Because it was proven that the cartoons. that were printed by the Newspaper were not the cartoons. that were shown to the islamic imans in Iran. And further more no person seems to be able to say anything bad or derogatory. about the Muslim Religion.\nBut for any other religion its ok for people to make fun of them.

This link gives more details\nBecause the core of the story is not related to the printing of the orignal and "genuine" 12 cartoons...\n\nAt the end of the link, the dark brown pics are the added cartoons that many say, the Danish Imam added when he wanted to create reactions from the muslim countries (5 months after the incident !).\n\nIf you have, like the Mufti of Marseille would say, maturity in your faith (if you are Muslim) the 12 original Cartoons should not make you react. Like the Mufti of Marseille says, Mr. Benchek, freedom of speech has been an essential aspect of how muslim live in the West. The reactions are proof that Muslims are not strong in their Faith and feel insulted for just a few pics of bad taste (he was reffering to ONLY the original Cartoons and not the Mysteriously 3 added ones...)\n\nMake sure you read throughly to distingish what is said.... Because if you only "look" you will be another one of the manipulated persons, which ever side of the coin you are on.\n\nCiao !

Remember, the U.S. had nothing to do with that "cartoon"!  get over it.  You don't see Christians burning buildings and killing people when someone draws a cartoon of Jesus!  I have nothing against Muslims.  It's the radical uneducated jerks that need to learn tolerance.

I think it is the definition if irony. The Muslums are upset over the depiction of their prophet with a bomb for a turban and they then commit terrorist acts. They are provint the cartoon to be accurate. Have you seen any other religion act like this? Look at all of the bad depictions of Jesus there are. Do christians go around threatening violence?

I think the whole "freedom of expression" thing has gone a little out of hand.\nWith action comes consequences. You can have all the "freedom of speech" you want but be prepared for the conditions and consequences that comes with it.\nI think what should come with the freedom of expression thing is "responsibility".\nJust because you want to publish the prophet muhammad on paper doesn't mean you're fighting in the name of freedom of speech.\nThere has to be a certain level of respect as well. To publish it in the national papers is not only scornful and disrespectful of the religion itself but also extremely offensive.\nTake it this way, with this liberty to do as you please there are consequences that come with it. You cannot possibly just say "we can do the hell we please" and expect everyone else to follow along in silence and submission.\nNo, I think it was irresponsible and unncessary for the paper to publish the pictures. It wasn't all that great, witty or artistic and it was in pretty bad taste.\nFreedom of expression shouldn't come with the ignorance tag. We should all remember that with the action comes the consequence, and remember before we do another offensive stint at religion, that it is a very sensitive, personal subject to many, many people.\nOne has to respect another person's belief as well.

Muhammed failed to produce a miracle because he's a fraud , a liar, a murderer, a rapist, a thief, an arsonist, a butcher of religions, a devil worshiper and a pedophile. Pork is in fact banned in islamic society, yet another thing they stole from the jews.

Terrorism exists because of misinterpretation of religious documents. It's that simple for both "I'm gonna bomb a bus" terrorism or "I'm going to beat up some gays" terrorism.

Straight from the Brussels Journal:\nhttp://www.brusselsjournal.com/node/698\n\nMuslims radicals can't take a joke.  Someone makes a cartoon and they throw a grenade in the french embassy window?  Jeez!  Everyone else in the world learns humility in grammar school!  If I got upset when someone made a joke at me my mom would have told me to grow up while she smacked my butt with her belt!

Heres the deal. ANY illustration of Mohammed by a Muslim is forbidden. \n\nHowever, it is only forbidden for Muslims. \n\nIts absurd. A comparison would be if Jews all over the world protested and rioted because *somebody* ate pork.

Try not to confuse terrorists and Muslims. If you recall, we had a supposedly "Christian ex-US Military, Operation Desert Storm VETERAN" who blew up the Federal Building in Oklahoma. He, much like the filth that flew planes into buildings in Sept. 2001, deserve the same thing, they are one in the same.\n\nThis isn't a Christian vs. Muslim thing...or it shouldn't be, but with sentiment like what you are writing, and what the idiots protesting a freaking cartoon, we are all being led down a dangerous path.\n\nThink before you write things.

The word 'cartoon' is irrelevant in this whole story - it is not the way Mohammed was depicted, but the very fact that he was depicted at all which causes offence to Muslims. There is no easy secular or Christian analogy.\n\nMy own opinion is that any newspaper aimed at a mass or general market should attempt to be sensitive to as many views as possible. Let those who wish to exercise press freedom as an end in itself, simply because they can, be happy with pamphleteering until they can appreciate that with freedom comes responsibility.

I knew about all of these and tell other people.  Unfortunately, people ignorantly give Israelis a permanent "get out of jail free" card regardless of how repugnant, murderous and terroristic their actions are.\n\nNo doubt you have been call "anti-semetic" as much as I have for saying these things, and no doubt you defend Israel's right to exist, as I do.\n\nOh, that's right: any criticism of Israel means you're a "nazi", no matter how factual your words are....

Yes it is true about the middle east.  I have seen cartoons in Arabic showing suicide bombers blowing up Jews.  These cartoons are shown to little children.  Also there is a misunderstanding about the afterlife thing.  They are convinced to blow themselves up for Allah not because it is so good after death, but because the Koran teaches that dying in Jihad is the only GUARANTEED way to get to heaven, all other ways you are taking your chance on if you have done more good than evil in your life.  (Which way the scales tip when Allah judges you.)\nBy these standards no, we are not teaching children hate in the west.

Your abuse of the language only validates your ignorance.  The Detention Centers that house captured  enemies of the world are not even close to the Concentration Camps of WWII, and your statement is an insulting abomination at best and treasonous at worst.  Your use of Islamic Fundamentalist verbiage merely shows everyone your sympathy for the enemy...

I'm pretty sure that they hosted Jews that fled Germany; quite positive.\n\nThey're currently in the cross-hairs of militant Islam, due to the cartoons depicting Mohammed. If they are now neutral, their opponent doesn't think so.

No, I don't!  I'm sick of all this persecution based on religion/culture.  Do I disagree with Muslims on many points and take issue with their actions?  Yes.  Do I think that because I disagree with them they are barbarians who don't deserve to live?  No.  It would be horribly egocentric of me or anyone else to declare themselves a moral authority and decide and entire people don't deserve to live.  Someone else gave themselves that same sort of moral authority about sixty-five years ago.  His name was Adolf Hitler.  I'm glad to see we've all learned so much from the past.  Way to promote bigotry, world.
