Extremist Pastries?

The French Fry became the Freedom Fry.
Will the Danish become the Dervish?
Read Gateway Pundit's story that describes how the "Mullacracy" got punked. Here's a quick summary of what happened, in chronological order:

Feb 3, 2006 - Anger continues to spread throughout the Muslim world over the September 2005 "Danish cartoons" that appeared in the Jyllands-Posten newspaper in Denmark. Go to this link to read about it from the Canadian Television website. Pay close attention to the photo of the guy holding the "NO FOR DANISH" banner. Bad grammar, but we get the point.

(Date unknown) - Earlier this year BerryBurger.com posts a satirical response to the Muslim response. James Love posts edited versions of various photographs to show Muslims burning Danish pastries! One of the photos is the one shown on the Canadian Television site. A little Photoshop work transforms the "NO FOR DANISH" pic into an anti-pastry message. BerryBurger also suggests the pastry "will now be called the 'Dervish' after the sufi whirling dervishes of Middle Eastern fame..."

Oct 8, 2006 - The über-humorless Islamic Republic News Agency (Iranian news outlet) website posts this story about the outrage felt by Iranians on the anniversary of the publication of the Danish cartoons. The Danish People's Party released new "blasphemous" videos that once again insult the Islamic world. The great part is that they stole a photo from BerryBurger, showing the "NO FOR DANISH" banner with the pastry on it for the serious news story! Is their webmullah a total idiot, or did Ashton Kutcher hack into the IRNA website?

It didn't take long for Gateway Pundit and Michelle Malkin to pounce on this. The Humble Patriot decided to get in on the fun as well. Why should those heavy-hitters of the blogosphere have all the fun?
