This was published in a montreal newspaper quite a few months ago, and recieved thousands of letters and emails protesting it, as well as threats to the montreal Editor.

I find it presumptuous and insulting, too. Given that this cartoon did not spawn riots, but rather letters, I think the response was at least within reason.

This is history, not news.
The majority of the civilized world cried over the loss of the statues as historical art, but I don't recall any rabid Buddhists rioting, killing and burning embassies over it.

My point was, going from graphic images to rioting, beheading and burning embassies is an escallation in the level of combat all out of proportion to any perceived offense these Muslims may take. :roll:

What's wrong with this picture? When's the last time you heard about that kind of destruction with pen and ink? :roll:

It seems that people here are gaining some sort of sick pleasure out of this whole issue. You know who you are.

Even if it wasn't the intention of the first Danish cartoonists to incite hatred out of ignorance to Islam, it certainly seems that it is yours.

I think the problem is that the common conception is that Islamic extremists don't really need much of a pretense to get their hatred all incited.

And your point being .... ? What makes you think what you mentioned has widespread support among the Moslem population? Their lack of vocal denunciation of such terrorist actions as compared with these hateful cartoons doesn't justify these cartoons in any way.

What is your thread going to accomplish other than more half-wit responses from those who think this is some sort of a game and nothing more than a laughing matter.

Grow up.

Awww look you got offended, Im sure your mom will help you out. You tell me to grow up? Grow a pair, they are cartoons, Perhaps if Radical Islamists did not throw there relgiion into the spotlight by violent actions these cartoons would not have happened. In the end it all comes back down to the Radical Muslims. So in your own words, grow up, they are cartoons, welcome to political cartoons, you should know all about them, the jewish ones in Arab papers have been there for decades.

And yes, the cartoons are justified, just as the jewish cartoons are justified. No, this is not a game, this is a display of freedom, my freedom to say what I want about anybody, and your freedom to do the same.

OUTRAGED MUSLIMS! OH MY!

We wake up this morning to see video on CNN showing rampaging Muslims around the world. In Europe, the Middle East, the Pacific Rim ... Muslim Mobs spreading mayhem. It seems that these mighty mad Muslims are rioting and firing their ever-present AK-47s into the air because of cartoons. Yup ... this latest epidemic of Muslim outrage comes to us because some newspapers in Norway and Denmark published some cartoons depicting Mohammed. In fact ... here is one of my favorites!



Admit it, this turban/bomb thing could be the next big fashion hit on the Muslim street!

Muslim outrage huh. OK ... let's do a little historical review. Just some lowlights:

Muslims fly commercial airliners into buildings in New York City. No Muslim outrage.
Muslim officials block the exit where school girls are trying to escape a burning building because their faces were exposed. No Muslim outrage.
Muslims cut off the heads of three teenaged girls on their way to school in Indonesia. A Christian school. No Muslim outrage.
Muslims murder teachers trying to teach Muslim children in Iraq. No Muslim outrage.
Muslims murder over 80 tourists with car bombs outside cafes and hotels in Egypt. No Muslim outrage.
A Muslim attacks a missionary children's school in India. Kills six. No Muslim outrage.
Muslims slaughter hundreds of children and teachers in Beslan, Russia. Muslims shoot children in the back. No Muslim outrage.
Let's go way back. Muslims kidnap and kill athletes at the Munich Summer Olympics. No Muslim outrage.
Muslims fire rocket-propelled grenades into schools full of children in Israel. No Muslim outrage.
Muslims murder more than 50 commuters in attacks on London subways and busses. Over 700 are injured. No Muslim outrage.
Muslims massacre dozens of innocents at a Passover Seder. No Muslim outrage.
Muslims murder innocent vacationers in Bali. No Muslim outrage.
Muslim newspapers publish anti-Semitic cartoons. No Muslim outrage
Muslims are involved, on one side or the other, in almost every one of the 125+ shooting wars around the world. No Muslim outrage.
Muslims beat the charred bodies of Western civilians with their shoes, then hang them from a bridge. No Muslim outrage.
Newspapers in Denmark and Norway publish cartoons depicting Mohammed. Muslims are outraged.
Dead children. Dead tourists. Dead teachers. Dead doctors and nurses. Death, destruction and mayhem around the world at the hands of Muslims .. no Muslim outrage ... but publish a cartoon depicting Mohammed with a bomb in his turban and all hell breaks loose.

Come on, is this really about cartoons? They're rampaging and burning flags. They're looking for Europeans to kidnap. They're threatening innkeepers and generally raising holy Muslim hell not because of any outrage over a cartoon. They're outraged because it is part of the Islamic jihadist culture to be outraged. You don't really need a reason. You just need an excuse. Wandering around, destroying property, murdering children, firing guns into the air and feigning outrage over the slightest perceived insult is to a jihadist what tailgating is to a Steeler's fan.

I know and understand that these bloodthirsty murderers do not represent the majority of the world's Muslims. When, though, do they become outraged? When do they take to the streets to express their outrage at the radicals who are making their religion the object of worldwide hatred and ridicule? Islamic writer Salman Rushdie wrote of these silent Muslims in a New York Times article three years ago. "As their ancient, deeply civilized culture of love, art and philosophical reflection is hijacked by paranoiacs, racists, liars, male supremacists, tyrants, fanatics and violence junkies, why are they not screaming?"

Indeed. Why not?

Do not assume that those who are upset over cartoons have no problem blowing up Buddha statues. You are making the incorrect assumptions that "they" supported both. There is a thread by railldogg about the Buddha statues that you should read

The FACT remains that the Muslim community said NOTHING after the statues were blown up.

Islam is held hostage by it's own. Get a clue !!
