Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Doonesbury’s Trudeau: “I certainly wouldn’t draw pictures of the prophet”

Apr 26, 2015 6:43 pm By Robert Spencer

TrudeauHard-Left cartoonist Garry Trudeau here attempts to clarify earlier remarks he made blaming the victims for the Charlie Hebdo jihad massacre. However, he only ends up digging the hole deeper and affirming his submission to violent intimidation and implicit acceptance of Sharia blasphemy laws.

Jihad Watch reader Bill informs me that in the full interview, Trudeau says that the Charlie Hebdo cartoonists were “not at all to blame,” but then says “I didn’t agree with the decisions they made that brought a world of pain to France.”

But it was the jihad mass murderers, not Charlie Hebdo, that brought a world of pain to France. If they were not willing to commit mass murder in the service of Sharia blasphemy laws, France would not have experienced any pain at all. Trudeau is saying that the proper response to a thug who threatens to kill you unless you shut up is to submit and obey. That is to install a thugocracy, allowing those who will kill the most people the most ruthlessly the right to rule.

Trudeau also says, “I wouldn’t draw pictures of the prophet….” This is presumably because he says that he doesn’t “have the right to decide what is sacred and holy and profane for someone else.” But that is not what is at issue regarding cartoons of Muhammad. There is no question that Muhammad is sacred and holy to Muslims. The question is whether or not that fact obligates anyone else. If I believe something is sacred and holy, does that oblige you also to respect it? Trudeau would apparently say yes. I doubt, however, that he would say the same thing when it came to Piss Christ or the dung-encrusted painting of the Virgin Mary that was exhibited in New York a few years ago. But Christians won’t kill him for offending them.

“Garry Trudeau on Charlie Hebdo, Doonesbury and the Future of Satire,” NBC News, April 25, 2015 (thanks to Bill):

Cartoonist Garry Trudeau responded to critics of a speech he gave earlier this month who alleged he blamed the victims – his fellow cartoonists – for the Charlie Hebdo attacks in Paris.

In an interview with Chuck Todd airing on Sunday’s Meet the Press, Trudeau said he was “not at all” blaming the victims and that he “should have made it a little clearer that I was as outraged as the rest of the world at the time. I mourn them deeply.”

Trudeau said it’s “not really for us to decide,” whether or not the Prophet Muhammad can be satirized. “I mean, we, as societies, collectively decide what’s untouchable. But I don’t have the right to decide what is sacred and holy and profane for someone else. All societies come to a consensus about that.”

But religion is not a red line for the “Doonesbury” creator. “I certainly wouldn’t draw pictures of the prophet [Muhammad]. However, I’ve done many cartoons satirizing in the specific: terrorists, the Taliban, Al Qaeda, the P.L.O… and have never received any blow-back from the Muslim community. They understand that I’m separating out the two.

    Finally, a journalist that understands respect and professionalism,
    Not misguided notions of “submission”…respect the prophet Muhammad,
    Respect muslims and respect islamic cultures, and you would have others
    Respect you.

    • Wellington says

      Apr 26, 2015 at 7:13 pm

      Huh? First of all, Trudeau is not a journalist. He’s a cartoonist. Second, the man is a flagrant hypocrite and coward. He would NEVER condemn any satirizing of Christians or their religion or their founder. Third, “islamic cultures,” as you referred to, are dismal and devoid of any real kind of liberty. Fourth, just look around the world and observe where almost all terrorism is emanating from. It comes from the Islamic world almost without exception.

      Unless you’re engaging in satire which is too obscure (this being in itself a negative), I say to you stick it where the sun doesn’t shine. Islam is the only major religion which is totalitarian. It’s disgusting. It is not deserving of any respect. Its reputed founder exhibited traits of a psychopath, narcissist and pedophile. It does not respect other cultures, even though you stated that “islamic cultures” should be respected. What rot you have spewed. And know this: Increasingly the world at large, with every passing year, is coming to know what Islam is really about. Count on respect for Islam by non-Muslims only going continually down. Guarateed there is no chance, truly zero chance, of it ever going up. Now, get lost.

