Isn’t this supposed to be a humor blog? Because I’m finding nothing to laugh at here. Doesn’t Pam have any sense of history and/or decency? At all? I mean, blood libel? Fucking hell. This shit’s so far out of hand I really don’t know how we’re gonna get past it.

Anyway. I guess that last sentence with the Muslim word for matzoh bit was pretty funny.

Look. A post-menopausal housewife with from hell, I mean lawn guyland, feels threatened by the fact that there exists a religion whose most extreme claimed adherents are as intolerant of the her as she is of them. If that’s not enough to make you believe they’ll do anything, what does it take? Jebus man, what does it take?
As her first commenter says, nuke em. Forget this slow poisoning with depleted uranium rounds, nuke em all. Glowing oil would be, like, cool.
This is why I’ve come around to thinking impeachment isn’t just the just thing to do, but the most pragmatic. Cheney is dead enough inside to become a Kurtz.

“the her”
For some reason I like that typo.

wow, the biggest psycho amongst the wingers?

Oh, and the barnabas fund’s website sucks. Searching the word “roasted”, however, turned up this.
So they did make the claim, however they seem to lack the proof to back it up in any way, shape, or form. It sounds a hell of a lot like a fundraising lie, especially in context.

Muslims eat long pig, or Pammie is an unhinged idiot: which is more likely?

If I understnad the self-rightous indignation correctly; that horrible act 3 years into it, justifies George Bush’s ‘Voice of God’ orders to attack Iraq, kill hundreds of thousands of Muslims and create the conditions that will attract Terrorists to Iraq.

Does that sound about right?

“but Bush is our President and last time I checked the Dhimmicrats haven’t rewritten the constiitution but we know that it’s just a matter of time.”

Was that sentence supposed to have a point?

Also, Pam. “F7”. Use it.

“They hate document. Gets in the way of their statism.”

Right like that time they tried to fly in blatant defiance of the fourth amendment, Whooo doogies, that was a craaazy weekend.

And, again, seriously. F7, Pam. F7.

They hate document.

Donate to the National Fund for Literacy today, and save others from this terrible fate.

They hate document.

But they love lamp.

I think I read something about this in the Protocols of the Elders of Mesopotamia.

They hate document.

Hate is pretty strong but it was a weaker album than Reckoning.

We can debate our home all we want, …

I tried this and lost. My home is surprising well versed on the Constitution. Although I was tripping balls at the time so…

But they love lamp.

You like steamroom?

Man that *shrieking harpy* is messed up…

[updated teh post]

The last time I case across this level of sick fantasy was when I was reading Norman Cohn‘s Book, Europe’s Inner Demons. Though the Malleus Maleficarum was a close second.

Good guy, by the way, that Norman Cohn. Definitely the first place to stop if you’re interested in the history of eliminationist literature. He’s in his mid 90’s now, but still alive, if the Wikipedia entry can be trusted.

So the Homexlamunofacists don’t just want to kill everybody, set up a gigantic empire stretching from Spain to Indonesia, out Hitler the Holocaust, blow up all the iPods, and impose a two drink maximum on Pamalamadingdong and destroy teh Professor’s future robot body? They’re now all Hannibal Lecters as well?

Gee, It’s hard to understand why these people are losing the debate on the Iraq war.

‘”We can debate our home all we want, …”‘

“I tried this and lost. My home is surprising well versed on the Constitution. Although I was tripping balls at the time so…”

javaphil, I almost choked on my cereal when I read that! Not good to laugh while swallowing chunky Great Grains Raisins, Dates, and Pecans 🙂

My understanding is that AIPAC constructed Pam from living tissue in order to make Debbie Schlussel sound reasonable by comparison.

We can debate our home all we want, but Bush is our President and last time I checked the Dhimmicrats haven’t rewritten the constiitution but we know that it’s just a matter of time. They hate document. Gets in the way of their statism.

Do they know the Constitution is a real thing? I mean, you can read it and everything. I have one of those pocket Constitutions. Real neat. Pam and her Boys from Schlemiel might want to read it before they start lecturing others about knowing what’s in the document.

