Free Speech and Radical Islam

On Wednesday, Michelle Malkin asked for a show of solidarity for Kurt Westergaard and Jyllands-Posten:

As a show of solidarity and a reminder of how cowardly American media outlets refused to stand up when it counted, take a minute to reprint your favorite Mo cartoon or link back to the blogging you did on the cartoon rage two years ago.

Then there is this, this morning, in the Wall Street Journal:

We need a global movement to fight blasphemy and other insult laws, and the European Union should lead the way by removing them. Europe should make it clear that democracies will protect their citizens if they say something that triggers threats and intimidation. — Flemming Rose

Looking at the traitors in America

This is my response to today’s editorial in the New York Times.

Out of panic and ideology, Members of Congress, theirs staffs, former and current officials in our government and intelligence services, and even senior members of our military have revealed our nation’s secrets to irresponsible media outlets such as the New York Times. Hiding as un-named sources within media reports has become standard practice since September 11, 2001.

Living with their lack of courage is not an option; these single-minded, self-hating idealists endanger America’s sons and daughters in combat and here at home.

The day after 9/11, one foolish man asked why terrorists had attacked New York and people traveling to California, both “blue states.” We are at war and Islamic fascists murder Americans regardless of political preference. Nor will they spare the cowards and their families on America’s next day of infamy.
