Subject:  Danish Muhammad Cartoonist Returns with New Work






 *BACK TO THE DRAWING BOARD - Danish Muhammad Cartoonist Returns with New
Work* *November 12, 2008* *Spiegel Online* *

*One of the controversial Danish cartoonists who sparked riots in the Muslim
world in 2005 by drawing caricatures of the Prophet Muhammad is set to
return soon with new works reflecting on the incident.*

Kurt Westergaard, the Danish caricaturist forced into hiding after the
publication of his depiction of the Prophet Muhammad in the newspaper *
Jyllands-Posten* in 2005, is set to return with a new set of potentially
controversial drawings.

According to a report in the Copenhagen Post, Westergaard is expected to
have 26 illustrations in a new book that compiles the sardonic columns by
Danish writer Lars Hedegaard for the *Berlingske Tidende* newspaper.

Danish cartoonist Kurt Westergaard has been living at home again since
summer, though he is still under state protection.

The paper writes that one of the drawings in the book features former Danish
Foreign Minister Uffe Ellemann-Jensen, who spoke out against the original
Muhammad cartoons, kneeling with an inkwell that reads "freedom of
expression." A black-bearded man with a bomb in his turban is peering out of
the inkwell. Writer Hedegaard told the paper there was "no intention to
depict the so-called prophet," but that people could always interpret
drawings in different ways. He said he expected no backlash as a result of
the publication.

Westergaard, 73, was forced to go into hiding under protection from the
official state secret service agency PET and had to live in safe houses
after a plot to kill him was uncovered. Last summer he returned home, though
he still remains under protection.

The cartoonist has repeatedly stated that he has no regrets about drawing
the original caricature for *Jyllands-Posten*. Westergaard has also said
that he is not anti-Muslim, telling SPIEGEL ONLINE last spring: "I know a
lot of Muslims living here in Denmark who accept democracy completely and
who live their religion as a very private matter. I hope that all Muslims
will adapt to secular society. There is currently friction between Muslim
and Christian culture. But I am quite sure that our Western Democratic
culture will prevail over the darker version of Islam. We must have
Islam-light."

Responding to the protests and deadly riots the caricatures sparked in the
Muslim world, Westergaard said: "If it hadn't been the cartoon, it would
have been a book or play or a film that would have provoked the protests. We
have to get through this period of friction between the two cultures. I hope
that our Muslim fellow citizens will understand what it means to live in a
democracy. Even if you are against the democracy, you can still live there,
but you must fight with peaceful means."

One of the two Tunisian born-men arrested in February for plotting to kill
Westergaard remains in Denmark because he faces torture should he be
deported to Tunisia. Over the weekend, though, the government in Copenhagen
agreed to transfer him from Aarhus, where Westergaard lives, to Sandholm
Asylum Center north of Copenhagen. The suspect will be able to move freely
in and out of the facility, but he must be in daily contact with the police.
The *Copenhagen Post* reported that Westergaard was happy about the
transfer.
