    Cartoon Jihad

    Islam is a sea of inconsistencies. A religion of “peace” at war with itself and everyone else. Muslim equal rights include everyone except women and non-Muslims. Muslims demand rights in western countries but won’t accept the simple principle of free speech. Muslims want to build mosques throughout western society but you can’t even bring a bible into Saudi Arabia. Islam is a sick society that needs criticism.

    The one thing that may help unravel Islam’s cesspool of hate is criticism. Theo Van Gogh died for it. Criticism forces Muslims to think. Few free-thinking people ever choose Islam. Most Muslims are born into the religion and can’t criticize it, change it, or leave it without fear of death. Criticizing Islam gives hope to those who want to leave Islam. Criticize Islam as much as possible.

    I love the cartoons.
