Posted by: Celsius at June 24, 2008 1:51 PM

No. Boycott, in the first place, the Arab Kingdom of Jordan. Boycott thick-necked Abdullah, his mediagenic "Palestinian" Jordanian (i.e., a western Palestinian eastern Palestinian) good queen Noor with her sweet-sounding, utterly deceptive and meretricious "Act of Faith," and all the others in that part of Eastern Palestine that then became the Emirate of Transjordan, and then the Arab Kingdom of Jordan, and even though "plucky little king" Hussein is dead (the one so favored by so many Westerners so easily fooled, because so ignorant of Islam,=, from Anthony Lewis singing the "plucky little king's" praises in the Times, to Prince Philip and Prince Charles, both of them greatly impressed with Hussein, as they have been, a bit too much, with this or that semi-decent Muslim ruler.

Don't go to Petra, the rose-red city half as old as time. Don't buy any clothes "Made in Jordan" (they are produced by non-Arab slave laborers, in factories owned by Arabs, taking full advantage of the Most-Favored-Nation Status idiotically granted to Jordan in order, presumably, to bribe it not to break the peace treaty with Israel). Do write to your Congressmen, do insist that all American aid ot Jordan be cut off, and cut off never to be resumed (the Jordanians, like the Egyptians, the Pakistanis, the soi-disant "Palestinian" Arabs, can all go, hat in hand, to Kuwait, the U.A.E., Saudi Arabia, countries now drowning in gold, where the most indiscreet uses -- those palaces, those hundreds of billiions in arms, those call girls, those private fleets of 747s for princes and princelings and even perhaps a princess or two, of the House of Al-Saud -- are made of the most fantastic discretionary income).

The Muslims and Arabs want to make an example of Denmark, of the Netherlands, to bully the entire world. We don't have to bully Jordan, to make an example of it. We just need to stop, for god's sake, giving it any aid from Infidel lands -- direct aid, indirect aid, tourist dollars, most-favored-nation treatment. It's all of a piece.

In other words, we don't have to try to punish Jordan. We need only stop doing it favors.

Is that too much to ask of our government and of our fellow Americans?

So nice! They want to prohibit all defamation against any prophet or religion.

The Quran says that Jesus is not the Son of God.

As to all the christians, this is an insult against the Son of God!!

The muslims can start with prohibitting the Quran as it insults the Son of God of the Christians.

I am also sure that the Quran insult Christianism, Judaisme, Polytheism, ...

So the Quran defame several religions ...

One weigh, one Measure ...

Let's apply it and forbid all the Quran, except, maybe the first sourate, Al Fatiha, also one of the shortest.

"... Similar to the international legislation banning anti Semitism (sic) ..." from an Islamic flak quoted in article above.

I'm not sure which "international legislation" this fascist is speaking about, and if such exists, I'm against it. But I can't help but wonder what the Muslims are about when they use this kind of insane equivalency. For surely Muslims are well aware that "international legislation" (read here: corrosive Western prohibitions against so called "hate speech") are notoriously ignored and flouted by Muslims across the spectrum and on a regular basis. What Muslim who has attended Mosque either in the West or within Islam could honestly state without equivocation that they have not heard the most rancid exhortations toward hatred from the Islamic pulpit by their Imam? Not one. Not one. If a Muslim were to assert that he or she did not regularly hear "hate speech" (read Islam) espoused from their pulpits on a regular basis, then he or she would be instantly proved to be an abject liar of the lowest order.

Defamation is the communication of falsehoods intended to present a negative image. As such this proposed law may in fact prove to be beneficial. I imagine the following:

"You have defamed Islam!!!"
"Oh yeah, prove it."
"You said the Koran promotes violence and terrorism."
"Yes, I did."
"That is false and defaming."
"Is it now?" (break out relevant passages in the Koran, Hadith, etc...)

It may help to shed some light on the matter.

In law (in English Law, at least) it is not possible to defame anyone by publishing the truth about them. Nor, for that matter, is it possible to defame the dead.

Therefore, it should be perfectly acceptable to describe Mohammed as a rapist, gangster, paedophile, instigator of mass-murder etc. etc. provided you quote the relevant suras from the Quran.

