A dhimmi is a person who submits to Islam, eg. by following the sharia and not criticising Islam. In media coverage of the Charlie Hebdo attacks, there was a cavalcade of dhimmis. Here is a short list:
– New York Times reports, then scrubs jihadis’ references to Qur’an and Islam
– White House spokesman: US needs to “redouble” efforts to explain the true “tenets” of Islam
– German Interior Minister: Charlie Hebdo murders have nothing to do with Islam
– MSNBC: “We have to respect Islam”
– CNN policy: Charlie Hebdo Muhammad cartoons forbidden, “Piss Christ” okay
– Howard Dean on the Charlie Hebdo murderers: “I stopped calling these people Muslim terrorists. They’re about as Muslim as I am.”
– New York Times: “What We Don’t Know: The reason Charlie Hebdo was targeted”
– Financial Times calls for Sharia self-censorship: “Some common sense would be useful at publications such as Charlie Hebdo”
– New York Daily News pixelates Muhammad cartoon in story about Charlie Hebdo jihad massacre
– UK’s Telegraph headline on Charlie Hebdo jihad massacre story: “France faces rising tide of Islamophobia”
Translated from Jyllands-Posten:
“‘I maintain the right as editor to publish all sorts of drawings again at some point. Just not right now,” said Chief Editor Jørn Mikkelsen.
The day after the deadly terrorist attacks against the satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo’s staff in Paris, several Danish newspapers printed selected cartoons from the magazine.
But not Jyllands-Posten, which in 2005 printed the 12 caricatures of the prophet Mohammad.

We should create tens of thousands of posters of Mohammed in an evening dress, having sex with a goat, while drinking a nice American Coke and we should plaster the entire centre of every city with them, toilets and all. As we all despise Islam, it would be a great anti-Muslim statement and let every Muslim know that…we’re getting closer to our own Jihad, against them!
Alissa says
I agree. As a show of solidarity. However, be ready for the backlash because there certainly would be one. It shouldn’t matter though. Either now or later, we will have to face backlash or complete takeover. We all know that. I think it’s better to take a strong stand now than to wait until yet another generation has added force to the islamic mandate.

You can download, and print, some of them, here. I’ve done so, and intend to put them in strategic places. I’ve also downloaded and printed the ”Je suis Charli Hebdo”.

No thanks!
A picture of Mohammed drinking an American coke is ok but not the sexual stuff. We are supposed to be decent people – people who don’t/won’t have sex with animals….. etc!
I have respect for everyone including Mohammed. I worship Jesus Christ as Lord – the one True God, because of Him I choose not to be violent when someone disrespects my faith. Difference between Islam and Caholicism – Jesus says to love and forgive Mohommed advocates violence. Amen?

quran 9:29
Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, (even if they are) of the People of the Book, until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued.

“I have respect for everyone including Mohammed.”
Why would you have respect for a man who not only blasphemed Christ, but who was also a warlord and a child rapist?

Such pictures would not be *lauding* sex with animals, but critiquing it—just as other cartoons of the vile “Prophet” criticize his pedophilia, taking sex slaves, or massacring Infidels.
For instance, here are two of my cartoons criticizing the “Prophet’s” rape of little Aisha:

http://s478.photobucket.com/user/gravenimageartist/media/JWswing.jpg.html?sort=3&o=3
And here is one criticizing his massacre of the Banu Quraza tribe:
http://s478.photobucket.com/user/gravenimageartist/media/BanuQurayza.jpg.html?sort=3&o=2
More:
I have respect for everyone including Mohammed.
…………………………………
Clearly, you mean well—but why would you choose to *respect* someone who was a caravan-raider, warlord, pedophile, slave trader, and mass murderer—and one who would have this thugs murder anyone who dared to criticize any of these evils?
More:
I worship Jesus Christ as Lord – the one True God, because of Him I choose not to be violent when someone disrespects my faith. Difference between Islam and Caholicism – Jesus says to love and forgive Mohommed advocates violence. Amen?
…………………………………
Eileen, it is good that you grasp this fundamental difference between your faith and Islam. But Christianity also says to stand against evil—and there are few things more evil than Islam, as exemplified by the appalling “Prophet”.
wallace says
Respect for Muhammed Eileen? Sorry but there is no polite way of putting this, you Eileen are unfortunately retarded. I would spend some time with my head in a book instead of the clouds. Woodstock no more.

