I guess they are entitled to their Free Speach. I think we should show cartoons that make point out the facts about the cancer that Islam is.

So, Holocaust cartoons... gee, that'll really teach those dirty Danes!

Evangelical Lutheran 95%,
other Protestant and Roman Catholic 3%,
Muslim 2%

Muslim's suck. I'm so tired of their crap. And yes, I mean ALL of them. What good are the moderates that are supposed to make up so much of the Muslim faith, if they don't do squat.

This looks like a good idea. Hopefully they'll draw a whole lot of them and then wait...


and wait...


and wait...


hm, nobody gives a damn.

Somebody should tell the Iranians that this sort of thing has been done many times before, and--surprise, surprise--Jews the world over didn't go firebombing embassies over it.

The cartoons depict the Israeli Prime Minister, Ariel Sharon, as a Satanic figure, with horns and a tail and a swastika neck-tie.

"Quickly, go and build 10 more settlements," he says to a group of hook-nosed, religious Jews, "so we can remove them in front of the cameras."

Mohammed Khalil, who teaches Mass Communications at Cairo University, says depicting Israelis as Nazis is legitimate political commentary.

Anti-Semitic stereotypes continue to be prevalent in cartoons published in the Qatari newspaper, Al-Watan. These cartoons demonize Jews, often depicting them as dirty, hook-nosed, money-hungry world dominators.

In "Peace: The Arabian Caricature: A Study of Anti-Semitic Imagery," Arieh Stav, director of the Ariel Center for Policy Research in Tel Aviv, documents the vicious anti-Semitic cartoons that proliferate in the Arab world with public and official endorsement. Historically, these caricatures are not unique to the Arab world, but what this book makes clear is that in the Middle East today they are commonplace, generating stereotypes of evil, fusing anti-Semitism with anti-Zionism.

Interesting choice, though. They know criticism of the Holocaust is a sensitive issue for the West, and they also know that any insults towards Christianity couldn't be any worse then what the West has dished out towards its cornerstone faith already. But in this end this will only serve to highlight the differences between how the Western world and the Muslim world reacts to this kind of thing.
