'Islam in Europe' on 'Pakistan Daily'

My blog has finally reached the mass media. In Pakistan, at least. Pakistan Daily reports about Anti Muslim Islamophobia (*) in Denmark by ripping off my article, which is actually a translation and summary of two Danish news sources.

Islam in Europe:
Denmark: Expel Islam from Europe

Daily Pakistan:
Anti Muslim Islamophobia Expel Islam from Europe

(*) As opposed to pro-Muslim Islamophobia?

Esther, you could take this as a compliment. Muslims throughout history have stolen other peoples works and ideas. Muhammad stole the Koran from Jewish and Christian sources. Muslims have claimed they discovered zero and algebra but these were pagan inventions taken over by islam when they invaded and colonised pagan countries.

It's true. Algebra was a Persian invention and glass was a Byzantine invention. Even if they were Muslim inventions, what did they do with them? Not a damn thing. The West took algrebra and created geometry, trigonometry, calculus, modern physics, astronomy, and every worthwhile invention in the history of time with the exception of some Japanese consumer electronics. I of course lump Israel in with the West here. And all Muslims ever did with glass was put pretty windows on their mosques. We put infinitely prettier stained-glass windows on our churches, then we created the microscope, the telescope, glasses, microbiology, fiber optics, solar power, etc., etc. And I'm convinced that Avicenna was Christian.

They should be ashamed of themselves: they only had to link you to make that article OK.

But of course, you must feel good about this. They have taken you as a source for their article!

I don't hold Pakistan in high regard anyway. Any country that is so poor that it's grateful for Saudi funded madrassas that have been caught training terrorists, and yet continues to encourage it's citizens to breed like rabbits is irrelevant when it's not an irritant.

Pakistan is important because they posses nuclear weapons and the missile systems to deliver them many important places.

I actually do take this as a compliment ;-) I doubt, though, that Muslims are the only ones who copy off this blog without proper credit.
