BEIRUT, Feb 5 (Reuters) - Lebanese demonstrators set the Danish consulate on fire on Sunday to protest against the publication by European newspapers of cartoons of the Prophet Mohammad, a Reuters witness said.

A cloud of black smoke was billowing from the site. The images of the Prophet, forbidden in Islam, first appeared in a Danish newspaper.

The poor Danes! Well, will these brave Mohammedan citizens now torch the German, French, Swiss, Italian, Dutch, and Spanish embassies? Something tells me they won't. But then, you never know with psychos, do you?

I somehow doubt that the Danes will put up with too much of this crap.

This is planned by someone, probably Iran.

"The protesters, who came in buses from all over Lebanon, waved green Islamic flags and banners, some of them reading: "O nation of Muhammad, wake up!" Muslim clerics were seen among the protesters."

This may be a tipping point in the culture war.

If this is the culture War CNN is clearly on the other side. While embassies burned, CNN lovingly explained the rioters point of view. They started referring to the Koran as the Holy Quaran during the toilet incident, another which outraged Islam.

Now they refer to Muhammad as the Prophet Mohammad. They who smirk at the mention of Christ, Christianity, Judaism, are outright reverent at anything Islamic.

Hoping the crocodile eats you last, CNN, or is it all that nice access?
