My first WorlNetDaily column is up!

Two days after the Mumbai bombings last week that killed more than 180, the government of India issued a directive banning 17 websites. These websites were singled out because, according to the Indian government, they might incite religious violence. The nine American websites banned by India are all critical of the Islamist movement. Not a single website of Islamic extremists justifying and even celebrating the Mumbai bombings has been banned......

The very definition of tolerance is to allow that which we do not agree with. The moment Muslims demand that their governments punish those who say, write or depict things they find offensive, they reveal their intolerance.

So, the reaction of our websites was to make fun of this overreaction. Oddly, mocking the intolerant is now considered a form of intolerance by many in the world.

The specific reason for India's ban was that our reactions to the Quran-flushing story could cause religious violence. Since it was only websites deemed offensive to Muslims that were banned, we know precisely who it is that India fears.

Remember, India believes that we are the #2 biggest threat on the internet. We're dangerous, but Hezbollah isn't.

UPDATE: The more I think about being a columnist, the more I think maybe that turd-for-brains Ahmadinejad may be on to something about Armageddon.

Be wary of horsmen coming in fours, hidden imams being revealed, and be on the lookout for flying pigs.

2 Yes, I must say the banning of  your website in India reeks of
dhimmitude on the one hand and sinister  Muslim manipulations, and
perhaps even threats made by Muslims to the government of India on the
other.

5 Congratulations! You are now officially a WMD. Your invitation to join the United Nations and your check from the proceeds of the Oil-for-Food Program are in the mail. Please select the areas of international peace-creeping in which you are willing to participate:

1. Rape
2. Genocide
3. Condemning Israel
4. Support and cover for terrorist organizations
5. Blaming America
6. All the above

We, the conglomeration of the unfit and unwilling look forward to partnering with you in the continued destruction of world peace. We also thank India for bringing your potential to our attention, though this act of good will is not a guarantee of India's being invited to become a member of the Security Council due to their continued involvement in democracy. Chao!

10 Rusty, sorry but I must get something off my chest.
Last gasp Larry, FUCK YOU!

OK, your post is interesting and this clears up some stuff for myself. I have been looking into this issue at:
http://thomhartmann.org/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/4851097651/m/5711080851/r/1301023891#1301023891
Since the 18th when sunrise had questioned the censorship. After this I posted a bunch of articles from the Hindustan Newspaper at:

Registration required.
If you have time it might be worth is to see how they viewed this issue.
Keep up the great posts and hope you can be published again soon.

11 India will be forced to confront these radicals in the very near future as they will see the weakness of the Indian response and up the ante. Look for a larger terrorist strike against India in the very near future.

I recently noticed on one or two of the terrorist websites, either ummah.com or one of the sites in England, that some were calling for jihad against India as well as the US and Israel. Get ready for a rough ride Indian people who are non-Muslim. You are in the line of fire and the weak response of your government is encouraging the terrorists and radicals to strike you again.

12 Good job Rusty. Hopefully this is the first of many.

Posted by: traderrob at July 22, 2006 07:16 PM (3al54)

13 The ironic thing is that when it comes down to war in the streets, the dhimmified governments of the world will send in their troops to halt the popular resistance to jihad. Governments will fall, and We the People of every nation will have to put the pieces back together after we kick the muslim animals back under the rocks from whence they slithered. Muslims are incompatible with civilization, and governments are incompatible with liberty.

14 I've read that Jawa Report is not banned in Pakistan.  Probably the only reason it isn't an issue there is because Islamists  don't need a Hindu/Muslim wedge issue as a pretext to start rioting or take over the government.  The establishment of Pakistan is not enough for them - all Muslims everywhere must have Muslim rulers.

16 With comments such as those by Wipe Ass Larry (very KKK) , not surprise you got banned. I do like to witness all that neo-con victimhood act you are putting on; Vey much in line with the rest of your neo-fasccist fellows.

Whinny little whimp.

18 Yes, mighty idiot, very tolerant of you to want someone banned for using their right to free speech. You are the typical dumb ass hypocritical liberal who is for free speech so long as it agrees with your worldview. You're as crazy as a run-over dog!

21 Yeah! Good job Rusty, I wont say I told you so two years ago but see, its fun isnt it?

22 If it weren't for my abject disdain for public displays of affection - especially the sort of which that could be described as "bad gay," I'd give you a big ol' smooch sqwar' on the lips.

Since such disdain does exist Rusty, please except my virtual handshake and pat on the back - for a job well done.

23 Al-Queda was behind the Mumbai attack, and it was not ordered by Mussaraf. Moreover, Mussaraf does not have that much control of his extremists. Pakistani children are taught viscious anti-hindu propaganda at school and this has been extended to anti US and Israeli propaganda.

I agree with Jesus land joe India is in the line of fire. This war on terror could last 50 years; this is probably a bit hard to take for some in the Indian government but putting ones head in the sand has never solved anything. The ban of websites reeks of cowardice.
