Widow attends massacre trial wearing Mohammed cartoon

MADRID – The widow of a man killed in the Madrid bombings attended the trial of Islamic radicals with a cartoon of the prophet Mohammed with a bomb on her T-shirt.

The judge in charge of trial on Monday asked security guards to check the woman’s T-shirt and ordered the cameras to halt live transmissions. Initially, he thought the woman could been a relative of one of the 29 accused and thought she might have put some kind of message on her T-shirt.

The T-shirt was a copy of the cartoons showing Mohammed on top of a bomb which were first printed by a Danish magazine and which caused disturbances in Muslim countries around the world. The judge decided the woman was free to wear what she liked and could come back to the court if she wished. The woman, who was not identified, is a member of the Association of those Affected by Terrorism.

Anon Coward says she should be shot.

Grow some balls and show who you are.

This woman is a hero and F*** the cowards that blew up this building (and post AC to show how cow'd they are).

Why should she be shot? She's being peaceful. The savages on trial, however, blow people up - people who they've never met. If anyone should be shot, it should be them.

They should be provoked as much as possible. They will learn to be tolerant of everyone in the world and not just the people they call brother.

Now we simply have to convince the timid amongst them to stand up to the radicals and put them back in the shed where they belong.

Whats the difference between her and the guys who blew up the train's, same mentality if you ask me.

You don't need a bomb to cause terror, I know enough muslim girls who are afraid (read terrorized) that some punk assauls them due to their hijab.

whats the difference between her and the guys who blew up the trains? Well, for starters she didnt kill 191 people, nor does she intend to kill anyone because others do not agree with her way of thinking

Anonymous said...

Now, this is an interesting problem. On the one hand, I appreciate the fact that she's trying to make a statement with her shirt. However, I believe the statement is being misdirected. It's unfair, in my opinion, to attack all Muslims with an iconic representation of their leader when there are very few who are actually being accused of any crime at all.

Either way, the judge made the right call. Good to see someone with their head on straight,

You farking hypocrite, can't you see that one person being afraid to wear an article of clothing(hibab) is the same as another person being afraid to wear an article of clothing(shirt)?

In the US, if Muslim girls should be free to wear whatever they want, then everyone else should be able to also.

Anonymous said...

The shirt makes a statement of defiance against those who would cowardly attack innocent people (they ARE innocent, no matter what their personal doctrine says), where their (the terrorists) actions are that of blatant disregard for human life and adversarial combativeness. That, is 'the difference'. She's not provoking them, they're choosing to be provoked by a cartoon.

Fuck you. We Danes are not proud of those cartoons published, and we respect and welcome our Muslim citizens. It's just a select few assholes that promote this shit, even the newspaper explained at they're sorry of what they did. Learn to tolerate other people's cultures and religions, then you won't have such a pessimistic and cynical view on the entire world. These cartoons hurt everyone's religion that is affiliated to Islam, and yeah, we have freedom of speech and whatever, but that was disrespectful of the newspaper, and I'm ashamed to identify myself as a Danish citizen when these situations happen.

Satire has always been a huge part of our written media, but the line crosses when you insult people's lives which are built around religion.

Muslums are a primitive, backwards, uneducated, piece of sh*#t culture. Unfortunately there are lots of the stupid bastards walking the planet. They contribute a disproportinately amount to this world compared to the amount of these low lifes living here. Much like africans, they just use up resources. Worthless sand niggers.

Christian, are you kidding? I could find 100 examples of the media poking fun at Christianity, Judaism, Hindus, Buddha, or whoever. Other races are able to laugh at themselves.

Family Guy and South Park regularly have 'guest appearances' of Jesus, you don't see Christians Jihading Fox or Viacom...

Anonymous said...

So it's okay to make a portrait of the virgin Mary out of dung because christians don't usually riot and kill eachother over such things, but not to portray Mohammed in any manner because Muslims do?

If we bow to that, might that inspire similar acts by other groups? I don't want to see evolution deniers burning down schools because the textbooks 'offend their religion' and hey, it worked for the muslims.

