Ann Coulter: "Isn't it great to see Muslims celebrating something other
than the slaughter of Americans?"
After lauding the elections in Iraq as "one of the grandest events in the
history of the world" in her February 3 nationally syndicated
<http://mediamatters.org/rd?http://www.townhall.com/columnists/anncoulter/ac20050203.shtml>column,
right-wing pundit Ann Coulter cited reports of Iraqis celebrating in the
streets on election day and added parenthetically: "Isn't it great to see
Muslims celebrating something other than the slaughter of Americans?"
Coulter's comment came after she quoted Senator John Kerry from his January
30 appearance on NBC's Meet the Press, in which he said, "No one in the
United States should try to overhype this election." Coulter wrote:
"Apparently, word didn't get out to the Iraqis, who were dancing and
singing in the streets. (Isn't it great to see Muslims celebrating
something other than the slaughter of Americans?)"
Coulter's February 3 comment is the latest in a string of anti-Muslim
remarks. For example:
* From the <http://mediamatters.org/items/itembody/200410050004>October
4, 2004, edition of FOX News Channel's Hannity and Colmes:
ALAN COLMES (co-host): Would you like to convert these people [Muslims]
all to Christianity? COULTER: The ones that we haven't killed, yes.
COLMES: So no one should be Muslim. They should all be Christian?
COULTER: That would be a good start, yes.
* From Coulter's April 28, 2004, nationally syndicated
<http://mediamatters.org/rd?http://www.humaneventsonline.com/article.php?id=3748>column:
Like many of you, I carefully reviewed the lawsuits against the
airlines in order to determine which airlines had engaged in the most
egregious discrimination, so I could fly only that airline. But oddly,
rather than bragging about the charges, the airlines heatedly denied
discriminating against Middle Eastern passengers. What a wasted marketing
opportunity! Imagine the great slogans the airlines could use: "Now
Frisking All Arabs -- Twice!" "More Civil-Rights Lawsuits Brought by Arabs
Than Any Other Airline!" "The Friendly Skies -- Unless You're an Arab" "You
Are Now Free to Move About the Cabin -- Not So Fast, Mohammed!"
* From Coulter's September 13, 2001, National Review
<http://mediamatters.org/rd?http://www.nationalreview.com/coulter/coulterprint091301.html>column,
which resulted in her being
<http://mediamatters.org/rd?http://www.nationalreview.com/nr_comment/nr_comment100301.shtml>fired:
"We should invade their countries, kill their leaders and convert them
to Christianity. We weren't punctilious about locating and punishing only
Hitler and his top officers. We carpet-bombed German cities; we killed
civilians. That's war. And this is war."
