Dutch Islamists post cartoons depicting Anne Frank, Hitler in bed (as "revenge")

A Belgian-Dutch Islamic political organization posted anti-Jewish cartoons on its Web site in response to the cartoons of the prophet Mohammed that appeared in Danish papers last year and offended many Muslims.

The cartoons were posted on the Arab European League's site on Saturday. It was not working Sunday morning because of exceeded bandwidth.

The cartoons depicting Mohammed wearing a turban-shaped bomb were first published in Denmark, and then in newspapers elsewhere in Europe in a show of solidarity with press freedoms.

The Islamic site carried a disclaimer saying the images were being shown as part of an exercise in free speech rather than to endorse their content - just as European newspapers have reprinted the Danish cartoons.

One of the AEL cartoons displayed an image of Dutch Holocaust victim Anne Frank in bed with Adolf Hitler, and another questioned whether the Holocaust actually occurred.

Dyab Abou Jahjah, the party's founder and best-known figure, defended the action on the Dutch television program Nova Saturday.

"Europe has its sacred cows, even if they're not religious sacred cows," he told the program.

Apparently these folks never heard of the Waffen-SS Handschar Division.

Somehow I think we will not see islamic embassies being burned to the ground or Danes marching in the streets calling for the head of the muslim who drew this.

I know he wanted his adopted son's wife and took her. I'll see if I can find that about raping a wife in front of her dead father.

Heck I guess this means I've got to get up some friends and riot, maybe burn an Arab consulate or two. Damn. And I was planning on watching the football game, too.

If the Mohammedians want to go one-on-one with cartoons, they'll lose. They have no sense of humor. We will laugh them out of town!

[Lady Heron]

The islamic world would go 100% psycho. What could they say? She was 5 when they married and 9 when he consummated the marriage. They know it's true.

There has been nothing untrue about the cartoons I have seen so far and that is their problem they can not counter their own evil image by claiming slander because it is all true.

I have to admit that this is a better (and far more appropriate) form of protest than the rioting and violence that many Muslims are engaged in. But since these cartoons were offensive to most Europeans, not just the ones who published the Mohammed pictures, the Muslims who published these are being just as unreasonable and offensive (in the eyes of Europeans) as the Danish were (in the eyes of Muslims).

Sick!

[vimto]

I've noticed after Mohamed's name Muslims put "(saw)"...does that mean sick and wicked?

Just another porn site.

"Nobody caricatures a muslim as well as muslims do every day of their lives"

One has to wonder where all the hate and fomenting comes from. My guess is that the muslims have been watching the TV speeches of the U.S. Democrat leadership... Howie Dean, Kennedy, Pelosi, Reid, etc.

[steelyourfaith]

Never underestimate the Islamic genius for comedy.

I beleive you are right ... .

But since these cartoons were offensive to most Europeans, not just the ones who published the Mohammed pictures,

??? In what way were these cartoons offensive to non-islamic Europeans????

[gotribe]

That's even better!

Agreed. The cartoons are true. That is their problem with them. How can they counter the truth? They can't, that's why all the burning and protesting. We infidels aren't suppose to know the little details. It upsets their apple cart.

Mad Mohammed being humped by a pig.

Amazing....unfortunately, his list of "wives" reads like a serial rapist's list of victims.

[Young Scholar]

I was referring to the ones the Muslims published of Anne Frank and Hitler. My point was, instead of attacking the actions of the people who published the Mohammed cartoons, they decided to descend to the same level and offend all decent non-Muslims (making themselves no better by any standard).
