I had the same thought. Have every newspaper in every western nation reproduce the cartoons. Are the going to blow up the entire world? Instead of kowtowing to these clowns, they should be given the same treatment as has been given to the Christians and Jews. Saying that the Muslim God cannot be shown in a cartoon - to me - says this is not the same God of Abraham but something else entirely. Something that cannot stand being rediculed.

Just when many have replaced their burnt out cars with new ones...

Maybe not. They burned all the dealerships too.

Great site!

For anyone with some extra time, the site has loads of really funny photos (mostly moonbats in action):

The entire world should publish mohammad toons in support of free speech.

If intolerant RoPers had not made such a big deal about it in the first place, it would have been a non-issue from the beginning.

The best answer is have the world awash in depictions of mohammad to show them we will not kowtow to aspects of their sharia law.

Let them learn to deal with it in the same way they have to deal with us eating pork, drinking alcohol and not making our women live inside tents.

"Zombie's Mohammed Image Archive"

Cool. The first one, from 1789, refers to Mahomet the Impostor!

zombie does the work the Jackal Pack Press claims to do, but does not.

I highly recommend everyone take a look at all of his pictures and commentary, especially the "breasts not bombs" and the Scrotum Inflator. ( Obviously, it's Adult-Rated, but this is what sort of adveraries we are faced with. )

Once again the Mudslimes show their abiding, bitter hatred for the most basic human freedom. Once again, here's a link to the cartoons:

This link loads slowly but is worth the wait because all of the cartoons are in English. Just in case representatives of the ROP manage to shut it down, here's another link to another source, but some of the cartoons are in Danish:

It's curtesy of Freeper ScaniaBoy.

Maybe some of these secular huminists have figured out that "The enemy(Islam) of my Enemy(Christians), really _isn't_ my friend" and perhaps even further that maybe Christians really aren't so bad afterall. It's not like you see Catholic Altar boys torching Citroen's every night.

What you say is precisely why I have been posting links to the full set of cartoons every time an article on this issue is posted here. The Mudslimes must realize that, the more they try to supress free speech, the more often the full set of cartoons will be posted here and elswhere.

This is truly bizarre. I hate to ask but is this some new fad? I can't bring myself to google it...

Lots of folks here seem to be congratulating "France" or the "French". This is nothing of the kind. It is ONE NEWSPAPER.. one courageous and enlightened newspaper... but ONE NEWSPAPER ONLY.

It is not "France" the government, nor France the mass of citizenry. There may be a superstrong anti-clerical and secularist tone to French society (the head scarf ban), but there is an even stronger appeasement mentality there.

How soon before Monsieur Chirac offers his heartfelt apologies to Muslims for upsetting them with these cartoons? How soon before French Muslims start torching whole neighborhoods again? How soon before the white-flag French back down and make kissy-pooh with the Muslim blackmailers?

If the government and mainstream French media stand up and support the newspaper in question, and stand up for free speech and a free press in the face of Muslim threats, THEN I will start to be impressed.
