Heh. Some Dutch bloggers are *not*...

...going the way that the protestors in the Middle East and elsewhere want them to.

Like these guys at Retecool.

They've essentially declared Snark on Hypocrisy, regarding the image of Mohammed. I suspect someone, somewhere, will be posting "May Allah rip out his spine from his back, and split his brains in two, and then do it over and over again, amen." Such was the praise heaped on the author of "The Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam."

I've provided the mostly-translated lead-in text. Free Translation.com is a useful site, but machine translation has a ways to do yet. It's *still* amazing what they can do these days.

Update: I see SWWBO agrees.

It's in the Flash Traffic/Extended Entry. H/t, JMH.

I edited a bit to keep the Pr0nwise Googlers at bay. I *think* I got the original links correct - any error in that is mine. I didn't put in the links at the end of the text - those are technical links for uploading Fotof**cks. If you want to do that, go to the website and have at it.

"PhotoF**k Friday 03 feb 00h00m 2006
Okay, it's time for this weeks Photograph F**k Friday, probably the
last edition ever ;-). The whole Middle East seems to be outraged because
of a few cartoons starring Mohammed (SAW) in the Danish newspaper
Jyllands Mail, while Mohammed should not be represented in any picture at
all. But Mohammed is represented in pictures in varios ways, for
centuries. This is asking to be used in a PhotoF**k.

"What will we do? We'll use these very images of Mohammed (SAW) [Link
to a mirror of a site with historic islamic pictures] to advertise
everyday products, products that you can get in your local foodstore. No
NSFW products, no foul stuff, just normal everyday products. And when we
say Mohammed, we do not refer to Mohammed B. (That's the murderer of a
dutch filmmaker; he was in the news that day too).
Just to be sure, we want apologize to the sensitive souls that are
opposed to using Mohammed's face for commercial expressions.

The fotof**ks are judged by a very competent, professional jury. The
jury is not corrupt (but a dutch version of the Koran with goldens
caligraphy on the cover will do miracles). They'll make a top three ranking,
based on your skills and humor. The winner will can get a fresh t-shirt
at the Fresh Cotton store at some point in time, so you'll have to work
to win that. Upload your rocking creation here and copy the resulting
code in the reaction field off this topic.

Here is the Retecool logo in various file formats. The photof**kfriday
logo's Kris made, are here.
Don't chat in the Photof**k topic itself, but feel free to do so in the
forumtopic that belongs to this photof**kfriday edition (the ip-ban
button is already running hot). Read the FFV Upload FAQ here."

Although various newsscources paid some attention to this, and although
we had tons of visitors (over 700GB of trafic!) this site did not at
all cause a rage. The maroccan fora decided to neglect us, which is by
far the best thing to do.
