He seemed receptive but could only pass the suggestion "up the line."
No one that I can recall ever said that the "art" should be illegal to produce. And no one rioted over the issue.
You know, since the combined output of all the middle east (taking out oil) is less than that of Finland - these boycotts can only go so far - they don't make anything and must purchase most of their goods from someone.
Well, obviously someone, somewhere, sees some kind of connection that is hidden from non-Islamofascists....

Time to look for and buy Danish products.
"So, let them not depict him. But Christians and Jews, Hindus and Buddhists are not prohibited, and I assume that the Danish cartoonists were not Muslims"
Have you heard the Muslim spokesman who said he demands that "new rules" be established in Europe that make everybody play by Muslim standards? Gimme a break! Sounds a little bit like the homosexual activist civil-rightsers right here in the US of A...
Yes, and thank God for the internet. Aside from the blatant cowardice implicit in that statement it is inaccurate as well - peril shared is peril diluted. But check this one out:
But the European polis is not altogether controlled by the big corporations. The Europeans still have an attachment to their liberties, including their press liberties.
Nor is the American polis. And it isn't corporate control that is the issue here, it is the self-confessed cowardice of the author that is the issue.
The American press gets a big, fat zero from this pen. I am absolutely appalled at its craven submission and at its desperate intellectual backflips such as this author's to blame Bush or the corporations for it.
As I mentioned on another thread, I equate the muslim reaction to the kid who gets caught smoking and pop has him puff on a nice strong cigar to "get his mind right". The posting of these cartoon images on every tree, wall, telephone pole, etc. would illustrate our freedom of expression and our wish for freedom everywhere. The muslims acting out, as also with the democrats, does nothing but hinder their causes. Let freedom ring!!
This statement seems to fly in the face of the current political correctness trend among liberals.

I bought some Lego the other day. Felt good, even if it was not for me.
Let me see if I have this quite right. In these Muslim theocracies you are not allowed to have a picture/image of your great prophet, Mohammed but everywhere around the country are posters of a great mullah, imam, ayatolla, bin ladin, hussein, king, sheik or other party power. Interesting marketing plan.
If that were true, they would not have hammered the Abu Ghraib story to death, or the phony Koran flushing, or printed every crticism of the war in Iraq on their front pages day in and day out. They were only concerned for their own pathetic safety.
Christains don't kill you over "piss christ", but muslims will slaughter your whole family over a damn cartoon.
As for boycotts of Danish products, Democracies everywhere should place a complete food trade embargo on any country that boycotts Danish goods. See how long they can keep it up when they start starving to death.
LOL!
Funny.