Islam is a political ideology masquerading as a religion. If it is not possible to criticise the founders of a political ideology (as it is with Marx, Hitler etc.) then there is no such thing as democracy.

They are going by the principle of collective guilt. They should want to apply this to themselves first for 9/11 and everything before and since. Moreover, if they go by collective guilt, all that is in the Koran and all done that is inspired by the Koran they take ownership in.

Moreover, the collective responsibility mind set would imply that Iran should not get nukes, since every act done by their side has to be attributed to the same people who have their nukes. The same would apply to Pakistan. Also it would apply to legal liability for 9/11 and other acts by all governments with Islamic in their official name.

Here's your list:

Key Dutch companies in solidarity with "Messenger of Allah Unites Us" Campaign

The companies Zwanenberg and Friesland Foods have placed advertisements in Jordanian newspapers saying that they oppose the controversial film by Wilders.
In its advertisement, the Zwanenberg Food Group says it “rejects the opinions and statements” in Wilders’ film. “We strongly condemn the anti-Islam comments which we believe don’t have any other purpose than to insult.”

The company also expressed its “Solidarity with the campaign by The Messenger of Allah Unites Us in its attempts to pass international legislation banning insults to religion, including Islam and the Prophet Muhammad (Peace be with Him).”

"Islam is a cult, not a religion"
by desert dweller

Cult: A small disrespected religion.

Religion: A large respected cult.

This new idea of not criticizing religion or its followers could be turned against Muslims. A few of us said this before. Here's the big however: It will never be used against the purveyors of Islam and all the hate it conveys. There are just too many cowards in government who could use it. I do not know of any other religion that has a book that has passages where followers of another religion are called "apes and pigs."

I have a tin of Royal Dansk Danish Butter Cookies on my drawing table, a stick of Lurpak butter (perhaps the finest butter in the world) in my fridge, along with some Danish feta cheese. The only Dutch product I have right now (so far as I can recall) is a small wheel of Edam cheese.

I have been a bit leery about specifically seeking out Dutch products, since the government in the Netherlands has been a lot less resolute about protecting anti-jihadists than has Denmark--just look at the lack of protection given to Theo van Gogh, and the treatment of Geert Wilders, and the even more shameful treatment of Ayaan Hirsi Ali.

But now, after this repulsive organized boycott, I will indeed add Dutch products to my shopping list--with the obvious exception of any company that has denounced their own birthright of freedom of speech to the barbarians.

Exactly what "international legislation" is this? Much Muslim media would be pretty strapped for content if they couldn't slander Jews on a regular basis.

It has often been pointed out--but bears repeating--that the Mohammed cartoons are extremely mild compared to fare in the Muslim world, which frequently depicts images such as grotesquely hook-nosed Jews brandishing swastikas while sucking the blood of Palestinian infants.

New Zealanders went during WWII to help liberate your country from fascist rule. Now a new kind of fascism, based on theocracy, is sweeping the world and you are pandering to it. This is not what our men died for when they released you from Hitler's rule.

What we need are the names of Dutch and Danish companies and businesses (especially, perhaps, the smaller ones) that SUPPORT freedom of speech and freedom of conscience. Can Dutch and Danish lurkers help out with this?

Perhaps Mr Spencer could ask Mr Wilders for a list of any Dutch businesses, businessmen and businesswomen who have sponsored his (Wilders') party? A spate of international orders flowing in from overseas customers - each one accompanied by a letter thanking them for their support of the cause of Freedom - could have an invigorating effect.

Furthermore, brief and polite letters could be sent to the Queen of Denmark, expressing admiration for her brave and intelligent citizens, Kurt Westergaard and the Jyllandsposten team (if Jyllandsposten is the newspaper that commissioned the cartoons in the first place? please correct me if I am remembering wrong), and likewise, to the Queen of the Netherlands, expressing admiration for the bravery and intelligent truth-telling of Geert Wilders and Ayaan Hirsi Ali (and of Theo van Gogh, deceased). Thousands of such letters, flowing in from many lands, might conceivably make an impression.

James Martel asked:
"What would be the top ten consumer products from Islamic countries which people could boycott until Muslims admit that something is violently rotten within their cultures?"

