Per Ace (http://ace.mu.nu/archives/338874.php): You know how we always say, "Gee, wish those Naked Feminist Protesters would protest one day against hardcore Islam"?
Well... they have. A Tunisian activist posted pictures of her naked body with the words "My body is owned by myself and is not anyone else's honor," and was arrested. (I think that part about "honor" refers to the idea in Islam that women must be covered up to protect the honor of Islam and Islamic men. But I don't know.)
So the Feminist group "Femen" is protesting that, nakedly, and are protesting Islam generally. They burned a Salfist flag, for example. Corrected: I said they were Ukranian, because one picture was captioned as being from Ukraine; in fact they are Europe-wide, and demonstrated in front of the Tunisian embassy in many European capitals.
Content Warning for nudity, profanity, and, worst of all, the hate crime of anti-Islamist blasphemy.

Oh no. I have mixed emotions. Surprise surprise to anyone who knows me.
But this protest SPEAKS to me.

Hey, Buddy, My EYES are up HERE!!
I just want to apologize right up front and ask anyone who is offended to forgive my first thoughts on this.

Well, you have to give them credit for actually targeting Islam for a change. Usually those transgressive lefty types stick to the comfortable targets, i.e. Western Christianity, since that hasn't been dangerous in ages.
I did notice that most of them had shaved arm pits. What's up with that, are they submitting to the patriarchy's cliches of feminine beauty?
On a more serious note, I got tired of reading picture captions saying in front of this or that mosque in this or that European capitol. That there are mosques in European capitols is an outrage in itself. They do not belong on Western soil and I am in favor of getting rid of them by whatever means necessary, up to and including the full Charles Martel or Vlad Tepes approach.

Yes!
But the Europussies will just vacillate, prevaricate and ultimately be swallowed whole by the 7th Century Savages.

Or do like Henry VIII did with the Dissolution of the Monastaries in Ireland.
/Why are there so many church ruins in Ireland? The English Tourism Board.

You are very thorough AP.

The message was important enough to carefully scrutinize.
There were a couple mighty fine slogans there

English I can read, the rest not so much. What I don't get is what is with the duct tape? That's NOT what that is for!

Since I am at work and I do not want any of my customers accusing me of watching porn, I scanned the pics quickly.
