Behold, O DPP, Another Racist Rant

One less Nigerian "Neocon" biatch for Pepe to have to hate

Anonymous said...: It's truly an obsession with you. And it is so reminiscent of the "yellow peril" concern of your west coast compatriots in the early part of the 1900s (not to mention the jewish threat of the 30s) that I am truly surprised you aren't being more circumspect.; 3/21/2007 8:40 PM
Arelcao Akleos said...: Ah, I see, you proffer "Racist Rant" for an article on a gentleman of Nimes doing some free lance eyesurgery, and then get all huffington and puffington when your bag gets stuffed with a richness of like examples?
Note two things, since your memory is a durable as your wit is sharp.
First. You have forgotten that a belief system is not a "race". For instance, that is why you have not been accused of Racist Rants [just Rants] for your diatribes against "Neocons". Remember: Race is biological. Belief is nonbiological. Put one in your left hand, the other in your right, and walk gingerly around Nawlins until the locals know you can tell a ball from a dick.
Second. The Jewish threat of the 1930's???? Is Petain suggesting it was the Ricains who were going around bleating about the "Jewish problem" in the 1930s???? This is comedy of a low order....which is as high as comedy gets in Versailles. Now go back to highlighting your favorite passages of the Protocols of the Elders of Neocon, while supping on Vichy Sois and listening to the strains of Pathetique.
Ah, yes, Islam Militant is like the 1930s variety of Neocon...If Pepe had not invented himself, no one would have conceived it possible.; 3/21/2007 9:07 PM
My Frontier Thesis said...: Racism: 1: a belief that race is the primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race.

AA doesn't believe the above. He believes that Militant Islam is ravaging the world, and Militant Islam is an idea that can be picked up by anyone. AA is merely waging a war of ideas against the folks who would happily slice us all up, even after we accepted Allah.

Meanwhile, the Taleban searches for more Buddha statues to destroy...; 3/21/2007 10:21 PM
Arelcao Akleos said...: Pepe, so you believe the Ayatollah Khomeini was a semite? Johnny Taliban? Ibrahim Cooper? Those students in Nigeria who just lynched their teacher? Those "youths" in Thailand fresh from slaughtering Buddhists? Those heroes of the mosques who cut the throats of christian girls in Indonesia? You believe they were/are semites??
On the other hand who consider the few christians and jews left in the Islamic middle east to be non-semites?
So you are suggesting Islam=Semite????? As I said, if Pepe had not invented himself no one would consider it possible; 3/21/2007 10:34 PM

Arelcao Akleos said...: "But if you have a better term for the muslim equivalent of the generally accepted definition of anti-semitism, we can use it instead."

Eh???? It is by considering Jews as being marked by race that one can see hatred of Jews as "anti-semite". For example, the hatred of "Neocons" where the emphasis is on Mr. Wolfowitz, for example, as opposed to what Mr. Wolfowitz believes.

One can be anti-Communist, yes? One can be anti-Communist without being anti-Socialist, yes? As long as the socialist is not a communist or an enabler of communism. So one can be anti Islam Militant. And one can be anti IM without being antiMuslim, so long as the muslim is not a Militant or the enabler of the militant.

You quoted me correctly, but conveniently forgot the very next passage wherein I point out that this memory of yours has forgotten a very major point. But then, in Planet Pepe, if you have forgotten you have forgotten then that is equated with having remembered. Very very precious.; 3/21/2007 11:07 PM

no

To be Muslim is to be Semitic in the same sense that to be Christian is to be Semitic

Arelcao Akleos said...: Pepe
"converted to the notion that Militant Islam is ravaging the world."

Are you saying you have been so converted? Because, brother, to you I do preach. And if you have not been so converted, then in preaching to you how is it to the converted?

Your amusing use of the word "conversion" aside, it is precisely that issue, of whether or not the global actions of Islam Militant is a threat to nonMuslim societies and peoples, which is at issue here. But it is not a question of faith, requiring "conversion", it is a question of simply tracking what these actions are, what their consequences, and how they are justified by those who carry them out. And this to be judged not by the a few flippant seconds while Versailles wonders why its champagne drinking should be disturbed. But to be judged by the span of decades in which countries like Indonesia and Malaysia turn to IM and to Sharia, and countries like Phillippinnes and Thailand face dismemberment or submission. [to pick just one front of the conflict..this is happening on all fronts. Not that Versailles will ever know where that blade came from which separates its dundered head from its drandruffed shoulders]; 3/21/2007 11:19 PM

Hmmm, Pepe, if you but reread all those posts on "
Eyeless in Nimes" you will see that I never, ever, related it to Islam Militant. Nor Islam. Nor MIlitancy. I did emphasize the excuses his advocate gave for the crime. [arranged marriage, geographical origin, and vague references to a madness whose only evidence was the crime which it sought to exculpate]. And scoffed at that sort of "search" for motive.
You, however, seem to have identified criticism such acts as he committed and how defended by his lawyer as a reference to Islam Militant. Why, brother, do you think Islam Militant has anything to do with his decision to tear out his wife's eyeballs? You'd better send back your matrimonly orders from Yemen, if so, for who knows what your imminent earthly delights would do with your balls if sufficiently provoked.; 3/21/2007 11:27 PM
Pepe le Pew said...: So are we to understand that this rant just happens to be against a muslim but that, in this case and only in this one, you are really bringing attention to the crime and not the religious belief of the perpetrator?; 3/21/2007 11:29 PM
Arelcao Akleos said...: Pepe said: "To be Muslim is to be Semitic in the same sense that to be Christian is to be Semitic
aa - weren't the first people converted to islam at the time of the prophet of semitic descent?"

