The term ‘Molotov cocktail’ is notably absent from this Lars Vilks report.


So let me summarize the Washington Post article for you:

Somebody tried to set Lars Vilks and his house on fire, almost certainly because he draws mean things about their religion.

Via Hot Air Headlines. Yeah, this was the guy who got assaulted by religious fanatics earlier this week, after he showed them mean Photoshops about their religion:

Let me tell you what worries me about Europe. What worries me about Europe is not they’re going to collapse into some sort of prostrate client state of radical Islamist fanaticism. No, what worries me is that the Europeans have precisely two tools in their political toolbox: technocratic social democracy, and authoritarianism. Technocratic social democracy is rapidly demonstrating that it has absolutely no idea how to handle this kind of aggressive, violent religious fanaticism. Authoritarians… do. It will be the wrong answer, ethically speaking, but since when did that ever stop an authoritarian regime?

We're not too far from that in the US, Moe.

Michelle Malkin > has quite a few articles on the Western appeasement of Islamic radicalism. Of course, we can’t dare call it such (see AG Holder because it would be ‘offensive’.

I personally think that people should have enough respect for religion to leave it free from mockery, but if religion is to be mocked, then equal opportunity mockery should be the rule. I loathe when Christianity is mocked, but I remember that

It is mine to avenge; I { the LORD} will repay. In due time their foot will slip; their day of disaster is near and their doom rushes upon them.
Deut 32:35

I’m am not going to burn down Hollywood or attack a speaker because they produce crud that I think that it’s morally offensive. I will boycott them, but assaulting them is out of the question.

Don’t leave the party, hijack it back!

The only poll that counts is the one at the ballot box.

I don’t want to be Reagan. I want to be a Chance/Soros hybrid.

 

If one reads history they will see that Europe

has always be a fractured society. The people seemingly want to have an authoritarian rule them so they can have peace. However, history will also show you that war is always on the horizon. Why do you think that the early settlers to the “colonies” which became the USA were “fleeing for religious freedom” and economic freedom to make their fortune in “the New World”. The Moors took over Europe in early history. The Huns were the barbarians at once. The Romans were the big guys on the planet once upon time, etc. etc. etc. The great experiment which became the USA has lasted 225 years and if history is to repeat itself, we are on our last years. Why you say? Well one religion will try to dominate all others; greed from the “rich bankers and the elite who want to rule and have the good life” and the rest of us to be the serfs or servants for them. Why can’t our current generations see this and repulse the coming dictatorship? Well, it is called dumbing down of our education system and not knowing HISTORY and Greed! Think about it.

Bill says “…Why you say? Well one religion will try to dominate all others; greed from the “rich bankers and the elite who want to rule and have the good life” and the rest of us to be the serfs or servants for them….” WHAT?????

Most “rich” people just want to be left alone to enjoy their hard earned wealth. The ONE religion that is a danger to us all is ISLAM! Which means SUBMISSION! When will you take YOUR head from that dark place and see?

Did you ever read European history? Did you ever visit parts of Europe and see and study the ruins and talk with the locals about that history? Yes, Islam is the “religion” of domination and submission, whereas Christianity tries to convince a person to make an individual choice to accept Jesus as the Son of God and the “blood sacrifice” to forgive us of our sins. But as unfortunate as it is there are “men and women” who have made or inheirted their millions and billions and with their greed want more and more. They are “privileged and above the law in their own eyes” and want the rest of us to be their servants. If you are a self made millionaire and “rich by society standards” and you worked your fingers to the bone to get to that financial status, you are entitled to enjoy the fruits of your labors. But those “privileged billionairs who are greedy” and look down on you for your hard work and success, they want you to PAY your taxes and “redistribute your wealth” because you are not looking out for the poor and destitute and “their state” should take from the rich and give to the poor. Not their wealth, but your wealth. You know the Kings and Queens of Europe had their “nobles”. The Dukes and Princes and Barons and Vicounts, etc. They had their wealth, yet owed their allegiance to the King to keep that wealth. Please go back and read and study that history> My head in the “dark place” can see that we are repeating history because we haven’t learned from that history. And those hard working “rich” people who “just want to be left alone to enjoy their hard earned wealth” should wake up and take some actions to keep it. To those who are given much (in this case rewarded with wealth for their hard work) much is expected. Sorry I offended you Audax!

Well Bill, sorry you are so..

..concerned about “rich” people and not concerned about Islam wanting the WHOLE WORLD to SUBMIT to them.

Ah Bill, I currently LIVE in Europe, was a student here in the 60′s, a USAF pilot in the early70′s and married a European and have had a home here since 1986 and don’t see Kings or Queens or Dukes or Princes or Barons or Viscounts or other royalty roaming around trying to keep the little people down. Most Countries here have some form of representative but socialistic democracy and their governments want to take our wealth instead. Kinda what your going to get now that Obama and the Dems are in power in the US.

Not being a Christian, If I understand Christianity you believe in Christ through your own free will and are not required to SUBMIT without the free will part. That is NOT part of Islam, You submit or pay the dhimmi tax or DIE. I do see Islamisists livinf here wanting Europeans to SUBMIT to their law (sharia) and way of life and I feel if they like it so much they should go back to the desert paradises they left to come here.

