"Sir" Salman Rushdie: Day of RAGE Edition

Today's the day we've all been waiting for! I'll be documenting the worldwide rage from the Ummah here as photos come in, so be sure to check back every now and then!

VICTORY! It seems that Islamic Rage Boy is joining the anti-Rushdie festivities after all!

Remember folks, these photos will be coming in all day long. I'll be doing my best to keep up with the flow, but be sure to keep checking back here and reloading every now and then for fresh fun and excitement!

This one is my pick for the day, so far! Hahahah!


In case you get bored, be sure to check out the growing collection of Serial Outrager Parodies, featuring our little friend above!

Status: As of 14:30 EDT, the hottest fires are burning in Pakistan and Kashmir and now, Londonistan. We've also seen a few pictures from Iran, and a brief mention of Indonesia as well, but no big protests so far.

Update: I think this comment, which was just posted to the Day Two thread, is the best:

BOO HOO HOO! MY WITTWE FEEWINGS ARE HURT!
the most tragic and really grave incident of this century... is attacks on a religion,directly or indirectly..the focus is just islaam..n the people who highlight and say about this fact are termed as fanatic..
the action starts from 9|11 attacks ,only blames with no evidences..it was definately a bad incident... but actions n just actions on islam..we can only protest and even if we try that..who doesnt want to sacrifice hislife for his religion and,what is the use of those eyes which cannot stop other devil's eye on his religion..that hand which cannot stop otheR attacking HAND....
to raise a voice for just is right on all religion..killing other person for self defence is not a crime in any relifion so how can defending one's religion is crime anywhere...
we are called as fanatist,terrOrorist...
we are attacked various times verbally or by different means.. we respect all religions...
still the topic is unrevealed to you...i m surprised..
the innumerable attacks... including the latest one.GREAT BRITIAN AWARDS SALNAN RUSHDI TILE OF SIR... AMAZING..FROM GREAT BRITAIN..
THE SAME PERSON WHICH HAS TO BE GIVEN PENALTY OR HANGED IS BEING AWARDED...yeah..forgiveness...only comes to muslims..our religion teaches love ANYONE for ALLAH AND HIS prophet,hatred for ALLAH AND HIS LAST BELOVED Prophet..
I HAVE NOT KNOWN AND HAVENT SEEN HIM BUT GOD IS EVIDENT I DONT EVEN WANT TO SEE HIM...I PRAY TO GOD I MAY NEVER SEE HIM.. AT MY PIOSITION ANY ONE WOULD SAY THIS..
WE MUSLIMS COULD HAVE ASKED FOR HIS PENALtY and killing for the devil's companion..but look at us we are just saying not to award him the title "sir'...can't we be granted as that ..y we are being treated like that..give me any example when a muslim Ruler has done this to any other reiligion AWRDING A PERSON WHO HAS ATTACKED OTHER RELIGION ???? still we are fanatist..
in the consequences..sir title would be seen as the most devilish title and people who have got this and will be given..if they would have love for their religion..which is obvious..would never accept it.. people respect other religions..
it is not the world matter... religion is not a personal matter now its for all....IF THIS IS WAY OF GETTING THE TITLE OF "SIR"USE BAD LANGUAGE FOR OHTER PROPHET AND GET A TITLE IS THE RULE????
we muslims are most respectful to other religions...but we dont have tolerance for wrongdoings. religion..
musilm's eyes brought in tears for years...
not an opology would work for it,a promise from all to all people never blame other religion,never use BAD WORDS FOR OTHER PROPHET,..and people who do this would be given penalTy,SEVERE PUNISHMENT just one law to practice,n peace,love for ALL....IT BRINGS TEARS OF BLOOD.....

