This is so not funny....

Netherlands:Comedian Should Be Killed According To Islam
I saw this up over at Religion of Peace and thought you're kidding me, right?
Unfortunately, they weren't. Clicked around the links and found this interesting account on the blog of fellow traveler and Amsterdam resident Snouck Hurgronje.

"The person who is being threatened, Ewout Jansen, is the son of Dutch Islam-expert Hans Jansen. Hans Jansen wrote the commentary on the letter Van Gogh's assasin Mohammed Bouyeri left on the filmmaker's body. I translated the commentary and published it here.

My summary. Fledgling comedian Ewout Jansen, makes "goat jockey" jokes about Muslims. Muslims in the audiences issue threats. Student paper Folia asks for interview with imam of As-Soenna Mosque. Imam turns up with As-Soenna spokesman / translator, Mr. Kabli. Folia interviews first imam, then the translator. Translator says serious Muslims should attack and kill "those who insult Islam, the religion of peace". Just as the letter Assasin Bouyeri left on Van Gogh's body says. There is an uproar in the press after Folia publishes the interview. Alderman Achmed Aboutaleb visits the mosque to have tea with the imam. He dissembles and declares to the Amsterdam city council that the translator was just a visitor to the mosque and has nothing to do with As-Soenna.

Alderman Aboutaleb is a prominent Amsterdam Labour politician, who is bound to go into national politics in a few years. He is the great white hope of the struggling Labour party and commands the Morroccan Muslim voter base in the big cities. He is the face of the sophisticated Muslims, who pretent moderation and who know that nothing will endanger the chances of the umma to gain power so much as firing too early and shooting their bolt. "

Islam In Europe has some more info on the way the meeting went down.
"Assoenna Mosque claims that the person interviewed is not an official representative of the mosque and was just passing through. Folia, on the other hand, claims they talked to an interpreter named Mr. Kabli and that the mosque brought him to be interviewed. He spoke in the presence of several mosque leaders. The mosque's imam, Mohammed Bouljhaf, was also present during the interview, but left halfway through, before the comments were made."

I love this: "the person interviewed is not an official representative of the mosque and was just passing through."

Like he was some kind of Johnny Appleseed of terror or something.

Or like those damn troublemaker Imams who pimped the Mohammed Cartoons.

Remember that bunch? How they went slinking around the umma, stirring up trouble? And it looks like there are a lot of places to make muzzie mischief in the Netherlands. In 1970 there were only 8 mosques, now there are more than 450.

Holy Muslim Shit Disturbers! Just like the assassination of Turkish journo, Hrant Dink, these so called 'holy men' are stirring that well known brown substance in the Netherlands, too.
