 RetweetReligion of Tolerance Screams for Teddy Bear Execution

Fri, Nov 30, 2007 at 8:22:59 am PST

It’s Friday, the Islamic day of prayer, and that means that thousands of Muslims in Sudan are screaming for the death of Gillian Gibbons and her heinous teddy bear of blasphemy: Thousands in Sudan Call for British Teddy Bear Teacher’s Execution.

KHARTOUM, Sudan — Thousands of Sudanese, many armed with clubs and knives, rallied Friday in a central square and demanded the execution of a British teacher convicted of insulting Islam for allowing her students to name a teddy bear “Muhammad.”

The protesters streamed out of mosques after Friday sermons, as pickup trucks with loudspeakers blared messages against Gillian Gibbons, the teacher who was sentenced Thursday to 15 days in prison and deportation. She avoided the more serious punishment of 40 lashes.

They massed in central Martyrs Square outside the presidential palace, where hundreds of riot police were deployed. They did not try to stop the rally, which lasted about an hour. “Shame, shame on the U.K.,” protesters chanted.

The protesters called for Gibbons’ execution, saying, “No tolerance: Execution,” and “Kill her, kill her by firing squad.”

"Imprisoning this lady does not satisfy the thirst of Muslims in Sudan. But we welcome imprisonment and expulsion," the cleric, Abdul-Jalil Nazeer al-Karouri, a well-known hard-liner, told worshippers.

Blood, however, would be much better.

"This an arrogant woman who came to our country, cashing her salary in dollars, teaching our children hatred of our Prophet Muhammad," he said.

Sudan Teddy Case Stalls 'Tickle Me Muhammad' Launch

(2007-11-30) — As a Sudanese court handed down a 15-day jail sentence for a British women convicted of allowing school children to name a teddy bear after The Prophet of Islam, Mattel Toys announced today it would delay the launch of its much-anticipated ‘Tickle Me Muhammad’ toy line.

A Mattel spokesman said the Sudan teddy bear case has caused the company to “rethink the propriety of the planned pre-Christmas release of Tickle Me Muhammad,” which it described as “a cuddly adorable friend, with a long plush beard and a puffy turban, who laughs uncontrollably when you touch him almost anywhere.”

“We really thought it would help soften the image of Muslims,” said the unnamed Mattel source, “and help to bring about the peaceful world order which they have been fighting for almost non-stop over the past 1,400 years.”

Spontaneous protest in Sudan?

Why is the teddy bear incident going on the exact same time as...

UN Chief Urges Agreement on Darfur Force


UNITED NATIONS (AP) — U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said Thursday he is "mobilizing all possible means" to get the Sudanese government's agreement on key issues so a 26,000-strong peacekeeping force can start deploying in Darfur in January.

Ban told reporters that he had "firm commitments" from Sudan's President Omar al-Bashir that the government would facilitate the deployment of the joint U.N.-African Union force but "still we have not yet been able to resolve all these administrative things."

"I'm disappointed with all that is happening now," he said. "I'm now working with all possible means — and mobilizing all possible means. ... I hope that the Sudanese government will come to agree as soon as possible."

U.N. peacekeeping chief Jean-Marie Guehenno warned the Security Council on Tuesday that the Sudanese government is putting up numerous obstacles to the deployment of the so-called "hybrid" force that could destroy the effectiveness of the joint AU-U.N. mission.

Totally off topic: There is an organization called "Avaaz" that is doing a poll on the post-Annapolis chances for Middle East "peace".

[Link: avaaz-annapolis.questionpro.com...]

or

[Link: www.avaaz.org...]

So far the results seem to be dominated by moonbats. For one example, 47% of the respondents think the Arab League should be a mediator in the "peace negotiations". And of course about 90% of them think it should be the UN.

Please go take the poll and let's hope we can balance the responses a little bit.

Thanks,

"This an arrogant woman who came to our country, cashing her salary in dollars, teaching our children hatred of our Prophet Muhammad,"

That's quite the mental stretch- naming a toy is now teaching hate. If that's the case, I suggest the people don't know one emotion from the next. They hold in contempt what they're told to desire, and to hate the infidel is to love allah. That could make almost anyone an emotional train wreak- completely twisted.

