'South Park' Creators Could Face Retribution for Depicting Muhammad, Website Warns
By Joshua Rhett Miller
- FOXNews.com
A radical Islamic website is warning the creators of "South Park" that they could face violent retribution for depicting the Prophet Muhammad in a bear suit during an episode broadcast on Comedy Central last week.
RevolutionMuslim.com posted a warning following the 200th episode of Trey Parker and Matt Stone's "South Park," which included a caricature of the Prophet Muhammad disguised in a bear suit.
A radical Islamic website is warning the creators of "South Park" that they could face violent retribution for depicting the Prophet Muhammad in a bear suit during an episode broadcast on Comedy Central last week.
RevolutionMuslim.com posted the warning following the 200th episode of Trey Parker and Matt Stone's "South Park," which included a caricature of the Prophet Muhammad disguised in a bear suit. The Web posting also included a graphic photo of Theo van Gogh, a Dutch filmmaker who was murdered in 2004 after making a documentary on violence against Muslim women.
"We have to warn Matt and Trey that what they are doing is stupid and they will probably wind up like Theo Van Gogh for airing this show," the posting reads. "This is not a threat, but a warning of the reality of what will likely happen to them."
Reaching by phone early Tuesday, Abu Talhah al Amrikee, the author of the post, said he wrote the entry to "raise awareness." He said the grisly photograph of van Gogh was meant to "explain the severity" of what Parker and Stone did by mocking Muhammad.
"It's not a threat, but it really is a likely outcome," al Amrikee said, referring to the possibility that Parker and Stone could be murdered for mocking Muhammad. "They're going to be basically on a list in the back of the minds of a large number of Muslims. It's just the reality."
Al Amrikee said the website is considering a protest against the "disgusting" show, which also depicted the Prophet Muhammad in an episode on July 4, 2001.
"This is not a small thing," he said. "We should do whatever we can to make sure it does not happen again."
The posting on RevolutionMuslim.com also includes audio of a sermon by Anwar al-Awlaki -- a radical U.S.-born preacher now believed to be hiding in Yemen -- who discusses assassinating individuals who defame the Prophet Muhammad. It also included a link to a 2009 story in the Huffington Post that gave details of Stone and Parker's mansion in Colorado.
A Comedy Central spokesman told FoxNews.com that the network has no comment on the posting.

South Park makes fun of Jesus all the time, but do you see Christians screaming bloody murder and making death-threats? Cartman is clearly Anti-Semitic, so should we also be worried that an army of enraged Jews are going to be rolling up to Matt and Trey's studio any day now? I really don't understand why these Muslim radicals always have to jump straight into violence every time someone makes a crack at Allah or Muhammed. Why can't they just settle for sending angry letters and calling them devilspawn? Said plan seems to work for other religions. I say they need to pull the stick out of their collective arse and take it as the innocent locker-room humour that it is.

They used to get a significant amount of press for threats and hatemail from christian sources, but that cooled over the years. More recently they got the same attention from their scientology episodes.

No kidding. I find it completely comical that Islamic extremists criticize the world for not respecting their religion, and Christians for taking over their lands, when their policy on respecting other religions is "Islam is the only true religion, all others are a lie", and they refuse to realize or accept any state that is not ruled by an Islamic Theocracy. I've heard some crazy double-standard ideals before, but these extremists take the cake. I have yet to come across another group that contradicts itself even a tenth as much. I'm not even religious and groups like these still offend me by their behavior and mindset.

I suppose that's true. But to this degree? Not so much, I think. ShumaGorath wrote:I think you missed the part where you said the word radicals. By definition they aren't going to react to things the old lady way.
Unlike a lot of folks these days, I do see the difference between a Muslim and a Muslim Extremist. Doesn't justify such infantile behavior from these groups though. I would've hoped that by the time a person of faith has reached the age to legally be considered an adult, they would have developed half a brain. I find myself extremely let down by things like this, however.

