Let's start with the three worst ones - or most appropriate ones - depending on how you look at it.
Kurt Westergaard has drawn Mohammed with a bomb in his turban - thus showing a tie between Islam and terrorism. This drawing is the most controversial one - the one that is being shown in all the newspapers.
But which is the greater insult? A Danish artist indicating a connection between Islam and terrorism? Or those terrorists, who have killed thousands of civilians in New York, London, Bali, Madrid, Casablanca and Istanbul - and have done their dirty deeds in the name of Allah the Merciful?
If terrorism is an insult against Islam, why don't you fight terrorism instead of getting mad with a Danish artist, whose only crime is that he's pointing out your ostrich-like denial. Don't kill the messenger.
Hello Pakistan! Osama bin Laden has killed thousands in the holy name of Allah - and he's hiding in your backyard. If terrorism is incompatible with Islam, why don't you send a death squad after him - instead of an artist working in a far-away country you've never even heard about?
Rasmus Sand Høyer shows a furious Mohammed with two fearful women cowering behind him.
And so frigging what? Mohammed was a warrior, he had many wives (far more than the 4 allowed for all other Muslims), and to this day Muslim women wear "chador" and "burka", because Mohammed supposedly demands it. Read the Koran and the Hadith collections of Bukhari and Muslim, and you'll see that Høyer has made an accurate portrait.
The beard could be prettier.
Jens-Julius is rude - Mohammed tells the suicide bombers: "Stop, stop. We have run out of virgins."
Yeah, that's really insulting - especially if you're one of those psychos who believe that Allah the Merciful will reward murderers with 72 virgins in Heaven.
If Islam is a peaceful religion, then what's the problem? The real blasphemers are those who, on behalf of Allah, promise virgins to the killers. In New York, the last cries of the terrorists was "Allahu akbar", the same words they shouted as they cut the throats of the stewardesses.
Some imams out there are tempting wannabe killers with virgins in the sky, and these blasphemers are the ones, who are reducing Allah to a pimp.
It's a rather thought-provoking cartoon: "We have run out of virgins." From whence are they supposed to come, these virgins, which will serve the terrorists for all eternity? Are they created for the task? Or are they pious girls who as their eternal reward must be available for Mohammed Atta and his friends? Just imagine if the terrorists had seen Jens-Julius' drawing before September 11th. Maybe they would have had a second thought?
Added: Kurt Westergaard has been interviewed and he explains his reasons for drawing the bomb: The author of the bomb.

Comments:
Dear sir
It seems you know nothing about Islam and Mohamed,all Muslims condemned the terrorism and Usama Ben Laden acts and nothing in Islam promise murderers by virgins and all this naive lies. Please read about Islam before you stated falsehood. Do you think any reasonable person will beleive in a religion that encourage killing or murdering. Islam is to be free from from those who used Islam for political reasons or whatever. You also cannot understand the insult because the image of Mohamed in Muslim's eyes is holy and I want to know why to use this provocation unless one who wants to increase hatred and malice between Muslims and non-Muslims

> I want to know why to use this provocation
I'll try - although I believe I have already done so elsewhere.
First of all: The twelve drawings were published in a small Danish paper 4 months ago. It has never been intended for the 1,3 billion Muslims worldwide. Unfortunately some double-faced imams chose to take the discussion outside the Danish borders.
Without these imams, the whole thing would have been a local phenomenon and have been forgotten 4 months ago. If you have seen the cartoons and have been offended, then don't blame me, don't blame JyllandsPosten, but blame the imams who made the matter a global one.
The drawings are very mild - compared to what is being done regularly to our Prime Minister (often drawn as a caveman), our Queen (portrayed by several male actors) and indeed every famous or in-famous person or icon in the Western world. Make no mistake though - there are limits - for instance we have blasphemy and racism laws in Denmark.
A Danish author wanted to write a book about Mohammed - as he has already done with several other historical persons - and he found that he was unable to find an artist. Muslims have a reputation for extreme violence - I need only mention the case of Theo van Gogh - and the reactions to the 12 innocent drawings show that these fears were far from unfounded.
The paper JyllandsPosten asked 40 artists to give each their own interpretaion of Mohammed. Twelve of these artist replied with a drawing and JyllandsPosten printed them - along with an explanation, that you can't have a democratic society, where one community demands special treatment from everybody else.

I agree with all that has been written, and so far the cartoon has been shown to be true so how can people complain that it is offensive, when it is based on the truth!

Throught the blog, I have seen muslims and other ppl just abusing one another. The right way is to educate people of who we really are, and what islam really is. Many people just listen to rumors and put an idea about a releigon and the poeple. If there is a muslim terrorist, so does a christein, jews, ethiest, hindu and any other terrorist exists. So y comparing all muslims and islam to what those terrorists has done. So all this fight and whatsoever is useless and ridicuouls. And you know what, whoever mocks about anything, the best thing or way is to show him the true thing, and it is upon him/her to beleive or not, but not to go on fighting like animals. Grow up people. Releigon is a personal issue of every individual, do not mix it with culture, politics or god knows what.

yes, may be the islamic world has demonstrated its feelings in an excessive and bad way. but ı believe democracy also is the tolerance and this should not be one-sided. ıf a country behaves carefully and also minds the others' vulnerabilities, it would be better and therefore nobody would be hurt. I think Denmark is not very successful at this. and unfortunately, ı see that the reasons they bring to justify these cartoons are not so logical. ı hope this kind of abuses do not go on...

