The cartoons are from September. It's only an issue because of boycotts and threats of death. If there were no threats, there would be no issue. Jews and Christians don't threaten death when cartoons against them are posted so there's never an issue. Again, look in Arab newspapers to see what they publish and you'll see worse stuff than what was published 5 months ago in Denmark. The other papers are publishing to show support in the face of threats of violence. Again, something you don't see from Jews, Christians or just about any other religion. I'm not against Islam or Muslims, I'm against the stupid mofos who rape and kill in it's name. I'm against the extremists who bomb their own people, my people and would bomb yours as well if they could. I'm against the people who go out of their way to rile up their brothers to these extremes. We're just hearing now about a pamphlet going around the Muslim world published by Muslims to showcase not only the Danish pictures but others as well. I'm waiting to see hard news coverage of this before posting a link, but this was a non-issue for 5 months until 'someone' riled the Muslim world up and it wasn't the Danish.
