I have drawings of the prophet Mohammed(pbuh)
A few days ago it was the Draw Mohammed day, where people expressed their creativity by drawing Mohammed and enjoying their free speech so here I’ll include the winners and some runner-ups as well 
do enjoy !
In order of the great Waldo here is the latest “Where is Waldo – Mohammed edition?”
Is he in the upper right corner? Are you sure? or just being prejudice?
The Fantastic connect the dot Mohammed, be the architect of your own blaspheme piece of art
Do you see the resemblance?
and the post modern genius of PP
Really Sorry PP ...
I sincerely hope that you enjoyed the blasphemy and learned a thing or two about what made you press on this post, what was in it, and the significance of prejudice and preconceptions
ENJOY!

Just because the Financial Times didn’t want to run it
Tim Hancock, Amnesty International UK’s campaigns director, said: “The decision by the Financial Times is extremely disappointing. We gave them written reassurances that we would take full responsibility for the comments and opinions stated in the advertisement. Both The Metro and The Evening Standard had no problems with running the ad.“

The Economic Hitman – Is that part of the problem or the whole?
I wonder what people think when they see this kind of thing. I have come to believe as i was growing out that the concept of a lie or a truth are just ideal forms for what exists in reality, and every truth has a certain lie in it for one reason or another.
The concept here is that multinationals have created a shadow government of sorts that extorts or lures both its home governments and those countries that they operate in. There is a prevalent belief that multi-nationals are evil to the core, and that national local resources should be protected from foreign entities.
This view about companies and the way capitalism operates in the world might be true, and its effects are tangible but i doubt that corporations are intrinsically corrupt and evil. But do they view themselves as evil is probably always answered with the negative.
The reason that there is a difference in perception between the two groups is just a matter of differing incentives. When a person’s incentives are setup in way where their reward is measured in terms of the money that they cash-in at the end of the yea, Then you will try your best to game the system and get away with as much as possible in order to achieve that.
So the fact of the matter is that the system is what causes capitalism to be glutinous, so if we managed to step away from the lessaiz-faire century, and move into the middle ground during this century then we might be able to mend this dangerous gap that formed between capitalism and its corporation and the people. and the more people perceive that there is a collusion between the corporations and government the more trouble they would cause which won’t be good to either. Without a leash and control and creating a system where the incentives are less focused on monetary focus and more focused on a totalitarian view of the impact of business as a whole.
People just like coorperation don’t really care or know about the effects of their consumption, and that is the other side of the problem. When a person goes to fill up on gas they are merely paying for the cost of getting it out of the well and into their tank. They don’t know, care, or want to pay for the cost of using it, the price-tag for the damage that was done to get it our anything else that might increase the price. And unless this starts to change consumerism will continue to grow.
Fighting consumerism while admirable on the personal level but unless there if a national shift in ideals and incentives it will continue to grow and continue making people perceive the consumers as evil and vile creatures when in reality they are just trying to do what makes them happy, no matter how misdirected it is.

