"Muslims Angry" as a headline is just like saying "Kennedy Still Dead" or "Bush Screws up Speech"

Who gives a **** any more?

It is the media as much as anything. Islam is very decentralized so any time any tiny little group gets pissed about anything it is a headline.

T.O. should become a muslim. Then the headlines could read "Islam gets 88 yards for the cowboys" or "Islam has skanky whore publicist".

Why does the headline read "Muslim Fury"? Looks to me like so far it's nothing more than words, which is totally acceptable.

Call me when they burn something down about this.

Race clashes hit Windsor

Extra police are being drafted into the Windsor area today after three nights of violent clashes between white and Asian youths.

Gangs have fought battles in the streets using baseball bats and pitchforks. A Muslim-run dairy which wants to build a mosque was petrol bombed.

***

Tensions have been growing between residents and the owners of the dairy, who have applied to convert an office building into a mosque for their workers.

***

Residents said gangs of Asian youths travelled from Slough to fight the white gang. One youth was reportedly arrested for carrying a 12-inch knife.

Dairy manager Sikander Khan, 50, said the 50 predominantly Asianworkers at the dairy were now worried about their safety.

***

The unrest came the day after David Cameron waded into the debate over multiculturalism, saying there could be no place for communities living "parallel lives" in Britain.
in a country being invaded by an ideology which does not comport well with assimilation, hooligans may the only thing saving britain today.

maybe i'm wrong & jack straw's nuts have finally dropped, even if he is picking on girls.

and now lego-makers are atwitter due to backlash over some of their videos mocking mo:

COPENHAGEN, Denmark - Videos showing anti-immigrant party members mocking the Prophet Muhammad were pulled from Web sites Monday as two youths seen in the clips were reported in hiding and the Foreign Ministry warned Danes against travel to much of the Middle East.

Muslim clerics from Egypt and Indonesia condemned the video broadcast in Denmark last week showing members of the Danish People's Party youth wing with cartoons of a camel wearing the head of Muhammad and beer cans for humps. A second drawing placed a turbaned, bearded man next to a plus sign and a bomb, all equaling a mushroom cloud.

Citing critical media reports from many Muslim regions, the Foreign Ministry cautioned against travel to Gaza, the West Bank, Saudi Arabia, Lebanon, Jordan, Egypt, Iraq, Iran, Syria and Turkey.

"Against that background, we urge Danes to use caution as the matter could possibly lead to negative reactions. The atmosphere and reactions can vary dependent on time and place. Danes should be aware of the local mood," the ministry said.

The video was produced by an artists' group, Defending Denmark. In a message posted along with the video, the group said it had infiltrated the Danish People's Party Youth, known as DFU, for 18 months "to document (their) extreme right wing associations."

"This is not an example of something that is meant to provoke. This is an example to show how things are in Danish politics," artist Martin Rosengaard Knudsen told Danish public radio.

The clip was removed from that broadcaster's Web site Monday, as well as from a newspaper's site.

The purpose of the original publication was "not to insult Muslims or expose any members ... to any danger," said the paper's editor, David Trads.

A party official reportedly said that two youths seen in the video clips had gone into hiding.

"They are very shaken by the huge reaction the drawings have had," Kenneth Kristensen was quoted as saying on the Web site of the newspaper Politiken.

In Jordan on Monday, a powerful umbrella for some 200,000 professionals including engineers, doctors and journalists, said the video "reveals hatred toward the Prophet who came to the world with a message to enlighten the people."

"We call on all Muslim states to sever relations with Denmark or any other country which harms Islam," the associations said in a statement.

Ahh, It was just a delayed reaction:

Protesters hurl petrol bombs at Danish mission in Iran

TEHRAN (Reuters) - Dozens of protesters pelted the Danish embassy in Tehran with stones and petrol bombs on Tuesday after Danish television broadcast footage deemed insulting to the Muslim Prophet Mohammad, witnesses said.

Denmark's state TV aired footage on Friday of a number of members of the youth wing of the anti-immigrant Danish People's Party (DPP) drawing cartoons in August mocking the Prophet. Iran condemned the broadcast.

Reuters witnesses said protesters hurled stones and petrol bombs into the embassy compound. The crowd chanted "Down with Zionists" and "God praise the party of God".

Riot police guarded the embassy and two fire trucks stood nearby. Firefighters extinguished a tire which was set alight next to the embassy compound wall, the witnesses said.

So what if a cloud floats by that kind of looks like mohammad?

Or what if you draw a stick figure and write "Prophet Mohammad" next to it?

Or what if you named your kid "Prophet Muhammad" and took a picture of him?

Or what if an image of the prophet mohmammemed shows up on a grilled cheese? Who pays for that?

good to see we don't have the market cornered on rednecks.

btw, the correct terminology for danish cartoon fueled islamophobia is "the holocaust":
Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said:
“The leaders of some nations jail scholars who deny the Holocaust, (but) on the other hand they keep silent towards those who insult the great prophet of Islam on the pretext of freedom,”
but back on topic of mr straw's well-founded position on the burka:
Suspect in terror hunt used veil to evade arrest
A MALE suspect in a major anti-terrorist investigation in Britain escaped capture by allegedly disguising himself as a Muslim woman dressed in a burka, The Times can reveal.

The man, who was wanted in connection with serious terrorist offences, evaded arrest for several days as police searched for him across the country.

The fact that a fugitive remained at large after disguising himself in an Islamic dress which covered his face will further fuel the debate sparked by Jack Straw, Leader of the House of Commons, about the wearing of the veil.​
oh, just to keep it going:
