Oriana Fallaci Shown Beheaded In A Painting

Sigh...

A disgraceful art exhibit in Milan has illustrated once again the deep affinity between the Left and the forces of the global jihad. In these days of Muslims the world over calling for the deaths of those who have “insulted Islam,” anyone who wants to see Oriana Fallaci beheaded need look no further than the Galleria Luciano Inga-Pin in Milan, which is exhibiting Giuseppe Veneziano’s “American Beauty” from January 19 through March 18. This is a series of paintings designed to highlight the “weakness and perversity of the ‘American way of life.’”


The painting in question is shown at the bottom of this post.

Some of you will remember that Fallaci is currently on trial in Italy for insulting Islam in her writings. Apparently the artist responsible for this painting isn't going to be held to any such standard. Which isn't to say that the artist should be held to that standard, rather that Fallaci should not.

I just don't get why free speech should have to stop short of insulting cultural groups.

Not finding the picture, Rob. Though I have read "The Rage and the Pride". I would recomend it, but don’t know who is carrying it currently.

Should be fixed now.

Sorry about that.  Still working out a couple of bugs in the site template.

I don’t know which is more disturbing, the dripping blood or the fact the artist got her normal angry expression perfectly. You may not agree with most of what she has to say, she does say very well.

The truth is out there! The problem is real! Oriana says right things.
