What is truly sad (apart from what Drac said) is that we have never seen these 'cartoons'. Our tv won't show them and if they have I haven't. And if we haven't seen them then we can't comment. I remember when The Satanic Verses was publish, most of the Muslim world wanted Rushdie dead on the say-so of one man who had not himself read the book. The so called Muslim Extremists show us what a world controlled by Islam would truly be like. We would be governed by rules that mean we could not paint, draw or render, for - according to the Koran - only God may do these things and for us to create them is blasphemy. Yet hypocrisy is rife amongst the so-called extremists. The Koran also says that man should not let the blade touch his face. Which means if I understand it correctly that Muslims should not shave. And yet how many Muslims have you seen on the tv with only a moustash instead of the full beard demanded by the Koran? They do not want disrespectful cartoons and yet they burn our flags and demand that we as unbelievers be beheaded. As for all of those above this post, I may not agree with all that is said in this world, but I will defend to the death their right to say it...