Oh? I would think that any racial supremacist movement would be similarly balking to you. Violent extremism isn't the sole property of islam, and there have been plenty of christians, jews, communists, and good white folk that have done the same. Acting like radical islamists have taken it to a new extreme just shows a bit of a lack of perspective.

The difference is, I don't believe we should deny them their right to exist, which is more than I can say in regards to their opinions on other religious or ethnic groups. Of course violent extremism has existed throughout history. The Crusades, the Irish civil war, the Holocaust, Soviet persecution of the Ukranian Orthodox Church, the KKK, so on and so forth. In medieval times, when people didn't have the education they do now, when State and Religion were one and the same for most of the world, this wasn't out-of-place. Extremism was a fact of life for most of Europe and the Middle-East. That doesn't make it alright, but that's how it was. We don't live in the middle ages though. Such behavior has no place anymore. There -are- extremist groups for a wide spectrum of ideals and religions, true. But none seem as easily offended as Islamic extremists. It seems like every little joke or jab against them results in a call for blood. And there's a long list of things that'll cause that call, it would seem. One of them being an adult cartoon that really is impossible to take seriously.

Sadly I do, and I consider it very unfortunate that the circumstances in which they live mean they likely won't see any other point of view aside from "Kill the Infidels!", or understand that there are better ways to resolve things. But there's also the fact that several also come from educated states, which are often the groups getting offended by things like this. The group in question is one of these.

Oh and one more thing.
People Dakka:
Wake the feth up.
That ONE site, with that ONE comment, doesn't mean that that's what Islam is about. If Islam was hateful, bigoted and violent, I would drop it in a heartbeat. But Islam is tolerant, loving and peaceful religion. So don't think for a second that comment is what all muslims think.

They showed Muhammed wearing a bear suit. Somehow that that gives this extremist group justification to make threats of torture, mutilation, and murder. If you're reading this thread, which I'm assuming you are, many of us are not criticizing Muslims in general. Only the extremists that give the Islamic religion a bad name. Most (Not all) folks have the mental capacity to differentiate between the two.

But what was the intention of the artist? From what I've heard, the artist drew those cartoons because he DID hate muslims, and he DID think muhammad was terrorist. i've nothing against jokes, but it's when the jokes aren't just jokes, but malicious, and that's when I get offended, when people are trying to insult you, because they hate you.

Saw the episode and it's pretty funny how these guys are reacting. The whole episode basically is how to depict Mohamed without offending Muslims. Of course they go to the silly lengths to do it. First putting him in a U-haul van. Then the mascot suit since it seems to fit all criteria. None of Mohamed is showing and the suit is padded and what not so even his shape is not shown.
There's also a shot of Buddha snorting coke, no Buddhist outrage yet.
What this reaction basically shows is some Muslims are tight-arsed idiots with no sense of humor and seem to look forward to reasons to be "outraged!".

No one mentioned Jesus.
The only comment directed at Glen Beck dealt with the fact that he profits from the enhancement of anger, which is indisputably true.

No one did any such thing.
A statement was made which indicated that violent extremism is not the sole purview of Islam, and that statement included a reference (among others) to violent, Christian groups. But that does not indicate that all Christians are comparable to militant Islamists, which seems to be the conclusion that you're drawing.
Similarly, the comment about Beck was not a comparison to the act making a death threat, but a comment on the psychological reasons that people watch TV.

Other than the fact that they believe there is a mandate from God against it? I would think thats enough.
On a side note, this thread is getting really offensive in itself. While I am not a Muslim I one of my best friends is, so while voicing your opinion on the subject is fine, calling all all Muslims "Stupid as feth" is not. Use some common courtesy people! This is why there is a debate on banning the religion based off-topic threads.

While it is a small minority of Muslims that would act upon their outrage, I would say the vast majority are offended.

