Mohammed cartoon makes a comeback
Herald Sun ^ | February 13 2008

Posted on 02/12/2008 9:08:50 PM PST by Aussie Dasher

ONE OF Denmark's biggest newspapers republished the controversial drawing of Muslim prophet Mohammed less than a day after a plot to kill the cartoonist was foiled.

The cartoon depicting the prophet with a bomb under his turban has appeared on the homepage of the Jyllands-Posten newspaper – as well as being published three times on a page featuring the story of the plot to kill Kurt Westergaard.

Yesterday, three men accused of conspiring to kill Westergaard were arrested by Danish authorities.

Westergaard produced one of a series of drawings of Mohammed published by the newspaper in 2005, sparking outrage around the world and forcing the publication’s management to implement security precautions for its staff.

Editor-in-chief at the Jyllands-Posten, Carsten Juste, said the publication of the cartoon was not in breach of any laws and Westergaard should not have been the target of any threats of violence.

As the EU filed a criminal complaint against them yet for “
religious insensitivity”.

Good for the Danish Newspapers. Rage against the dying of the light.

That’s too funny! Gotta love those folks. There hasn’t been any rioting around the world for a couple of days, so it’s time to start them up again. Besides, I’ve been missing RAGE BOY! LOL! Hopefully he will make another appearance now. ;o)

Dear Jihadi Muslims,

Please be very offended and enraged. We need to smoke you out so that we can more easily send your evil souls back to Hell.

Thanks for listening.

If theses idiots would have just ignored those cartoons, they would have disappeared., now they are a point of contention. Now they think they have to be addressed, with all the consequence involved. Islam = as?hats. Again.

This cartoonist needs to go well heeled if they're gunnin or him. If it's him or them, I suspect he hopes its them.

Course, it's prolly illegal for law-abiding citizens to carry there, concealed or not, so they can more easily go down like sheep before wolves.

What do govt's care?

Why isn’t the cartoonist’s name as well known as Salman Rushdie’s?

Why isn’t Theo Van Gogh’s name as well known?

Some make a career out of claiming that their life is in danger while others really are killed for their defiance.

The EUSSR was MIA when the studio re-released The Life Of Brian to take advantage of the press The Passion Of The Christ was receiving.