        Hello again Wellington —

        :I also cannot decide if Sabri S. writes in ultra-condensed satire, and you saved me the time / effort of accurately describing Trudeau.

        • jihad3tracker says

          Apr 26, 2015 at 7:49 pm

          OOOPS ! ! ! Trudeau has a Facebook page, so if you want to send a nickel’s worth of opinion about his remarks, that is a vector for contact.

          Also, another recent post has comments about which is better for the clueless American crowd’s awakening about Islam : DRY UNEMOTIONAL FACTS or ACOUNTS OF VIOLENCE ?

          For a website tallying daily slaughter on behalf of bloodthirsty Allah ( accounts of violence ) go to http://www.thereligionofpeace.com. Maybe Trudeau will have time over his morning cereal to ponder those human lives lost.

          Then he can come to a conclusion on whether Muslims’ decision about whom to kill regarding “what is sacred and holy and profane” is legitimate or pathological . . .

          Hello again to you, jihad3tracker. Hope you and yours are well.

          As for Sabri S., I think it more likely than not he’s just another tiresome and irrelevant Muslim apologist rather than one engaging in satire bordering on the tedious and annoying. One thing’s for sure and that is that Sabri S. could clear this all up with an unambiguous statement to mine and yours, though I doubt we will hear from this turkey again on this thread. He strikes me as a “one and done” kind of commenter, which in and of itself is revelatory of deception, tediousness, a limited mind and cowardice. Could be wrong but I doubt I am, though if I am Sabri S. could set things straight rather easily, now couldn’t he?

        Apr 27, 2015 at 10:58 am

        Agree with conclusion by Wellington: “Count on respect for Islam by non-Muslims only going continually down” (in polls).

        The awareness of the jihad risk is like the genie leaving the bottle. The genie will not go back in the bottle.

        This is the first time in history that large numbers of Westerners understand foundational Islam and are attempting to destroy this ideology. The realization that Islam is primarily a POLITICAL ideology has not filtered down to the average person who merely knows that Islam’s methods are backward and barbaric.

      Sabri,

      Until Islam, as an ideology, removes the violence toward Christians, Jews, and athiests from its Quran and Hadths, it deserves no respect.

      One must separate good, peaceful, muslims from the horrible, vicious, backward theology and not judge individual muslims as a composite entity.

      The annihilation of the Jews and and physical Dawa must be removed, universally, from Sunni and Shia doctrine or the annihilation of all mankind will be the end result.

      A factual history of mohammed by Arab historians. Please save the link and pass it on.

      It is very worth the time to read and gives first person reports of stuff like oral and anal sex with little boys. No insult intended, but mohammed was quite possibly mentally unbalanced, concerned mainly with deviant sex and extreme violence.

Muslims are the most intolerant, bigoted and hateful people on earth and you come here and have the chutzpah to talk and demand respect to the most violent and murderous ideology in the history of humanity? Hahaha… oh wow!

    I wonder if Mr Trudeau realises his ability to write and draw cartoons is not a technical one only.
    He lives in a society which tolerates his right to do so.
    If islam takes over I dont think he will recieve any kudos for stating his respect for it by not drawing pictures of the Mo man.
    As a human being I urge everyone to , mentally at least, remorselessly take the piss out of the religion
    of peace and now, non-muslims who wish us to suffer in a state of dhimmitude.

    Trudeau is proof/example that:

    –Some would rather serve on their knees than die on their feet.

    –When the going gets tough, the cowards are the first to get going.

    –Those with the biggest mouths tend to lack any courage of conviction.

    –We have nothing to fear, but psycho nut jobs with over sized meat cleavers.

    –When you bend over backwards enough to kiss somebody’s a$$, more often than not you can kiss yours goodbye.

