The Difference Between Fanatical Idiocy And Rationality ...

... is that we don't ululate and demand a World Court trial whenever people do pointless crap like this (via Gateway Pundit and Michelle Malkin):

However, we might prosecute the three or four adults who forced a young boy to display his genitalia for the delight of the sickos in the crowd in this photograph. Makes one wonder, doesn't it? Why didn't one of the grown men drain the lizard instead? (Or why didn't the men encourage one of the women to drop trou?)

I did like this next photograph, which prompted one of Gateway Pundit's commenters to ask if the Indian Muslims thought Allah suffered from senility:

Does Allah need a reminder? Do the Muslims in Mumbai think it slipped Allah's mind?

I hope Newsweek is covering this event. After all, they did help stage it. Perhaps, as Michelle Malkin suggests, they can even use that first picture as a cover photo for their next issue. I would guess that Isikoff has been assigned to a different beat for the foreseeable future.
