Islam apologist Andy Khouri blabbers on

A week or so ago, I spoke about a blogger for AOL's Comics Alliance and Moviefone named Andy Khouri, who went out of his way to call right-wing bloggers "racists" because he despised that they'd attack a religion, suggesting he's unable to distinguish between the two subjects. He's given an interview to a LA based site called Lalawag where he keeps on with his shroud of the deeper details involved, and makes himself sound all the more laughable in the process. He boasts:
It’s hugely gratifying to see our work recognized in the broader media, which is really the secret to ComicsAlliance’s success.
In other words, if they didn't take notice, the site would be nothing? It's a big nothing anyway, as I've concluded of recent.
In the case of “The Daily Show”, the story there is that some right-wing racist/Islamophobic bloggers had a complete meltdown when Bruce Wayne — who is not real, by the way, he’s a comic book character — recently selected a French Muslim of Arab descent to be his official Batman of Paris.
Of course Batman's alter ego is fictional, and so is the French-Algerian Muslim he recruited, but the religion the latter goes by is real. And sadly, so too appears to be the hate Andy KhouriDhimmi's got for the conservative movement:
These ghouls suggested the story — which, again, is a fictional superhero tale in a comic book — was offensive to “real Frenchmen” and that it was impossible for a Muslim to be anything but a terrorist, much less a costumed superhero in the mode of Batman. I wrote an amusing take-down piece spotlighting their horribleness and advocated for this character, a parkour expert called Nightrunner, whose origin is based in the racial/economic/religious tension that we’ve seen in France over the last several years.
Gee, he could at least have said that there may be moderate Muslims, but there is no moderate Islam. But he didn't, so I guess I'll have to point out, once again, some of the most gruesome verses in the Koran/Hadith, including:
"Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, (even if they are) of the People of the Book, until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued." -- Sura 9:29
And even:
"Therefore, when ye meet the Unbelievers (in fight), smite at their necks; At length, when ye have thoroughly subdued them, bind a bond firmly (on them): thereafter (is the time for) either generosity or ransom: Until the war lays down its burdens..." -- Sura 47:4
Mr. Khouri really needs to stop and think about what he's concealing even from himself. What the Koran advocates is not exactly amusing, now is it? And not only is there a very probable chance that some French people will find this superficial presentation offensive, what about victims of jihad rape, including the 9-year-old Ayesha, Muhammed's child bride? Did it ever occur to young Mr. Khouri that it could be offensive to them too?

The way he cites "racial/economic/religious tension" is ambiguous, not unlike how some moonbat propagandists can allude to the "Israeli/palestinian conflict", and he's completely oblivious to the question of whether vandalizing and committing murder against infidels is any way to handle one's problems.

In the latter half of the interview, Andy KhouriDhimmi goes on to say:
If I’d written that Muslim Batman piece as a straight news source, it would be a litany of publishing facts like dates, issue numbers and story summaries along with select quotes from the racists in question, with the readers left to make of it what they will. In the blogging context, I was able to take all that information and present it to the readers and make the authoritative, passionate and even humorous argument that those people were in fact racists deserving of scorn and mockery[...]
Look who's talking! The same man whom I discovered wrote a vulgar post on his own site a couple years back implying that Jews are swindlers! Of course, he wouldn't ever publish any quotes, select or otherwise, from the Koran for people to form an opinion of, and as a result, I'm afraid any disagreements he'd have would be all the more dishonest and one-sided. "Authoritative"? I'm afraid he'd be little more than a superiorist. And the Religion of Peace isn't something funny, nor is neck-smiting or adult Muhammed's marriage to 9-year-old Ayesha. And if there's anyone deserving of scorn and mockery...well, I'm sure he's got a mirror at home.

As of this writing, he's still as devoted as hilariously as ever to the comic book creations of the Jewish community, all the more reason he could use a bit of scoffing. Because if he's going to be an apologist for the Religion of Peace and take an anti-Israel stand as he signaled a few years back, then to be a fan of the Jewish community's showbiz contributions only makes him sound sillier.