So remember- the next time you travel to a muslim country- an innocent faux pas mixed with islam can cause death.

ISTANBUL, Turkey (AP) - A Christian cleric who was abducted earlier this week in southeast Turkey was rescued Friday by security forces, a friend said.

Assyrian cleric Daniel Savci was rescued in the province of Batman two days after he was abducted in nearby Mardin province, Gabriel Akkurt, another Assyrian cleric, told The Associated Press.

The situation is so ridiculous that even some moonbats have noticed:

The Archbishop of Canterbury has led mounting criticism of Sudan following her conviction for insulting Islam. Rowan Williams launched a stinging attack on the decision, branding it "self-destructive absurdity". He said: "I can't see any justification for this at all. I think this is an absurdly disproportionate response to what is at worst a cultural faux pas. "I think that it has done the Sudanese government no credit whatever to allow this prosecution to proceed. What I see in this situation is a sort of primitivist and crude application of the law in a spirit of real insensitivity and self-destructive absurdity."

BoxBux Sux as Stix Hix Nix Xmas Flix

Los Angeles - Despite critical acclaim and massive promotional budgets, a wave of anti-Santa holiday pictures floundered at the box office over the Thanksgiving opening weekend, leading some entertainment industry analysts to question whether Hollywood had overestimated the American public's loathing for the Claus administration and a seemingly endless shopping season.

"I'm not sure what went wrong," said Jeff Bell of the MPAA after the release of the weekend Nielsen/EDI movie box office figures. "With all the griping you hear about the holidays, it stood to reason that people would flock to theaters for a chance to vent their hatred at that fat red fascist bastard. I blame illegal downloaders."

Whatever the reason, the financial results were grim.

"Kringle's List," starring George Clooney, Matt Damon, and Julia Roberts in a cautionary tale of rogue elf agents inside the North Pole's illegal Naughty and Nice wiretapping operation, led the pack of anti-Claus releases with weekend receipts of $68,500, for a $26 per-screen average. The film's take was only good for a #34 showing overall, just behind the limited arthouse re-release of the 1965 Don Knotts classic "The Incredible Mr. Limpet," but studio spokesman Rob Foulet said the film could eventually recoup its $180 million production budget through strong word-of-mouth and a new advertising campaign that downplays the film's elfin geopolitical psychodrama in favor of Miss Roberts' breasts.

Islamists the world over are going to whine and seethe as they leave the mosques today. Isn't it curious how they brandish the knives and scream for vengance on Fridays after every slightest affront.

Heck, the woman didn't even name the frickin' bear. Her students did. This trumped up crime and punishment shows just how insecure the Islamists are - but it's effective. Killing in the name of Islam is a protected right. It gets results. And the Islamists spread their messages of hatred and subjugation of all non Muslims (and all Muslims who aren't as Islamist as they are).

What we would like to see from the Brits but won't.

Dear Sudanese state barbarians,

"In Britain, we have a tradition of protecting our citizens (rather than murdering them using deniable militias); indeed, we have mounted monumentally expensive expeditions for the sole purpose of doing just that. So here's the beef...

"Let our countrywoman go, right fucking now, or we will immediately cease all aid for the next year. This will cost you about £113 million. There will be no relenting and you can just fucking starve: besides, why the fuck the British taxpayers are spending £5.7 million on Governance Support on your mass-murdering, genocidal junta anyway, I just don't know.

"By the way, you know how we are pulling troops out of Iraq? Well, no one wants to be hasty but there are a hell of a lot of people in Britain clamouring for us to 'do something' about the massacres in Darfur. Just saying is all.

"Now she'd better be on the next flight, or we'll get all 21st century weapons tech on your arse."

And, let's face it, even that could be phrased more bluntly.

93 rnf  Fri, Nov 30, 2007 8:42:27am

Americans are lucky to live where they do, and that has started to make them too complacent. Little respect for the freedoms they are blessed with. It's a sad state of affairs. ...sighs

The operative words of the story are:

The protesters streamed out of mosques after Friday sermons, as pickup trucks with loudspeakers blared messages against Gillian Gibbons

How many news stories originating in Muslim countries have we seen start out with those words? How often do we read stories that start out: Hundreds of thousands of protesting rioters spilled out of Sunday morning church services? Or hundreds of thousands of rioting protesters poured out of Bhuddist temples? Or hundreds of thousands rioting protesters poured out of shul following Sabbath services?