Terrorism is a methodology, not an ideology, and it spreads only so much as it works. It worked beautifully in spain and now the world will pay the price for their cowardice. The only way to stop it is to be unswayed by violent shenanigans, or better - do the opposite of what they want to accomplish through terror. The statement of defiance by this woman makes her a patriot to the entire free world.

The Idea behind terrorism isn't to hurt or kill the people that are actually hurt or killed. Its to cause panic and cowardness to the people that wern't harmed. In a way its cowing them into submission with their views. She did what she thought best and showed a little courage. Amen to that.

Don't pretend to talk for the Danes or anyone else. Why are stone-age beliefs deserving of respect? Is the idea that the earth is flat deserving of respect today? You say you're ashamed to identify yourself as Danish - I would say that most Danes are pleased about that.

Fuk all Muslims, weather they are terrorists or not, fuc anyone who would get offended by something so stupid, belief and worship of divine beings should be in ones soul, and nothing materialistic or artistic should change or alter or increase those beliefs.

Religion is for the weak. A scape-goat for people who can't bare to contemplate the meaningful questions and find the real truth about life. All these false groups that draw imaginary borders around land and figurative lines that our actions cannot cross are just out to control people and make them think what they think. Fundamentalists from all religions should just drop their stupid crusade towards the end of civilization and try to live a thoughtful, calm, and happy life on their own terms, not a book's.

Anonymous said...

This lady has every right to express herself this way because that is what "Islam" means to her. Hell, can you blame her? I think Muslims should grow up learn to tolerate people "insulting" (i.e. expressing their views) their religion because people in this day and age have a RIGHT to do that you know.

"Islam is THE religion of peace and WE WILL F****** KILL ANYONE WHO THINKS OTHERWISE!!!!!" sums it up nicely.

SimCity4 Dude said...

I really can't believe what I am hearing here. You say you would kill all of them even if they are peaceful?
I think it is your head that needs seeing too.
Ask any muslim if they would wear a t-shirt ridiculing Buddha, Jesus, Mary, or any other religious icon and all of us who AREN'T the taliban or al quiada (99.9999%) will say no. So read up before you post you ignorant shits who keep saying kill them all. Doesn't that bring you down to their level? Besides, American has already killed much, much more people than any terrorist attack against them.

Christian said...

Watcher > My name is Christian, I'm Agnostic.

All this religious bullshit is so tense anyway, there's no need to add fuel to the fire.

Digg User said...

Glad to see one sane person (Simcity4 Dude), the majority of idiots posting this dead to Muslims crap are just as bad as these "Muslim" terrorists that they keep talking about.

Every religion has terrorists, the Christians have groups like the KKK who have committed horrible atrocities, the most recent being the Oklahoma bombing in the mid 90s which killed many Americans, especially children.

Europe as well is pretty damn bad, putting aside the whole colonialism/slavery, imperialism and crusades, European countries like the Netherlands have long pretended to be multicultural and acceptant of diversity - but it took this very cartoon to show how xenophobic they truly are. I'm not saying all of them are racist or discriminatory, but many closet racist definitely came out of the woodworks.

Everyone needs to become an atheist, and everyone needs to get over their piousness and sense of purity (whether that be through religion, culture or ethnicity). GET OVER YOURSELVES, you're no better then anyone else.

Message to the Conservatives/Fundamentalists:

Christians: Stopping blaming the Muslims for terror, remember that your history involves conversion by terror, 'humanitarian aid', and the crusades. Christians did and still do get offended by depictions of Christ and the bible, so don't expect others to not get offended by negative images of their religious figures.

Muslims: It is unnecessary to fight a battle to assert your beliefs, doing so only wastes time, resources and security.

Jews: Yea you were persecuted in the past, but its time to make peace with the past and to stop old hatreds from thriving.

It's time to end all this petty squabbling over who's religion is better, rather then everyone become an Atheist, I say everyone become a Pastafasarianist - there's room for everyone, and there's only one creator god - the great flying spaghetti's monster - who neither judges you nor cares about you!