    Some are all bark and no bite–oh wait a sec that one’s true– As in Trudeau.

    In a crisis Political Cartoonists are the “Tip of the Spear.” They’re supposed to epitomize the 1st Amendment, because God knows they sure do trumpet from it often enough.

    And now look;

    Mr. Trudeau, and I barely have the courtesy to use the term “Mr.” because the term implies being a man, but, “Go home. Go wallow in whatever laurels you may have earned because you have nothing relevant to say to anybody who really does has a backbone. Perhaps worst of all you have proven the “Sword is mightier than the pen.”

    Savagery in 2015! I have thoroughly studied all three Abraham ic faiths,
    And only Islam is booming in America…can’t be islam…right? Or are you
    All going to label me falsely a muslim apologist?…if your bigoted views

      By the way the greatest slave trader were the Muslims. They still practice Black slavery in north Africa. I’m sure America makes them do this, as well as cut off Christian’s head who refuse or can’t pay them to protect them from…. Oh, Muslim Islamist that are demanding to be paid not to kill them. Sounds like a great religion for bullies.

      It is great to have people like you post. It shows us how irrational people think. Islam was spread through trade. Are we going to believe our lying eyes or you?

      Islam is not the fastest growing religion in the States. According to the US census less than one percent of people living here are Muslim. Islam only grows in the Middle East and Asia due to birth rate and they manage to keep other religions from growing by killing them.

Islam spead by peaceful mean. It will be than very long time before Islam is the majority religion in america. Since 9-11 Islam have growing even faster.

      Apr 26, 2015 at 11:49 pm

      Sabri,

      I can see you’re fooling yourself…kind of like the typical Muslim who says…”I believe in absolute freedom of speech, but anyone who criticizes the prophet is going beyond freedom of speech.”. You sit and wonder how logic and mush can exist in the same brain.

      The US does sponsor drone attacks…like the attack that killed Awlaki, who mentored and praised Major Hasan, the Fort Hood shooter. I’m not a fan of drone attacks myself: they have the potential for allowing a government to summarily execute its citizens. But, of course, the Hamas government of Gaza randomly shot missiles into Israel. Does that count for anything? And, we know that Iran, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, etc fund terror groups. Have you missed the headlines?

      So, you made a study of all Abrahamic religions. Did you notice that the values of Islam, such as they are, are totally different from Judaism and Christianity? There is no commonality whatsoever. The only ethics in Islam is what Muhammad said or did. Judaism and Christianity have ethics that transcend individual and derive from general principles.

      Why is Islam booming in the US? One answer would be that the US government is importing tens of thousands of Muslims and giving them public support. And there seems to be a high rate of conversion to Islam among convicts and other non-productive losers. Is that an increase you’re proud of?

      Islam is booming in Europe as well…again, through importing Muslims from Turkey, Iraq, Albania, Somalia, etc…And the benefits…the Jews are being hounded out of France, Holland, and Sweden, due to being harassed and threatened by…those fellow Abrahamics, the Muslims.

      As for why an intelligent person would go to Islam…I have no idea. If you’re a woman, you can look forward to wearing a veil, sharing your husband with 3 other women, being beaten, and living in fear that your husband will just say “I divorce you” three times. If you’re a male, you’re giving up music, drinks, art, and any critical thinking. Or, do you feel yourself free to think anything your logic leads you to in Islam? Like, do you ever wonder if Muhammed’s murder of 800 Jews of Bani Quraysa, his building a fire on the chest of the leader to find his money, or his marriage to the widow of the man he just murdered…just might not be the ethics you want to follow?

      As far as Aisha, his marriage to her was legal…since, anything the prophet did was by definition, legal. Or, am I wrong in that? So, let’s say that Muhammad was thoroughly a man of his times, and excuse his actions with Aisha. There were marriages with young girls. However, sharia law enables marriage to 9-year olds, since that is what Muhammad did. Do you support the marriage of 9-year olds today? Or, do you think that what Muhammad did, since he was just an ignorant tribesman from the 6th century, can be ignored and discounted today.

