FATWA ON CARTOON TEE SHIRT
I first wrote of the tee shirt brouhahahahaha here. Shocka! It gets worse.
Hate Mail and Death Threats Target Seller of Mohammed Cartoon T-shirts
Conservative t-shirt maker MetroSpy set off a firestorm when their newest design depicted a caricature of the prophet Mohammed with a bomb wrapped in his turban. According to Islamic tradition, graphic depictions of the Prophet Mohammed are forbidden. MetroSpy's apparent disregard for this tradition has outraged many in the Muslim world, prompting some to voice their displeasure by sending the company hate-filled email, online viruses and even death threats.
Johnathan Alexander, MetroSpy's production manager, says he's never seen anything like it. “It's a silly little cartoon. We've sold designs far more offensive than this for years”, referring to a t shirt which reads, “My Jesus can beat up your Allah.”
“For people to become so enraged over a drawing that they resort to burning down buildings and threatening to kill people is something I'll never understand,” Alexander said.
In one email the person writes, “We kill you and burn your shop. I am Muslim with forces in the U.S.A.” hat tip Judith
Our Freeedom of Speech is under attack and the left wing dhimmi media is as silent as they are complicit *SPIT*
Daily Illini editors suspended after publishing Danish cartoons
Two editors at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) Daily Illini student newspaper have been suspended after “breaking ranks” to republish the controversial Jyllands-Posten Muhammad cartoons, without the knowledge of the editorial board, in the February 9 edition of...
Unbelievable.......check out the editor's thought here, hope for our next generation
In the middle of Eurabia, Denmark stands tall. You gotta love, respect and admire Denmark. Planning my next vacation there. With so many dhimmi countries refusing to engage in any sporting activity with Israel here, this takes balls. I really dig that.










In other news-
Out of respect for constitutionally challenged and sensitive left the state will be changing its Indian name, Illinois, to Dhimmis Of The Mid-West. A Sharia challenge is expected from Dearborn, MI in the form of illiterate slogans projected over The Great Lakes with laser beams saying, "We to have all yur headheese up for ransom, kufirs." And, "We too be caliphate of Amerika."

One day sooner muslims who are rioting will stop and ask themselves "why the hell are we burning buildings?". They are ignorant people who follow their Imans or mullahs, and when these spiritual leaders have other agendas the little people will stop because nobody are watching them anymore. This is all about politics.

That's disgusting those two editors got suspended. I had hoped that Mary Cory would have shown more thought over this, but I see I was wrong.
I spoke on the telephone with Acton Gorton on February 13, when he and Charles Prochaska co-wrote the op-ed in the Daily Illini on why they published the pictures and that we're supposed to have freedom of speech.
Gorton told me he had to endure a half an hour tongue-lashing from his journalism prof in front of the class (that's a real jerk of a prof). Both Gorton and Prochaska are military vets and are more mature than the ivory tower folks there.
Well, the Daily Illini just might get a personal visit from an alumnus.... me.

I don't mean to sound selfish, but I hope this Fatwa doesn't delay the delivery of my t-shirt.

I angered Allah a bit myself. Seems they get mad when you threaten to burn their holy book.