WHAT SHOULD WE CALL THIS INCIDENT"REWARDING A DEVIL TITLE OF SIR" .THEN IT IS A TIME TO WAKEUP..N SEE HOW GREAT BRITAIN REWARD PEOPLE WHO ARE FANATIST AND TERRORIST..IS IT MY PERSONAL OPINION??? SEE,LOOK WITHOUT BEING BIASED..
I CANNOT EVEN SAY WHAT IF SOMEONES DOES TO UR RELIGION
N HE IS BEING WARDED LIKE THAT...??TO ME ITS EVEN VERY HURTING..BUT ONCE THE FINGER IS AT UR POSITION..U MIGHT HAVE WRUITTEN MORE THAT THAT... BUT MY IDEA IS NOT TO MAKE ANY ONE FURIOUS,MY BELIEVE IS THAT THE WORDS I HAVE WRITTEN MAYBE MY WAY OF CLOSER TO ALLAH'S PROPHET,HIS LOVE..AS IT IS WRITTEN THERE
WHEN HAZRAT ABRAHIM{A.s}WAS BROUGHT TO FIRE ,TO EXTINGUISH THE FIRE THERE WAS A BIRD WHO HAD A WATER IN HIS BEAK TO EXTINGUISH FIRE,HE SAID I MIGHT NOT ABLE TO EXTINGUISH THE FIRE,BUT WHEN ON THE DAY OF JUDGEMENT GOD WOULD ASK FOR MY WORK? WHERE WAS I? I CAN ANSWER I HAVE MY CONTRIBUTION TOO...
SEE THIS IS A SMALL DROP..BUT REALLY THE DROPS MAKE SEA..ONE DROP BY ALL OF US WOULD STOP SUCH EVILS FOREVER....


Lay off the caffeine, good sir. It'd do your heart some good.

"Sir" Salman Rushdie: Day Four

Salman Rushdie's knighthood: The Gift that Keeps On Giving.

A Kashmiri girl looks at an effigy of British author Salman Rushdie before the start of a protest in Srinagar June 21, 2007. Angry protesters took to the streets in Srinagar on Thursday to denounce a British knighthood for Rushdie, whose novel "Satanic Verses" outraged Muslims worldwide. The placard on the effigy reads, "Hang apostate Salman Rushdie". REUTERS/Fayaz Kabli (INDIAN ADMINISTERED KASHMIR)


This effigy is the closest I've seen so far. Of course, I'm still anticipating worldwide joy from the Inflamed Ummah (tm) tomorrow, but until then, this is still money.

"Sir" Salman Rushdie: Day Three

Here're the latest photos from the wave of love and joy for Salman Rushdie. I'm still expecting Friday to be the most dramatic set so far, but we're still seeing plenty of good old-fashioned entertainment until then.

Rt: "BRITISH GOVERNMENT TAKE APOLOGY FROM THE ALL MUSLIM[s] OF THE WORLD."


I'm sure the British Embassy would be more than delighted to hear your apologies, good sirs.

Love Letter from Londonistan

Fresh from my inbox, I present the myriad and mystical joys of a madrassa education, all emphasis and linkage mine:

From: Himmat Yaar <xxxxx@msn.com>
To: Snapped Shot
Subject: Contact Snapped Shot

Allah has sent the Prophet Muhammad sallallah hu alahe wa aaley he wassalam as the saviour for all mankind and to show light to the entire humanity and help mankind reach the right path while following the true faith, ISLAM.

Any person, organisation or nation which undermines the stature of our beloved Prophet Muhammad sallallah hu alahe wa aaley he wassalam, has undoubtedly joined hands with Satan to destroy the truest of all religions, Islam.

Britain is a country which prohibits mosques from using loud speakers to announce call for prayer (Azaan) [Ed.: 5 times, daily.] and yet its own churches ring loud bells every Saturday and Sunday. [Ed.: 1 time, 2 days a week, maximum] Britain is a nation which does not believe in moral values, religion or faith and yet poses before the world as the strictest of law enforcement society. Britain is a society which encourages gay rights, abortion, live-in without marriage [Ed.: Okay, I can't argue that last one...] and yet spares no one who evades taxes. Britain is a society which openly condemns terrorism and yet acts as the right hand for all actions leading to mass massacre and terrorism in the Muslim world. Britain is a country which does not spare traffic offences and yet harbours terrorists under political asylum from across the world. Britain is a country which speaks of no ill feelings to the Muslim world and yet slaps hard at the entire Muslim faith by knighting villainous characters like Salman Rushdie. Britain needs no democracy as it has the highest level of hypocrisy in every aspect of its social life. Britain denounces terrorism and yet acts as a strong hand of terror for Muslims around the globe.