I lunch at a restaurant in Vienna, it is located in the old wall that withstood the Islamists attempt to make Europe submit in the middle ages. I thank God that they were not successful then and pray they will not be successful now and I certainly don’t worry about “rich” people taking my wealth!

Well my friend, I guess you have a better feel

Bill Sunday, May 16th at 9:20PM EDT (link)

for Europe than I. However, my experiences when I was there, that Christianity was dying on the vine. Socialism was taking over. The “State” was taking the place of God were I was. For myself, Jesus Christ came to me when I was 12 years old, 50 years ago. I tried to be a “good Christian by warming a pew for most of my life”. Now, I know that is not good enough and am trying to follow Christ in my daily activities. I know that God loves all of us. He sent His Son to die on the cross to Save our souls from eternal damnation if we believe through faith in Jesus and the pardon he purchased for us with his death on the cross and Resurrection to the Father. I can ask others if they know him, tell him about his love and how he has affected my life and ask others to pray for their own forgiveness and accept by faith the wonders of Jesus and God our Father. I can not force anyone to accept that, only expose them to the Word and the Gospel of Jesus Christ and ask God to talk with them. God gives you and I a free will to accept or reject Him and His Son. No judgment by me or anyone else. God will judge, I can only love my fellow man.

As for the “rich”, I refer you to George Soros, Bernie Madoff, the likely ever heard of officers of the biggest world banks and financial institutions who through their money will “purchase the services of world politicians” who then only look out for their benefactors (the rich) and forget about us lower class, middle class and upper middle class who work our “tails” off to make it to the next day. You have heard of the “New World Order”, right?

Islam to me is Evil as it oppresses its people, most of whom can’t even read the Koran. They get their “religion for Imams or other clerics” who have read the Koran and have their own interpretations. If that interpretation is a “religion of peace” then that is what may be taught. If the interpretation is of “radical Islam” where domination and submission or die for the Infidels is believed, that is what they preach. I don’t know but I suspect that Radical Islam is more prominent than not. If Non-Radical is not the predominant interpretation is preached more, then I would be surprised. You see, you will very seldon see or hear a “so called moderate Muslim on T.V. or hear on radio or a clip on YouTube where another Muslim is denouncing Radical Islam. If I saw that daily or weekly, then, my opinion of which brand of Islam is more prevalent might be changed.

I fear that Islam will try to take over in the USA as it is trying in most of Europe. I also feel that most of Europe has given up on Christianity because the “State” has taken the place of the Almighty and Merciful God in Heaven. All I can say is the time will be coming, and I believe it will be in my generation, that all of us Christians will have to make the ultimate sacrifice of our earthly bodies to stand up for our “freely held beliefs”. I am not afraid to make that sacrifice nor is my wife or mother or others in my family and extended family. God is a Great and Good God and Jesus paid it all in my behalf as he did for you and your family. It is a free gift all the world only has to accept in faith and it can be theirs too.

In summary; socialism is rearing its ugly head in the USA and our citizens are going to have to accept it or this November 2010, go to the polls and reject it.
Islam is evil and it started with two brothers Ishmael and Issac, and deceit and forgiveness. It will end with those who are led by the “evil in the world” trying to destroy what God gave in “covenant” to his chosen people of Israel. History is repeating itself, and the evil are again aligning against his people, Israel, around the Globe, and the descendants of Ishmael will be duped again to try to destroy Israel against the covenants of God the Father. So, you see, Audax, it is out of our hands.

Thank God! November 3, 2010. U.S. House, GOP 290, DEM 145; U.S. Senate, GOP 70, DEM 28, IND 2. Keep on praying!

 
 
 
 
 

Have to keep an eye on those Christians,

at least in America. So what if they don’t fly airplanes into buildings or attempt to blow up Time Square, they’re theocrats aren’t they ?
The priorities in media circles and elsewhere are utterly bizarre.
Unfortunately too many here fear what they’re told to fear and hate what they’re told too hate, all the while thinking they are both liberal and, God help us, intelligent.

A thought experiment.

Take the 10 worst out of a 1,000 person sample of Americans, excluding Muslims. Sure, they’ll be engaging in some awful behavior. Killing their spouses, knocking off the local Qwiki Mart for cash, etc.

Somehow, radical Islam produces 10 that want to die knocking down New York skyscrapers, airplanes over Detroit, dozens of military personnel in Fort Hood, or hundreds of pedestrians in Times Square.

There is a difference. And it is very dangerous. I don’t particularly care why.

And an open question to the Muslim Terrorists: What good are 72 virgins if the fuse is gonna fail to ignite at the critical moment?

If history is a guide a this sort of thing will only escalate and get a lot worse before it is resolved through violence on a massive scale.

Sigh…

Instead of engaging in respectful debate over “art”, someone should have blown up the Brooklyn Museum of Art when it exhibited Chris Ofili’s “The Holy Virgin Mary” and murdered Andres Serrano when he exhibited “Piss Christ”.

You do that claiming it’s free speech, and then also claim it’s religious persecution if you’re busted, and all your demands are met. Simple really if you think about it.

Obviously I’m saying this tongue in cheek, but it’s similar to what I’ve thought about with how things went down in Spain a few years ago. Basque separatists would do things like post warnings before they blew something up so that no one would get hurt. Muslims did it the easy way – they blew up a bunch of crowded trains, killing around 200 and wounding many hundreds more, and then the Spanish government completely caved in to them.
