The Anglosphere has collectively failed in courage behind the European press. In US The NY Sun (the paper of this post) and the Philadelphia Inquirer have printed it.

LeMonde and Liberation have printed the cartoons.

The German newspapers Die Welt, Die Tageszeitung, Tagesspiegel and Berliner Zeitung, the Dutch papers Volksrant, NRC Handelsblad and Elsevier, Italy’s La Stampa and Corriere della Sera, Spain’s El Periodico and two Dutch-language newspapers in Belgium were among those that published some or all of the cartoons over the past several days.

Sarkozy backed the cartoons saying he supports free speech even in excess over censure.

Our State Department(quelle suprise) came out against their publication.