You guys know nothing about Islam, you say we disrespect women, then how come Western women are converting to Islam:

"In a recent pole in the (US), 100,000 people per year in America alone, are converting to Islam. For every 1 male convert to Islam, 4 females convert to Islam"

How come it is the Fastest growing religion in the world? How come it has over 1.5 Billion followers.

You know why, those people actually learned about Islam before attacking it and realized that true Islam is Peaceful, not like you fascist bastards

People,there is HUGE misunderstanding.Islam does not tolerate terrorism.It is stated clearly in Holy book Koran , people who kills one is as if killed all mankind.And killer cannot stay as muslim.These bomber terrorist either dont know that or are driven by another political,financial motivates.Most of muslims does not approve these acts.Bin laden etc.. does not act in the name of Islam.A minority of this kind of "muslim" causes all muslim world to be seen as terrorist.This is not true.As stated in previous post,Islam is fastest growing religion in Europe and States,please search why is that.Did you ever heard of Mevlana Celaleddin Rumi?There is organization in states that spreads his beliefs,Rumi Forum.Just look what these people do..Because it is a religion of tolerance,peace and safety.Even word muslim means safe people.

Bahtiyar said...

And for this man that commented as :
"Islam is THE religion of peace and WE WILL F****** KILL ANYONE WHO THINKS OTHERWISE!!!!!"
This is simply a stupid muslim who can not state what he thinks.How can you mention a peace, then say you will kill people who thinks otherwise?? This is simply stupid...This is not Islam.
And for that woman , wearing a shirt.I can understand her pain,she lost her relatives.But Prophet Mohammad(S.A.V.) is not the cause.If she should wear a shirt of someone it should be Bin Laden,or whoever made these bombings.We should understand her pain,and help her.Every religion has its radicals,lets not threat all muslims like these few radicals.And try to understand each other.

She has a right to voice her protest,it is called free speech, something those who openly practice fascism & openly want to kill anyone who doesn't believe the way that they dowill ever understand.

Same islamofacist master race mentality as the Nazis.

Because of you; Iraq war started and there many muslims and non-muslim are being killed every day. Islam and all muslims were labeled as terrorist. Our Prophet was insulted. What kind of muslim are you? How come a muslim can damage Islam so much?
You're responsible from all the damage you caused, from all the lives that were lost in WTC and Iraq.

I agree @watcher, the way of demonstrations was not right.

yeah every religion claims to be peaceful i mean who wouldn't but in practice... Out the window goes basic respect for human life and basic decency(this mainly applies to christians+muslims). Muslim isn't a terroristic religion but people who practice it.. well that's a different story. Some guy previously mentioned that every religion have a nutty group but not all of them are consistently committing murder and do you want to guess which one of them are consistent in that field? Be honest and ask yourself that.

Bahtiyar said...

Watcher,
There are protests between muslim people against these terrorists.But they are not made as loud as other protests, you are right.Here is one article from Fethullah Gulen,who is one of the most serious and important thinkers and writers, and among the wisest activists of twentieth-century Turkey and Muslim world about terrorism : http://en.fgulen.com/content/view/1727/
This is widely discussed in press of Islamic countries but it may not be reflected to press in west..

hmm, i think world needs interfaith dialogue. that can bring about piece within religions and between religions.

Do you think that followers of the "convert or die" religion are into an interfaith dialog?

Bahtiyar said...

@watcher,
Interfaith dialogue is done for a long years in Europe and States.Check this out :

Watcher said...

Bahtiyar,

Did it change the attitude of Muslims toward the "infidels"?
As far as I know, Muslim schools still teach that Jews and Christians are apes and pigs.
And do you think interfaith dialog can stop Muslim terrorism worldwide?

Bahtiyar said...

Yes, it made a change.But change takes time, don't expect peoples behaviour to change in a minute.You are wrong about what is teached in Muslim schools.Christins and Jews are not shown as animals.In Muslim faith Christianity and Jew can not be disrespected.Jesus and Moses are accepted as prophets in Muslim faith too.There are many muslim who name their children Isa (different spell of Jesus) and Musa(Moses).
And yes,i believe interfaith dialogue will help stopping terrorism made by ones call himself "muslim".