These people are not people. They are animals masquerading as people, and the imams are responsible. For the sake of maintaining their power, the imams whip these ignorant, superstitious thugs into a frenzy, then send them out to murder, loot and burn.

Take a good look, they'll all be driving cabs in Minneapolis next week.


This, from one who lives in that Minneapolis:

I had good evidence the other day, that my mind has not yet embraced the infestation of that "rage" in mine own country:

Entering a freeway, I was literally crowded onto the shoulder and nearly into a bridge abutment, by a semi-trucker who did far more than not allow any segueing...

I thought to catch up to him to see what kind of a person it could be who would do such a mean thing...and the whole time it took me to catch up, I was thinking, "Either an older bitter guy, or a young angry man..."

I say truthfully, that it was a shock to see what I know to my core was a black Islam-ite, looking at me --and, there was a touch of fear in his face, even, to see me, a white, American woman, having caught up and eyeballing him...

Thank you for calling the Foreign Office Condemnation Hotline. Your swivel-eyed, irrational complaint is important to us, so we've introduced an automated system to handle your frothing rage more effectively.

Before you select an option, you should know that calls cost £5/minute and may be recorded, replayed and mocked for entertainment purposes. When you hear the option you require, mash the relevant number with your balled, angry fist.

Dial #1 if you're French, and want to harangue someone about Waterloo
Dial #2 if Gordon Brown makes you want to lose your lunch
Dial #3 if you've got a vague air of grievance and want to torch your local British embassy
Dial #4 if you went abroad and someone looked at you funny
Dial #5 if you've been 'unjustly' arrested for destroying Vilnius on a stag weekend
Dial #6 if you don’t like the fact that the British people don’t like the EU
Dial #7 if some of 'them' have moved in next door
Dial #8 if you can't buy Weetabix abroad
Dial #9 if you're the Sudanese dictator err President and want to suck up to hard line islamofascists

You've chosen #9. You now have three further options.

Dial #1 to sod off
Dial #2 to realise that nobody knows who the hell you are
Dial #3 to order your Bumper Protest Box, consisting of fifteen flammable Union Jacks, two clumsily-made effigies that could be Gillian Gibbons but could just as easily be Rolf Harris, twenty copies of 'The Satanic Verses' with the naughty bits in nice big type and a Book of Mad Things to Chant at the TV Cameras.

Watch them, catch them unawares,
And see them picnic on their holiday.
See them gaily dance about.

And never have any cares.
At six o'clock their mommies and daddies
Will take them home to bed
Because they're tired little teddy bears.

I mean how many Christians have you seen out in the streets rioting over the upcoming movie, "The Golden Compass?" Or demanding that the author of the trilogy the movie is based on be executed by firing squad? When was the last time you saw Jews doing this kind of thing? (And, no, I'm not interested in hearing about the Crusades, or the OT Book of Kings. This is a teddy bear---a TOY! I doubt that even the most ruthless crusader, or Maccabbee would have lost it over a blasted TOY!)

148 pleaseandthankyou  Fri, Nov 30, 2007 9:08:45am

In this culture, to reveal that you cannot take an insult shows that you have weak faith in the think being insulted. In other words, if something is profoundly strong and true, then it cannot be impugned by any insult large or small. To allow the naming of a teddy bear (which by the way is an a toy that represents love) to insult your religion, and cause you to seethe with anger, violence and hatred, shows just how weak your faith really is. This is the cultural equivalent of a 5 year hitting wanting to hit his sister because she called him a name.

It should also be noted that the so-called "people of tolerance", the liberals, will defend those calling for the execution of this teacher, before they will defend their own country.

I do wonder when the moderate Moslem's will step up and reject this filth. Do they exist? Did they exist, but were eliminated as 'Israeli informers", or have they gone public but not gotten any coverage from the MSM? If not the latter, someday they will regret their shyness.

It does strike me that the position of this "Islamic Court" finding about Mohammad, sort of puts a lot of responsibility for acting correctly on everyone with that name. If you act badly, and your name is Mohammad you should receive capital punishment period.

