Another freeper said this and I'm beginning to think it's true:

Islam is an army disguised as a religion.

Golda Meir once said that there would only be peace between the Arabs and the Jews when the Arabs love their children more than they hate the Jews. Unfortunately, I think that she was too limited in her scope.

I guess the BBC won't be following up on a Muslim version of their Catholic comedy series, "Father Ted."

a clash between Western free speech and Islamic taboos - a struggle the latter's protagonists now appear to be winning.

Yep. Free speech had already been devalued in Europe in the name of political correctness, this is just an extension of that. The fact that the establishment is importing Muslims in the first place is an indication of how they regard Western values.

Everything I have found about The War of the 12 Cartoons ( links, blogs, quips, quotes, aggravating pictures ) is located here- click the Pic, and scroll backwards:

Thanks, both of you.

Crowman's link provided this address: http://face-of-muhammed.blogspot.com/ where I found the 12 cartoons.

I don't get it, to be honest. The cartoons must have a danish/muslim cultural divide inbuilt. I don't see the offense, the humor, the point, etc., except in a few of them. The "running out of virgins" cartoon was sort of funny. I didn't get it with most of the rest.

I suspect the cartoon thing is an Iranian inspired PR offensive designed to support their anti-American nuke aspirations.

Or NBC, was it, with the Muslim version of the Book of Daniel?
