(Sweden:) ”Nerikes Allehanda”, the local newspaper that published a controversial cartoon of the Prophet Mohammed, has been given support by the World Association of Newspapers.

More than 18,000 newspapers around the world are members of the organistation, which says in a statement that it condemns the death threats made against artist Lars Vilks and the Editor-in-Chief of Nerikes Allehanda Ulf Johansson.

The W.A.N says it understands that the publication may have caused offence to Muslims, but adds that the newspaper enjoys full freedom of expression and can print what it likes.

Muslims are the largest single group of whiners in the history of human kind.

“Muslims are the largest single group of whiners in the history of human kind.”

- If a cartoon makes a ‘religious’ person hysterical, something is probably basically wrong, not with that particular cartoon but with that religion.

“Rep. Ellison To Go On Food Stamps”
OK. I will never again believe anything that a headline says in the mainstream media.
Headlines lie and exaggerate.
Then you read the article and see that the headline is false.
Here too. He is NOT going on food stamps!

The W.A.N says it understands that the publication may have caused offence to Muslims,

... but added that it didn't give a tin sh-t, and that "offending muslims is a daily occurrence, seems like. These people are offended by a leaf falling from a tree. So to hell with them."
