Has anyone seen those "offensive" cartoons that were printed in that Danish newspaper? Any links on the web?
blimey, what a disappointment. those cartoons are rubbish, they'd never make it into private eye... i especially like the fact the newspaper has itself censored the cartoon of one of the cartoonists who didn't produce the expected goods. what a load.

writing a book pointing out how muslims treat women, so whats
new about hot headed muslims getting all up in arms about a
supposed picture of Mohammed? It just proves my point that
religion makes people insane. Just look at David Coresh, Jim
Jones, Bin Laden, Pat Robertson, the Iatolahs, they are all nutty
as a fruitbin. There bibles are missing a few chapters, They
want to force religion on you or kill you trying. That is a pretty
good definition of insane if you ask me.

Something interesting about the whole Danish cartoon controversy is to be found in Richard Dawking's "The god delusion."
In it he claims that the mullahs (or whoever) who spread the cartoons around in the Islamic world added a few extra cartoons which were highly provocative in nature (which weren't even published in Denmark). So the stirring of the pot was intentional.
Obviously anybody who gets their knickers (or their headscarves in this case) in a twist about a bloody cartoon needs their heads examined.
