Fascist Islamic radicals riot in Lebanon, burn another Danish embassy
As the saying goes, "once is chance, twice is coincidence and three times is enemy action".
BEIRUT, Lebanon - Muslim rage over caricatures of the prophet Muhammad grew increasingly violent Sunday as thousands of rampaging protesters - undaunted by tear gas and water cannons - torched the Danish mission and ransacked a Christian neighborhood. At least one person reportedly died and about 200 were detained, officials said.
Muslim clerics denounced the violence, with some wading into the mobs trying to stop them. Copenhagen ordered Danes to leave the country or stay indoors in the second day of attacks on its diplomatic outposts in the Middle East.
In Beirut, a day after violent protests in neighboring Syria, the crowd broke through a cordon of troops and police that had encircled the embassy. Security forces fired tear gas and loosed their weapons into the air to stop the onslaught.
The protesters, armed with stones and sticks, damaged police and fire vehicles and threw stones at a Maronite Catholic church in the wealthy Ashrafieh area - a Christian neighborhood where the Danish Embassy is located.
Flames and smoke billowed from the 10-story building, which also houses the Austrian Embassy and the residence of Slovakia's consul. Protesters waved green and black Islamic flags from broken windows and tossed papers and filing cabinets outside.

No one should be surprised that the most offensive images are fakes produced by a radical cleric bent on fanning anti-western hatred. (There are claims that the most offensive cartoons are not fakes but were "found on an extremist Christian website in the United States" yet no web site has been provided and the cartoons were presented as a reason to boycott Danish goods, not all western goods.) Gateway Pundit details the fakes and the history of Imam Ahmad Abu Laban who is behind much of the violence and who makes no bones about the fate of the west:
If the extra cartoons were meant to fan the flames, it worked...
...Imam Ahmad Abu Laban: I demand them within their abilities and competence and within the concept of dynamism of liberalism to create to fashion a new set of rules...
Jonathon Hunt: So, you want a new set of rules for the way Western Europe lives?
Imam Ahmad Abu Laban: Yes.
In other words, do you want to be beheaded now or later?