The only ones hurting the image of Islam around the world are Muslims.
A religion of peace? say's who? the actions of Muslims in every Islamic nation prove otherwise. why do we still insist that it is a peaceful religion when the only Muslims who are actually remotely peaceful live in the West and would be called blasphemers and infidels themselves for not following the true teachings of the Quran?
so called Muslims in the West are barely Muslims by Islamic standards yet we hold them as the standard of what Islam truly is and disregard the hateful violent actions of those who live in the holy lands and the Middle East as just a few fanatics. how can this be? if you look at the top Imams in the middle East , look at the popular consensus among Muslims in the Islamic world and take their penchant for death , calling for the murder of pretty much anybody for anything and we see true Islam. if the Muslims in the M.E and their clerics and leaders such as Ahmadinejad, the ayatollah's don't represent real Islam then what does? the so called blasphemers in the west who dress western and barely even go to the mosque, yet are peaceful and tolerant? they are a fraction of a percent of the real Islam amd yet we hold them up as the Muslims of muhammad and his peaceful teachings? peaceful and tolerant?

insane!

what we see with this Teddy bear incident and the actions all over the Muslim world in reaction to cartoons and everything else represent true Islam and true Muslims.

we need to stop fooling ourselves, before it's too late .

If Muslims worldwide won't stop it it is because of two things
1. they are afraid cause they know the truth
2. they are sympathetic

either way it is they who are controlling their ultimate faith.

U.S. suspects Pakistan nukes ended in Syria

The United States is concerned that centrifuges sold to North Korea by Pakistan in the 1990s may have been passed on to Syria or another country, current and former U.S. officials said yesterday.

Pakistan has acknowledged that renegade scientist Abdul Qadeer Khan sold North Korea the centrifuges, which the United States suspects were intended for use to enrich uranium for a clandestine nuclear-weapons program.

But Pyongyang, which has never admitted to having a uranium-based program, has told U.S. officials that it does not possess the centrifuges, raising doubts whether North Korea will be truthful* when it declares its nuclear programs, probably in the next few days.

I had the same thought
is their religion so weak it can't stand up to small insults?

but two things:

1) yes, their religion is weak
2) they only look for things to protest about, and once the "deciders" decide, the minions obey

3) they can't allow "disrespect," because once it starts, it will cascade
there's a lot to laugh at, even moreso than Sam Kinnison had on Jesus

Remeber that MSM report that NATO mistakenly bombed a road crew in Af'stan, killing 5 civilian workers? Well...

ISAF statement on Nuristan air strike

KABUL, Afghanistan – Statement by Brig. Gen. Carlos Branco, ISAF Spokesman, regarding the Nov. 26 precision air strike targeting a Taliban leader in Nuristan Province:
"Evidence so far collected by ISAF investigators strongly points to a successful air strike earlier this week against a known Taliban leader in Nurgaram District of Nuristan Province and that there were no civilian casualties. We took extraordinary means to ensure that the intended target and only the intended target was hit.

Post-strike reconnaissance both from the air and on the ground reveal that the closest construction encampment was more than one kilometer from the target site. There was also no construction equipment or materials at the target site which would indicate the presence of any construction workers in the area. On the night of Monday, 26 November, Afghan National Security Forces and ISAF soldiers tracked the movements of Abdullah Jan, a key Taliban leader in Nuristan and five of his followers, from a cave complex to the tent which was hit by the precision air strike. Jan had been positively identified by multiple means.

Five bodies were recovered at the target site by workers from the Amerifa road building firm on Tuesday and taken to the Nuristan District Center. We are trying to verify reports that on Tuesday, the Amerifa employees said the bodies were those of Taliban insurgents, but that on Wednesday, the employees claimed the bodies were those of their fellow workers.

The incident remains under investigation but it is our belief that once all the evidence is in, the conclusion will be a successful strike against a known Taliban leader with no civilian casualties."

Another Taliban propaganda operation swallowed by the MSM. Retractions anybody?

Ms. Gibbons is mostly screwed in any case...I wonder if there are some imams that will attempt to whip up their flocks to storm the prison where she is being held in order to mete out their own brand of Islamic "justice". Even if she makes it back to Britain alive, she's still a marked woman in the eyes of the jihadis...think Salman Rushdie or Ayaan Hirsi Ali. The only way she's gonna have a fighting chance to live out a semi-normal life is come to America, perhaps somewhere in the South or Midwest.