      Looking forward to your response.

      Sabri, America was not even on the map when muslim started slaughtering non-muslims especially Christians and Jews. They grew your wonderful little death cult, trying to show some respect here, by muslim savages attacking all over the ME Africa and worked they way up to and into Europe. There methods were brutal but brilliant “convert or die, leave and die”. They were stopped by the Crusaders but the damage was done. They destroyed 90% of literature from the more advanced cultures they raided. They tried and wiped out said cultures and claimed all the inventions as their own destroyed churches, synagogues and temples. Medicine the Greeks and Jews, algebra, Hindus, are you feeling proud yet. Hard to put a head count on the first 1400 years of islamic love and respect but some estimate anywhere from 225 – 300 million. Oh and lets not forget the slave trade kidnaped 100s of thousand if not millions of European women as sex slaves. Traded Africans for slaves and some estimate 30 million Africans are still enslaved by your loving and respectful religion. The first war America fought was against muslim slavers the barbarian pirates. I could go on and on, but do not feel like writing a book at the moment.

    I have NO problems with “Drawing Mohammed” and there IS a Contest. http://www.wnd.com/2015/02/draw-muhammad-win-10000/

    Crying and Whining we are the “Religion of Peace”, as well as “Racist”, “Bigoted” and “Islamophobe”, to anyone who exposes the TRUTH about Islam – this “Grand Deception” NO longer works for Islam, as in the very appropriate words of BNI, “It Isn’t Islamophobia When they really ARE trying to kill you”.

    Islam – which itself feels that IT has the “Allah, Mohammed, and Qur’an given DUTY” to “Blaspheme”, and make “Racist” and “Bigotred” statements about ANY Religion, Faith, Belief, or Prophet that is NOT Islamic, with expected Impunity, while ITSELF demanding FORCED World “Blasphemy Laws”, with Criminal Punishment, for ANYONE who “Blasphemes” Islam or their Prophet Mohammed.

    Islam – which wants FORCED Islamic Law WORLD WIDE, first if possible through the “Grand Deception” Taqyyia and Kitman (Islamic approved Lying and Deception) that advance the cause Islam by gaining the trust of non-believers (the Infidels), in order to draw out their vulnerability and defeat them), HOWEVER if NOT possible, THEN through FORCED Islamic Jihad.

    Islam – which considers Islamic Law as “Supreme” (which IS Antithetical to the U.S. Constitution), even over the United states Constitution – which IS America’s “Law of the Land”.

    Islam – which considers THEIR “Holy Book” the Qur’an as “Supreme”, THEIR Allah the ONLY “God”, and THEIR Mohammed the ONLY “Prophet”, and REFUSES to abide by the Laws of ANY Country.

    During the Nazi Days of WW2, the Nazis attempted to hide their Atrocities, and claim that the reports are only “Propaganda” and it isn’t really happening.
    However NOW in the 21st Century Islam’s Islamist “Islamo Nazi’s” BOAST about their Atrocities, and OPENLY Post the Pictures, therefore it IS well DOCUMENTED throughout the World

    Therefor Islam’s Islamists, and Groups such as CAIR, ISNA, ICNA, MSA, et. al., can no longer adequately refute the direct EVIDENCE and claim that it doesn’t occur (unless they want to try to laughingly claim “Foolish INFIDEL – Just DON’T believe your Lying Eyes and Lying Ears”), even though the Islamist Jihadist’s still incessantly try, and play the “Victim Card” for themselves.

    Also, by attempting to pass the buck by Blaming Christians for performing such acts during the 7th Century Crusades against Muslims, who WERE ALSO performing those acts to the Christians, BUT Christians who btw have NOT for Centuries and do NOT perform such acts TODAY in the 21st Century, while Muslins STILL DO perform such acts TODAY in the 21st Century, and now OPENLY BOAST about it.

