Don't They Kill People for Less?
In 1975 the band Grateful Dead released an album titled Blues for Allah.
Which doesn't paint the Muslims in a favorable light, and definitely slams the god of Islam. So, why didn't the Muslims head hunt Jerry Garcia? Kurt Westergaard draws a cartoon of an Arab with a bomb in his turban? He called it Muhammad, and gets a devotee to chop on him in 2010? Were Muslims kinder and gentler back in 75? Or were they just into the Dead?
GRATEFUL DEAD LYRICS
"Blues For Allah"
Arabian wind, The needle's eye is thin, The ships of state sail on mirage,
And drown in sand, Out in no-man's land where Allah does command.
What good is spilling blood? It will not grow a thing;
Taste eternity the swords sing: Blues of Allah In 'sh'Allah.
They lie where they fall, There's nothing more to say,
The desert stars are bright tonight lets meet as friends,
The Flower of Islam, The Fruit of Abraham.
The thousand stories have come round to one again,
Arabian night, Our Gods pursue their fight,
What fatal flowers of darkness bloom from seeds of light.
Bird of paradise fly in white sky, Blues for Allah In 'sh'Allah,
Let's see with our heart, These things our eyes have seen,
And know the truth must still lie somewhere in between.
Under eternity, under eternity, under eternity blue,
Bird of paradise fly in white sky, Blues for Allah In 'sh'Allah.
