The newspaper's culture editor, Fleming Rose, says he intended simply to test cartoonists to see if they were self-censoring their work, out of fear of violence from Islamic radicals. He cited a Danish comedian, who said in an interview that he had no problem urinating on the Bible but that he would not dare do the same to the Koran.

"Some Muslims try to impose their religious taboos in the public domain," said Mr. Rose. "In my book, that's not asking for my respect, it's asking for my submission."

The Danish press has more guts than the American press.

said Mr. Rose. "In my book, that's not asking for my respect, it's asking for my submission."

this is the whole ball of wax - and not just with this one incident. This is what they plan - submission - of all of us, to Islam.

Submission, in all things, is the prime tenant of Islam. Muslims are instructed on every action in their lives - they have learned submission from the cradle. Obey or die.

They plan to rule the world -= and they have patiently infiltrated (some call it immigrated) every country. Those who are peaceful, when it comes to marching orders from their imams - well, you can see what they will do - look at the newsreels.

It's not even a contest, unfortunately.
