Those of you old enough to have seen the Little Rascals will grok the title.
Okay, I was off by a factor of 2. Jeez, Louise, if y'all expect perfection, go elsewhere. Read the words graven on the USS Clueless logs...
{Sad that Steven had to quit "thinker" blogging. I spent 2 days reading all of his archives after I found his site years ago. If you can find one of the archival copies of his USS Clueless blog - stop. Relax. Read from his archives. Think. You are now a more-informed entity. Rinse and repeat.}
Sorry. Us old farts live in the past....
As I mistakenly said, "may be up to 50 deaths." Blew the prediction by that above-mentioned factor of 2. The mind is more and more boggled by the irrationality-by-my-lights behavior of the death-by-rioters groups offended by ink in the form of cartoons.
Not very good cartoons, even. (Go to Fark.com for photoshop fun.)
Not sure that the "stricture" against portrayal of the pedophile Mohammed ever was real, but, "what-the-jihad, let's have one to prove we're the religion of peace" seems to be the mood over there in the mideast. For no apparent reason.
Now the mosque explosions. The folks stirring the pot whipped up a good explosive situation - no pun intended - to inflame Iraq along religious/tribal/societal lines. If this incitement works, there will be major problems in Iraq. The best possible result is a dampening of the demonstrations/riots by the Iraquis themselves due to their desire for a stable country.
I agree with the UAE contract, BTW. Even if Jimmeh does.
Crap, nevah thought THAT would happen..... but I do like sweet tea....
