Reportedly, a newspaper in Saudi Arabia was shut down for publishing the
profane cartoons of Prophet Muhammad that outraged the Muslim world.
Sems newspaper employees said the Information Ministry closed the paper
after they published some of the 12 cartoons, which were first published
in the Danish daily, Jyllands-Posten.
Sems, whose owner is related to the Saudi royal family, also reported that
religious leaders had granted the paper permission to publish information
offensive to Muslims if it helps acquaint them with an issue.
In Yemen, 2 papers, who also published the offensive cartoons, had earlier
been closed.
===============================
Of course they publish antisemitic cartoons and articles all the time.
And that is all right, isn't it.
