How's That Old Joke Go?

There are more Mohammeds here than a Saudi Arabian phone book. Perhaps not quite as many as in a London phone book, though...

Supporters of Jamat-e-Islami party hold placards during a protest against the reprinting of cartoons depicting Prophet Mohammad in Karachi February 27, 2008. Pakistan's upper house of parliament unanimously adopted a resolution on Tuesday condemning what it called efforts to denigrate Islam and promote hatred. The Senate was referring to cartoons of the Prophet Mohammad, first published in Danish newspapers in 2005, and a yet to be screened film in which a right-wing populist Dutch lawmaker plans to lay out his view of the Koran. The placards read: "Mohammad, peace be upon him". REUTERS/Zahid Hussein (PAKISTAN)


"Right-wing populist Dutch lawmaker?" Boogedy-boo!

More perpetual anti-Danish rage follows the fold. By my count, this is approximately 13 days of non-stop rage action from our li'l buddies in Pakistan—which is pretty impressive, even for the perpetually outraged.

As another interesting aside, notice that Pakistani Christians, acting in their full capacity as dhimmis, are starting to participate in these little seethe-fests. They just don't seem to be as into it as their first-class overlords are—I just can't imagine why.

And now, on with the fun flambée. Never gets old to me!

*"Pakistan's upper house of parliament unanimously adopted a resolution on Tuesday condemning what it called efforts to denigrate Islam and promote hatred."

So.... They're going to condemn beheadings, stonings, child-molestation and rape? Or maybe they're going to condemn violent islamic protests at the slightest provocation?

These people are so backward.