Another semiliterate Taqiyya artist—and a particularly ham-fisted one. Doesn’t he realize that many of us who post at Jihad Watch are all too familiar with the contents of the vicious Qur’an and the Sunnah of the violent “Prophet”?
There is the infamous “Surah of the Sword”, which abrogates any peaceful verses of the Qur’an, being the penultimate Surah:
Surah 9:5:
“And when the sacred months have passed, then kill the polytheists wherever you find them and capture them and besiege them and sit in wait for them at every place of ambush…”
Here’s another:
Quran 2:191-193:
“And kill them wherever you find them, and turn them out from where they have turned you out. And Al-Fitnah [disbelief] is worse than killing…”
There are at least 109 verses in the Qur’an which call for Muslims to war with unbelievers, including those cited by posters above.
There are many more examples in the Hadith.
As for violence against Jews by the baleful “Prophet”, there are many examples—but the most appalling is his beheading of up to 900 men and boys of the Bany Qurayza tribe. He enslaved all the women, girls, and pre-pubescent boys.
And this is codified in Islamic scripture—Jews are called “the worst of people” and “apes and pigs”. The Hadith call for full genocide of the Jews:
Abu Huraira reported Allah’s Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: The last hour would not come unless the Muslims will fight against the Jews and the Muslims would kill them until the Jews would hide themselves behind a stone or a tree and a stone or a tree would say: Muslim, or the servant of Allah, there is a Jew behind me; come and kill him; but the tree Gharqad would not say, for it is the tree of the Jews.
—Sahih Muslim
The irony is that the very line this Muslim apologist uses—”May God guide those dat wnt 2 b Guided nd hav truth in dere Heart”—is a reference (clear despite his woeful misspellings) of those who supposedly don’t want to be so guided, those “against whom Allah is wrathful”, and “those whom he has led astray”, which refer to Jews and Christians.
So he himself cites Islam’s canonical antisemitism. Salam Onimisi is not even any good at whitewashing Islam. Then again, there isn’t enough whitewash in the whole world to make Islam look decent.
jaafar says
muhammad SAW never advocate violence. the whole concept of islam means peace. i believe alot of people dont understand islam and muhammad saw himself. we love and respect islam and muhammad and we can sacrifice our lives to protect both from who tries to insult them

quran 2:216
Fighting is prescribed for you, and ye dislike it. But it is possible that ye dislike a thing which is good for you, and that ye love a thing which is bad for you. But Allah knoweth, and ye know not.
Bukhari, Volume 4, Book 52, Number 177:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah’s Apostle said, “The Hour will not be established until you fight with the Jews, and the stone behind which a Jew will be hiding will say. “O Muslim! There is a Jew hiding behind me, so kill him.”
Sahih muslim, Book 001, Number 0030:
It is reported on the authority of Abu Huraira that the Messenger of Allah said: I have been commanded to fight against people so long as they do not declare that there is no god but Allah, and he who professed it was guaranteed the protection of his property and life on my behalf except for the right affairs rest with Allah.

Just as other readers here on Jihad Watch are probably doing, I am reading letters-to-the-editor pages at U.S. newspapers [ well-heeled & well-mortgaged sofa “liberals” ] to see what the editors print after the Paris massacre.
Not surprisingly, the Washington Post’s Thursday edition had a privilege guilt exculpatory “I am a Muslim but not violent” letter running first in its collection. Of course, I did not see any remarks which actually point to the Hadith sanctioning of murder for blasphemy.
MUST BE THE WISE POLITE DHIMMI “SELF CENSORSHIP” OF BILL DONOHUE — MUST NOT OFFEND LOVERS OF THAT FAMOUS PROPHET.

In case they change their minds about printing the Muhammad Cartoons, here is a link they can use.
http://thedailybanter.com/2015/01/they-cant-kill-everyone-here-are-the-charlie-hebdo-cartoons/
(Coexist disclaimer)
It is perfectly ok for coexist defenders of Islam to go to the link and read the translated captions providing of course, that they promise not to look at any of the pictures.
Katnis says
Tick tock. Give them time. In the meantime, some of their competitors have published the cartoons and have been rewarded with traffic or purchases.
Sam Hawkins says
I don’t blame them. A decade of being under mortal threat, punctuated by actual attempts on their lives, can wear anyone down.
Jyllands-Posten have done their part. It’s up to the rest of us to carry on.
Matthieu Baudin says
Yes Sam your right. A lot of people sit back and let a few do all the running and take most of the risk to not only their own lives but also to their loved ones. Living under mortal threat would be less depressing if we had political leadership which led the way in our struggle. Hollande will probably continue to serve up the same platitudes, the Dutch and Swedish leadership are frozen up and the U.S. and U.K. are leading the English speaking world backwards. Putin makes grand noises but is too busy playing at Ultra Nationalism to keep focused on containing Jihad. So it’s better, Sam, for us to be critical of those media organisations that haven’t made an effort in the past than to get stuck into those organisations that have at least made an effort in the past. The politicians are another story however, we need to hammer them for backsliding and encourage those who show signs of courage.
Papa Whiskey says
Hear, hear. I’m willing to give a pass on this right now. Their history gives them a particular vulnerability.
There is a countermeasure to vulnerability, however:

