Jacques Marrot ~ Renaissance Man
Jacques Marrot Squealing
Once just an unknown man with a proclivity to imitate pigs Jacques Marrot, a simple man, has become the face of the international tensions surrounding the moslem cartoon riots. OK, probably an overstatement, but the uncovering of his photo by NeanderNews as the bogus source of Islamic proganda has received much international coverage. The following is just a small sample:
Jyllands-Posten - Where it all started.
Ekstra Bladet - The Danish tabloid hot on the tail of the Imams.
DR - Denmark’s Public TV & Radio.
BBC - The Beeb backpedaling, acknowledging it’s role in spreading the false propaganda.
Het Laatste Nieuws and The Brussels Journal - Belgium
Aftenposten, Dag Bladet and VG Nett - Norway
Buitenlan - Holland
Le Temps - France
Spiegel, Stern and Handelsblatt - Germany
Wiener Zeitung - Austria
Herald Sun - Creds to the blogosphere from Down Under.
CBC - Even the Canucks in on the action.
Washington Post - WaPo reporting AP’s going on the offensive against the Imams.
Jewish World Review - Syndicated columnist Kathleen Parker’s article.
World Net Daily - Good props to NeanderNews from WND.
Finally, here’s a couple of video excerpts from Danish TV DR (hat tip: Michelle Malkin) - Video 1, Video 2 and Video 3.
One of the Danish TV’s network reporters aggressively interviewed Danish imam Ahmed Akkari, who was part of the traveling delegation that spread this pamphlet. There was a heated exchange after the anchor showed the video of one of Akkari’s fellow imams displaying the pig snout photo during a trip to Cairo and describing it, in English, as “one of the worst pictures ever” and the imam claims that the hand positions of the piq-squealing contestant were intended to mock a praying Muslim.
The Danish TV broadcaster refused to let the pig snout swindle go unchallenged and aggressively engaged Danish imam Ahmed Akkari. Below is a transcript that Michelle Malkin obtained from that exchange:
Interviewer: We have pictures of your predecessor as spokesman from ‘Islamisk Trossamfund’ who sits in Cairo and shows that the picture has been shown there and says that is one of the worst pictures. Should we see what he is saying in this recording from Cairo?
Unidentified imam with dossier and pig photo: This is one of the worst picture that anyone ever imagine. They imagine our prophets [unintelligible]. [Pointing to the pig-squealing contestant]. The hands of a man praying and the face of a pig.
Interviewer: Recordings from Cairo when you were on tour. There was not much to get wrong: “It is one of the worst pictures.” But that wasn’t published in Denmark.
Akkari: That picture was not part of the drawings in JP, and everybody knows that.
Interviewer: That is not what I am asking.
Akkari: That is what it is about.
Interviewer: That picture was present in the tour in the Middle East, in the folder that your predecessor is holding and is shown to your co-religionists.
Akkari: I think we should try and ask in Cairo and in the Middle East generally if it that is the picture all the people are mad about. And if that is the case I will give in. If it is not then, and I don’t think it is, then we must realize that this is about the 12 drawings in [the Jyllands-Posten] and not about a stunt like that.
Interviewer: Why did you include that picture in your folder?
Akkari: To show what provocations can come from writing articles to [the Jyllands-Posten] . It was some answers to some provocations that had come.
Interviewer: But the picture that you showed your co-religionists has not been publicised in Denmark.
Akkari: Nobody said that.
Interviewer: Why should it be shown as you say and it is said by your predecessor.
Akkari: It was shown after a number of papers and what it is about right now, is to see the folder in its entirety. To extract a few seconds from a conversation can easily be manipulated, it can easily be misinterpreted. And if the statements of Danish experts hasn’t been good enough to let us understand that this is not a case of manipulation, then I can understand that somebody tries to shift the blame to us to free themselves of the responsibility.
Interviewer: Ahmed Akkari, you are talking in circles, I am sorry to be so blunt. That picture was present in the Middle East and presented as some of the worst shown in Denmark, but it is from a pig-party in France. Is that the truth or is it a lie, what you have shown in the Middle East?
Akkari: The questions you ask now and the way it is presented is not the truth either because it is taken out of context and you don’t let people understand what the complete case is about. Because what it is about is to show what anonymous pictures Muslims have received as a provocation. I don’t think that anybody has claimed that it is something JP has publicized and you are welcome to travel about and ask.
Interviewer: What do you want to tell Danish people who thinks: That man is sitting and lying.
Akkari: I think they should hold back because we haven’t intended to lie in any way. We hope that everybody can take responsibility. If it is shown that there is something wrong, we are willing to correct that misinformation, if it is that which has released all this anger. Let us try to investigate this together, we won’t refuse to try to investigate what this case is about, and if it is that which has released the angers, I am going on live TV in a moment and explain that. Let’s hope we can do it together.
Interviewer: That was the chairman of Islamisk Trossamfund.
It’s been quite a week. NeanderMan needs to lie down now……

I heard that the origanal 12 cartoons (or some of them), were printed in egyptian papers in october, but the public didn’t respond to them at the time. I’t apparently took a handfull danish imans to stir it all up. Anyone up for a little investigative work??

[…] What prominent muslim figure, who was very critical of his government and responsible for much rioting, got his butt saved by said government via evacuation from war torn Lebanon? Why that would be Ahmed Akkari, the infamous Danish Imam, who was amongst those evacuated from Lebanon this past week. […]
