This is for the person who told me recently that Muslims have every right to be offended by Western culture. Of course they do. All Im saying to offended Muslims is: do us all a favor and keep it to yourself, because nobody likes a crybaby. But now Im thinking that perhaps Im wrong about this and that maybe we should all be a lot more offended, as often as possible, to fully embrace this new culture of knee- ense and give it every chance to work. After all, we in the West have many more reasons |

to be offended by the Religion of Peace than it has to be offended by us. Im offended by the very term, Religion of Peace, which I regard as a far greater lie than any of the superstitious nonsense about flying horses or angels in caves and I think it should be prosecutable under the Trade Descriptions Act.

Also, I find the Islamic attitude to women, gays, Jews and apostates to be really quite deeply and profoundly offensive. And I would like to emphasize just how offensive I find it, if I may. I find it mind-blowingly, soul-witheringly, and unforgivably offensive. Where do I apply for my compensation?

Now, I want to make it clear that Im only offended by Islam because Im offended by cruelty, intolerance and oppression. If Islam wasnt cruel, intolerant and oppressive, well then I wouldnt be as offended as I am.

Obviously, I would still be somewhat offended because Islam would still be pushy, confrontational, demanding and threatening. If it wasnt pushy, confrontational, demanding and threatening, I wouldnt be as offended as I am. Obviously, I would still be somewhat offended by the ridiculous hair-trigger sensitivity to criticism and, of course, the cynical manipulation of language; who could forget that? So yes, Im offended by Islam in so many ways you really dont want to know.

Well, Im offended by a religion that regards the female half of humanity as innately inferior and deficient. And Im offended that we all pretend that isnt the case when we all know it blood well is and it will remain the case until we do something about it, because nobody else is going to.Im offended that I live in a society where a little girl can be forced to walk around everywhere concealed inside a black sack. Is that religious freedom or is that child abuse? And at what precise point

does one become the other . . . without the Catholic Church being involved?Im offended by the dozens of Sharia courts in Britain that are allowed to treat women, by law, as less than fully human. And by the thousands of genital mutilations not one of which has ever been punished, despite carrying a theoretical 14-year prison sentence and Im offended and embarrassed, in equal measure, by the deafening silence on these matters from progressive Western feminists who think we shouldnt impose

our values on Muslim women because thats the job of Muslim men.Im offended that anyone who burns a Quran, in Britain, will go to prison. But if they burn a bible, they wont.Im offended when Saudi-funded Islamic schools are found to be using books that teach violence and hatred and are not shut down and everyone connected with them run out of the country on a rail.Im offended that we allow extra unnecessary cruelty in slaughterhouses to accommodate Islamic superstition. And then we allow

that meat to be sold, unlabeled, and fed to children in schools without their parents knowledge or consent: because weve learned, the hard way, that if we dont do things the Islamic way, therell be trouble. Im offended by that.Im offended that publishers wont touch certain books or that the media wont reproduce certain images because theyre afraid of Muslim violence. And Im doubly offended by our societys cowardly tacit acceptance of this. Im, personally, deeply offended by anyone

thinks Im stupid enough to think I should give a d*mn about their carefully manufactured feelings especially when it comes to the cultural terrorists favorite word: Islamophobia . . . which is Islamic shorthand for free speech, secular democracy and common sense. Im offended that anyone who speaks up for these things is likely to be deemed an Islamophobe and, by extension, a racist. Because Islam is a race, apparently. A race of quite diverse ethnicity, it has to be said. But if you point

out, youll be called an Islamophobe and a racist. Yet we know that racism is driven by fear and insecurity which manifest themselves in things like: intolerance, supremacism and separatism. Precisely the qualities weve come to associate with the religion of permanent offense. The one that likes to label everybody else mentally ill.If Islam is a race and either it is or it isnt . . . lets make up our minds, shall we? then Islamic supremacism is racism and Islam is the most racist ideology

on the planet. On the other hand, if its not a race, then criticizing it is not racist. So whats it gonna be people? Racist or not racist? Answers on a postcard to the racists at the East London mosque: an institution which you wont be surprised to hear offends me. Indeed, whenever I hear, as I often do, about a visiting preacher at that place, calling for death to gays and not being immediately arrested and deported with a firecracker up his as* Im offended to the point of virtual

apoplexy. And Im incandescently offended that Islam doesnt like free speech unless youre preaching death to gays and apostates. And then you can have as much of it as you like, in the sure knowledge that no Muslim, extremist or moderate, will call you what you are: a savage and a nutcase. But if you speak up for freedom, pluralism, equality, diversity and genuine human rights, youre guaranteed to be slandered as a racist and an Islamophobe and you are also guaranteed to be threatened with

physical violence. Im offended by that. And if youre not offended by it or if youre pretending not to be offended because you dont want to cause offense, then youve got something seriously wrong with you. NO OFFENCE..
