Mar. 22 – Hundreds of Dutch demonstrators go on the march over a movie expected to be highly critical of Islam. About a thousand anti-racism protesters turned out in Amsterdam in a show of opposition to the controversial movie by right-wing politician Geert Wilders and its anticipated condemnation of the Koran.

My Reader- Perhaps Demand Curves Slope Upward to the Right – or, Alternative-Universe EconomicsHere’s a letter that I sent yesterday to the New York Times: To combat unemployment, Paul Krugman supports “labor rules that discourage firing” (”Free to Lose,” Nov. 13). If a student in my Principles of Economics course ever wrote such a thing on an exam, he or she would earn an F. But no student in my class would ever write such nonsense. My students lea […]

Bye, bye, Copenhagen treaty. Note that comrade […]

- Bryan and Herbert (by Russell Roberts)Bryan Caplan lists the 21 things Herbert Hoover mentioned in a 1932 speech just before the election that Hoover claimed help save the economy.

moinansari,
You mean like Islamic-Fascism. You Muslims are the Fascists wanting to impose your retro-7th Century cult on others. You are a Facist! Hey Muhhamed was a Dog hating pedophile, nice guy to follow!
I for one would like to say this Islam is nothing but an empty religion whose followers are nothing more than crybabies. If their so called God or prophet is so easily defamed than their belief is nothing more than an act. Truth is Christians take abuses aimed At Jesus with a grain of salt, because the true bible says forgiveness not to assassinate those against your religon
Hey Konservo,
On April 1st this book comes out.
Caliphate, about an Islamic controlled Europe in the 22nd Century.

Trajan,
Here’s an interesting quote from the book description:
Hmm… hey, at least he’s honest. This is exactly why I say that ‘Islam’ as we have come to know it today will soon be a thing of the past. It will be forced to evovle so as to meet 21st century standards of human rights.
It already is a thing of the past, it’s just refusing to stay there.

moinansari,
STFU.
Muslims support SOIEs efforts to eliminate Islamic influences from Europe
Actually, thanks for coming back with that link, moinansari. I just don’t like the spam.
However, Vanhecke and the Vlaams Belang are, in fact, extremists, Wilders is just a provocateur.
Wilders is a Libertarian Rightist, not a Fascist.
Wilders Movie Website, Network Solutions, Is Caving Into Radical Islam.
Muslims Against Sharia neither endorse nor condemn “Fitna”; we have not seen the film. However, we find it disturbing that Network Solution suspended “Fitna” website while hosting a multitude of radical Islamic websites, some of which belong to (or are closely affiliated with) terrorist groups.

reformislam,
I’m moderating your comments because you’re spamming, also, you still need to answer avideditorla’s question here:
http://djkonservo.wordpress
avideditor:
“I saw a slanted responses in an Israel poll that you created” – you should realize that we do not have control over responses. The reasons for the polls is to collect opinions, not to make statements.
“Would you mind answering your stance on Israel.” – Some of the Islamists claim that we are Zionists pretending to be Muslims. That should answer your question.
“I just saw a poll on RI that tried to equate right of return to Israel for jews and muslims” – that’s a really dumb statement. The idea behind that poll is that everybody is concern about Palestinian right of return, but nobody ever talks about the Jews who were kicked out of Arab countries.