Also, statism? I’m sorry, what nation’s army does Pam want to use to murder all the world’s Arabs/Muslims/Iranians/Palestinians? Or does she want everyone to simultaneously decide to be counter-terrorist terrorists and start exterminating the wretched enemy? How can fascists not know they are statists?

There’s a headless baby (roasted) in Cormac McCarthy’s The Road. Which I just learned is Oprah’s new book club selection.

Were you reading Muslimmunazi comics over your assigned reading again, Ms. Oshry? Gotta stop getting those things mixed up, or you’ll lose your grip on, y’know, reality.

Sounds like the Kuwait baby hoax.

Fine, go ahead and laugh, appeasers, but this is just the tip of the iceberg. If we pull out of Iraq then jihadists will be getting drunk, taking our dogs for walks in the rain, and putting them in the microwave to dry them off. By 2010 they’ll be burglarizing our houses and leaving nothing behund but our toothbrushes and our cameras, and we’ll continue using our toothbrushes and then weeks later when we get the film developed there’ll be pictures of the jihadists sticking our toothbrushes up their butts.

Did somebody say Pammy?

P.S. Shrieking Harpy!

It’s funny how wingnuts steam over the line “Religion of Peace” when it was their own President Bush that said it.

wow, the biggest psycho amongst the wingers?

I, Ann Althouse, see you looking at me, Ann Althouse!

Yes, I, Ann Althouse, know that this is intended as a criticism of Pam Oshry, who has always been warm and affirming to me, Ann Althouse, unlike the vicious and unscrupulous left bloggers. But it’s an implied comparison (“bigGEST”), and I, Ann Althouse, know that you’re comparing her, Pam Oshry, to ME, Ann Althouse!

Well, this kind of character assassination will not fly, buckos!

The fact is I just heard on the radio how Islam–you know, that psycho with a hook for a hand–had just escaped from the nuthouse! I worry about the Constitution…he said that he and The Declaration of Independence were going out tonight and it’s late and he hasn’t called…

I forgot to add that I, Ann Althouse, am not a “wingnut,” as your assertion about Pam Oshry clearly implied.

I, Ann Althouse, am a moderate Democrat who voted for Bill Clinton, that America-hating anti-feminist occupier-of-the-same-room-as-breastesses!

The only funny thing about this rant is that someone actually suggests that it’s the Democrats who are against the Constitution.

I thought that the Bush Jr. / Reagan II position was pretty clear in that being for the Constitution meant that you were a traitor who wanted the terrorists to win.

After all, like they say, “The Constitution is not a suicide pact,” by which they mean, “We think the Constitution is a suicide pact, so let’s get rid of it.”

There is something thickly ironic about a post decrying the savagery of others by starting it with “The enemy must be crushed.” Does this include crushing their babies? (Or rather, continuing to crush their babies?)

El Cid, please try not to confuse the issue with logic. It’ll drive Pam to drink and then she’ll start vlogging her debates with houses and faucets and toilets and well, it won’t be pretty because you know Ann will try to up the ante with another insightful vlogging session of watching TV and repeating exactly what Ryan Seacrest just said. Really, it’s more than I can take on a Wednesday.

(Candy, glad I made your morning. Not too proud to say did a little Snoopy dance in my cube.)

Someone might point out to Pammy (from a safe distance) that, under Saddam, Christians were actually doing pretty well. Tariq Aziz – remember him? – was a Christian.

(And I smell the funk of “fundraising lie” off this “roasted baby” thing, too. Right up there with the Kuwaiti baby incubators and Saddam’s “people shredders” which we somehow never found.)

Ann, you say breasts just like my mother. Unless she gets really flustered, then she says breastit-tit-tit-tit-tits.

Vagina.

“I hate document” is now my life’s motto.

Roasted babies, no way. But I heard that one time, the jihadists picked up this girl, and drugged her, and when she woke up she was in a bathtub full of ice, missing a kidney! And another time, the jihadists were on vacation and saw this cute little dog, and brought it home, and it turned out to be a rat!