First of all, what is your ambition? To provoke muslims and cause a war between christians and muslims? It is obvious that you never read and you know NOTHING about muslims. Your foolish drawings proves this. Please respect other people's holly values. Never forget that you are not alone in the world.

Omer Mirap, the drawings were not not in your country. It was drawn by people in a free country. Complain if the violation was in your country. Why threatened with violence people? Do Muslims know no language except "violence" or "kill?"

If islam means peace, then why burn down embassies, churches and threaten to kill people. terrorists are holding Islam hostage and muslims are not trying to get it back. A terrorist once told be that Islam is not a peacefull religion and told me several stories of what he has seen or heard. I break muslim law at least once a week, I eat pork, but I am not a muslim. I also have "the" cartoon as my desktop. Muslims should stay out of countries that allow freedom of speech if they will not allow non-muslims to exerise those rights.
Me again, I was deeply offended when I saw people in the street of the middle-east cheering as the twin towers fell. I did not blow any buidings up, threaten to kill anyone or request an apology from that countries leader. Those people exerised freedom of speech however distastefull (to me) it may of been. Proud to be an american, love it or leave it.
Let's calculate European IQ.
Are all the terrorists Muslims?
ANSWER: ETA, IRA are not Muslim groups. If so;
If SOME of the terrorists groups are muslims, are ALL muslims terrorists?
ANSWER: No. If so;
If all muslims are not terrorists, can we draw insulting cartoons of islam in return of every terrorists' action and insult innocent muslims?
ANSWER: But we have freedom of speech.
Test Result: Low IQ

So was I. And the lying imam Abu Laban proved himself to be a low-life then, by saying that he didn't have any tears to shed for the Americans because he had shed so many tears for the Palestinians.
But if you go to the home page of Islamisk Trossamfund, you'll see that today Abu Laban has many tears to shed for rich companies, like Arla. (top banner)

Hi There !
I believe that the Danish Government has failed managing the crisis. Both the Government and the Paper Adnminitation behave as if they came from the Moon and can not somehow bring themselves to understand what is going on in the World.
Lots of love to all Danes !

It seems ironic to me in this whole situtation that muslims are responding to a cartoon of mohammed with a bomb....by using bombs and violence...Ironic isnt it?. I have to applaud those who did do peaceable protest.. I for one always believed that islam is not a violent religion as i have done readings of the koran, but its hard not to draw conclusions. All you see is chaos and violence....maybe if muslisms didnt respond to such things with violence, people wouldnt draw conclusions, but it is hard not too today. After seeing all these images, i have come to believe that it is today violent.
Also, i seem to remember many muslims cartoonists drawing our dying pope as a child and lampooning other parts of christianity. Also, i heard about muslim cartoons against the virgin mary. I guess it is alright for muslims to assault our religion....you dont see us burning down embassies whenever such a cartoon appears. The image of the trade centers burning and celebrations going on in the muslim world, beheading of innocent journalists, and "Down with america" is forever etched in my mind. Islam is held hostage by terrorism and it is a shame to see that. Maybe one day we can learn to just get along for all of our sakes

Hi ya there!
I'm from Indonesia, THE WORLD LARGEST POPULATION OF MUSLIM! and i lived in Malaysia for three years(ALSO A MUSLIM COUNTRY!) and i have to say that Islam is a non violance religion. Its true that certain group of people did lots of bad things in the name of Islam, but to look at the Islam concept and the Muslim people to be the same like those who did bad things is absolutely WRONG! I prefer to blame the individual rather than the religion.
But on the other hand, I also DISAGREE with those who bombed / burned / killed / hurted / banned / did anything bad to Danish or Western people ( since U.S also mentioned in some of the riots). I prefer the 'peace' protest. You dont have to hurt others to voice up your opinion. I also think it was stupid for what happened in Malaysia that they were saying protest and created problems to Denmark, Israel, and U.S (Man.. the cartoon was from Denmark, what the hell Israel and U.S. did??). I just think that all those people who create problems are STUPID! (again, its the PEOPLE NOT THE RELIGION!)
And as for my self, my opinion is that Denmark is a liberal country. When i saw the cartoons, i put my self as a Danish (bcoz it supposed to be read by Dannish), and i do not think that the cartoon offends me (Danish is a liberal country, thats the fact! and as a matter of fact, Danish are not so into religion). Danish people may take it 'easy'. Or eventhough perhaps some bad comments would raised, i'm sure protest would happen quitely n peacely, unlike the situation today....