    Thanks to News Services, which POST the TRUTH and the EVIDENCE for the World to see (which the Islamic Jihadists are Feverously and Vigorously attempting to Defame and Shut Down), such as “Jihad Watch”, “Creeping Sharia”, “BNI – Bare Naked Islam”, “WND – World Press – World Net Daily”, “Front Page Magazine”, “Muslim Watch”, “The Muslim Issue”, “Pamela Geller Atlas Shrugs”, “Anti CAIR”, “American Freedom Defense Initiative”, “Freedom is Just Another Word, – et. al.

    On thugocracy: all my life, since the sixties, thugs have been enjoying capitulation from our society. Violence has been working just fine for the Left.

That week, Bush went to pay respects at the old mosque in D.C. and introduced the term “religion of peace” to Americans.

    I don’t think gary has a problem mocking christianity. Maybe it’s because he knows he won’t be killed for it.

    Why would one have to respect a bandit, murderer, misogynist, slaver, rapist, paedophile, bigot, totalitarian and polygamist? No one is expected to respect Charles Manson, Jack the Ripper or Adolf Hitler!!!

      Mohammed respected only those who obeyed him.
      Mohammed was a fascist and a totalitarian killer of Jews.

      Mohammed was a pedo, murderer, rapist, liar, bully, thief, criminal.
      and, because he wrote a convincing manifesto, he is worshipped as a god.

    Sad as it is to me, the art world and patrons of it is infected with trudeau’s mentality. Yet the bastids had no problem with the “da vinci code” totally misrepresenting both Christ and da Vinci. His B.S. passes for being intellectual which is even more destructive than his scribbling products of his mental masturbation. In short form, Mr trudeau, Go to hell.

    I suspect Trudeau’s views are held by many leftists. It’s de rigueur for them to excuse muslims from any blame for the violence they commit. It is always someone else’s fault.

    They understand that I’m separating out the two.

    Yeah, by your compliance with Sharia they do not threaten you with death by execution. The whole point is that to save civilization from the Sharia it is exactly that Allah and his commands must *not* be separated from the specific: terrorists, the Taliban, Al Qaeda, the P.L.O and all the rest. Allah and Moslem Jihad are of the same piece of stinking cloth.

    By pretending that there are Unicorns, Trudeau lets himself off the hook of having to explain the cause of 1,400 years of Jihad. He is separating out the dangerous-to-him causal part from the dangerous-to-us results part.

    Re: “Trudeau said it’s “not really for us to decide,” whether or not the Prophet Muhammad can be satirized. “I mean, we, as societies, collectively decide what’s untouchable. But I don’t have the right to decide what is sacred and holy and profane for someone else. All societies come to a consensus about that.””

    What a cowardly masochistic traitor to rationality and civilization!

    Here’s islam’s “holy Message from god” as exemplified by the collective words and deeds of it’s Founder:

    “I will save humanity by lying to, extorting, torturing, robbing, burning out of their homes, kidnapping and ransoming, enslaving, raping and murdering everyone who even only verbally disagrees with me – and you can, too!”

    – Muhammad –

    Muhammad was really only a con-man and bandit-king, an arch-criminal who always blamed “god” for his own penchant for committing crimes. If Moe got away with committing a crime (and he tried them all, enthusiastically, more than once, but instead of ever showing contrition, bragged about how much fun it was to commit them, and advised everyone else to join in the fun, too), then it was held to be “obvious” that “god” wanted him to get away with having committed those crimes!

    So, islam is not a “religion” (at all, much less one “of peace”) nor is it a “race” (at all, much less one of “Poor, Oppressed, People Of Colour”)!

    Obviously, islam is ONLY an ancient, ongoing extortion-racket CRIME-syndicate, and the only “religious” part in it, is where they say:

    “God told us to commit these crimes!”