No, no, this really happened to someone a friend of mine knew, only it was in the 60s and it was Thanksgiving and it was their baby-sitter that put the baby in the oven coz she thought it was a turkey coz she was stoned on acid- purple microdot, I think, or maybe blotter.

it was their baby-sitter that put the baby in the oven coz she thought it was a turkey coz she was stoned on acid- purple microdot, I think, or maybe blotter.

I heard from a reliable source it was Mickey Mouse acid.

I’ll bet a little googling, which I don’t have time to do at this moment, would provide mucho examples of Moslems making exactly the same accusations against Jews.

I also bet Pam would be mightily amused if she were to learn of such accusations.

WPE, But don’t you know “they” (and Pam has lots of theys) lie. Whereas the folks at the Barnabas fund have no agenda whatsoever and therefore can’t have made this up.

I’ll bet a little googling….would provide mucho examples of Moslems making exactly the same accusations against Jews.

But served over rice? That’s the detail that proves the authenticity.

Since it’s passover I’ll mention that I have pix of my plague finger-puppets up. The cutest way to frighten the kids.

Even the blood libel is a craptasm of craptasticality, on its face. Everybody knows that any homomuslamonazi worth his 72 virgins would serve roast baby over couscous.

Or, for the on-the-go jihadist, roast baby in a pita with hummus. I think you can get that from that vendor cart, what was it… O’Reilly’s Falafel Experience.

On the other hand, the cannibalism of Christian Crusaders on their way to the Holy Land is pretty well documented.

At least, as well documented as anything else we know about this time period.

Once, when I was driving late at night, I picked up a hitchhiker and it turned out to be the Constitution. Well, I ldropped it off, and when I got home I found its Preamble in my backseat, so I went to the National Archive the next day to return it, and when I got there, they told me that the Constitution had been dead for ALMOST SEVEN YEARS!

Why do we listen to this bitter harpy?

youngest one, who’s listening? We’re mocking.

So, Pam wants to incinerate the entire ME wholesale, including the babies, in retaliation for someone in the Middle east supposedly roasting a single baby, the old fashioned way.

sounds like a triumph for commercialized industrial baby-roasting.

Of course, here in America we’re Modern. The stoned babysitter uses the microwave to cook baby.

Nutty “Christian” extremists have been telling this same bullshit story since the Middle Ages, like Little Saint Hugh of Lincoln, who was ritually crucified (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_Saint_Hugh_of_Lincoln) or the Holy Child of La Guardia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holy_Child_of_La_Guardia), which drove the Spanish Inquisition into high gear.

It is surprising to see Pam peddling this nonsense, though, and on Passover, no less.

Since these stories have traditionally been used by Christian nuts to persecute Jews.

Coming Sunday on the Sci-Fi Channel Double Feature:

Tabbouleh of Blood

followed by

Baby Ghanoush!!!

I don’t know if you guys realize the true racism of this. Want to get really scared? For one mad, mad moment, assume that this particular story happened exactly as told. The story is

1) A baby was kidnapped
2) The parents* couldn’t afford the ransom
3) The kidnappers returned the mutilated corpse of the baby.

Where, oh where in that story does it indicate that the kidnappers were Muslim OR that this was a hate crime against Christians? Nowhere in the story does it say the perpetrators were ever caught, much less identified by their religion, and the story does not actually identify the baby as a Christian, either: it includes this in a paragraph about “anti-Christian violence”, but does not say whether the mother or the baby are Christian (although it specifically refers to the 14 year old in the next sentence as “Christian”).

The story tells us the baby was killed because the parents couldn’t afford the ransom, which makes money the motive for the crime. In most societies, people who kidnap for profit are called “criminals” (and are rarely assumed to be official spokesmen for that society). If money was the motive, then the religion of the victim is irrelevant. But if the point was to terrorize Christians, why ask for ransom at all?

And please note that the perpetrators did not intend to eat the baby (otherwise, why would they return the corpse to the parents before they ate it?). And nicely plated on a bed of a rice (instead of just dumped in a ditch somewhere)? It seems pretty clear the intended effect was to terrorize the parents and any other future victims. This was an act of humiliation, terror, and dehumanization, not cannibalism.