hey!
see! i have seen all the cartoons and i found this one(with mohd's turbune in form of a bomb) a real insult to the religion. other's are not really insulting, however the muslim community is a lot conservative and religion-tied and thus they have a tendency to over react.
i am an indian (a secular country with 18% of muslim population) and follow hinduism.in india we have been having a lot of clashes with muslims.so i think i can give a justified comment on the cartoons.
first of all! a prophet is above any insult or criticism.the problem here is of a hurt ego. we all are facing the terror spread by terrorists. but its not fair to pose a muslim prophet a terrorist as these people, themselves dont have any idea of what islam says and believes in.
and if Danish is really a peaceloving state then i would reccommend a formal apology from the newspaper( internationally)
this is all what i haveto say.
MAY GOD BLESS ALL WITH PEACEFULL THOUGHTS THAT MAKES THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE TO LIVE IN !!!
AMEN

Can somebody explain where it says that it is mohamed ? It's not clear to me why people see that picture as being mohamed , is it because of the scripting on his (i'm not english so i don't know the exact word in english) hat ?
Ok now i found it... it has a context.
Because in the title of the article it gives a drawing of how he ight have looked.
When it came out i thoughted it was about the heat up going on in the middle-east. Nothing to do with terrorists. In fact i've seen several drawings like those in the past decade from earth in shape of a bomb, to local politicians to catholic imagery.
One thing that bothers me as a person and conflict with the basic human right when you get born: be free. There has been so much dialogue with muslims about not respecting their culture and how they are.
Cartoons have been in the western world for so many centuries and are a part of the western culture so why is their no understanding why we have such unimportant drawings.
Every culture has little cultures in those...
Not everybody can know all of them or what might shock persons.
It's the same problem with left wings against extreme right, the more you bring it up the more worse it will get. You just leave it alone and it will fade out, not fight it.
If they haven't brought it up, only 1 million people might have seen it ... now billion.
and more wins for extreme right

U were rambling on about the muslims being the terriorists,what do u call ur "DEAR DARLING" ,"BUSH" then ,the guys attacked Afghanistan and killed the innocents too,nobody had a problem then.
U know what if u really want to write something do your homework and know ur facts before rambling on whatever gibbrish comes in ur close to empty head.U have no right to comment on anybody`s religious beliefs.And by the way islam is not about voilence ,it is the most peaceful religion in the world.Just because of some extremists u cannot assume anything about this religion,and by the way do you only listen to terriorists and extremists,want to know about islam then read the islamic history and by the way EVERYTHING in our religion has some logic ,which unfortunately fools and idiots who have nothing to do but to ramble foolishly,cannot understand

dear all, i think islam no accept ever the terrorisim concept, but also there are a big different between terrorism ans self defence which muslims do in some countries such as palastine and part of iraq (not all cases in iraq ) because killing not guilty people is a very bad thing in our religion, but in all cases, inserting pics for prophet mohammed is a wrong action and increase the gap betwwen islam and west countries
and i want to ask the one who translate this pics ... if u see that usama ben laden do this and that and .. and ... etc. why didn't the artists draw pics with usama instead of prophet mohammed ...please if u really fair ..ask your self this .... because i am a muslim and have not any religion document told me that prophet mohammed ask us to kill peopele ever. and another request ..please try to read more about islam ..but not from cheap papers or internet ...but from trusted islamic sources in your country ...and if u are really fair we will have another conversation and u will be able to understand us ...
best regards, and thanks to all

Hi to all you peaceful bloggers out there,
I have the Mohammed with bomb on my desktop since I am amazed by the rage it inflamed in some countries. First of all, I would like to know what is written on the bomb/turban. I do not read arabic so please translate for me. Second of all, I don't find the bomb is hidden...it is very clear, and I even believe basically the bomb is a part of his head. So no terrorist for me but more like a prophet that is going to die very soon...what does the maker want to say here? Mohammed was a terrorist...? OR the Islam is dying as the West (read the U.S.) is demoralizing Muslims youth at the speed of light (read tele-vision). All interpretations are possible, what a great cartoon, it could have been a great start for a discussion. But, that I say as a white atheist with a university degree. Hope we can someday live and draw cartoons in peace together.

> sanderman First of all, I would like to know what is written on the bomb/turban
According to the BBC it's the Islamic creed.
> sanderman what a great cartoon, it could have been a great start for a discussion.
Many of the cartoons raise interesting points. For instance, when Mohammed tells the suicide bombers, "Stop, we have run out of virgins" - you might start asking questions like: Does Allah promise the terrorist 72 virgins in the Quran? Why would Allah the all-Merciful reward terrorists? Who is it that makes these promises on behalf of Allah? Where do the virgins come from? Have Allah created them for the purpose? What happens when you get tired of them after a few trillion years? Can they become tired of you? etc. etc.
Sadly, fundamentalists won't allow these kinds of discussions.

Here is my question: If you are so convinced that your religion is the "answer" and you are devout to Allah and Mohammed, then why are you worried about a stupid cartoon? Why do you need such earthy, tangible demonstrations of your faith? I don't get that. Jesus Christ was ridiculed and tortured and killed. Yet he still believed in the beauty of humanity. And we as Christians strive to live as he did: loving one-another, living in peace, forgiveness and tolerance. God and Christ dont expect that we are all perfect, but that we 'try' every day to live up to his will. Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. I have FAITH. I don't care what you may say about my religion. I have FAITH. Why can't you? This is what I do not understand about the Muslim faith. I for one, as a woman, would NEVER want to be a Muslim. I believe that God loves me and forgives me and will welcome me into heaven with all my sins and faults because God loves us.
Oh my God you are here.
Oh my God we are here.
You are where we are always, and always you love us.
I think all Muslims need to step back, take a deep breath and stop this insane jihad. If you truly dont want to convert the world to your ways, then get over yourselves and move on. Let the rest of us live in peace.

