According to the Gates of Vienna blog, the author is "an unabashed Islamophobe. I know, I know — a “phobia” is an irrational fear, and there’s nothing irrational about a fear of Islam. Just ask Daniel Pearl — oh, wait a minute; that’s right: you can’t. But until someone comes up with a better and more concise term, it will have to do: I’m using freedom of expression to cover my Islamophobia. I’m cowering behind the First Amendment in order to insult, denigrate, dishonor, and defame the Legions of the Prophet. Mea culpa."
The Daniel Pearl joke, for those with short memories, is that he was killed by Islamic fundamentalists.
I, too, cower behind the First Amendment (and the Second, thank you very much) "in order to insult, denigrate, dishonor, and defame the Legions of the Prophet".
I know they don't like it. Fuck 'em.
