And

In other words it was not an insult -- just constructive criticism.

Here are the 12 cartoons. None of them can be taken as saying you are a bad and stupid person for believing in a peace-loving God as moderate Moslems claim.

Is that why they put a bomb in Mohammed's turban? I had NO idea. Thanks for 'splainin' it.

I would think it would have been more accurate and appropriate to have depicted Osama Bin Laden with a bomb in his turban, but that would not have been nearly as OFFENSIVE, now would it?