Listen, it is very hypocrtical when Muslim countries today disrespect others religious beliefs. In Northern Cyprus the Turks deface images of saints and use churches as stables. which is worse. respect gets respect. should christians riot when muslims are disarespectful. remember in afghanistan, when they blew up one of the oldest buddhist works of art carved on the side of a mountain.

I remember it well. And I don't recall any Muslim outrage at that time!!
The crazy part is that Muslims are also destroying Muslim holy places. Sounds unbelievable? Well, the Wahhabists are a rather new sect, who don't allow any kind of depictions or idols.
So the Saudis have "leveled the "Jannat al-Baqi" or "Heavenly Orchard" at Medina that included graves of the Prophet Muhammad's son Ibrahim, as well as numerous of the Prophet's relatives and original companions."

...and don't forget, that the three cartoons on this page are the "worst" ones.
That's why protesters in Europe and USA are doing their best to prevent publication - with demonstrations, law suits and death threats. Nobody must see how innocuous the cartoons really are.
In the mean time the imams are free to spread their own fake Mohammed cartoons on BBC and al-Jazeera.

Hi there, I believe everyone entitled to their opinion, freedom of speech does exist. However, there are people who used it in abusive way and claimed that their opinion is a fact. I can have an opinion that your mom is a whore and your dad is a cock sucker , but it's not true, it's not a fact.
These cartoons and also this blog of yours are opinions, you can say whatever you want to say, for me, it's just gonna be your opinion, and I think everybody has to be brave to speak their mind, no matter what it is. BUT ... ! Not everybody can agree with me, to take all of these as just opinions. Lots of people will find some opinions are offended, big time. Especially moslems, when it comes to their faith.
My OPINION about this blog and these cartoons is that, they shouldn't have been published, because these such things can create chaos, and yeah ... duh it happened already, and will be used and strecht (oh yeah that happened too), for others for their advantages. To create war, and hatred between moslems and non moslems.
I am a moslem, I went to 8 years islamic education, and never they thought me to kill and bomb people.
If they did, if indeed in Islam, in the Koran it teachs you to be terorist, then how come not all the moslems in the world become terorist, how come me and my whole family, every moslem that I know in my country, Indonesia (the largest moslem population in the world) are not terorist? Most of the moslem even condemned terorist and never agree with the whole ideas.
So, explain to me why you think the Islam, the Koran, Mohammad, are close to terorism?
Nazi had killed 7 million jews, and they are not moslem.
Terorist often justified what they did with their religion, in the name of Allah, but, that's not true, they didn't do it for the religion, they did it for other purposes, their own purposes, mainly political purposes.
So, that's all I have to say, you can say whatever you want to say, but don't be so sure and claim it as facts.

These cartoons are creation of a wierd and a sick mind. Wierd because they depict thinking beyond facts of a religion as it is known to be peaceful. Sick because deliberatley or not they have hurt a lot of peaceful Muslims who would never take to streets and are contibuting to the so called western world more than many so called westerners. These so called free for speech people in west prefer to do to all sorts of wrong things in the name of freedom for speech and expression. That hardly is civilisation.

In reality he is nothing else but an evil and infamous. Perhpas it was in this state of intoxocation he drew these cartoons up. Thats why they are so removed from the truth.

Just a reminder from history. How many counries from west had set up colonies in other countries. It was the Great British, the French, the Dutch, the Portugese, the Italians, the Spanish who had set these colonies up in the past. It is the USA now who is is behaving as a colonial power.
Invariably these powers looted and plundered those coutnries for centuries before leaving them. Locals were oppressed. When these powers left those colonies they left the stooges behind them.
Those who detest the so called colonial powers or the western world do for a reason. Even today colonialism goes on. It is more of an economic colonialism and use of modern war fare. Many of the people you see on streets are illitarte in poor countires where governments have not broken the shackles of colonialism.
These countries might be free but their populaion is not free from the shackles of uneducated, hungry and poor population.
But there is a reason why they respond to provcations from the so called educated, rich and well fed nations. These powers use the 'freedom of speech' and 'democracy is power' as an excuse. These excuses should not be a reason to hurt emotions of these innocent people who hold relgion as a great strength. Also they respect those who enlightened them with this strenght. They not only hold Muhammad (Peace be upon him) as a most respectful but also more than 100000 other prohets that have come to this world including Jesus Christ.
Now I think the Cartoonist is educated but not enlightened enough to know these complex issues.
Power of pen and press is great and should never be abused.
What else can one expect from a non serious cartoonist who has abused this power and led to more gap between the two civilisations rather than bridging it?
These impressions are from an educated but not sure an enlghtened muslim.

