hat tip: Michelle Malkin

Alan Dershowitz is right on here. He lays out they hyporcisy and double standards as clearly as I can imagine anyone doing in this video from an interview on Danish TV. The American media and libs won't get it. They're hung up on "incitement", etc. They always excuse bad behavior with "incitement" whenever any sort of group (provided they aren't white/christian/American) chooses to riot or break the law. There is "art" that insults Christianity and Judaism all over the world on a regular basis and you don't see all of us Christians and Jews firebombing embassies and basically destroying everything in sight... Certainly not 5 months after they're published either.

By the way, I hope you caught Hannity & Colmes last night. Michelle Malkin did a great job of explaining how misplaced the outrage is over these mild images in the first place. Catch the video now, Michelle has posted it on her site. Expose The Left has the full segment.

I wonder if the libs who always excuse bad behavior based on "incitement" would do the same for abortion clinic bombers. Not only does the person have the commons sense to know that abortion is murder, but in many cases their religion plays a role in their opposition. I suppose the mass murder of millions of babies could be cause for "incitement" right lefties? You may not believe that it is "mass murder of millions of babies" as I put it... but that doesn't matter. What matters is what the person being "incited" feels, right? So I expect the next time some abortion clinic is bombed that we'll see all these people who are calling for the media not to run these cartoons because it's "provocation" and "incitement", will be out to call for a ban on abortion. K?

Not surprisingly Chirac has joined the "provocation" wagon. Way to take the ride side again bud...

Chirac: Don't come around here with that hippy wilderness art Bob Ross! That's "overt provocation" of city dwellers. You're provoking people who prefer city life to burn down and bomb anywhere your art is displayed.

In other Chirac and Luxembourg Prime Minister Jean-Claude Juncker news, are stealing a page out of the Kerry-Edwards ambiguously gay political playbook and well....

Actually as I'm typing this, Michelle Malkin has another post up. In this one she blasts CNN for changing their already lame excuse for not showing any of the images, to an even lamer one. She explains again how half of the images don't even show Mohammed at all, and 3 others are neutral non-negative portrayals of "the prophet".