So we have an awful story about brutal thugs terrorizing people in a chaotic, lawless society. Most people would read that story and think “How horrible to have monsters like that running loose and have no way to stop them!”
Pam reads this as “Muslims eat babies.”

* I used “parents” instead of “mother” here because it’s highly unlikely that any “mother” currently lacking a husband for any reason would be able to afford even the smallest ransom–and thus would not likely be a target for any kidnapping. “Mother” is much more pathetic to our western ears because it makes the story totally about picking on the defenseless women and children, but this detail increases the likelihood that this story is false.

Baby Ghanoush!!!

I always root for Baby Ganoush on MXC. That baby’s dynamite

First of all, I don’t think roasted baby is Halal.

Second, its only a matter of time before Halliburton signs the baby-roasters to an exclusive contract to provide rations for our troops.

And third, Baby Ghanoush is funny.

All your document are belong to us.

Dorothy, you are forgetting that the Leader can’t be wrong. At this point, for the Leader to not be wrong, there need to be some pretty sick villains and some very sympathetic victims who need savin’. Do you think that hundreds of billions of dollars and over 3000 American lives are worth saving a Muslim baby from the BBQ?

Doncha see, it HAS to be a Christian baby and Muslims MUST be baby eaters! Nothing else makes any sense!

Dorothy, there is about 8,000,000,000 times more rational thought in your analysis of the story compared to the shrieking harpy. The wingnuts would get confused after the third sentence and think you were a supporter of cannibalism. I’m not kidding.

Falafel of Fear!!

Humus of Horror!

Doncha see, it HAS to be a Christian baby and Jews MUST be baby eaters! Nothing else makes any sense!
There, fixed. Sieg Heil!

Wait, what year is this?

Wait, what year is this?

Not entirely sure, my watch has been running backwards since Bush took office.

“The Shawarming”

“Silence of the Labneh”

“Murder Most Foul (Madamas)”
“One Broiled Over a Couscous Nest”

OK, I got nuthin. “Baby Ghannoush” is unstoppable.

Somewhat related: I love how Pammy (and the other Jihad Watch-types) makes such a big deal about taqiyya and how it proves that Muslims are untrustworthy. Never mind that pretending to convert while secretly practicing your original religion has a long history in Judaism (thanks in large part to BS blood libel stories like the Iraq baby one). Maimonides even encouraged it! Or that anti-Semites makes the same arguments about the untrustworthiness of Jews, based on the Kol Nidre text (which isn’t even in Hebrew, is terribly dated, and is only part of the Yom Kippur liturgy because of its melody)

I’m sure pammy discussed this with Johnny Bolt-on over a platter of Kittens a l’orange

Nice to see the site back up!
Silly Pammy is the truth stranger than fiction. Every time I read a little bit of her stuff I have to remind myself that this freak is teh serious. My subconcious wants to read crap like this as some sort of “A Modest Proposal” for the 21st century. My concious mind is boggled by the burning stoopid of it.
They hate document! Its in ur base killin ur doodz!

If they were Lebanese, they would have made Kiddeh…

Greeks make Bableva?

Yeah, nothing can quite compare to Baby Ganoush…

I’m sure pammy discussed this with Johnny Bolt-on over a platter of Kittens a l’orange

I think it’s been pretty well established that Pammy’s preferred dish is baby panda.

“One Broiled Over a Couscous Nest.” I like it.

“I Know What Kibbeh Last Summer.”

“The Mirror, Crack’d, Wheat.”

