Jeez, if we burned a building every time 'Doonesbury' sucked there wouldn't be a city left standing anywhere in the U.S.

LOL!

I would add, there wouldn't be a city left standing anywhere in the world.

are we keeping track of deaths caused by protests stirred up by imams?

We have to be up to a few dozen, what with teh koran in the toilet and this and all.

The global crisis is that most of the world does not see that islam is trying to destroy everything that is not muslim.

Wake up, I don't have enough ammo to take care of this by myself!!!

The cartoons aren't the crisis. The religion of Islam is Mr. Prime Minister.

Iran has banned Danish imports and halted trade ties.

European Commission spokesman Johannes Laitenberger said it was considering its response as "a boycott of Danish goods is by definition a boycott of European goods".

LOL! Forget the U.N. In tantrum mode, Iran may just end up imposing economic sanctions on itself. Suits me. And I'm sure the millions of restive, Western culture oriented, Iranian youth will love suddenly being cut off from consumer goods, and the jobs that trade creates.

If a few lousy cartoons can set off a global crisis, wait'll the Europeans do something that really ticks off the Muslims! And wait until the Champs Elysee--and every other European road--has become the fabled Arab Street, just itching to erupt.

The alarm clock went off a long time ago, but they tossed it out the window and went back to sleep.

The next thing that goes off will wake them up all right--but too late. Europe is sitting on a time bomb.

P.S. MESSAGE TO EUROPEANS: Don't count on the Yanks to come to the rescue. You're on your own. We warned you.

The West needs to stop wringing their hands over these idiots with PC nonsense, and spell it out to them: "It's called FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION. Learn to live with it, learn to enjoy it, and if you cannot accept it, cannot protest whatever you find offensive in a PEACEFUL manner, get out of our countries and go back to the sandy sh!tholes from whence you came. We'll even help you!"

Imagine what the world may have been like if Mohammed wasn't deprived of a sense of humor. The Koran must not contain any verses about hypocrisy. Whud they use for tent poles? Femurs?

Sick of it? Already? This is the most fun I've had since the liberals went insane over Bush's re-election.

Now that we've seen how easy it is to drive the lunatics into a frenzy -- we should release NEW pictures of the True Face of Islam every week.....

Cartoons need not focus on Mohammed -- there are ample aspects of Islam to provide a target rich environment for scorn and to reveal the hypocrisy.....

Semper Fi

Showing pictures of women in underwear is a blasphemy too. Are American newspapers going to cancel their lingerie ads? Lets be consistent. Either we accept the boot to the neck or not... There is no inbetween.

No...basically, I want to live in peace. I want to go to work, watch movies, attend parties, do the banal things that we all take so much for granted, but that our men in uniform would give their left arm (and some have) to do.

But I feel angry. I feel that everything is waiting...everything is sitting on the edge. I feel like we are in Europe in 1938. Everything is going to happen, we just don't know it yet.

I am tired of watching these animals pretend to be upset about damned cartoons. I was pretty upset about the Tom Toles cartoon the other day, but I am not about to kill people over it.

But these FRIKKING Islamofacist lunatics are. It makes me REALLY wish there wasn't a moral obligation not to drop cluster bombs on idiots setting buildings on fire because of a cartoon. Instead of "Why can't we all get along?" I am thinking "Why can't we call in coordinates?".

I am sick and damned tired of this Islamofacist bullshit. I have no problem with Muslims, I know a few, they are wonderful people-they are Americans who happen to be Muslim. They may disagree with some things in American society or the world at large that they find in conflict with their religion, but they aren't ready to kill over it. Hell, I see a lot of things I disagree with, but I am not going to set cars on fire, attach a sheet of islamofacist rantings to somebody's chest with a knife, or fly planes of screaming people into buildings.

But these EFFING lunatics are. And I am losing my patience. When is the rest of America, the Islamic community, and the world going to lose patience with these jerkoffs?

I hope it is before we have a mushroom cloud over one of our cities, and we are forced to cover some country or countries with mushroom clouds.

So, yeah. I am sick and tired of this. And we only have a lifetime to go.

I have. It's time to reduce the world Muslim population, by a lot.

Did any US newspaper publish some of those cartoons ?
I believe that even New Zeland did...
