Graven Images

Islamists recently got their panties in a bunch over a Danish editorial cartoonist at the Jyllands-Posten who had the absolute GALL! to publish an image of Mohamed. This is forbidden and the Islamists won an apology from the newspaper's publisher. Zombietime has compiled a collection of Images of Mohamed that have been published through the ages with nary a peep from the Islamists. They are getting a lot of traffic so there are two sites:

Main server
Fallback server

Lest we not forget, the west does not have a monopoly on cartoonists. Here are a few Islamist cartoons One example:

The cartoon above, from Arab News (April 10, 2002), shows Ariel Sharon wielding a swastika-shaped axe to chop up Palestinian children. Arab News is a Saudi-based English language daily which is supposedly one of the Arab world’s more moderate papers.

There is supposed to be a copy of the Jyllands-Posten cartoons here but their server is swamped and the site is unresponsive. Check back in a few days perhaps after the dust settles... Posted by DaveH at February 1, 2006 7:34 PM
