Surrender? Up yours!

In these days, with the torrents of fatwa's and hailstorms of death threats, not to mention general grievance and self-pity from Muslims as reaction to various "insults" from Western infidels it's interesting to look back in history.
How did our forefathers react to the threat of Islam?

Well, Danish blogger Snaphanen brought my attention to one way of answering Muslim demands of submission.

Back in 1667, the Zaporozhian Cossacks defeated a Turkish army that had been sent in to the south of Russia. In spite of his defeat, the Turkish Sultan, Mehmed IV, sent a letter to the Cossacks, demanding their surrender.

The letter went like this:
As the Sultan; son of Muhammad; brother of the Sun and Moon; grandson and viceroy of God; ruler of the kingdoms of Macedonia, Babylon, Jerusalem, Upper and Lower Egypt; emperor of emperors; sovereign of sovereigns; extraordinary knight, never defeated; steadfast guardian of the tomb of Jesus Christ; trustee chosen by God himself; the hope and comfort of Muslims; confounder and great defender of Christians—I command you, the Zaporozhian Cossacks, to submit to me voluntarily and without any resistance, and to desist from troubling me with your attacks.

So, what were the Zapoes response? Well, first of all, they did not apologize for defeating the Sultan's invading army and thereby insulting the Religion of Peace. Their newspapers did not post editorials and op-ed's and commentaries demanding the resignation of the Government, large exporting companies did not bring full-page hand wringing adds in leading Muslim newspapers explaining how sorry they were for the insult to their customers.

Instead, the Cossacks looked at the rather pompous letter and decided to tell the Sultan to get stuffed.

A reply was written:
Zaporozhian Cossacks to the Turkish Sultan!

O sultan, turkish devil and damned devil's kith and kin, secretary to Lucifer himself. What the devil kind of knight are you, that can't slay a hedgehog with his naked arse? The devil shits, and your army eats. You will not, you son of a bitch, make subjects of Christian sons; we've no fear of your army, by land and by sea we will battle with thee, fuck your mother.

You Babylonian scullion, Macedonian wheelwright, brewer of Jerusalem, goat-fucker of Alexandria, swineherd of Greater and Lesser Egypt, Armenian pig, Podolian thief, catamite of Tartary, hangman of Kamyanets, and fool of all the world and underworld, an idiot before God, grandson of the Serpent, and the crick in our dick. Pig's snout, mare's arse, slaughterhouse cur, unchristened brow, screw your own mother!

So the Zaporozhians declare, you lowlife. You won't even be herding Christian pigs. Now we'll conclude, for we don't know the date and don't own a calendar; the moon's in the sky, the year with the Lord, the day's the same over here as it is over there; for this kiss our arse!

Quite an appropriate response if You ask me. Should be nailed on the walls in every Western Foreign Ministry.

Screw all this PC stuff and all this Sensitivity. Muslims are offended by seeing their Prophet in a drawing? So what else is new. Next case!

Med anledning av kommentar av Corto igår 2007/09/19 kl. 22:21:43

Att Corto är kort om huvudet framgår med all önskvärd tydlighet av hans uppmaningar till Lars Vilks att visa medmänsklighet och respekt etc. Ej heller skall det - som han frammanar, byggas några broar från vårt håll till muslimer, islamiter, mohammedaner eller imamer. Vi har blivit invaderade av dessa annorlunda tänkande främlingar därför att makten i landet Sverige innehafts och innehas av fosterlandsförädare, som i sin totala enfald kräver vår, det svenska folkets, anpassning till intränglingarna och vår försörjning av dem dessutom. Broarna får byggas av intränglingarna och det kan göras genom att dom bli ex-muslimer. Det finns ingen plats i Sverige för Mohammed, som hädanefter i sann rondellhundsanda lämpligen benämnes Mahound - ett gammalt och traditionsfyllt namn. Mahound dyrkas på en landareal som kanske är mer än tusen gånger större än Sveriges yta - flytta dit alla ni som inte kan avstå från att slava under Mahound, som inte kan avstå från de 72 permanentkåta jungfrurna och all annan förcivilisatorisk idioti - där behöver ni inte trängas som i Rinkeby, Södertälje och Rosengård. Vi svenskar är redan alldeles förbannat kränkta av era parasitfasoner - vi svenskar vill inte leva sida vid sida i ömsesidig respekt med er. Tro inte vad statsministern påstår, han ljuger som en häst travar. Vi har ingen som helst respekt för er, så länge ni underkastar er Mahound och hans sinnessjuka påbud.