    (Capisce?)!

    😉

    The Qur’an clearly and specifically tells muslims the Bible is wrong and also that all Christians and Jews are infidel criminals who worship a false god, and who must therefore be extorted, enslaved, and murdered for their “crime” of not being muslims:

    Sura (Chapter) 47:1-4 of the Qur’an:

    1: non-muslims are bad, because they insult allah by dividing his nature;
    2: muslims are good, because to them allah is the cause of everything;
    3: Allah made them both like that;
    4: So muslims should chop off the non-muslims’ heads.
    (Allah could have done it himself, but he wants you muslims to do it for him).”

    …

    It’s all right there, in context: islamic violence is entirely general doctrine-driven, and not at all specific grievance-driven.

    (And chapter 47 isn’t by any stretch even remotely the worst, most violent chapter; that honor goes to either chapter 8 or 9).

    …

    So, if and when you consider islam to be a religion, you must agree with it’s main tenet: that God is a violent murderer who wants his muslim tribe to violently conquer the world by extorting, enslaving, and murdering all the non-muslim humans, right?

    At WORST, all REAL religions only say:

    “Obey our silly rules, or GOD (/’the gods’) will get you!”

    …but ONLY islam says:

    “Obey our silly rules, or WE will get you (‘for god’)!”

    A forced ‘Faith!’ ISN’T a “Faith!” at all – it’s only extortion, and extortion is always a CRIME.

    Perhaps the Doonesbury cartoonist can draw a satirical picture of an Islamic Dhimmi – someone who is not a Muslim – but bows to the pressure of Islamic threat [Koran 9:29].

    That should be funny!!

    How can you spell it out – THE TERRORIST’S ARE ACTING ON THE PROPHET’S BEHALF ACCORDING TO THE PROPHET’S “PERFECT” EXAMPLE.

    How can so many people in so many countries – keep getting it consistently wrong??

    Hint: They take their instruction from the same playbook!!

    ::

    Islamoppression

    It demonstrates how repressive the nature of Islam is ~ the cartoonist is not criticizing the fact that Charlie Hebdo featured cartoons that satirized Catholicism. So there is this ditching of fundamental values – but these are not random cast offs – based on warding off potential aggression.

    He says 9 out of 10 Muslims approved of his cartoons [minus the terrorists] – not that they verbalized this – but they did not attack.

    It is the acquiescence – the process of remaining on the right side of the abuser – the authoritarian figure. With the knowledge that when these non-violent Muslims complain loudly – it is not long before the other Muslim brothers attack.

    It is the psychology of abuse. Because the relationship western is in with Islam is an abusive one.

    ::

    As Hitler was rising to power – someone said – look you are accepting things now that – just a few years ago you would have objected to.

    The need for acceptance is extreme powerful motivation – to modify one’s beliefs.

    Turn on the TV and Wolf Blitzer and across the media – on reading a quote from ISIS terrorists – quotes a Quran verse – ‘kill them wherever you find them’ – but in the next breath – there will enormous effort put into saying this has nothing to do with Islam.

    Acceptance – the cartoonist is telling us – offers safety – refuge – versus – when you don’t seek that shelter – as with the Charlie Hebdo cartoonists.

    Enjoy the piss on Christ exhibition – but to draw Muhammad ~ is to invite attack.

    The problem with this approach is that these shelters are our nations – it is where ‘we’ live.

    In Holland for example Muslims complained of being offended by builders/construction workers wearing shorts in the summer/on hot day – which led to an apology and a promise of action by the firm.

    Where do these requests stop?

    And that something that many in Europe understand – far better than the Doonesbury cartoonist!

    Islam is a religious matter – and this we have freedom in.

    I never liked Trudeau, but I am still mildly surprised that he is such a poltroon. The barbarians won one, even if it’s just a little battle over a pisant.
