The European Union continues to sanction cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed. I don't normally like to get involved in international politics, but I couldn't keep my displeasure to myself anymore.
How many times do I have to say this? It's not a cartoon if IT ISN'T FUNNY!
For Allah's sake, praise be he, I laugh more at the average Cathy, which is never. Who's writing these comics? Noam Chomsky?
Take a look at this one. Supposedly it's all over the Internet. Everyone loves it but me. I don't get it. Why is the Great Prophet replacing their holy scriptures? And why does he talk like that?
Why is this even remotely funny? Listen here, EU, shape up and get some better writers for these so-called comics. Someone like that Callahan guy. Now he is a riot! Enough with this conceptual garbage.

haha, you don't get involved in international politics. That's a good one.

It's called LolCats Osama and it's an internet meme. I think you should write a post in it about why you dislike Western Culture.

Hey, how about, "I'm a sneaky guy with a beard, stealing something from your tent."
To be honest, I'm not sure how these work. Is that how you spell mosk?

mo the terrorist who married the little kid. We know him already, rocket. Kitman and Taqiyya (you know, Islam for 'bullshit') only get you so far. The infidels are catching on.
3/23/2008 1:19 AMPiss Christ pretty "sad and pathetic". Anybody get fatwahed over that? No. There's a lesson there, but primitives stuck in the 7th century can't grasp it.
Alanis Morissette:
Actually, nobody knows how old Aisha was. Some say she was six when he married her, some say nine, some say fifteen. Everybody who claims to be any authority on it says that he waited three years to consummate the relationship. Considering that in Middle Eastern cultures it was commonplace to marry young women off as soon as they attained menarche, and considering young women in warm climates attain menarche very early, anybody wanna speculate how old Mary was when God knocked her up? And Joseph was betrothed to her, so he was a dirty old bastard too.
In any case, I'd love to know how many Islamophobes who go around slamming Muhammad for marrying Aisha could wait three years after marrying their spouses before they got it on. I've heard of married sex being an oxymoron but really, that's ridiculous, and I don't know of any Westerner who could do it unless they were severely disabled.
Another point possibly worth considering is that older men going after young girls is ILLEGAL now, yet old men do it anyway, and they abuse the girls besides. Aisha's own accounts of her life with Muhammad seem to indicate that he was nothing but respectful to her, that she assented to the marriage and that she had no regrets about her time with him. I am not about to change today's laws about who can get married at what ages, and in fact I would raise the marriage age everywhere to 18 because people take longer to grow up mentally now, but in the context of what the laws were back then, it sounds like Muhammad operated completely within the social and legal standards of his culture. And it's notable that his absolute favorite wife, his first wife Khadija, was considerably older than Muhammad and that they remained married monogamously until she died. Sorry, this just doesn't scream "pedophile" to me.
And I'm with Pseudo Bin Laden. The Muhammad cartoons aren't even funny. They read like the artist is saying, "Ha, I can say mean things about your prophet, neener neener neener!" (How do you say "neener" in Danish anyway?) I saw one of them and my three-year-old can draw better than that. If we have to have a worldwide debate about free speech vis-a-vis depictions of Muhammad, why do they have to break out over pieces of crap that can't even properly be called comic art?