The seething, duplicitous, and murderous Islamists are pretty much like the Terminator (one of my favorite films), as Reese was describing them to Sarah Connor in the first movie:

Absurdity and ignorance appears to be the rule in Islam. What is a name? Think about the the surnames like Smith, Taylor, Baker, Cooper, Berg, Von (insert name of town after) just as an example. These names defined who you were or from what area or town you were born. Muslims who take umbrage in the perversion of the name Mohammad, should look into a mirror and especially if they are so named after Mohammad, and ask themselves if they living their lives worthy of that name, if that name veritably represents "The Religion of Peace".

How about this: Christians should also be offended similarly if it is truly right to take offense in a name's misuse by the fact that there are many Hispanic males named "Jesus". We should react and riot out in the streets as well because many a "Jesus" have committed murders, rape, robbery among other crimes.

Again, if you control the masses, fill their minds full of lies and deceit, keep education relegated towards serving the religion, and the governments, well just look up at the top of this page to observe the result of such control and disillusion.

So remember- the next time you travel to a muslim country- an innocent faux pas mixed with islam can cause death.

That's why I don't travel to France.

I love it when Americans refer to a particular section of British society ie moonbats. If this comment was uttered to a Brit anywhere it would be answered with the five finger response or worse depending on the degree of nutjob the Brit was.

Just stating something that is as plain as the nose of yer face.

I was making a reference to the decision makers in the British Government, not British society at large. Sorry, I should have been more specific.

Just checked eBay to see how the Mohammad Bear auction was coming. Apparently it is not.

It stated that the item was no longer available. The following notice was posted:

This listing (270192422059) has been removed or is no longer available. Please make sure you entered the right item number.
If the listing was removed by eBay, consider it canceled. Note: Listings that have ended more than 90 days ago will no longer appear on eBay.

re: #175 Eric

I never thought "Piss Christ" and other affronts to Christianity merited death. Jesus is bigger than that, is Muhammad not?

Muhammad comes off as so insecure that in the Quran instead of just talking about Hellfire in generalities of who will go there, actual individual enemies are specified--it's just weird. For ex, in the following verse where the part is translated "Father of Flame," that's actually the name of a person, Muhammad's uncle and enemy Abu Lahab (if you have a Quran with a transliteration column you can see that):

Perish the hands of the Father of Flame! Perish he! No profit to him for all his wealth, and all his gains! Burnt soon will he be in a Fire of blazing Flame! His wife shall carry the (cracklin) wood - as fuel! -A twisted rope of palm-leaf fibre round her (own) neck! - Quran 111:1-5

Then here on LGF there's a lizard named marwan's daughter--well, her namesake (per Muhammad's request) was killed because of her poetry.

re: #245 talon_262

I'd have to agree with GreenSoccer...Sudan has to know that, if Ms. Gibbons is harmed, they're going to be in a world of shit if the British retaliate. The question is: Will the British government have the balls to do so? So far, they haven't given me much hope...

Sorry, they already know that the British will not retaliate, out of "sensitivity" for Sudan's "laws" and "cultural sovereignty". The British will call it a tragedy, then put the blame squarely on Ms. Gibbons' shoulders for not being "respectful enough" of the local customs where she chose to teach.

Basically, the Brits without Blair are poncy hairdressers too afraid of their own home-grown jihad problem to risk an international incident with another Muslim nation.


You're a f*cking arsehat.

Sorry - but you are. It has to be said (through my stoic British stiff upper lips)

I've had enough of idiotic, shit-for-brains, hicks who know bugger all about the Brits but craps all over us anyway.

Luckily I've been to America enough times to realise that rednecks like that are the exception not the rule. Every American I've met (even the sodding moonbats) recognise and appreciate an ally (perhaps America's only remaining ally).

The few anti-Brit prats on LGF can sit and their trailers with their prejudices. They are no better than America-hating Eurotrash leftists, but should know better than anyone, how important it is for us to pull together and focus on the enemy.

no worries mate, this type of euphemism is used a lot in here, mostly unintentional but sometimes not.

