Dhimmi comics writer David Hine is from Britain

Breitbart put up an article from the AFP about DC's use of a Muslim colleague for the Masked Manhunter, which unsurprisingly, isn't particularly respectable of the conservative movement. But what really raises eyebrows here is where the writer of the propaganda tool, David Hine, comes from:
DC comics did not respond to an AFP request for an interview with David Hine, the writer of the album featuring Nightrunner, and declined to comment on the controversy.

But the British-born author told a US website that he had tried to "come up with the kind of hero I would want to see in a comic book if I were French."
Now, the reasons for his doing this are becoming clearer: Hine hails from that isle of madness the French nicknamed Londonistan, because of how they allowed their country to serve as a hub for terrorist cells. A country overrun with bias, prejudice, and other horrific anti-Americanism and anti-Israelism, and, as Melanie Phillips, one of the few sane voices in the UK says, also suffers from obsession with multiculturalism. Robert Spencer once asked early in his official career if Britain will convert to Islam. One can only wonder if that will end up happening. I'm guessing they still don't have many regrets over their slaughter of Joan of Arc during the 100 Years War either.

I think what's really galling about Mr. Hine's statements is that basically, this is his idea of what a "real" Frenchman should be, or how the French should be thinking, just like there are liberals out there with a pretty ludicrous idea of what a conservative should really be. In any case, it doesn't surprise me that someone like him could pull a stunt like this, and pander to PC-ness and multiculturalism. It does tell how the American comics industry has gone very far out of their way to employ British writers, yet there are so few of other nationalities, whether French, Hungarian, Portuguese, Armenian, Romanian, or even Japanese and Korean, if at all. By today's standards, the use of British writers has gone much too far, as they increasingly allow their political standings to overcome their simpler writing talents. And the comics industry wonders why they're collapsing?

Interestingly enough, Mother Jones, of all sites, has mentioned this, and is actually rather respectable in how they write their own notes. I suppose they're right - Captain Planet is off the hook, because compared to cases of whitewashing violent religions and cults, yes, Capt. Planet is mere peanuts.

Heretofore, the kind of hero the French wanted to see was generally called an "American Soldier." If you don't believe me, then just look at the WWII film footage of French women lovin' on their American liberators.
