"Almost ashamed"

Rusty Shackleford at the Jawa Report has a follow-up item on the "gentleman" pictured here from this year's Great Cartoon Jihad. He says he's almost ashamed over the message depicted on his sign.

The Jawa Report post does a nice job comparing BBC's coverage of Mizanur Rahman's statements and what he actually said. The BBC report, headlined "Cartoons protest man apologizes", glosses over some of the more vile incitements Rahman indulged in, such as:

Oh Allah, we want to see another 9/11 in Iraq, another 9/11 in Denmark, another 9/11 in Spain, in France, all over Europe. Oh Allah, destroy all of them, Amen.

Bomb, bomb France. Bomb, bomb France. Nuke, nuke France. Nuke, nuke France.

We want to see them coming home in body bags. We want to see their blood running in the streets of Baghdad and Fallujah.

We want to see the Mujahideen shoot down their planes like the way they shoot down birds. We want to see their tanks burnt, just like we burn their flags.

We want to see their freedoms destroyed. We want to see all of them removed from Muslim land. Oh, Allah don't leave any of them alive in Iraq, don't leave any of them alive in Afghanistan, don't leave any of them standing in France.