I'm glad you said that. In fact Spain and Portugal were Muslim colonies from 711 to 1492.
People in Spain have celebrated their freedom from "La Mahoma" for almost 400 years, but now the threats of terrorism are putting an end to old traditions: Spain Caves - Cancels Festival

Muslims have been fould by Mohammed thinking that he was a profet but no profet of God would have live the unmoral life he lived with lots of women and rape of a minor, or have tought the way of war and discrimination.

Everything else is the work of the devil.

Its very easy to pick comments and use individual statements in isolation.
Fact is that Muslims brought civilisation to Spain and many other countries and many scholars were responsible for ending atrocities committed by non believers and then left them in safe hands.
As for Prophet and His wives.. he married them for a reason of good and not for the lust as it happens in the so called free world. Where highest rates of crime are sexual offences and alcohol induced intoxication leading to abberration of human ethics.
He married those who were in need, destitute, orphan and poor. It is only wierd mind they way think and portray the HELPER and THE SAVIOUR. HE brought an end to worship of Idols and brought supoorted women for freedom.
It is mazing how muslims on this Blog try and convince with logic and the others who have no argument simply use a language which is unbecoming of civilised world.

History tells us that small men with small actions can cause long term clash of civilisations and wars
This Kurt Westergaard we should hope is not that small man with a small action that would lead to a long term war.
It is worrisome some very educated men are sitting behind computers with hate brewing against muslims.
By expressing hate against muslims these educated westerners from free world are equalling actions of illiterate men on streets who are angry at one small mans action.

Many Muslims and Christians have never read the Koran. Here are selected verses:
8:39 And fight [unbelievers] on until there is no more tumult or oppression, and there prevail justice and faith in God altogether and everywhere.
9:5 But when the forbidden months are past, then fight and slay the Pagans wherever ye find them, and seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem (of war); but if they repent, and establish regular prayers and practice regular charity, then open the way for them: For Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
9:29 Fight those who believe not in God nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by God and His Apostle, nor acknowledge the Religion of Truth, (even if hey are) of the People of the Book until the pay the Jizya [tax on non-Muslims] with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued.
9:123 Section 16. O ye who believe! Fight the Unbelievers who gird you about, and let them find firmness in you: And know that Allah is with those who fear Him.
47:4-6 Therefore, when ye meet the unbelievers (in fight), smite at their necks; at length, when ye have thoroughly subdued them, bind a bond firmly (on them): thereafter (is the time for) either generosity of ransom: until the war lays down its burdens. Thus (are ye commanded) … But those who are slain in the way of God, -- He will never let their deeds be lost. 5 Soon will He guide them and improve their condition, 6 and admit them to the Garden [Paradise] which He has announced for them.

I am Ajay from India.I am a Hindu person. I condemn whatever riots have been done by the muslim people, but sometimes I think, what else they can do. God can never be a topic of fun, you have many subjects to draw cartoons, why do you want to use god. It seems the western world thinks that all Muslim people are terrorists, since they are depicted that way by the media, a wrong message is passed to people.
dear sir!
i am a muslim from pakistan, and as a muslim, i have a duty to clarify the misunderstandings you have abt Islam and our Prophet(PBUH)
firstly, about the promise of virgins. Allah has promised that those who do "jihad" will be rewarded with virgins in the heaven. now, to the west, jihad means terrorism, while actually it isnt!
Jihad literally means to exert utmost effort, to strive, struggle. this can also include war against unbelievers, but more than that it signifies war within oneself, to remain on the right track, fight the evil from within and not let evil conquer one's heart.This also includes preaching abt Islam and acquiring education. it is this form of jihad that Islam stresses upon more. as for fighting the unbelievers, that jihad is not meant to conquer land or gaining booty, but is meant to end agression. in the Quran, Allah says:
"Fight in the cause of Allah those who fight you but DO NOT TRANSGRESS LIMITS!!!(2:190)
at the battle of Badr, the Holy Prophet(PBUH) said:
"You shall not be the first to attack. You shshall not permit personal hate or revenge sway your hearts while fighting.You shall not raise your arms against anyone who is not a party to the fight.You will spare the old and sick.You shall protect women and children from injury."
at the battle of Uhad, he had said:
"you arent fighting for neither land nor wealth nor bloodshed but merely to defend the word of Allahj and to keep high the banner of truth."
At the battle of Khyber when some of his followers forcibly took the animals and fruit trees of the Jews, he became angry and said:
"Allah hasnt permitted you to enter in the houses of the people of the Book, except with their permission, or to torture their women, or to eat their fruits, when they have fulfilled their terms with you."
so, how can you blame our Prophet(PBUH) as a terrorist when he laid down such just rules for warfare? the people who portray the last form of Jihad as the true JIhad are to blame and Not our Holy PRophet(PBUH).He even discouraged keeping of slaves. He even married the female captives of war and laid the terms that if anyone did anything wrong, as a compensation, he must free a slave.
Islam teaches peace and tolerace as the foremost things. Unfortunately, many have forgotten these things while demostrating against the caricatures.
Also, Islam teaches us to respect others' religious beliefs, and we also consider the biblical prophets as prophets of Allah. thus, if Muslims draw cartoons of of Noah or Ezekiel or Jeremiah or Jesus, that is equated as a blasphemy and is severely punishable, just as is drawing Allah or Prophet MUhammad(PBUH). and as many westerners justify these cartoons by saying that muslim countries also draw cartoons of the Holocaust, these cartoons are not about any person in specific, unlike those published by the Jyllands-Posten, which portray a person who is rated NO.1 by Michael Hart!
hope your misunderstandings are clarified now, or else, feel fre to caontact me!

