| Thousands of Muslims have pledged a series of protests against Google HQ for a "hateful and offensive" anti-Islam video, saying they now live in an "age of mockery". A protest by 10,000 Muslims outside the offices of Google in London today is just the first in an orchestrated attempt to force the company to remove an anti-Islamic film from website YouTube in Britain. Thousands had travelled from as far afield as Glasgow to take part in the demonstration, ahead of a planned million-strong march in Hyde Park in coming weeks. Anger over 'The Innocence of Muslims', an American-produced film

Comments: So you wonder, okay, no surprise--but why did it take more than a month to organize this protest? Well, I guess CAIR had to meet with shadowy figures in the US administration to decide just how and where to protest, then communicate with its British contacts--probably personally so as not to leave a paper or electronic trail. Add to that the organization of the actual event, yep, that's about right.
The administration, which we know to be friendly with CAIR, is still trying to portray this movie as a major factor in Muslim unrest.

Ha! Ha! Ha! (Just laughing my head off at the 'age of mockery'). Welcome to the 'age' by Christians who have been the butt of such antics for quite a while. So those who have been mocking Christians all over the world don't like it when exactly the same thing happens to them?!? Asynchronous behavior could be a fanciful terms for such. What the Dems do as well could be another, less fanciful term.

So, Muslims can converge by the tens of thousands, call for the end of free speech as we know it, and even call for and commit murder of those exercising free speech, but if a single westerner besmirches a Koran, or makes a 15 minute video, well then, that's completely unacceptable. All of Islam is free to do whatever they want, but none of us are. Sounds like Muslim logic to me.

Look at the pictures.
Coming to a town near us soon. I'm sure Muzzies think they are the next Civil Rights movement.
No free speech anywhere. No women out in public. Sharia law world wide.
You know deep inside there are no "peaceful" Muzzies who will prevail. Only the radicals will rule us.

H.P. Lovecraft once wrote; "Bunch together a group of people deliberately chosen for strong religious feelings, and you have a practical guarantee of dark morbidities expressed in crime, perversion, and insanity..." I think that statement sums up the religion of Islam pretty well. Nothing could be more true.

All of us who were horrified by the images of the attack in Libya might say that mockery is far more than they deserve. They lost all pretense of moral high ground with the atrocities committed there and around the Eastern hemisphere, in "protest" of a stupid, badly done but generally TRUE video that nobody ever saw.

There was a video by a black guy questioning the fishiness of Obama's house purchase and it was gone the next day.

For once I agree with the Muslims. We do live in an age of mockery. Absolutely anything can be played for laughs and that's wrong. At the VP debate, Congressman Ryan was talking about thermo nuclear war with Iran and you'd think Biden was guffawing at a Martin-Lewis comedy schtick from 1950's Las Vegas. It is the age we live in. Has anyone on this site heard of a Muslim video that mocks Christianity? They'd like to cut our throats, true enough, but they don't mock religion. That's something to admire from their culture.

Both communism and islam are mockeries of God's plan for salvation. Imitations invented by the evil one intended to deceived, using some of the truth, but leaving out the most important parts... being born again spiritually and guided by the Spirit. Communism denies God and is completely materialistic, while islam listens to the wrong god and is completely deceived. They believe in the god of this world, and his doctrine of hate, murder, lust and envy. They are both more than deserving of mockery, as the deceived do not have the love of the truth in their hearts.

The more they protest, the more justified is the mockery. They should learn that respect must be earned, not demanded. If you try to demand respect without earning it people will mock and despise you.

As for the unanswered question of who first blamed the video for attacks on the embassies, one would almost think it was a ruse so as to inflame the Muzzie world. It could have had no other effect.
That, of course, raises another questions as to 'why'?

It was cynical. It was calculating. And it was done out of malice in a ham-fisted plot which went wrong. The trial spoke volumes about the sheer nastiness of the individuals involved.

A coral reef in Northern Australia severely damaged by warming seas has managed to completely heal itself in just 12 years, stunned researchers have found. The team found that being left alone to breed on its own was key. The discovery raises hope that other damaged reefs could ´regenerate´. The new research shows that an isolated reef off the northwest coast of Australia that was severely damaged by a period of warming in 1998. It was hit by coral bleaching, caused by higher water temperatures that break down the coral´s symbiotic relationship with algae that provide food for coral growth.

North Korea has loaded two intermediate-range missiles onto mobile launchers and hidden them in an unidentified facility near the east coast, South Korea´s Yonhap news agency has said.

As the US and China grow increasingly involved, Kim Jong-un must be brought into line if war is not to be triggered by an act of recklessness. There are two schools of thought about what lies behind North Korea’s increasingly frenzied posturing. The first goes like this: the rhetoric emanating from Pyongyang--including calls to “break the waists of the crazy enemies [and] totally cut their windpipes”--is no worse than their decades-old ritualistic promises to turn South Korea into a “sea of fire”. What we are witnessing, according to this theory, is nothing more than an inexperienced leader

Anyone who remembers the halcyon dreams of the 1990s, of civil society spreading the world over, heralding a new peaceful, global millennium, must marvel at the path the young 21st century has taken. Even those who paid attention to global Jihad before the millennium could not imagine how vulnerable the West would prove in the coming, wildly asymmetrical war. Those who, over the course of the last 13 years, have awakened to the ever-growing danger of Islamism and to the astonishing inability of decent people--Muslims and non-Muslims--to effectively oppose its aggressions, owe themselves a brief lesson in cognitive warfare, and

Sanford now faces five more weeks on the campaign trail before a May 7 showdown with Democrat Elizabeth Colbert Busch, whose business background and moderate politics are expected to create a tight contest.

President Obama´s biggest gaffe yesterday when speaking of California Attorney General Kamala Harris was not in flirtatiously complimenting her as "the best-looking attorney general," but in introducing an observation from the system of beauty into a forum that was about the system of power.What´s that, you say? Irin Carmon does a great job in Salon in laying out the bounds of propriety for when it´s appropriate to talk about a woman´s looks as a general matter.

Recent research indicates that the number of people who do not consider themselves a part of an organized religion is steadily on the rise. Interestingly enough, though the number of those religiously unaffiliated is increasing, there is little to no trend in the number of those who express atheist or agnostic beliefs. People aren’t saying they don’t believe in God. They’re saying they don’t believe in religion. They are not rejecting Christ. They are rejecting the church. This begs the question, “Why are we losing our religion?”

No one is more preoccupied these days with Hillary Clinton´s 2016 plans than the Beltway political class—not even the former presidential candidate herself. To hear some tell it, her decision will be dispositive for all other Democrats thinking of entering the race. And pundits and reporters aren´t the only ones positing the "The Hillary Factor": No less than the House Democratic whip, Steny Hoyer, told BuzzFeed, “I don´t know that anybody would run against Hillary….

Every month that those would-be workers are gone raises the odds that they might never come back, dimming the prospects for future economic growth. The vanishing trend is more than a decade old, but it accelerated during the Great Recession. Throughout 2012, economists held out hope that it had stopped. But then came Friday’s jobs report, and hopes were dashed. The Labor Department reported that the U.S. labor force — everyone who has a job or is looking for one — shrank