The axis of evil, comprising the USA, UK and Israel has left no stone unturned to damage and destroy the already weak Muslim Ummah and the Islamic world. [Ed.: You're obviously not very weak and destroyed, considering you are using your freedom to sit in the comfort of London and write this, Sir.] The axis of evil has begun a War on Terror to over power the spirit of Jihad. While every terrorism is condemned by the people of faith and the non-believers alike, yet the actions by the axis of evil are no short of a terrorism at mass scale, which can only be responded by a similar action of coherent and strategic warfare utilising the combined resources (financial, military, infrastructure and intelligence) against the axis of evil by the entire Muslim World, today.

Members of the axis of evil have several peripherals and followers who support them for personal gains. And yes, the members of the axis of evil, reward their peripherals and supporters in ways, which are an open slap on the face of the entire Muslim World. Salman Rushdie is one such peripheral of the axis of evil who recently got some kind of honor by a nation and a society which no longer has any moral, social or religious values. And for all the obvious reasons, decided to knight a person, who the axis of evil has come to believe, acted in their own interest to cause damage and insult to the Muslim faith. And they did it in no small manner. They knighted him in the most glamorous way, showing the muscle of their slap to the entire Muslim Word.

While people like Rushdie are a burden for this planet and must be executed, we all believe that a country which has come a long way to harness its hypocrisy into a much glorified law enforcing and law abiding country, will use all its resources to protect the followers of the axis of evil and may be make them even greater heroes. Remember, just as mediocrity promotes mediocrity, similarly bastards promote bastards.

There will be many Rushdies who will come and go and there will be the axis of evil with its torturous powers which will continue its war against good until the judgement day. But remember, that in the days of our beloved Prophet Muhammad sallallah hu alahe wa aaley he wassalam, there were even more villainous characters than Rushdie, who used to throw stones at our beloved Prophet. When Allah asked Prophet Muhammad sallallah hu alahe wa aaley he wassalam, if he wanted such villainous chaps to be taken to task, our beloved Prophet used to respond by saying that these people are non-believers and have astrayed from the true path. Prophet Muhammad sallallah hu alahe wa aaley he wassalam would then pray to Allah to give such villainous people wisdom and light so that they can see the true faith and embrace Islam. Such is the dignity of our beloved Prophet Muhammad sallallah hu alahe wa aaley he wassalam.

The axis of evil and their peripherals in likes of Rushdie have forgotten that ???IF YOU HAVE FAITH YOU DO NOT FEAR???. While the feelings of the nations belonging to the axis of evil will not be damaged if someone humiliated their religious prophets, however it is time for the Muslim World to see the reaction of the axis of evil, if some one tried to humiliate the Queen or the US President and then the humiliater gets the highest medal of honor from all countries of the Muslim World.


Three words: Get, a, hobby.

On a side note, it's delightful to say that just about every evil outlined in here by our new friend Hiryat in support of Islam's war on the West is something that is a part of the modern liberal platform.

Someone fax this to Nancy Pelosi, stat!
 

"Sir" Salman Rushdie: Day Two

The saga continues...

Pakistan's protesters chant slogans to condemn the British government for awarding a knighthood to Salman Rushdie in Karachi, Pakistan, Tuesday, June 19, 2007. Pakistan's government summoned the British ambassador Tuesday to protest the knighthood awarded to Salman Rushdie, denouncing the author as best known for 'offensive and insulting writings' against Islam. (AP Photo/Shakil Adil)


"HAND OVER RUSHDEI TO PAKISTAN FOR TRAIL IN SHARIAT" (Bad Protest English-to-Regular English translation: "Hand Over Rushdie to Pakistan for Trial in Sharia!")

That's The Religion of Peace for ya, folks. Death is an appropriate punishment for writing a dreadfully boring book.

If this keeps up, I think we might have yet another DAY OF RAGE on our hands, and if it's going to rise to Day of Rage levels, it's bound to happen this Friday. Keep your eyes peeled for some Grade-A entertainment, folks!

Update: Eagle-eyed reader AMDScooter spotted a familiar face in the crowds! How'd I miss that??

"Sir" Salman Rushdie: A Thoughtful Reaction

Here is a round-up of the calm, collected, and very in-depth, well-considered Pakistani Islamist response to the knighting of Salman Rushdie (h/t lgf):

Pakistani lawmakers passed a government-backed resolution Monday demanding Britain withdraw the knighthood awarded to author Salman Rushdie, condemning the honor as an insult to the religious sentiments of Muslims.

Of course, some will say that this will inflame the anger of the Middle East... but then again, when is their anger not ablaze?