You have done a good job of revealing the drawings that everybody is trying to hide, supposedly to avoid "offending islam" but actually because they are afraid for their lives. Kudos!
I do have a problem with your interepretations, though - you accurately mentioned terrorism in many countries, but what about Israel? Hundreds of Israelis are murdered by terrorists each year, and many people in the world still think that "it is not the same thing". Until people realize that any type of terrorism is just as bad as the other, even if the murdered person is an Israeli Jew, nothing will change and the violence cannot be stopped.

I don't think it was Kurt Westergaard's intention to call Mohammed a terrorist. He was probably pointing out that many terrorists around the world use the Koran to justify their atrocities.
Recently Muslims were demonstrating in London, carrying signs saying "Europe you will pay, your 9/11 is on the way", "7/7 is on its way", "Butcher those who mock Islam", "Slay those who insult Islam", "Behead those who insult Islam", and "Kill those who insult Islam".
Danish television interviewed an English imam - living of English welfare and under English protection - who pronounced a death sentence on all 12 artists. Does the schmuck even realize that Arne Sørensen has made a self-portrait? Or that Bob Katzenelson has drawn Kåre Bluitgen? Or that Lars Refn has drawn a young immigrant writing "Jyllands-Posten's journalists are a bunch of reactionary provocateurs" on a black board?
It is as if all over the world, Muslims are anxious to prove that the cartoons were not parodies at all:

> Saad Imran Also, Islam teaches us to respect others' religious beliefs,
So why were the ancient Buddha statues in Bamyan destroyed? I didn't see a Muslim uproar at that time.

why do u guys bother about things written here? i believe you guys read the 'satanic drawings' on the top left of this blogger. so, for sure, these drawings are made by satans and commented by satans.
We, as Muslims, certainly cannot understand the reasoning behind these drawings because they were drawn by satans. Only satans understand the rationale behind the drawings.

If I, with a Christian background, would see cartoons, making a fool of Jesus, I would not be pleased with it, but hey, I am not going to curse my fellow citizens, and that's the difference in how civilized one has become. Apparently a lot of Muslims have to go a looong way. Good luck!

Is not it we are all afraid to speak something freely on islam.
I have seen my parrents training me to be kind and not to hurt any living being in my childhood.
i have also seen a muslim father teaching the art of killing "Halal" to his young seven (07) year old daughter, while the bird (the father shot) was treambling with deadly pain.
how u expect a better world with the idea?? this is what the cartoon is all about, not Mohammad, but you, fundamentalists have killed Mohammad 100 times.
i do not understand islam, but i feel if a man is having humanity, he is a better islam. so learn to be tollerant, kind and loving.
I have seen my parrents training me to be kind and not to hurt any living being in my childhood.

First of all... It's pretty lame that people will run around killing others just because of a cartoon. Fine it depicts the Muhammed as a terrorist - Who cares! Its a cartoon right? Secondly, I do understand the offense taken by the Muslim culture - it goes against the ideals of their beliefs.
I believe that both sides are a bit at fault here... we have to understand that the world is getting smaller and smaller and that the way of one culture will offend that of another - we must all try to respect other cultures beliefs but at the same if one is offended we have to try and understand without running around killing each other.
The real problem here is religion. People love to claim how religion is such a good thing for people... not really - when you look at history and current events - religion pits culture against culture - "one God is better than the other." Its madness. So now you have divisons such as in Nigeria where people are killing others for their beliefs - the same gahd damned beliefs that teach us that killing is bad.
You are all hypocrits and fools.

"Excuse me mister,
what do you think of yourself ,u know nothing about islam and by saying that those ppl drawing those pics waz not really that offensive then u are terribly mistaken.
U were rambling on about the muslims being the terriorists,what do u call ur "DEAR DARLING" ,"BUSH" then ,the guys attacked Afghanistan and killed the innocents too,nobody had a problem then.
U know what if u really want to write something do your homework and know ur facts before rambling on whatever gibbrish comes in ur close to empty head.U have no right to comment on anybody`s religious beliefs.And by the way islam is not about voilence ,it is the most peaceful religion in the world.Just because of some extremists u cannot assume anything about this religion,and by the way do you only listen to terriorists and extremists,want to know about islam then read the islamic history and by the way EVERYTHING in our religion has some logic ,which unfortunately fools and idiots who have nothing to do but to ramble foolishly,cannot understand"
I say its quite a violent tone for someone that claims not to be violent, I hate come to dislike muslims and all they do, some of my family member have been injured in one of their cowardly attacks, and then when they run back to their desert caves we're supposed to just say "well there might be some innocent people so let's back of" well that doesn't cut it I say lets tracks all of them down and blow their brains (as far as they have any) out.
I mean no disrespect to any, that are honoustly still under the false impression that Islam is a religion instead of a terror front.

