Now that more than two years have passed since the Islamic attack on Charlie Hebdo, I thought it might be worthwhile to update PatNet about what Charlie Hebdo is publishing. In particular, I wondered whether the survivors retained the courage to blaspheme, or whether they had been successfully cowed into submission ("Islam" is an Arabic word that means, literally, "submission"). Charlie Hebdo's website has a whole section called "blasphemy," so you might expect to find some blasphemy there, including cartoons making fun of Mohamed. Sadly, I found instead denunciations of "Islamophobia" and "identitarian scammers", strawman arguments against people who speak honestly about Islam, and celebrations of 'moderate' Muslims, e.g. praising the mosque in Germany where men and women pray together to the dead charlatan Mohamadman, and claiming (against all evidence) that Muslim women are the heart of the resistance to Islamism (despite the fact that Muslim women participate in murdering their own adult children for Islamic "honor", and the growing number of women suicide bombers). IOW, the murder of Charlie Hebdo blasphemers appears to have produced the intended effect, enforcing submission to the doctrine that the charlatan Mohamadman and his Arab nationalist followers designed, fabricated, and optimized Islam to do. Even Charlie Hebdo seems, now, to submit to hijrah.

Islam has taken away our constitutional rights. No one dares to insult Islam in public, write books or make movies about Islamic terrorists.
I blame the FUCKING LIBERALS who support these animals 24/7.

A Pakistani cricketer has offered a reward for the murder of firebrand anti-Muslim Dutch politician Geert Wilders for organizing a cartoon contest depicting Islam's Prophet Muhammad.
***
Between 2,000 and 3,000 protesters in Pakistan's capital, Islamabad, were prevented earlier this month from pelting the Dutch embassy with stones. Protesters say the contest is sacrilegious.

Because the judge is an American, Pakistani Islamists say the United States should also be blamed for holding the contest. The Islamist party, Tehreek-e-Labbaik Pakistan (TLP), which has demanded Islamabad break diplomatic ties with the Netherlands, says “strict measures should also be taken against the U.S.”
Pakistan’s new Prime Minister Imran Khan, a former international cricketer, has acknowledged the growing furor, promising in his maiden speech this week in the Pakistani Senate that he will raise the issue of blasphemous caricatures in the U.N. General Assembly. “Very few in the West understand the pain caused to Muslims by such blasphemous activities,” said Khan."
"Thousands of protesters from Tehreek-e-Labbaik Pakistan (TLP), an extremist religious-turned-political party, started a march from Lahore to Islamabad on Wednesday, demanding that the newly elected government cut diplomatic ties with the Netherlands and expel its ambassador.

"The government has just two options. Either cut the diplomatic ties with Holland, close its embassy in Pakistan and expel the Dutch ambassador, or kill us and send our dead bodies back to Lahore," Ejaz Ashrafi, TLP's spokesperson, told VOA.
"If the government will fulfill our demands, we can consider stopping this long march. Otherwise, we are ready to die in Islamabad for this cause and have already written our wills," Ashrafi added."

"At least five people were killed on Saturday during a second day of unrest in Niger, as French citizens were warned to stay indoors amid anger in several Muslim countries over a Prophet Mohammed cartoon published by Charlie Hebdo this week."
[Update: at least 10 killed so far.]
The murderers in Paris were not exceptions to the rule of a supposedly peaceful religion. They were the tip of an iceberg. I have never heard of Christians rioting and killing people over a cartoon, but Muslims do so repeatedly. I am not endorsing any particular religion, but clearly one of the three Abrahamic faiths is more violently aggressive than the others: Islam combines Old Testament violence with New Testament proseletyzing. All three have been used at various times to advocate violence, but Judaism doesn't try to convert non-Jews and Christianity gave up converting people by the sword centuries ago. Even saying that Islam is no worse than Christianity prior to the reformation implies that Islam may take 300 years to tamp down to the level of Christianity today (where abortion clinic bombings are the exception not the rule).