Stop pulling the shaggy defense Muslims and go intro, or you are SOL!
OK enough is enough, lets cut through the bullshit, there is something terribly wrong in the way muslims and especially muslim youth are thinking these days and it is becoming tragic. The situation is so bad that you have pakis claiming to be indians, to put things into perspective here its kind of like a pali claiming to be an israeli or an athiest claiming to be a muslim. That’s how bad things are today! While the popular cry that blames the Zionists , the Americans, the west, colonialism, the ottoman’s, the unjordanians, the liberals, the Atheists, the Christians, the communists, the Unislamicness of the most Islamist societies of the past century and just about anybody and anything except their current understanding of their religion and their world. Stop pulling the damn shaggy defense of “it wasn’t me”.
Before we get to that lets look at just the news items that Muslims where starring in the past month, and only this past month.
The absent minded terrorist
I still believe this is a sorry Walt Disney plot to promote its remake of home alone where the burglars are replaced with Muslim terrorists. This guy is beyond a joke, he makes Wile E. Coyote plans seem like actual science. Actually he might have gotten his idea from watching one of the episodes, and maybe this was his plan B
This guy’s idea of smart is flipping the order of his name after showing his “official” driving license. His idea of a bomb is a bunch of firecrackers that aren’t even useful in cracking a watermelon. Isn’t there a terrorism for dummies book out there somewhere? Now thankfully that this guy was too dumb for his own good and ours, because if he was any smarter than this we would have had a seriously tragic situation but the bottom line is that the guy went to Pakistan to look for training and he was motivated by fundamentalist Islamic ideology. Do you think doing the majority of his school education in Saudi has anything to do with that?
The “Allahu Akbar, I can kick a cartoonist ass” douches
Lets get one thing straight, when you start talking with you fists don’t expect anyone to listen. Yes, I absolutely understand how blasphemously offensive even drawing the prophet is, never-mind having him in a very degrading depiction (yup never been done before those infidels started doing it !) but really what kind of point are you trying to make? That if you don’t respect me and stop doing whatever it is that i don’t like I’ll be sure to convince you by shoving my foot so far up your ass that it comes out of your mouth and stops you from speaking? Cause it sure seems like it, and it’s the message that you sent to the creators of South Park because they wanted to depict prophet Mohammed … they did but they put him in a bear mascot and the ball-less Comedy Central heavily censoredthe episode because they were scared shitless.
The Ban of the Niqab in Europe
Here is a brilliant idea, those poor stupid women need protection from themselves and their choice of attire so we need to ban them from donning those oppressive get-ups.
LotR Wraiths or humans?
and while we are at it why not ban this, it must hurt your haute couture french sensibilities
mIm
Or whatever this thing is …
WTF is this?
But lets get one thing straight that you are not doing for their sake, you don’t care about their rights, and you sure as hell ain’t freeing anyone… you are just doing it because of the hideous fabric and the way they look like blackholes when shopping on the Chanselise. What you will probably end up doing is exposing those women to more risk of being abused, alienating them from society and isolating them further into fundamentalism… that all is in spite of the fact that the niqab is an absolutely made up invention by misogynistic and jealous imams and men. So good job Europe at further aggravating the aggravated Muslim communities in your continent.
and that’s just some of the headlines, I didn’t even get to mention others like the boob-quake ! But I want to make my point before I lose the rest of you.
Let me tell you the story of Zaben, Zaben was an energetic kid in the 11th grade and he was just a year away from graduating. He was never the best student but he always blamed that at having bad teachers in the bad school he is in, because his parents didn’t care enough or could afford to put him in a better score. and because of that he hanged out with a bad group of friends, and he blames those friends for tempting him to skip school and start experimenting with drugs and alcohol. Zaben always got into fights and other problems at school but inside of him he always believed that he is a peaceful person, that if everyone gave him the chance he could be better at school, if only … Sad thing that Zaben was run over by a car the other day before realizing that its no one else’s fault but his… That’s all, that was my point.
ENJOY !

The Jordanians' Option
The silence on this piece of news is just making my ears bleed, at least I thought that blogs will give it its due but no! The one blog that should have carried it prefer to talk about some news in Lebanon… And I guess it was expected that the papers won’t have anything to say or feel any need to mention it. At least Mohammed Omar touched on it
So the national veterans association of Jordan issued a political statement the other day, the association that represents a 140,000 military officers around the kingdom. The political statement deals with the issue of the renouncement of the west bank by Jordan in 1988 and speaks of a diabolical “Zionist” scheme that is coming to fruition. The highlights of this political statement are as follows:
- A refusal to fully nationalize and allow a representative in the political system for the 4.4 million(this was later modified to reflect 2.2 million but kept the other numbers the same) people of Palestinian origin that are currently residing in Jordan. Whether they are refugees, yellow, blue or green card holders.
- There is a growing support in Jordan to this Zionistic plan and demand their right to be nationalized Jordanians and their right for a political representation.
- They demand the fortification of the lines for the sons of Jordan and working on doing the following:
- The Jordanian constitution does not vest the power of decision making in anyone but the King regardless of their relationship to him.
- The constitutionalisation and the issuing of laws based on the renouncement of the west bank in 1988, which makes the status of our Palestinian “brothers” in Jordan as follows:
- Those who are unable to return should be Jordanian until the establishment of a Palestinian state.
- Those who are able to return should be given the Palestinian nationality and should head home to their country.
- They want a nationalistic government that confiscates the wealth of the corrupt, reacquires strategic economic institutions and makes them public, and focuses on the development of the countryside and the desert.
- Bring to the front the Jordanian identity and to allow the freedom to express, act and organize to further this identity while at the same time striking the elements of this Zionist plan.
For the full version you can go here, and you will see how much support this statement has among “Jordanians”. I just have a few questions about all of this. What are they expecting the outcome to be? How much longer will the Pandora box be locked away? Is this the best time for this statement to come out after what has been going on the past 6 months? and why the hell is no one really discussing it locally? Does this statement fall under the publication law?
ENJOY!

The population of Jerusalem over time: Is Wiki right about this ??
I came across this map the other day and sounded about right, this is a map of land ownership by ethnicity of Palestine in 1946.
Then i got curious to see the population of jerusalem and how the percentages have changed over time and got shocked to see the numbers in wikipedia displaying that the majority over time has always been jewish.
Now being from over there I know that wasn’t the case at least from after the first world war which is the oldest oral first hand account that i heard about such issues from my grandfather. While Jews where there, in their own quarter like the afghan, Armenians and other immigrants and traders, they were hardly the majority and compromising more than half the population of the city by 1948…
I tried to find some historical or documented numbers of the population of the city and couldn’t find any. I could go home and look up what “Jerusalem divided” has but that will require me to GOOOOOOOOOOO home. So does anyone have any numbers about the population of Jerusalem over time? Can we correct those numbers in Wiki?