Why does there seem to be two teams that are muslims. Team A does whatever they want (killing, bombing, burning, kidnapping) and team B, that complains when the rest of the world gets pissed off with team A. We all know that both teams depend on each other, but nobody ever says it. Until islam denounces terrorism, there should be no apologies to anyone. As for the violent response to these cartoons, muslims are showing themselves in their true light. Lets see some protests against all these bad people that are pretnding to muslims, but are really terrorist.
my fellow Human beings all, re: anger, violence, insult, fatwa, and killing, because of cartoons, images, beliefs....
The deepest truth is that we are born, all of us, with a free will to choose our thoughts and our actions. We, each of us, choose. We choose what we believe. One person chooses Islam to believe. Another person chooses Catholic, another chooses Shia, another chooses Methodist, another chooses Sunni, and another chooses 'not to choose' a religious belief. So much choosing...based on what? Birthplace? Ancestry? Truth? Facts? Faith? Need? or Logic? Every religious book, leader or prophet will tell you they are the only true belief/faith. How can a human mind choose the real true one? Here is the difficult truth. What a person believes to be true(reality), may only be a learned belief or faith. Anyone can say they know their religion is true, (and all others an insult to truth), but no person has ever proved with facts that their beliefs about spiritual existence are real. The real crime is that people are killed, because someone chooses to believe they have the truth.

I am from Turkey, and I am a atheist. The drawers of these cartoons want a war between muslims and christians. Of course they take command from someone (who earns money from that war?)
Further to that some terrorism groups are muslim, that is true. But lets think, adolf hitler is a terrorist, isnt he? Of course, he is murderer of billions people. Can you blame Christ for those killings. You can't, isn't you?
I hate all of regions. Because they are enemy of humanity and civilization. But there is a injustice, and I hate injustice. I have writing this article only that reason.

I am a christian and I too was offended by the drawings of mohammed. It's blasphemous, no matter how you put it, even if it's not against your own religion. Given, there are extremists who resort to violence, but that is not the majority of muslims. Islam is a peaceful religion, and most extremists are breaking Islamic law when they use violence.There are Christian terrorists too, who bomb abortion clinics because it's against their religion, but we all know that is a very small group, and it does not represent all Christians. It doesn't matter how you justify it, they would not be cartoons if they were not meant to be offensive. Feel free to discuss how you feel about Islam privately, but don't publish it in a newspaper. If a middle eastern newspaper had published cartoons about Jesus being a terrorist, Christians would be extremely offended. We can't blame muslims for being offended, neither can we blame them all for the actions of a few.

I am an Indonesian and Catholic
For those who think that the artist of this cartoon is an idiot or stupid.... Think about how this artist gets the idea of this cartoon. He gets this idea, just like other people, from what the Terrorists have done recently in our world.
First I want to point out that Islamic teaching is not violent. It is however has been misrepresented to the public thus people look at it differently. I recently has done a research about Saladin which surprises me that most books states that he is a merciful leader who likes to help others.!!!
I have friends who are Muslims and they are nice to me and we have no conflict whatsoever.
However, there are also Muslims who take their teachings in a different way or may be too seriously and carry it out violently. For example, the terrorists who are Muslims themselves have strict Muslims teachings and yet have impacted our world with violence and have given bad pictures to public about the Muslim teachings.
The same in Indonesia. There are Muslim extremists who destroy church and embassies and they influence other Muslims that lack education to join their forces and do what they are doing. This really saddened me and I know this is not what Muslim teaching is all about.
I just hope that this would end soon and we can see clearly who the bad guy is.

This is very interesting what you are considering here, I do not belong to any of the size, but I want to say something. I have to apple tree, I notice that most of the fruit from one thee are good, though some time I notice worm in some of the apples, now the other tree, has good apples, but I notice a greater amount of them vs. the other tree have worms, I might conclude that something happen with that tree, because it is giving me more bad fruit than the other, I have to go to the root, may be the problem is there. The same is with religions, one great prophet said: "By their fruitages will recognize those men". What I am trying to say is that, though all religions can, and have terrorist, Why it the fact that the great majority are muslims? I think there most be somthing wrong in the way thier leaders are teaching the people or there most be something wrong in their beleives...

I wonder...
if I had not grown up in denmark (I was born here) but had lived my life in a warzone, would I understand the hatered better ? I propably would...I can understand people in the middle east getting pissed by having their country invaded, their families shattered and killed-
and I can see those cartoons being a perfect media stunt for extremists in every culture.
Denmark is not a homogenic tribe. In ´ethnic´ danish popularity, we have many diferent political and ethic lifestyles represented. Unfortunately, democracy (peace be upon it...) has been couped by extremists. War ? not in my name. Disrespect ? terrorism? not in my name. In yours ? Let he who is innocent throw the first rock. And let the rest of us learn from each others. First lession : please tell me how to reach extremists in any culture, and how to make them stop throwing gasoline on the fire...

you know what i think? i think that if the muslims cant take a joke then they are a bunch of pussies. because there are so many insulting things to everyone but we dont jump on a plane and kill 5,000 people just because somebody made fun of us. but if the terrorist over react because some stupid reporter or cartoonist made a bad report on them then they dont need to know about all the stuff kids and adults at school and work talk and draw about them or else we'd all be dead and if they scuicide bomb us enough theyll all die to they need to just chill the hell out, youll live longer.

