cartoons... ideal way to kill muslims?

"4 more Afghan deaths during cartoon protests
11 killed in week; Muslim clerics call for calm as global unrest persists

Police shot four protesters to death Wednesday to stop hundreds from marching on a southern U.S. military base, as Islamic organizations called for an end to deadly rioting across the Muslim world over drawings of the Prophet Muhammad.

“Islam says it’s all right to demonstrate but not to resort to violence. This must stop,” said senior cleric Mohammed Usman, a member of the Ulama Council — Afghanistan's top Islamic organization. “We condemn the cartoons but this does not justify violence. These rioters are defaming the name of Islam.”"

I wish I'd thought of this. I need to get a cartoon published in the New Yorker, depicting Muhammad wearing a foppish top hat and glibly intoning "I say, what's all this then?". How many theofascists do you suppose I kill with that one?

We Europeans have the right to picture any historical figure we like.
The whole of Europe, left, right, social democrats and conservatives agree on this.
Our laws are the base of our actions within our countries. If someone from the outside is offended,their problem. If we back down now, what will be next? Will these people be offended by women wearing human clothes?

Most European muslims have reacted totally correctly and I support them. The demonstrations here were peaceful and calm, they feel offended, they use the means of our society to voice their protest. I applaud them and I´d support the demand of an apology from the Danish newspaper if it was not for their Arab cousins who would see this as a victory.

How come no Arab was offended when their religion was hijacked by murderers? I have seen no mass protests when thousands of innocent civilians were killed. I see a mob blindly rioting against 12 little pictures of an old warlord.