Well, apart from oil: look VERY carefully at labels on a range of food products.

I understand that the Iranians sell pistachio nuts; indeed, the Israelis used to buy a lot of Iranian pistachios...ooops.

Going just by what I've seen in Australian supermarkets:

Turkey sells a lot of dried apricots. I used to buy Turkish apricots, once upon a time. I've stopped, since I heard about the ongoing persecution of Christians in Turkey.

Iraq and other mid-east countries sell dried dates (you can substitute luscious dates, fresh and dried, from California).

Pakistan sells rice; Bangladesh sells stuff made out of jute.

Egypt sells jam - yes, I kid you not, I have seen jars of strawberry jam on Australian supermarket shelves, marked 'made in Egypt'. Egypt also sells cotton things. Unless you've got a direct line to a Coptic business, buy NOTHING from Egypt (one could always try looking for a business or restaurant owned by a Coptic immigrant, in the USA, Canada, or Australia, and giving them your custom).

I think the North Africans - Algeria, Tunisia, Morocco - may sell spices, couscous and cheap olive oil. There are plenty of good non-Muslim sources of olive oil (Israel, for one).

After everything I have heard about the enmity inculcated against Infidels, not to mention a number of documented stories of deliberate Muslim contamination/ poisoning of food intended for Infidels, or plots to do same, I would be very leery of buying foods from a Muslim country; and I do not think I would want to eat in any Muslim-operated restaurant.

Here in Australia, one has to watch out for timber products, e.g. furniture and paper goods 'made in Malaysia' or 'made in Indonesia', for they are produced by the greedy and unsustainable plundering of ancient old-growth tropical forests, and, of course, the Muslims are running those countries. Malaysia and Indonesia also sell rice, spices and Asian sauces...not for me any more, thanks.

Final thought: to really get up the noses of the jihadis - BUY (or invest) ISRAELI, BUY (or invest) JEWISH.

I replaced the desktop Germany (I'm of German ancestry) flag a couple of years ago after Germany paroled the murderer of US Navy Diver Robert Steatham and replaced it with the flag of Denmark. It's on top of a curio cabinet when you first enter my home. I've gone to "protest" in support of Denmark at their embassy here in DC when the Muhammad cartoons first appeared in print.
I would really like for my government to increase its production and refining of its own energy supplies (gas, oil, coal, shale, whatever) so that the West can begin the ultimate boycott of Arab/Muslim oil. And even better would be if the US and the West stopped sending "aid" to these Muslim countries. Y'all need money - go ask your Muslim brothers the Saudis, etc for some spare change.

And even better, icing on the cake, would be if the press in the US/West stopped fawning over the likes of "Queen Noor" and the wife of the current ruler of Jordan.

Posted by: HOV Dummy at June 25, 2008 10:00 PM

I agree with all the strategies suggested above - actively boycotting Jordan and any companies that join the Dhimmitude campaign; supporting the companies listed on the islamic boycott poster (as someone suggested, you're never too old to have some Lego).

I also think we should be doing some targetting of our own - it seems obvious that the OIC is aiming at some of the smaller Western nations first. Let's try that too - as I've written before, Malaysia has quite a few runs on the board when it comes to implementing Sharia laws that are in direct opposition to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights - let's start boycotting them until they allow people to give up Islam if they want to, until they recognise a woman's evidence in an islamic court as equal to a man's, until they recognise that children born to mixed (muslim and non-muslim) marraiges should have the children's religiousity decided equally by the parents and custody split equally.

Lastly, while I strongly support the public voicing of opinions about the dangers of islamic ideology, I think we also be preparing for a return to the days of the anonymous pamphlet. Just as it was employed succesfully during the time when people were actually afraid of Christian authorities, it seems clear that religous power of another kind is increasing. Truth is its own weapon and can be employed powerfully via the net. Small PDFs with the major flaws in Mohammed's life and teaching should be spread repeatedly and widely across the net, especially to the youth in OIC countries in their own languages (arabic, turkish, urdu, iranian etc). Aim at the next generation of islamic youth and try to give them the tools to fight islam in their minds.