Do you think someone keeping Kosher would be happy if you fed them pork? How is displaying a picture of the Prophet any different? Its a direct violation of the word of god.

Not so vague threats that you are going to stab cartoonists to death in the streets should be universally responded to with derision, distate, and maybe some nice hacker attacks (or JDAM if in the correct jurisdiction). This group's (and I am not saying Muslims I am saying these nutjobs) right to be offended ends at my nose. In the rest of the civilized world a proper response is using your own freedom of speech.

Fixed it for you, because your example really wasn't comparable.
There is a huge difference between trying to force someone into violating their own religious beliefs, and violating their religious beliefs yourself. Islam says you shouldn't depict the prophet Muhammad. Hinduism says you shouldn't eat beef. Catholicism says you shouldn't have sex out of wedlock. None of this gives the religious the right to declare that others cannot do these things, no matter how strongly they believe that it's a "mandate from God" that they don't.

Fixed it for you, because your example really wasn't comparable.
There is a huge difference between trying to force someone into violating their own religious beliefs, and violating their religious beliefs yourself. Islam says you shouldn't depict the prophet Muhammad. Hinduism says you shouldn't eat beef. Catholicism says you shouldn't have sex out of wedlock. None of this gives the religious the right to declare that others cannot do these things, no matter how strongly they believe that it's a "mandate from God" that they don't.
Correct, it's hard to find a comparable example that the average reader would be familiar with. The real difference is that Islam does have rules on how society should act, since its traditions were written after the creation of Islamic states. I suppose its equivalent to killing a cow around a Hindu while they are not doing the act themselves they are witnessing it, and more than likely having strong feelings against it.

And the prohibition of depictions of the prophet (and God) comes, primarily, from the Hadith, not the Koran. Therefore the prohibition is not necessarily a derivation of the Word of God, though many Muslims may believe that.

Of course they go to the silly lengths to do it. First putting him in a U-haul van. Then the mascot suit since it seems to fit all criteria. None of Mohamed is showing and the suit is padded and what not so even his shape is not shown.
So what you are saying here is that you saw the episode, and yet still don't understand that the episode is about making fun of certain religious rules?
I see them making fun of a group that demands the entire world adhere to their religious interpretation and having a fit when it doesn't happen. This is the response of a child when someone makes fun of them, not the response of adults. Southpark set these guys up and they fell for it hard. That is the true comedy of a show that's not really that good.
There's also a shot of Buddha snorting coke, no Buddhist outrage yet.
That has got to be the most idiotic thing I have seen in a long time... Congratulations
What? That other religions can stand having their Gods/Prophets mocked and that this one fringe group makes theirs look stupid by their childish outbursts over a stupid cartoon?
What this reaction basically shows is some Muslims are tight-arsed idiots with no sense of humor and seem to look forward to reasons to be "outraged!".
Not all, not even a majority, but the vocal fringe.
Do you even know anyone that is Muslim? That is one of the most offensive responses yet. While it is a small minority of Muslims that would act upon their outrage, I would say the vast majority are offended. I assume that you yourself are not religious and therefor have no idea how strong feelings are regarding mandates from god.
I know people of all religions, Muslims included and besides one jerk "Nation of Islam" fella I knew in the Army I found Muslims to be great people. These same Muslims I know would agree that the statements of these radicals damage the image of Muslims everywhere.
Whether I'm religious or not means nothing and has no bearing. Other Muslims can look at this, sigh and carry on with their lives. Other Muslims can laugh at it. Then there are the fringe groups (and they exist in every religion/political party) that want to create violence over something stupid.
Do you think someone keeping Kosher would be happy if you fed them pork? How is displaying a picture of the Prophet any different? Its a direct violation of the word of god.
If I did, certainly. As others have sad. If I ate pork in front of them and they got upset, that's their problem and not mine.
Again, it's their religion and they have absolutely no right in the world to demand that anyone outside of their religion adhere to their beliefs and threatening violence shows them as thugs.
Thank you for your oh so level headed response.