Largely, although there were various Mediterranean types and Persians living in the Peninsula [Nestorian Christians and Zoroastrians...it was then a very eclectic place compared to what came after] who were lumped into the conversions of "cities" Mohammed increasingly insisted upon in the later stages of his life.
Not that first people to be converted to Christianty were, horrors of horrors, also largely of semitic descent.
Islam, from the beginning, had as much variety, if not more, of peoples under its sway than did Christianity. It's a brute fact of history.
But then mere facts are only a hindrance to the Correct Concept on Planet Pepe; 3/21/2007 11:33 PM
Arelcao Akleos said...: Pepe said: "And one can be anti IM without being antiMuslim...
sure. that would be me and you would be the other."

No, as you have made clear you are not really anti IM at all. In fact, you have long suggested there is only a small handful of miscreants and there is really no IM at all. And thus you ever try to reduce a movement that has hundreds of millions behind it to "al qaeda", or even to one poor pathetic chump now in custody in Gitmo.
You are akin to those fellow travelers to Communism in the cold war who declared that "communism" was only a fringe element of the Socialist International, perhaps even largely the hallucination of rightwing Yankee warmongers, while the great engines of socialism moved on under the command of directives from such as Moscow or Beijing.
You, unlike that poor woman in Nimes, have blinded yourself....Or are you well aware of the con and try to blind us?; 3/21/2007 11:38 PM
Arelcao Akleos said...: Pepe pissed on his own foot again: "So are we to understand that this rant just happens to be against a muslim but that, in this case and only in this one, you are really bringing attention to the crime and not the religious belief of the perpetrator?"

This rant??? Linking this story [and it is an interesting story, or is the plucking out of the eyes of uppity wives a common occurrence in this France? ] is a Rant? The "Racist Rant", of course, in the title, referred to Pepe's use of it, and his very curious obtuseness as to the meaning of "Racist". Note that I was far more interested in the tactics of his advocate than the man himself. The man was an animal, at best.. The lawyer, though, has presumably reflected over the act, and tried to arrive at what would exculpate it. His choices were indeed interesting. As is your choice, or inability, to move beyond your peculiar desire to make this a question of Islam when the question was not raised. Why, are you dying to defend your right to Scarecrows?; 3/21/2007 11:45 PM
Tecumseh said...: AA: I missed on this discussion. I can't really add much (if anything) to it, since, alas, there is not much logic left on the other side. But, as a general rule, this is what the tendency is when one falls prey to an ideology: the mind gets atrophied, logical thinking suffers. When dogma is confronted by reality, the reaction (unless you're talking about someone of the caliber of, say, George Orwell) is to retreat further and further into incoherence, to protect said dogma. After a while, this leads to a complete disconnect with both reality and logic.

Now, what can one do? A mind is a terrible thing to waste, as someone once said. Maybe JJ, in his infinite hoppy wisdom, has a better insight?; 3/21/2007 11:53 PM

You've been warned, Citoyens.
Would you care to clarify what we have been warned about?

Also you used the subtitle "Don't Worry Be Happy" which has been used repeatedly in the context of your fantasy of an impending muslim doomsday. How does that fit in the context of your being simply reporting on some random crime? What should one worry about?; 3/22/2007 12:10 AM
Arelcao Akleos said...: This was explained in fulsome detail more than once. It must be hard to read the book of nature if one can't even read books.
Now, go back and reread. However, a guide to Pepe the Perplexed: "Arranged Marriages, Southern Morocco, Madnesses surmised after the fact". And, of course, "Eyeballs"; 3/22/2007 12:13 AM
Arelcao Akleos said...: Pepe bleated "Don't Worry Be Happy" which has been used repeatedly in the context of your fantasy of an impending muslim doomsday. "

Are you saying a doomsday is pending for Muslims? Care to explain to your local Imam?
Of course what you were trying to do was say Taking Threat of IM Seriously = Fantasy of a Doomsday Caused by Muslims.
In a nutshell the shell of the nut that is Duke of Planet Pepe.; 3/22/2007 12:17 AM
Arelcao Akleos said...: "How does that fit in the context of your being simply reporting on some random crime? What should one worry about"

Not a random crime. A random crime is one that happens randomly, out of a distribution of chance. Even DPP, when not on a binge of intellectual dis-semenation, will one day be able to admit that to himself [or at least there is a chance of that. Although, if so, it would perhaps not yet be random]. Now behold that advocate, that masterful French legal mind, that reflecting over his client, and seeking out that which exculpates his act, arrives at his three "arguments". It anything shows the decay, even will to darkness [unclarity, obscurity, night] in the western mind it is such instances as this [or, on a milder note, such as that of the German judge that has discovered that the law of the land should be subservient to the law of the tribe].
It is very curious, although richly comical, that DPP insists on Worrying, and not being Happy. After all, what is there to worry about on Planet Pepe? Nothing but Neocons, boys.; 3/22/2007 12:25 AM
Pepe le Pew said...: warn us against arranged marriages? to repeat my question in the other post, is it your purpose to wreck jj's dreams of pre-arranged matrimony with some undergraduate sheherazade?

Nothing but Neocons, boys.
And now that they're virtually extinct and reduced to being a mere unfortunate memory, tomorrow is looking very good.

I for one am off to bed.; 3/22/2007 12:34 AM

Yoy may have also asked about that phrase,
but your words "Don't Worry Be Happy" which has been used repeatedly in the context of your fantasy of an impending muslim doomsday. " say that there is a context of my having a "fantasy of an impending muslim doomsday".
That phrase of yours was the issue in my response. Pepe as worrywot was addressed in another comment.