Know Thy Enemy says
Please someone help me understand-
Why should the media people put their lives at risk just so others* can enjoy liberty? From *others I mean engineers, doctors, politicians, IT pros, athletes, lawyers, entrepreneurs, finance pros, and everyone else who is not in the media business! When I ask my doctor and finance pro friends why they chose their respective careers, the response almost always is- “Because there is tons of money to be made, what else?”!
How many journalists and media people do you know who make as much money as doctors, lawyers, ……etc……. and even if they do, exactly why should they put their lives on risk when the IT and Finance pros do not have to??
Don’t you think it makes better sense that the liberty enjoying high-earners raise one of their children to be a journalist, another one to be a cop, and the third one to be a soldier? Those who are getting the maximum benefit out of a free society should be the ones working to protect it, No?
Salah says
“A dhimmi is a person who submits to Islam, eg. by following the sharia and not criticising Islam.”
The day will come, and it’s already here, where Muslims themselves will start asking though questions and openly criticizing their own religion.
It is ALREADY happening in Egypt, on public TV:

If the butcher-knife slave-trade ‘religion’ of Islam had any decency it would not need to search for people to blame for its own filth.
Steffen Larsen says
To be fair: the newspaper has already at least twice been the target of failed terrorist attacks, one of which would have been a Charlie Hebdo style massacre had the police not prevented it. An attack has been a threat ever since.
Also ‘Jyllands-Posten’ share a building with one of the most Islam-obliging newspapers in the country, the ‘Politiken’, and THEY aren’t too happy with the thought of being collateral damage, despite having apologised to the Muslim world for the Muhammad drawings.
BC says
I do not see they should be criticised for this. There is not sense in inviting trouble at this time. On Berlin paper had its offices attacked for publishing cartoons. BTW the Paris magazine is already preparing a one million
copy edition to be published asap. I hope they sell every last one
BC says
Correction Hamburg newspaper not Berlin
BC says
R U EVER HEARD ANY ISLAMIC AUTHORIZED ORGANISATION MAKING CARTOON OR MAKING FILM FOR JESUS,MOSESS, OR ANY RELIGIOUS RESPECTED PERSON OR SYMBOLS????
They are free to do so if they wish maybe they cannot draw well. However they regularly murder Christians which is far far worse (in Pakistan for example for ‘blasphemy alleged) Is Mohammad so delicate he needs to worry about a cartoon or his portrait? You have your rules but they apply to Muslims not to the rest of the world, but you would like the kuffar to bow down to Islam. There is principle at stake. We will never give up our hard won freedoms for your repression. If you want repressive rule stay in your Islamic countries where things are as you like them. why do you want to liv in Western countries anyway?
wallace says
I am working on an invention at the moment, still a fair way to go though, need to apply for a patent, then it will have to be passed through the Islamic Department of Innovations. It is a measuring device on wheels ,it will be pushed around the Mosque at prayer time, it calculates the right height a believer’s butt has to be in the air. It will be fitted with an automatic beheading device for those whos asses dont hit the mark. It will be called the Buttometer.

Jyllands-Posten, famous for Muhammad cartoons, won’t print Charlie Hebdo drawings
……………………..
Well, *this* is f*cking depressing. Charlie Hebdo first started receiving death threats from pious Muslims for daring to reprint the famous Danish Motoons.
Jørn Mikkelsen is no Fleming Rose—and obviously he is not fit to edit Jyllands-Posten. Fleming Rose was the paper’s cultural editor at the time the cartoons were published—he is now the foreign affairs editor. But he has been the face of free speech at Jyllands-Posten.
Fleming Rose wrote “Tavshedens Tyranni” (Tyranny of Silence)—and now his own paper is part of that tyranny. *Appalling*.
