On this 10th Anniversary, Draw the Prophet Mohammad

The slogan, “Je sui Charlie” or “I am Charlie” became a rallying cry for those in support of the twelve people killed in their offices by Al Qaeda brutes on January 7, 2015. Dr. Yaron Brook, Chairman of the Ayn Rand Institute and the host of the Yaron Brook Show pointed out something simple and profound. It was a question: Why didn’t everyone just display the image of Mohammad? That would’ve had a greater, deeper impact on the psyches of those in support of the cause and would have knocked down antagonists a few pegs as well.

A coincidence occurred when Dr. Brook launched his internet show. It was that very day. To talk about the cornerstone of civilization, free speech, on his first show launched thousands of broadcasts and he continues to hold the mantle for liberty in expressing oneself.

So, what has happened in the years since the attacks? ISIS and Al Qaeda are rebuilding and attempting to wreak more havoc in the places where the populace yearns to protect and promote free speech.

Also in the years since the attack, Bosch Fawstin won an animation contest depicting Mohammad. That definitely drove a wedge in the eyes of the ogres who wish to injure and destroy people who want to write, draw, say, paint, direct and engage in other forms of letting their work speak for itself.

So why didn’t others who had the right initiative but bad judgment when they printed those “Je suis Charlie” t-shirts, newspaper headlines, and painted on their hands and face? It’s not too late to wear Mohammad’s image. Even the Booker Prize-winning author Salman Rushdie sustained injuries including losing his left eye decades after the fatwa had been placed on his head. This further shows the fomenting evil leveled against people to speak their minds without the fear of aggression weighing on them.

All of this occurred while the idea of ideas hangs in the balance. The only way for civilization to continue is to crush our enemies with profound punishment. What this entails is the selfish, full military might of noble nations to safeguard the homeland from puny weaklings who can’t just not take a joke, but hold their set of ideas so sacrosanct that they can’t even see beyond their own absurdities. Let’s see if this happens.

With President-elect Donald J. Trump, no true champion of freedom of speech as he showed in his previous Administration, denouncing media outlets who disagreed with him, he might do something of a reverse, of course.

As we see another wave of the “Je suis Charlie” placards and protest signs ten years later, we should be reminded that in order to really fight them would be to display the image of Mohammad as much as possible.

When it comes to battling organizations with no sense of humor and more importantly, no understanding, application and integration of reason, individualism, and capitalism, you must combat them until they fall to their knees in capitulation. That is the only way to get through to these beasts.

Their inhuman nature and inability to further elevate the world of thought is what must be destroyed. There is no other recourse. While it may have been a gesture to promote the fallen and show solidarity with them, “Je suis Charlie” will forever be an insult to deadly injury.

To eradicate the world of those who oppress the ones who think and want to see a world where rights can be fully protected, the focus should be on knocking out every enemy to written, spoken, photographed, and animated speech.

If there is to be a sane, fully free society, it is up to the countries of the world who prize liberty in expression to eliminate every single offender of the right to display the contents of the mind.

So, in this tenth anniversary let’s display Mohammad and write against Him and speak against Him and animate against Him.

It’s only right.
