Swedish correspondent Trond Jarle emails:
In Sweden a local artist has made three drawings of the prophet’s head on a dog.
The followers of the religion of peace start to move and begin burning flags.
Interestingly they don’t know the difference between blue (as in the blue and yellow Swedish flag) and green.
Brilliant people.
Hey … green and gold are Australia’s colours! We’ve been insulted! Let’s all throw rocks and act like idiots.
The link worked for me. Maybe it was down.

A prophets head on a dog – interesting, at least you could legally have it put down.

I’m waiting on MythBusters to do an episode on religion. I know they won’t, like the one they didn’t show on Do Pretty Girls Fart.
Religion is faith and a myth. That’s what faith is. I know I’m going to upset some people here, but that’s my two bob’s worth.
O/T but for a change its 9MSN that’s letting the work experience kid handle the editing for the weekend.
“Guns clubs target child members: report”
Its some of the silliest anti gun hysteria since the last lot.
“Gun Control Australia said a surge in young shooters could lead to a rise in violent crime.
“Guns and puberty are a dangerous mix,” said president John Crook.
“Targeting juniors increases the likelihood of gun addiction.
“The trouble with kids is that they may think that violence is a way of solving problems.”“
Strange but I dont trust an organisation that doesnt even name its officeholders.
To get an idea of how big a bunch of ratbags they are you have to look at their books they publish.
Heres one and its authors.
They give a little bio of each of the co-authors.Posted by thefrollickingmole on 2007 09 01 at 09:29 AM • permalink
Once again, the civilised world has this rubbish foisted on it by these people. Honestly, it is getting a bit tiresome. Let them burn flags, who cares, just as long as they realise that if they try to influence or force their cult on our way of life, we will bite back, much bigger than we have so far.
I’m going to use this story as an excuse to post this cartoon from last year.
The link worked fine for me. It shows the usual Rage Boys burning a pale green flag with what looks like an orange cross in the middle. Homemade by somebody who was colorblind, I guess.
Reminds me of an incident some years ago where a Filipino mob burned a homemade American flag, with fifteen stripes and some random number of stars. Close enough for their purposes I suppose, like burning someone in effigy.
Isn’t the Brazilian flag green and gold? Maybe they should riot too.

Don’t these Swedish muzzies know they’re neutral?

Actually, according to Bernard Lewis, Muslims did not distinguish between what we infidels separate as ‘blue’ and ‘green.’
By comparing written accounts with things that are still around (like the ‘Blue-green’ Mosque), it can be shown that blue is green and green is blue, to a Muslim.
Where is your cultural sensitivity?

It’s insulting enough that green and gold are also the Hizbollah flag colours.
Usurpers!
