Any second, Bill Clinton will chime in (on the side of the Mohammedans, of course).

I suddenly have newfound respect for the French and Germans.

I must be imagining things - this cannot be, Europeans standing up to Muslims.

[ScaniaBoy]

Great minds think alike - you beat me to it by 7 s.

[SF Republican]

Holy moly, dem boys is a hit!

[joesnuffy]

One positive thing is that a public free speech representation of Mohamhead reveals the true character of Islam..

Perhaps that will be enough for the gullible to wake up and smell the falafal.

F**k 'em if they can't take a joke.....

And, not from the Danish media, but let's not leave out:

I am shocked.

Just when you think the French and Germans have no onions they do something politically incorrect. My respect meter just bumped up a notch. Now if they will both just send troops to Iraq or if they will join forces and invade Iran.

[Eagles Talon IV]

Good, this is exactly the way to handle these terminally offended wild eyed freakin' savages. They need to be told loudly and often that free speech means not having to tip toe around their culture of death and the savages who believe in it.

Instead of facing down threats early, with less bloodshed, the Euros always ignore them, until it is almost too late.

Then they wake up, and paint their continent red.

Nobody, but nobody, throws a good, bloody cataclysm like the Euros. They are about 40 years overdue for one, and they just can't change their nature.

[McGavin999]

I think the west woke up when the Palestinians freely elected Hamas. Before that, the euros were perfectly content to think the terrorists were a small minority of Islam. They could ignore what was happening because Muslims were "victems". Now it's obvious they've had ENOUGH.

You can only be pushed so far before you eventually have to either push back or die. The euros have decided not to die.

[Centurion2000]

Never thought I'd say this.

Well done France.

And Germany is making headway back to being an ally

Could this cartoon have the same effect as a certain assasination in Bosnia just before WWI?

[Dark Skies]

Another German paper, the Berliner Zeitung, also reprinted two cartoons as part of its coverage of the controversy.

It's spreading!

[Sunsong]

What is the "offical" Muslim response to our being *offended* by being called "infidels"? And what about their treatment of Christianity and Judaism?

As soon as they stop offending us with names like "infidels" and the truly offensive beheadings and suicide bombings - we will be happy to take a look at what offends them.

[george wythe]

There are several countries already on the Mohammedans' black list.

Denmark
Norway
France
Germany

Let's see if the Mohammedans can boycott all Western nations.

[jordan8]

If any native Frenchman or German said in public that the presence of these Muslim immigrants is illegitimate and de facto racism his government would clap him in jail and these same newspapers would applaud. They've helped crush freedom of expression before, indeed the present looming threat of sharia is built on that prior crushing of freedom.

The utterly innocuous cartoons in question:
