A picture taken 16 May 2004 shows British-Indian author Salman Rushdie and his wife Padma Lakshmi arriving for the projection of a movie at the Cannes Film Festival. Rushdie said the West has failed to grasp how much of Islamic terror is rooted in men's fear of women's sexuality, in an interview to be published 19 January 2006 in German magazine "Stern". AFP PHOTO/BORIS HORVAT Here is an excerpt:Rushdie told German weekly magazine Stern that his latest novel, "Shalimar the Clown," dealt with the deep anxiety felt among many Islamic men about female sexual freedom and lost honor.
When asked if the book drew a link between "Islamic terror and damaged male honor," Rushdie said he saw it as a crucial, and often overlooked, point. "The Western- Christian world view deals with the issues of guilt and salvation, a concept that is completely unimportant in the East because there is no original sin and no savior," the author said, in comments printed in German.
"Instead, great importance is given to 'honor.' I consider that to be problematic. But of course it is underestimated how many Islamists consciously or unconsciously attempt to restore lost honor."

Shocking photos of Muslim violence against French women on the streets of Paris
Has anyone seen these in the MSM? I haven't:
It's hard to believe that this sort of thing can go on in broad daylight, in Paris. I would hate to think about what happens in less protected areas at night. Apparently, these Islamic thugs like to indulge in something called "tournantes" (French casual word meaning collective rapes), where a group of 30 or more men capture and kidnap a French girl, often extremely young...
These gang rapes committed by gangs of Muslim youth have been reported not only in France, but in Denmark and other European countries as well.

Welcome to Paristan, Eurabia.

Will anyone wake up and decide that this entire religion is a time bomb ready to blow. Any Muslim no matter what they say is capable of distorting that "holy book" its not worth the paper its printed on. No other book in the history of man has caused more death and destruction.
They violently para phrase it to suit their needs.
Islam as a whole needs to be eliminated if we ever expect peace on earth.
I believe that if we eliminated all other religions and left islam as the only true belief. Violence and mayhem would still flourish.
Islam has become the "time bomb" it is today because it is failing to relate to the modern world. For it to do so, it would have to adapt, which would require change. That's extremly threatening to the totalitarians who maintain the status quo.
I don't think it's possible to eliminate an entire religion, but it is possible to insist on reform. I belive the best way to start to do that is to not tolerate the barbarism. Barbarians see tolerance as weakness, but they respect strength. If that is the only language they understand, then that is how they must be dealt with.
In Euprope, the communists are aiding the Muslims, which is tragic. If you look at the link Welcome to Paristan, Eurabia, you can see pictures of communist polititians supporting the rioters.
In Iran, Communists and Socialists also united with Muslim fundamentalists to overthrow the Shaw. They didn't forsee that the Ayatolla Khomeni would install a theocracy and liquidate Communists, Socialists and liberals once they were no longer useful. European communists have learned nothing from this.
Islam can be dealt with, but it will require strength and unity by the west. Insofar as the Islamists see that we are not united in strength, they will be emboldened to attack us.
Strength absolutely is the only thing Muslims respect. They don't even respect their own mothers, sisters or wives!
You asked "has anyone seen anything about this on the MSM?" I certainly haven't. My husband watches more of the news than I do, so I asked him. I showed him the pictures you posted here. He was shocked. He hasn't heard anything about it, and trust me, if he hasn't seen it, it's not being covered!
Excellent post, Chas. It makes me angrier than I already am, but it's good to get this stuff out, so thank you.
Gayle,
I probably need to post some more NICE things once in a while! This stuff makes me angry, too; reading about it is sometimes overwhelming. But since you won't hear about it in the MSM, and it's stuff we need to know about, I feel obligated to share bits of it as I read about it.
It's nasty, but forewarned is forearmed. May we never become as weak as France has, where they can't even protect women on the streets of Paris in broad daylight in front of TV cameras.
Apostates from Islam have been executed for 1400 years in accord with the Koran and the words and actions of the Islamic prophet Mohammed and Islamic law, Sharia.
