Sep. 25th, 2006 07:48 pmThe report said the [Iraque] war and the insurgency are the main recruiting vehicles for new Islamic extremists. - Holy cow, they need an INTELLIGENCE REPORT to come to this totally obvious conclusion, based on a development that everyone with three functional brain cells and a basic knowledge of human psychology could see coming light years ahead???

Worth a death threat? You bet.
I don't distribute them because they are good, but because I think that this is a crucial point at which we have to stand up and declare our POV to religious followers who think that everyone should do exactly as they want all around this world. (If this were a debate over crucifixes and religios rights, I'd say the same. Stop extremism. Start thinking. Start putting a foot on things that demolish the above mentioned rights. We have a secular world based on humanism, and we want to keep that.)
P.S. More and more newspapers are printing at least some of the caricatures (Italy, Austria, France, Germany)...good thing.
P.P.S. Even if the Danish newspaper made it solely for provocation, ít has become a test now of the state of the world...
