Ahmed Akkari is a Danish imam spoiling for a fight — in more ways than one.
A few months ago, Akkari went on a tour of the Arab world to stoke passions against the now-famous Mohammed cartoons (see them here) — but the cartoons he showed to rouse the rabble included three additional, particuarly offensive images which he had apparently added himself. One of those images — supposedly showing Mohammed as a pig, and reproduced here — was in reality a picture of Jacques Barrot, a contestant at the annual French Pig-Squealing Championship in Trie-sur-Baise.
How else does imam Akkari violate all rules of fair play? By making secret but now-exposed bomb threats against his political enemies:
A French TV documentary crew secretly filmed Imam Ahmed Akkari threatening to have Naser Khader — a founder of Denmark's Democratic Muslims network, which opposes violent protests over cartoons of the Prophet Mohammad — bombed. ... Police spokesman Flemming Steen Munk said the inquiry would begin as soon as Akkari returned from Bahrain, where he was attending a conference that finished on Thursday. If convicted, Akkari would face a maximum of eight years in prison.
I hope they convict him and lock him up. And that has nothing to do with the fact that, back in 2001, he was sentenced to only forty days of probation for repeatedly kicking an eleven-year-old Danish boy who had allegedly tried to pull Akkari's sister's headscarf off. Maybe some time in the slammer will make him realize there are other ways to interact with fellow human beings than with death threats and outright violence.

Here's my question: If the West is so damn bad, why are so many Muslims eager to come live there?
Let's not forget that many if not most of the European Muslims now screaming for the blood of infidels, originally came there as refugees because their own countries were (and remain) corrupt, diseased, backward, brutal shitholes.
