Swedish Muslim group to sue newspaper over Muhammad drawing

Mahmoud Aldebe, chairman of the Swedish Muslim Federation, said the group would sue the newspaper for inciting hatred against ethnic groups. "It ridicules our religion.

What nasty little thin skined *****
Thanks for the toons. You have FRmail

Ya, so which Muslim group do we sue for 9/11?
How about, ‘All of them who did NOT denounce it!’?
“There are certain responsibilities of free speech.”

How do we sue to recoup the cost of fighting the war on terror — which by the time is PC for War against ISLAMISTS.
When will it become prudent to round them up for internment camps — ala WWII?
After a major city is radioactive for a 1000 years?
These bastards are protesting FAR TOO MUCH — while at the same time SILENT over the atrocities of their co-religionists...
As usual the muz have it backwards. Tolerating this ridicule will send a progressive message. Muslims hate freedom.
YES and awesome post RR.
Thanks for the drawing that is my new blackberry wallpaper.
