#1 It would be grand if some Imam declared that the Louvre was obscene, and that the artwork within should be destroyed as haraam, and that French people should be forced to speak Arabic.

#2 It is not just art. Western values in general are provocative - equality under the law, women as people, freedom of religion, speech and thought, voting. The whole mess is pretty un-Islamic.

#3 Everything humans do provokes Muslims.

#4 Simple enough solution - get rid of muslims. Send 'em home, do nasty things to those that balk, and shoot those that try to come back. Problem at least temporarily solved.

If we cut ALL food exports to the Islamic world, there would be about 40% fewer muslims in 36 months. If we were as arrogant and insolent as muslims, we'd do it.

There is an ongoing war between us and them, our values and theirs. The sooner we understand that and get on a war footing, the more likely we are of surviving as a free people. I refuse to be a muslim, and I will NEVER be a slave.

#5 "How, many are asking, should a liberal society respectfully deal with immigrants who often espouse illiberal values?"

They shouldn't.

Idiots.
