Beheading Journalists for Islamic Peace
Michelle Malkin has the scoop on another beheading of a journalist, this time in Khartoum, for doing his job. Malkin quotes an article in the Scotsman on the murder.
As Malkin pointed out, Islamofascists mean what they say. They want to kill anyone who disagrees with them.
Isn't it time for journalists to join the ranks of freedom-loving people and shine the light of truth on militant Islam? Maybe they could start by reading President Bush's speech rather than the AP's extreme slant on it. The speech transcript includes informaiton on previously unpublished interdictions of terrorists and the ways Bush's administration is trying to preserve our essential liberties.
But you know, most journalists just want peace. Well, here's the "peace" radical Islam will bring.
The Islamofascists want everyone to agree with them so there will be peace.
I want no part of that kind of "peace."
Taha's decapitated body was found dumped on a dirt road on Wednesday. He had drawn protests from Islamic groups last year by reprinting a series of articles questioning the roots of the Prophet Mohammed...As both readers of this blog know, preserving life and liberty are major themes here. Journalism has an essential role in that preservation. When truth and the free flow of information is shut down tyranny takes over. While most journalists will agree with the sentiment that free speech is an essential, they're often slow to recognize the imminent danger from Islamofascist tyrants like the ones who have beheaded Taha, Nick Berg and many other journalists.
... Taha himself was an Islamist, but his criticism of other Islamic groups angered people. In the 1990s, an attempt was made on his life after he wrote an article about Islamist leader Hassan al-Turabi which offended many.
Last year Taha was tried and his paper closed for three months for blasphemy, but sources said he was under close protection by the government during his time in prison.
