25,000 Years Old Cave Drawings Spark Muslim Protests
Cave drawings thought to be older than those in the famed caves of Lascaux have been discovered in a grotto in western France. A first analysis by officials from the office of cultural affairs suggests the drawings were made some 25,000 years ago.
Several of the drawings—one showing an apparently turban-wearing human figure eating a wild pig—are deemed to be offensive to Islam. Coming on top of the cartoons of Mohammed published in Denmark and reprinted in several other European countries, Muslim anger has continued to swell.
“These infidels cannot continue to mock us without consequence,” said Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah. “The West should be prepared for the real holocaust. When Iran has the bomb there will be no mercy for these blasphemers.”
In an effort to placate Muslims outraged by these depictions, the U.S. State Department has directed all U.S. embassies to discontinue serving Danish or French pastries during all official functions.
“These feeble measures are not enough,” Nasrallah says. “At a minimum, Western nations must pass laws decreeing the death penalty for all who insult Islam there will be no peace. Failure to do so constitutes an act of aggression against our faith. Death and destruction will be the penalty.”
