Guess what? Germany thinks it ought to have a Muslim public holiday. Here’s the idea:
| “A substantial fraction of Germany’s government — and if polls are to be believed, the German people — believe that creating an official state Muslim holiday will somehow spare us from the wrath of fanatical Islamists.” |
Does this seem familiar? Oh, yeah… now it comes back:
| Jack: | (gingerly moving Giant’s thumb from his own Adam’s apple) Giant, sir, I was thinking. If you don’t eat me (speaking fast and enthusiastically), why I could go back down the beanstalk and get the King to make you a saint. They’d canonize you and everything. You’d be known in the whole kingdom as “Saint Giant.” Or…wait a minute (strking thoughtful pose while bunched in Jack’s fist), how does “Giant, the Saint” sound? That’s a little more cool, huh? What do you say? Think of relics, processions, statues…“Giant, the Great” — how’s that? Better? |
| Giant: | Eh… Saint? Hmm. Let’s talk about it after dinner… heh. |
| Chomping sound off camera… Fade to black. |
Hat tip: Oh, come on. How do you hat tip Mark Steyn — buy him a mink baseball cap?
I am reminded of all the happy Muslim holidays of my childhood. The beheadings, the honor killings. Oh, the happy times we spent decorating the insides of cafes and pizza parlors with Jewish blood!
And now to hear my happy memories will travel to Germany, where oom-pa-pa can become boom-pa-pa, and beirgarten, feargarten.
I shall miss my beloved bratwurst and Pepsi, but the dull ache of my Ramadan fast, punctuated by the gluttonous sunset Iftar shall be ample compensation.
– the stupid krauts haven’t learned a thing – they richly deserve what they get
My idea of sparing us from the wrath of fanatical Islamists is a bit different. Anybody care to guess my idea?
LOL at a4g’s comment!
Being from Germany i have to admit, that not all krauts are plain stupid – lots just don’t have a damn clue …
So i’m stuck between resignation and anger and have to turn my face towards sunset to see a light at the horizon.
Please keep dipping the german nose into it’s own shitty mindset – but keep some of your faith in us, too. Thank you.