*imagines a legitimate journalist trying to verify this story*
Scene: Journalist at offices of Barnabas Fund, speaking to Barnabas Fund Press Officer.
Journalist: So, how did you hear this “most shocking report”?
BFPO: Hmm, let me cover my own ass and muddy the waters a bit by dragging my assistant into this lie. Assistant, how did we hear this? Was it from Abdul?
Assistant: I’m not sure, sir. Obviously, it came to us via one of our many, many operatives on the ground in Iraq. But I think it might have been originally from Rahim, actually.
BFPO: So it was Abdul, or Rahim, or maybe it was Eddie. You never know about Eddie. *laughs*
Assistant: Yes, sir, Eddie hah hah.
Journalist: Um, hold on a second. You don’t know who originally sourced you the report? Do you at least have the name of the “mother”? As someone on an internet political comedy site noticed, you didn’t even claim this was a Christian family, yet it leads off a list of crimes against Christians.
BFPO: No, we never got any names in the report from Abdul or Rahim or Eddie or…… could it have been Hamid, assistant?
Assistant: Quite possibly, sir.
Journalist: So how do you justify making the claim in any way? The fact you have no report about this horrible event itself in your archives suggests your organization was unable to verify it in any way, yet people of partisan intent have jumped on the story as proof Muslims have little horns on their heads and cloven feet. Do you feel it’s appropriate to include what sounds like an urban myth that’s been going around your organization, and suggests bias in the minds of those who’d believe it, in a Christmas fundraising petition?
BFPO: Blahblahblah evasive answer trying to spin away from the question towards claims of giving poor kids free stuff
*the end*

I think the source was a forwarded e-mail from angelgrandma3274havefaith@aol.com.

Do you feel it’s appropriate to include what sounds like an urban myth that’s been going around…..

For 1200 years?

Maybe this whole thing got started by Jamil Hussein, who does NOT exist, reporting from inside those domed mosques which WERE NOT destroyed.

if the point was to terrorize Christians, why ask for ransom at all?

Quite. Christians in Iraq have been targetted by both Sunni and Shia religious militia. (So have Mandaeans in the south.) But ‘ransom’ equals ‘criminal gangs’, not sectarian attacks.

But it’s fascinating to see a Jew re-ascribe the blood libel story, because it helps explain the perniciousness of that particular nasty slice of folklore.

Pam and her ilk must be crushed. Not as in run over by a steamroller. As in very disppointed by the Iranians releasing the British sailors. This was a golden opportunity to force a confrontation that would lead to a war but now it’s been resolved. What a pity.

They hate document.

“FAMILY LOVE MICHAEL”.

Pha love Pa!

Fine, go ahead and laugh, appeasers, but this is just the tip of the iceberg. If we pull out of Iraq then jihadists will be getting drunk, taking our dogs for walks in the rain, and putting them in the microwave to dry them off.

This made me laugh harder than anything else I’ve read today. Thanks for the lift.

When I hear a fundie starting in with a spittle-flecked rant about beheadings, I love to regale him with florid stories of the Holy Spanish Inquisition.

Most imaginative torturers evah.

According to my college anthropology professor, the only Universal Human Social Construct holds that All members of the Tribe-on-the-Other-Side-of-the-Hill eat filth and sleep with their sisters (even the girls). Everything else since then is a gloss, or a diversion. Nice to see that being one of the more privileged members of what she considers (not without reason) the best, richest, most highly-developed human society evah!!!1! doesn’t mean Pamela has gotten too good for her r0uts.

“Baby Ganoush” is great.

I’ll propose “Shish Kebaby” in hopes of an honorable mention.

My local neighborhood wacko, in a similar fashion, took the simply horrendous story of the suicide bombers putting children in the car to get past the checkpoint, to orate about how Muslim MOTHERS were horrible, morally bankrupt people to sacrifice their children for their evil jihadist cause – not bothering, of course, to even consider that in Iraq right now criminals are kidnapping children, and that the children were probably not killed by their Muslim parents, but that their Muslim parents were mourning their lost children.

“Shish Kebaby� in hopes of an honorable mention.

That’s good too.

Tater tots? Rugratatouille?

I’ll pay rugratatouille. I think tater tots is cheating.

I think tater tots is cheating.

Kiddies’n’bits?

Shish Kebaby is real good. Rugratatouille is sophisticated. Kiddies & Bits is real clever, just misses the Middle Eastern theme.

According to Stephen O’Shea’s Sea of Faith : In 1097-1098 crusaders killed and roasted and ate he entire population of Ma’arat al-Numan,a town in Syria.The children were considered to be a real delicacy. Perhaps there is a crusader cookbook from those days.

just misses the Middle Eastern theme.
