Missing: The Face of the Age

(I feel it should be mentioned, both Ezra Levant and Michael Coren on Canada’s SUN TV have shown the cartoons more than once, and in fact, whenever it was relevant)

This week’s syndicated column:

Having passed the 10th anniversary of 9/11, I can now say with certainty that something major was missing from all of the ceremonies, the symbolism and the media coverage. It was something that not only captures the meaning of the attacks themselves, but better defines our response to them than any other single thing. It is the face of the age itself, and it is not Osama bin Laden’s.

I refer to the most familiar of the 12 Danish Muhammad cartoons, the one by Kurt Westergaard. I always think of this world-famous drawing as “Bomb-head Muhammad,” for the lit bomb that serves as Muhammad’s turban. (This is no fantastical image, as we learned last month when Afghan President Hamid Karzai prevailed upon local imams to implore their flocks to stop putting bombs in their turbans after three separate assassinations via turban bombs took place.)

I say “world-famous drawing,” but have you ever actually seen this cartoon printed in a newspaper, or shown on a news broadcast? No. With exceptions to be counted on one hand, this ultra-potent image has never received mainstream media display, despite its almost continual newsworthiness.

Yes, the media have covered the most violent eruptions of jihad that Muslims still wage against Denmark for having a free press with the temerity to function in dereliction of Islamic law. These have ranged from Islamic rioting that killed more than 100 people, to Islamic attacks on Danish interests, to Islamic boycotts of Danish products, to Islamic plots against the Danish newspaper Jyllands-Posten, to this week’s Islamic security threat against Westergaard that sent him home early from a trip to Norway.

  1. At this time the west is losing the war of survival because our leaders and information sources are surrendering rather then fight for our culture.

  2. Latest news from Norway regarding the recent muslim plot to murder Kurt Westergaard suggests that it was the sociopathic Pakistani gangster criminal Arfan Qadeer Bhatti along with muslim gangster compatriots who plotted to murder Kurt Westergaard in Oslo. Bhatti is well known to be professing Islamistic views and crazy anti-western conspiracy theories.
    A few years ago Bhatti received a lot of media attention after having carried out a minor terrorist attack against a synagogue in Oslo. Bhatti has previously promised to move back to Pakistan to prevent his daughters from becoming open minded and more difficult to brainwash, but to the great disappointment of human kind he has so far failed to deliver on this promise (which so far might well be considered taqiyya).
