the natives are restless again.....
it seems that our Muslim brethren are in a tizzy over some Danes having had the audacity to A: depict Mohamed graphically. and B: not necessarily in a flattering manner.

said cartoons can be found here: http://www.di2.nu/files/Muhammed_Cartoons_Jyllands_Posten.html

news story is on Yahoo today: http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20060127/wl_mideast_afp/iraqdenmarknorway

and they wonder why Muslim "civilization" (to use a term loosely) froze back in the middle ages.....

there is a fundamental conflict between our society and theirs, and it's not going to go away anytime soon.

You have a religion that blows up some ancient statues of Buddha dating back to about 300 AD (remember the giant Buddha staues that the Talibahn blew up?) but who get easily offended when some dumb cartoons are printed maligning one of their prophets?

If I was a true bastid, I would say something like: Why don't those people crawwl back into their caves and fling shit at each other to keep themselves entertained and leave the rest of us *alone*, but I'm too nice of a guy to ever write anything like that, right?
