Where are our intrepid artists, so willing to challenge the existing order by means of exhibits intended to "offend" and "provoke discussion" and "raise questions" when it comes to the islamo-world?

I mean, crucifixes in urine and imagery of the Blessed Virgin spattered with excrement were just peachy when it came to the treatment of Christianity.

Will the artistic community step up to the plate and "raise questions" about the Islamic religion? After all, it (or branches of it) condone a two-track society in which women are afforded second-class status, cannot own property, and are subjected to gruesome mutilation of their sexual organs.

Where are the Korans submerged in urine?

Where are the Korans spattered in feces?

I await the first of the artists who will show his or her courage by challenging the Islamic world as they did the Christian world.

Some company should see their jihad and raise a crusade.
