The fact that Israel is full of Arabs and Russians is a hindrance to democracy in Israel.  :P

I'm not sure I entirely agree - as in that case I think it was a bit of picking one's battles. I guess we could continue to publish lame things they find offensive but I'm not sure where we have room to be surprised that they then act in a ridiculous violent manner - unless we are planning to do something to curb them of their violent ways. (And I don't think a sharply worded retort qualifies.)

This is simply mindboggling.

First of all, "we" do not continue to publish anything - our societies are not monolythic and our governments do not control content of free speech.

Secondly, be careful what you wish for - since your very existence is offensive to muslims, so you are probably going to be next on the list.

See? There is no room for negotiations with these savages.

Rasmussen 1. Obama 0.

Eastern Europeans and Rasmussen.  :rolleyes:

Overnight Gallup tracking has the spread at 7 points now, and Obama at 51% approval, over 50% for the first time since OBL got double tapped and joined the Indian Ocean food chain.

Can't we install fucking claymores in the embassy walls?

The U.S. Embassy in Yemen has been overrun.

The very fact that this is "spreading" like this shows that this is not a reaction to the offensive stimulii but rather a reaction to the reaction. What "this" is is not a rent-a-mob showing up to protest US imperialism but rather the novel (well since 1979) activity of trying to storm the embassy and killing it's inhabitants.

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

Too many eloquent people manage to propound the same immoral doctrine of blaming the victim for it just to be mental retardation. It's an insult to all retards.

It's the lack of thought (and refusal to think) about the actual consequences. It seems ok for people to be murdered if you sympathise with goals of the murderer or you think the victim is morally culpable. By suggesting that you should accept that you are at fault if you provoked the religious lunatic that tried to kill you is just vile. It just signals a lack of human empathy on garbon's part here. People he doesn't like aren't full humans.