Incorrect. Zen buddhism is far from the entirety of buddhism and the removal of negative emotions and distorted thoughts are the merest fraction of it's purpose. Try again. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buddhism The conflicts in thailand and burma alone prove that wrong, let alone significant historical eras of violence in practicing buddhist cultures such as China japan or india. Buddhists can be just as violent as any other religious practitioner, violence is an inherent aspect of human nature and is not something religion can simply do away with.

http://www.sangam.org/articles/view/?id=118
The Buddha's sermons seem, however, to condemn all violence, toward oneself and toward others. Suicide, it is true, is not formally forbidden. And Buddhism remains ambivalent toward the interiorized form of violence that is asceticism. Well-ordered violence begins with oneself. Chinese monks, to show their determination, would sometimes mutilate themselves—cutting off or burning one or more of their fingers. In extreme cases self-denial could extend to self-immolation by fire. We recall the horrific image of the Vietnamese monk who, at the start of the U.S. military intervention in his country, chose this death as a sign of protest.
You can call what the monk is doing in this image whatever you want, but for me, this is far and beyond outrage, while being on the same scale of reaction.
I guess it is fun to believe whatever you want, really...
Something else that is interesting, is the fact that Buddhism has 'a' hell. Looks pretty cool if you ask me.

That's one of 'em. There were many cartoons by many artists, the famous 12 created on the request of the newspaper that published them. One, containing arabic writing, actually attacked the newspaper itself - overlooked by the non-arabic-reading editor.
When the delegation of imams discussed the offensive imagery in the middle east, they actually included three more cartoons that were far more offensive, but completely unconnected to the publications in the newspaper other than the subject matter. The most offensive one was probably of a dog mounting a praying Muslim, with the caption saying something along the lines of 'this is why they pray'.
The Danish imams who provided these three additional images were obviously trying to stir up controversy, unless of course they were misled themselves.
There are plenty of examples of Mohammed in full view in period artwork, however. Many left the face blank but drew the figure, but this is artwork from 1307.

As for Buddhism, it is like most other major religions in that there are many different forms and not everyone the belongs to it thinks the same of it. Much like Westboro Baptist and Quakers are dissimilar but are both Christian groups.

Like Shuma said, why don't you try -reading- a thread before posting comments in it? No one was standing up for extremist behavior at any point. Rather, people were defending the Muslim faith, and pointing out that it's a very ignorant person that makes the mistake of assuming "Muslim" and "Extremist" are one and the same. Such assumptions could also be called "backwards, savage and wrong."

Is it really news to anyone that wingnut Muslims threaten violence over minor offences? They're out there, they're crazy, and we all know about it. Like talking about every single thing the Westboro Baptist church does, at some point I suspect the only effect is to tar the majority with the craziness of the minority. We shouldn't ignore the crazy fringe, but we should keep it in perspective.
Also, it doesn't make much sense to me that Muhammed can't be depicted, but it doesn't have to make sense to me, taboos don't have to make much sense, and certainly not to anyone outside of that group. That isn't to say depictions of Muhammed should be banned, but it stands to reason that someone should exercise restraint and decent judgement. The image with the bomb turban would be a pretty good example of completely and utterly failing to do that.
I haven't seen the South Park episode in question, but I liked the last episode they used to address the topic, with Family Guy and the manatees. I figure this will probably be worthwhile as well.

Getting rid of religion and doing much better things like race based tribal violence, ethnic cleansing (Hitler!), communist national reformation (cultural revolution!), and forced industrial-economic revitalization (soviet collective industry!) is a great idea. Clearly religion (rather than what caused napoleons invasions, alexander the greats conquests, Ghengis Khans empire building, or the ethnic cleansing of north and south america by european colonists!) is the issue here. It has absolutely nothing to do with inherent human indecency towards other humans when under the guise of movements or great changes for progress.
