I found this at another blog I go to often. I am posting it because from time to time the Israeli/Palestinian issue is raised here, and I wanted to offer a different point of view. "David Horowitz showed up at Emory University last night to speak at an event for Islamo-Fascism Awareness Week. Horowitz’s speech was to highlight the many atrocities committed globally (murdering gays, honor killings, sexual mutilation and outright terrorism) in the name of Islam." The entire blog entry is linked here, There is a YouTube video of the auditorium full of liberals making sure everyone can excursive >their freedom of speech.

Damn liberals

They obviously need a better intern to help them relieve some "stress".

Reminds me of when those

Reminds me of when those no-good liberals literally clowned around while the poor Nazis were trying to Save America a couple Summers ago in Olympia.

Damn the United States! I wish I may never hear of the United States again!

Why do people who use inflamatory language

like Islamo-Fascism always seem so shocked when they get a reaction?

If it is not Islamo-Fascism what is it?

One of the great non sequiturs of the left is that, if the free market doesn't work perfectly, then it doesn't work at all-- and the government should step in.

It's good old nationalism and religious fundamentalism

I'll treat Islamo-Fascism as an acceptable term when Christo-Fascism, Judeo-Fascism, and other Lamo-Fascism labels become acceptable. In the mean time I'll respect the millions of muslim brothers and sisters who just want to share this world in peace.

Like hanging gays and honor killings of women?

Sounds peaceful to me! How about a jihad on a guy for writing a book like Salman Rushdie. Yes, the religion of peace. I don't see a lot of Christians out honor killing, do you? C.

So...

Are you saying that a Christian man has never killed his wife for cheating on him, or trying to divorce or leave him? Or that Christian people haven't murdered LGBTQ's? I can show you many cases where you would be wrong if you did say that.

Christians being assholes...

does not excuse any other religion/culture being assholes.

Oh, and I think until recently it was legal in Texas to kill your spouse if you walked in on her cheating on you.

Big difference between being

Big difference between being an asshole and killing people.

I don't know about Texas, but in either Mississippi or Alabama, killing your wife and her lover is considered a crime of passion if done in the heat of the moment.

Read the bottom of the thread

What if they held a war and all the good names were already taken - like "Japs", "Krauts", "Islamo Facists" or is it one word "Islamofacists".

Maybe "Asshole" will always be available and universally accepted.

If you didn't sound so hateful your ignorance would

be cute. "A jihad on a guy?" Jihad means "stuggle." You don't struggle on a guy...well, you can, but that's not what we're talking about here. We can open another thread if you like.

yeah, jim

I'm gonna jihad all over your fa-- nevermind

What fun would it be?

I post this as I'm getting ready to leave for Leavenworth to go for a golf weekend.  The spam filter may be acting up again by the time I get back.

Hey Chris.....a little something I learned a long time ago.  When you attempt to start things with people, don't be suprised when it works.

Indeed!  A new universal

Indeed!  A new universal label for anyone who orders others to shoot each other... asshole.  Bush, Bin Laden, Olmert, Ahmadinejad, they're really all in the same boat, aren't they?  A common name is most suitable.

You'd get some really interesting crowds

at the Asshole Awareness Week events.
