet Muhammad..

#5 Whoops. Wrong thread. If the muslims are offended by Mo cartoons, they are more than welcome to leave Denmark.

#8 But with a growing muslim population in the West, we're likely to see less mockery of islam, rather than more. And there's precious little already; the proverbial "climate of fear" has existed since at least the time of the Rushdie fatwah.

#9 Here is a link to the photos, I didn't think they were that bad. Actually they were a bit disappointing, I was expecting some real raw stuff, heh.
Any creative folks out there?

Because they're deathly afraid of Muslims. I know of two cases where American "artists" backed down from Muslim pressure.

#12 That's why the cartoons have to be anonymous. Posted to the internet not to a particular web page or a server that could be threatened, but distributed virally, say in batches of 100, put together in a torrent RAR file for P2P swapping, titled, say, "Britney Spears Lesbian Sex Paris Hilton.rar"

Then all that has to be done is to give out the name of the torrent files to all those individuals who would spread it faster than gonorrhea in a gay bath house.

Even for those non-artistically inclined out there, they could take existing comics and modify them, say, "Doonesbury", for example. Just scratch on a beard, do some cut and paste, and there is Zonker Harris proclaiming he is Mohammed "the prophet of God', and that Allah has just told him to smoke hashish and sodomize a pig before killing three people at random and drinking their blood.

It really wouldn't take a very long time to do a crude cut-and-paste, then just fill and re-fill the dialogue balloons again, sort of like the way that lazy bastard Trudeau does it himself. People do it to Jack T. Chick comics all the time.

The only one the mullahs could get pissed off at would be Gary Trudeau, I guess. Or Ted Rall, say.