I really appreciate the nuance and diplomatic restraint shown in the response of the Cossacks. Their multicultural sensitivity should serve as an example for all. We definetly need more of the same in these times.

@ ΛΕΟΝΙΔΑΣ,

You're most welcome. It is I who are honored!

It's nice to hear a dissident Swedish voice. Sooner or later, the dikes of PC and Newspeak in Sweden will overflow and crack. Hang in there!

I would like to know how Ukrainians turned out to be forfathers of Danes.
Could you please tell me?
10x in advance.

Mikael said...

I would like to know how Ukrainians turned out to be forfathers of Danes.

Here's one example: Just after WW2 my mother married a Canadian of Ukrainian descent who had fought his way from Normandy to Denmark. They had a daughter, my half-sister. So that's one Dane with Ukrainian forefathers for you.

Anything else?

I was schooled by this message!
I had to look up the definition of the word 'catamite'.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catamite
If I am insulted by a jihadist enabler, I will gleefully respond, "Silence, catamite of Tartary!", and know I am in excellent historic company.

We need to bring back the crusades. If you treat these people well, they start with their demands. Let them feel some cold or hot steel and they'll just be happy to be alive in their own lands never mind squeeling about their false prophet.
The day will come where we Europeans have to cleanse our countries of them. That day is not too far off now.

As a Latina from NYC, I say:

"Bravo! Bravo!"

and

"Viva Libertad"


It's time we become wariors for freedom again. And this time, like the fierce women warriors of the Cossacks - there were women Chiftains - we - civilian women, will be shoulder to shoulder with our men!

As soon as I saw "Zaporozhian" I thought Taras Bulba!

The Danes,well at least the Vikings as a group founded Kiev,sailed the Don and Volga rivers,and even the Russians were named the Russ,after the Vikings,it is a shame that they exported most of their best Y and left all those whimppy pussies that make up the Viking male today.

So we need to admire the rude example of the barbaric anti-semitic Zaporozhian Cossacks, who murdered tens of thousands of Jews, as well as killing thousands of Polish citizens?

Errata.

Russia did not exist in 1667. In those days it was known as Moskovia.

Russia as the name was adopted later on in 18th century by tsar Peter after he moved the capital from Moscow to St Petersburg. Tsarina Catherine finally annexed Cossack land to her empire in late 18th.

Until that, Cossacks (literary meaning "free men") lived in the confederation known as Ukraine, spoke Ukrainian and were Ukrainians culturally, politically, spiritually.

Too bad the entire essay I wrote was thrown away. Sometimes I hate the internet. But still, there are 20 somethings in Canada who are memorizing the response. They love the rude words from 1667. If we keep fighting we will win. Our parents had to hide radios under their pillows. We can do it. In a litttle town in Canada, our kids were being quiet studying, when a rude and loud group came into their libray with music. I asked if it was Friday, yes, I said they were doing their prayers. She was so angry. 200 kids in the library quitey, but Muslim doing loud prayer.A child of the Sixties I aked did you compain to the Librarian . No she said we are all afraid they will blow us up. Isn't that nice? Uni kids are afraid to complain about anything, especially if it is Muslims.

Yazıyoruz yazıyoruz ama sonuç hep hüsran nerdeyse adaptasyon sitemiz patladı -60 yedi. sakizimu ise adsense tarafından banlandı. Kadın elbise modelleri dedik ne güzel 1000 + hit yapıyordu o da son zamanlarda 500'lere doğru kaydı, mobilya dekorasyon sitesi açtık tam tuttu, parayı kırdık kırıcağız dedik...

Yine adsense banı aldı gitti patladı site... Fikirli - fikirsiz iş yapıyoruz heralde ...

Google adsense hakkında bilgi topluyoruz ve sayfa to oranlarımız %5'lere dayandı . İyi sonuçlar aldık . Tema işe yaradı .
Kpss 2012 sitemiz çok iyi gidiyor. Bu site iyi değil aslında 100 hit çakıldı. Sabite bağlandı.  kpss 2012 sınav tarihi
de yanlış olabilir (korkmayın)


tarihin arka odası sitemizi n'oldu ben de bilmiyorum takip etmiyoruz, zaten bir beklentimizde yok o siteden.

Son olarak koxp sitesinden birşey beklemiyorum. ne hali varsa görsün. 0.01 cent tık başı veriyor.
