Dhimmi of the Year 2007
March 28, 2007
Dear Fellow Hatemongers and Anti-Moslem Fanatics,
It is rather early in 2007 but the The Sectarian Strand Award for Dhimmi of the Year goes to Gavin King of the Cairns Post for a series of articles on an Anti-Mohammedean Blogger in Cairns.
The first article, mentions a supposed Federal police investigation into the website Winds of Jihad by Sheik Yer’mami for the ”offensive and racist” crimes of publicising the various quirky practices of our Moslem brothers and for opposing the building of Mosque in Cairns.
The next article, entitled “The Man behind Sheik Yer’mami”, breaks an emailed promise of anonymity and gives the Sheik’s real name, where he was born, and the location of his house and businesses – thereby putting the “Sheik’s” life and welfare at the mercy of the local Mohammedans and possibly at risk of the next outbreak of Sudden Jihadi Syndrome.
And the third and last article, rather incoherently titled “Blogging off to hatred”, makes the idiotic claim that Mohammadanism isn’t the problem - that anger is the problem. Apparently the well deserved abuse Mr King received from outraged bloggers and readers was similar to the anger felt by Islamic ”extremists” – despite the distinct lack of headchopping, suicide bombing, and death threats from anti-Moslem bloggers.
No, the problem of Mohammedan “extremism” wouldn’t have anything to do with the clear prescriptions of violence towards unbelievers in the Koran and its long history of acting upon these prescriptions. After all, Mr King has met the leader of Cairn’s Mohammadeans and found him as “dinki-di Aussie” as himself – something which is, sadly enough, probably true.
Where would Australia be without such insight and journalistic integrity? I know that “Sheik Yer’mami” and the rest of the population will be able to rest a lot safer knowing that such a journalist is willing to bet their lives on his incredible insight.
Your Sincerely,
Mild Colonial Boy, Esq.

P.P.P.S. (01/04/07) Finally the news has hit some larger websites – Little Green Footballs and A Western Heart.
P.P.P.P.S. (01/04/07) In a new surprising development the Australian Press Council backs Gavin King, accuses Blogger of ‘no analogous consideration for the safety of the journalist”. Apparently, the Press Council feels in that in Magical Equivalence Land that there is an equal chance of violence from anti-Mohammandean writers than there is from Muhammadeans. I know which group I would prefer to be threatened by.
