Just for laughs, I collected a week of headlines about Islam around the globe. (Admittedly, the laughs are heavy on black humor.) The week I randomly chose began on October 4, 2010 and turned out to be the typical apocalyptic nightmare that most weeks are now, in this golden age of hope and change…
…Reading the headlines as a sort of surreal poem, I’m staggered by the global reach of Islamic aggression. All of Europe trembles in its grip; across America, Atlanta bus stations and Amtrak train lines shiver with vulnerability; in Africa, murdered Christians fall in bloody heaps to the ground; in Canada, Russia, Indonesia, and the Maldives, turmoil and trouble abound; and the entire Middle East reeks of carnage.
The Islamists’ movement is tiny, almost undetectable — a house in Iceland is purchased for a mosque — and also unimaginably epic — Iran readies its nuclear bomb.
Striking, too, is the feckless buffoonery of the Western response. Look at these headlines and savor the marvelous displays of cowardice, confusion, and outright collaboration which is mostly what we’ve managed to summon up so far…
…What gets my vote for most important story of the week? Oddly, it never made it into a newspaper. I found it on Creeping Shariah, a website that uncovers the silent slither of Western accommodation with Islamic barbarity: “Ogilvy & Mather keynoting Muslim consumer conference with unindicted co-conspirator Islamic Society of North America.“ Yes, our corporations and advertising agencies are now married to jihad fanatics. What could go wrong?… [Emphasis CAJ]