A lot of people over here are effing embarrassed by the silence of our government over the matter. The simple fact is they aren't up for the job. You just need to look at the current Foreign Secretary, the most senior UK member of government who would deal with this issue, he looks like he's still got a teddy himself!

And the original Rage Boy gets a nice fat residual check for every riot attended by one of his franchise reps.

That's good news. Although I still would like some harriers flying over Sudan, just to make their governemnt sweat a little.

This situation needs a good quote "You say that it is your custom to burn widows people who insult Islam. Very well. We also have a custom: when men burn a woman alive, we tie a rope around their necks and we hang them. Build your funeral pyre; beside it, my carpenters will build a gallows. You may follow your custom. And then we will follow ours"

Note to self:

If ever I should be so unfortunate as to live in an Islamic country (God forbid!) I shall be SURE to remember to stay home with doors and windows locked on Fridays. That's when the wild-eyed imams wind up their little Muslim-bots and send them out to seethe and riot due to the most current "insult" to their pagan god or his megalomaniac prophet.

Fair enough. In that case, I humbly apologize for my STFU comment.

I was under the impression that the troop levels would be severely reduced, at least in Iraq. Afghanistan is a lost cause. The new Afghani government we all helped set up is just Taliban-lite. We're just helping one faction of jihadis kill another. Of course, that's a whole different bottle of whine, and I'm trying not to derail this thread any further.

Sorry for getting out of my pram.

We actually have a Labour Party government in power, so it's a bit of a miracle they are as dedicated as they have been.

Labour are traditionally Britain's socialist party, but as most Brits are conservative in nature, the only reason they got into power was Tony Blair. Blair was a breath of fresh air - evoking the spirit of Margaret Thatcher and pissing off the socialist old guard with his New Labour creed.

Sadly not we have Brown, who not totally evil, is a bit of a pudding.

The Conservative Party are trying to reverse engineer Tony Blair success by choosing a Liberal, Greeny like David Cameron. They don't realise that it doesn't work the other way.

It's been a bad week for Islam, and if even militant front groups like the MCB & MPACUK are attacking this example of "shariah in action" you know its serious. Less and less Brits are willing to give the ROP the benefit of doubt. The shit's hit the fans again and they know it.

291 Lizard by the Bay  Fri, Nov 30, 2007 11:03:27am

The "Tories" is a nickname for the Conservatives, like the GOP for the Republicans.

294 uptight  Fri, Nov 30, 2007 11:08:36am

The Tories are the Conservative Party. Just as the GOP is the Republican Party.

They will win the next elections, but I have serious doubts about their leader, David Cameron. He's way too Liberal. Way too concerned about the environment, multiculturalism and other socialist memes.

If it's just a ploy to grab moonbat votes, its misguided. The left are about as likely to vote for a soft conservative as they would vote for John McCain.

If it's not a ploy, then I'm really worried. It's this lack of choice in politics that caused the rise of the BNP.

should not the kid be executed by a firing squad?

305 luckygirl  Fri, Nov 30, 2007 7:48:16pm

I think they should turn her out into the streets to meet the popular demand for execution. This is a new position for me based upon:

Mrs Gibbons' son added: "I don't want the verdict to lead to any anti feeling towards Muslims."
[Link: devilskitchen.me.uk...]

She obviously raised her son to care more about a fanatic, murderous and fantastically based ideology more than the life and educational devotions of his own mother.

If I need to apologize, I do. I am just tired of people hand feeding a monster and then expecting outside intervention when they find themselves served up upon the plate.

I would assume in these situations that government officials would be in contact with the family and help handle the media. What the boy had said sounds like he's being briefed.

I could imagine the thinking about it, use psychology to put pressure on the Sudanese authorities , if the son can be merciful why can't you?

re: #306 cagney

Are you asking why I can't be merciful towards these rioting Muslims? Because that is what the son is advocating. I will not be merciful of people who voluntarily embrace a belief system that is based on intolerance of all others outside that system (and a great many within the system as well). And being "merciful" and lenient with such offenders merely perpetuates the escalating boldness of their barbarity.

I do not believe in mercy. I believe in a calm, rational and reason-based (not faith-based) system of merit with an application of appropriate award and punitive measures.
