Dealing with these excitable muslim men is like dealing with autistic children. They riot, murder and cry due to a cartoon. And two years later, some are still so angry they are willing to take a human life. |

It is my belief that Arab Muslim men are some of the most immature people on the face of the planet. Why? I don't know... |

In this emergency, we should fly in Prince Philip of England to give his thoughts and sort this one out. He's been known for his level headed comments when it comes to foreign things like this. |

* Speaking to a driving instructor in Scotland, he asked: "How do you keep the natives off the booze long enough to get them through the test?"[17]
* When visiting China in 1986, he told a group of British students, "If you stay here much longer, you'll all be slitty-eyed".[17]
* After accepting a gift from a Kenyan citizen he replied, "You are a woman, aren't you?"[17]
* "If it has four legs and is not a chair, has wings and is not an aeroplane, or swims and is not a submarine, the Cantonese will eat it." (1986)[17]
* In 1966 he remarked that "British women can't cook."[17]
* To a British student in Papua New Guinea: "You managed not to get eaten then?"[17]
* Angering local residents in Lockerbie when on a visit to the town in 1993, the Prince said to a man who lived in a road where eleven people had been killed by wreckage from the Pan Am jumbo jet: "People usually say that after a fire it is water damage that is the worst. We are still trying to dry out Windsor Castle."[18]
* On a visit to the new National Assembly for Wales in Cardiff, he told a group of deaf children standing next to a Jamaican steel drum band, "Deaf? If you are near there, no wonder you are deaf."[19][17]
* In 2002, he asked an Indigenous Australian businessman, "Do you still throw spears at each other?"[20][17]
* Said to a Briton in Budapest, Hungary, "You can't have been here that long � you haven't got a pot belly." (1993)[17]
* Seeing a shoddily installed fuse box in a high-tech Edinburgh factory, HRH remarked that it looked "like it was put in by an Indian".[21][22]
* "Aren't most of you descended from pirates?" (in 1994, to an islander in the Cayman Islands)[17]
* At the height of the recession in 1981 he said: "Everybody was saying we must have more leisure. Now they are complaining they are unemployed."[17]
* Upon presenting a Duke of Edinburgh Award to a student, when informed that the young man was going to help out in Romania for six months, he asked if the student was going to help the Romanian orphans; upon being informed he was not, it was claimed the 85-year-old duke added: "Ah good, there's so many over there you feel they breed them just to put in orphanages."[23]
* At the University of Salford, he told a 13-year-old aspiring astronaut: "You could do with losing a bit of weight."[24]
* In 1997, the Duke of Edinburgh, participating in an already controversial British visit to the Jallianwala Bagh massacre (Amritsar Massacre) Monument, provoked outrage in India and in the UK with an offhand comment. Having observed a plaque claiming 2,000 casualties, Prince Philip observed, "That's not right. The number is less."[19]
* During a Royal visit to a Tamil Hindu temple in London, he asked a Hindu priest if he was related to terrorist organization the Tamil Tigers.[17]
* In 1996, he drew sharp criticism when he said "a gun is no more dangerous than a cricket bat in the hands of a madman". The comment came in the wake of the massacre of 16 children and their teacher in Dunblane, Scotland.[19]
* In 1987, he wrote in his book If I Were an Animal that "In the event that I am reincarnated, I would like to return as a deadly virus, in order to contribute something to solve overpopulation."[25]

Good list Peel.
By my reckoning and the law of averages he's gotta get it right one day. Maybe it's this one. He'll be the hero. |

When did he get it wrong? This man is a comedic genius. Don't you get it? British humor is supposed to be dry. |

Elsewhere, dealing with the issue of Denmark, I wrote: |
Golly, that's the best news we've had in ages.
Were I to have any say in it whatsoever, I would have the cartoon in question on huge, immense billboards all over the Western world in a deliberate attempt to provoke war between Muslim extremists and the non-Muslim population, guaranteeing victory for the latter. Those peaceful Muslims, who are supposedly numerically significant, need not engage in battle, or could even join our side.
Some Muslim state like Iran gives us static? I'd see to it that they were systematically and meticulously deconstructed, using thermonuclear instruments of mass annihilation. |
I'm so freakin' quotable!
