While the US denouncing the cartoons pissed me off at first, it was actually a smart move.

No other country in the world has close to 200,000 troops right in the middle east. They're pissed at us for kicking out a genocidal maniac. Imagine how pissed they'd be for insulting Muhammed.

The US will not step into this one unless attacked.

sounds good to me, time to get a little "respect"

No matter what the majority of Americans may feel about the situtation, the state department has no choice but to remain neutual in the matter otherwise it would complicate things in Iraq and Afghanistan. If they were to support the publishing of the cartoons, we would lose local support in Iraq and Afghanistan. If we side against publishing the cartoons we lose Danish support, possibly others. At this point there is nothing to gain politically by siding with one or the other... It's best to remain neutral....

This one's my favorite

Hey...since they don't have a picture or drawing of Mohammed...how do they know the guy in the cartoons is him? Are they all het up about nuthin'?

Also, on the "out of virgins" cartoon, I thought all the peace-loving Islamicists were against suicide bombing of innocents... so why would they be P.O.'d at that one? Shouldn't they be supporting/applauding that one?

I totally agree, at least if WW2 flight sim community is any indictation. I find your State Dept's position baffling, in the context of your Executive's policy regarding the "Global Struggle Against Violent Extremism, or whatever it's called. Here is a perfect example of western freedom against violent extremism. I wonder if the State Dept didn't consult with Bush before stating it's position.

I think it'd be easier to achieve by pouring pig fat on the mosques.

I stand with the Danes and Europe on this one.......dang that hurt!! (j/k!!

)

I dont really see the big deal over those cartoons, they are just cartoons after all. Those people are getting all worked up over cartoons, yet it is acceptable for hostages to be taken, then beheaded. Suicide bombers kill Muslim children while trying to kill Americans.

The Western nations need to stand as one on this issue imo. Who do the Muslims think they are that they can tell other countries what cartoons are acceptable and what ones arent?
