“I demand that you arrest me.”
My film is likely to be inspired by a fascinating lecture I heard by the very Rushdie during which the novelist, who read Islamic history at Cambridge, explained the origins of that faith. He said it began with Mohammed’s ruthless and violent battle with the mother cults that then controlled Medina over local trade routes. It was about money then, but, as I will show in my movie, that war evolved into a kind of perpetual “War on Women” that has been waged by Islam since.
Interesting, huh? Good cinema. Action, adventure, sex (matriarchy vs. ultra-patriarchy), even a little meaty conversation like Lawrence of Arabia.
Don’t let me do it. There’s only one “War on Women” and you know it — the one your fellow Democrats ascribe to Mitt Romney and company. I wouldn’t want to undermine that.
So stop me, Hillary, before I write. The Bill of Rights is a fusty old document anyway, obviously subject to revision by an UN-approved committee of trans-global multi-culturalists.
Censor me all you want. I’m ready. I don’t want to cause any international incidents. I have enough sleepless nights as is.
But you will excuse me if, in the process, I think of you as the deepest of reactionaries. I knew you were a big time liar when you blamed the “right-wing conspiracy” for your husband’s obvious serial adultery. That was nothing compared to this, however. By blaming filmmakers, even the most amateurish ones, for the murderous actions of fanatical Islamists, you have placed yourself in complete opposition to everything our country ever stood for and to the essence of the U.S. Constitution.
They have no idea how they’re simply encouraging the enemy.
“They have no idea how they’re simply encouraging the enemy.”
The first four words are all that’s needed:
“They have no idea…..”
I prefer the last five.
Do you really think they agree with you on who exactly is the enemy?
“They have no idea how they’re simply encouraging the enemy.”
1. Oh, yes, they do.
2. What makes you think the Bambi adminstration think America’s enemies are their enemies?

I can believe that of Barack Hussein Obama…
not entirely convinced that the she-bitch from Chappaqua is
God damned America has always been the enemy of these people. Over thirty years ago a woman in NYC that worked for me used to talk about it in whispers. I could not understand how they could hate America so much.
They are children and fight by children’s rules. Truth has no standing. They do not tie their hands with principles. You can not reason with them. It’s all smoke, mirrors and strawmen. It nailing jelly to a tree.
The only thing you can do is cut their legs out from under them. We have got to take away the taxpayer money they use to stay in charge.
Give them any benefit of the doubt and they win. If you’re wrong? Good. Just don’t use that to undermine your fight. These people will kill us all. You can’t play nice when those are the stakes.
It not just that they disrespect freedom of speech (while demanding it only for themselves and seeing no contradiction in that.) They disrespect freedom.
Maybe Mrs. Clinton should not be telling people who murder ambassadors that they have perfectly good reasons for doing so, regardless of whether they do or they don’t.
‘just a thought.

I recently read a classic science fiction novel by Eric Frank Russell, a fellow who worked closely with a more famous Brit, Ian Fleming. The book is called Wasp, and not to give away too much of the plot, but in the book our hero, an Intrepid Earth-man is dropped on an alien enemy-colonized planet and told to make trouble. The Intrepid Earth-man does this in part by hiring local criminals to assassinate people. The assassins neither know nor care why they are killing; they just want their money. Question – is Nakoula Basseley Nakoula being paid to cause trouble?
The scenario goes something like this – Nakoula is hired by a mysterious figure to make a movie. He, or somebody, later overdubs the thing, then translates it into Arabic. Our mysterious money-man then drops a dime on various hot-headed Muslim clerics who call attention to the movie. Whoever is calling the shots then uses the resulting rent-a-mob as cover to kill our ambassador.
Unfortunately for us, matters get worse. As I discussed earlier, any attempt to investigate the public front-man of this movie results in immediate protests from various Useful Idiots in the US. These protests are probably not enough to sway an election, but who knows? Stranger things have happened.
I kind of have a soft spot for you Chris because you do love SF, but I think you just called me a Useful Idiot even though I have no interest in protesting any investigations. Investigations, on occasion, lead to truth. Truth I’m a really huge fan of.
I’ve heard of this conspiracy theory. The thing is, every time some nut is called out as a right winger… on further investigation they turn out to be a crazy left winger (but I’m being redundant.) Every time. If only I could get an even money wager on it every time I’d be hugely rich.
Oh well.
