Eh, it wasn't just the Dutch, our fore-fathers were playing the French, Spaniards and British against each other too, but hey, all those countries have had problems with Islam too, so in a off-hand way, you’re still right.

i see no funny or seriousness in that pic.....
They guy should have known better, I mean how uptight Muslims can be with depicting relgious figures. Most other relgions don't really care how theirs are portrayed, but I'm guessing he knew and what might have happend. It's comparable to making fun of the bullys' mom and publishing it in the school newspaper and claiming it freespeech, well of course you're gonna get your ass kicked and suspended, the samething could be said with the uproar.
ironic, isn't it? They shouldn't idolize him, yet they do...Islamic law is interpreted to forbid any depictions of the Prophet Muhammad for fear they could lead to idolatry.
^^What more can you expect. Most of the people in that region's only education
is in Islam. Those that can go to a normal school don't hold Islam in such a high
regard. Go to those countries and you learn to not listen to the constant pouring out Islam all day long from the mosque via PA systems.
True... because most of them see the obvious hypocritical nature of Muhammad's teachings vs how he conducted his life (which is described by the Hadith... a book jih-a-dists take to heart).
You mean like the Chruch-bells down my street?
Eh, 90% of Muslims are peaceful, hard-working moms and dads, but 10%, like 10% in any population, are religious extremists. That's 10% out of a population of 1+ billion though, which makes about 1 million extremists willing to tie bombs to themselves and blow up American targets around the world. Is that what we want?
I didn't say it was just the Dutch. Just saying they did give a LOT of the initial loan money for America's revolution.
good point. Why are ppl getting so pissed at the protests? they have a right to protest too. If some are gonna be dumb enough to piss off millions of ppl, then the free-world that defends free speech should accept the consequences w/out ing.
then again, with people w/a religion that beleives in killing all infidels, you're bound to piss them off sooner or later
The cartoonists apparently were encouraged by the editor of the paper to do the funnies....to prove that they were not afraid of the muslims...they were showing there stones.
BTW, England has forbidden its papers from running the cartoons....
Then there is no point about talking about the uproar, if everybody knew the outcome.
Will the price of Danish pastries go up now that the Danes are at war with terror?
I've been to a Christian service with a Danish Pastry one time.
He gave a great surmon.
An Iranian newspaper (at the encouragment of the government) is now holding a contest for people who can come up with the 12 greatest "Holocaust" cartoons.
The dozen winners all get a gold coin.
They suspect Western papers won't run THOSE cartoons.
I suspect they might be right.
I bet a lot of papers will run those cartoons.
I hope you're right.
That's the one thing that bugs me. Rad Muslims can dish heat out,but never take any. That is my problem with extermists(besides the condoning of murder to everybody besides their own group -- then maybe even not so they're own people just the people who share their radical views). They're so hypocritical it is not even funny. Sometimes I feel the US should just exit Iraq exert all it's energy to finding a new way of fuel sources and get out of the Middle East and revert back to isolationsim towards the ME.
I want to ask them "Do you guys ever use those AK's or just talk and use bombs then run away?"...
As far as exiting Iraq. That's like really getting off topic... But we are already drawing down slowly at the moment so it's gonna happen.
There are about 18000 less troops there now and some boatloads of M1's coming back.