To those who deceive westerner by saying Islam is Peaceful Religion and no killing or hate, I say to you please Go and read your Quran first and understand it then you can come back and say the trouth. Here are some verses from the Quran, go and check them.
( And fight them until there is no more Fitnah, " disbelief and polytheism, i.e., worshepping others besides Allah" and the religion "worship" will all be for Allah Alone [in the whole of the world]. But if they cease "worshiping others besides Allah", then certainly, Allah is All-Seer of what they do.)"SURAH 8:39, The NOBLE QURAN".
In other words, this verse says, " fight those who reject islam until all the worship is for Allah alone." The Quran also says Muslims must not be friends with Christians or Jews.
( Take not Jews and Christians as AULIYAA " Friends, protectors,helpers", they are but AULIYAA of of each other. And if any amongst you takes them as AULIYAA, then surely he is one of them.)SURAH 5:51 and on and on.....
Also I suggest to every one to read this Book: ( ISLAM AND TERRORISM) by Mark A. Gabriel, PH.D. a former professopr of islam history at Al-Azhar University in Egypt.Published by Charisma House.

Allah will bring us together in the judgement day.now i cant do anything to Mr. Kurt Westergaard.i jst wait for that day when Allah will punish him for his rubish work.
The drawing is an absoloute disgrace, and of course it will offend the millions of Muslims worldwide. The prophet Muhammad is someone who Muslims follow his actions. Those who call Muslims, terrorists, are those who only listen to the media. While the media is dubbing Muslims as terrorists, why not actually read the Qur'an (the book which the Muslim faith revolves around) and try to find where it agrees with these suidcide bombings. Islam is a peaceful religion, while a select few are trying to change it (I am talking about the extremists) These extremeists who call themselves muslims are an utter embarrasment as they are not following their religion at all, but giving it a worse name every day. In this world, there are of course a handful of people who do need psychological help - as to become a suicide bomber has to be one of the worst things a person can do. Bu everyone has to remember that these people are a select few and there is no way these people represent our religion.

Dear All,
I support Danish newspaper work. If Islam is that generous, it should show patient enough, I think all this controversy is created by Muslim countries Governments, had they would have down played this, nothing would have happened.
Means only Muslims themselves are responsible for what other communities are pointing them to.
If not so why can I not recall a single incident by any Religious head (of course other then Muslims) to call for holy war, so call Jihad!
Why only Muslims feel pride in blowing them selves off and killing other innocent people.
Well to me either there is serious flaw in Islam or these Jihadies are interpreting it wrongly.
But whatever the case, I would not go in details, only Muslims are responsible for it and if its leaders wouldn't change this perception, I think then may be in later half of my life I would see a serious clash of civilizations.
Well seriously I don't want of hurt any body’s feelings but I do feel Muslims have to think seriously about this.

Muhammed Cartoons - Danish cartoonist Kurt Westergaard would do it again!
Danish cartoon artist Kurt Westergaard, who drew the now world famous Muhammed with bomb in turban cartoon appeared on Danish national TV 24/9 in dialogue with one of the Imams who went to set the Mid-East on fire with the Jyllands Posten and the false cartoons.
It's a boost to moral to see how subtly but strongly the 71 year old cartoonist defends his turf,until his Muslim counterpart feels to sick with anger to continue the debate. Full transcript of the whole program in English. With images.

Thanks for the information, but unfortunately your link doesn't work. :(
I have just returned from a vacation so I haven't followed the debate. As I understand it, the Islamist was Kasem Said Ahmad, who is not an imam, but who is (sometimes) a spokesman for the Danish Islamic Community and chairman of the Danish Islamic Burial-fund.

Reasonable people were led by one of the most insane people in the history of the world. Adolph Hitler. They didn't follow him because they were very stupid. They followed him because he convinced them to believe in his ideals and corrupted an entire country to follow even his most hiedeous orders. So, reasonable or not, I believe that a person who believes in something and has the encouragement of another to carry out vicious attacks on others, muslim or not they do exist. Hitler wanted to completely erradicate a race of people he felt were inferior to his race. The same is going on with the terrorists. They want to erradicate an entire group of people because they are "inferior" to them....
Please help me identify the difference......

Well now, lets talk a little about violance… we can let history be the judge of the last hundred years of violance… Lets start with world war I who started that? Was it Muslims who committed mass murder and who used biological weapons on cities and towns and killed hundreds of millions of people?? Was it Muslims or your own democratic diplomacies and inventions?? Ok lets go on to WWII now…who killed millions of civilians in Europe and Asia who invaded Asian countries for economic gain under the umbrella of spreading democracy? And who used the A-Bomb on Japan twice, should I also mention that it was the first time it was used, so don’t call Muslims terrorist because we refuse to be lay down our arms in front of the lying and untruthful west which steels our wealth and then offers us crumbs and expects us to be grateful. And of course if you don’t respect your prophets or religion, it doesn’t mean that we must be as disrespectful as you are…it is true that we may get violent protecting our religion, but history proved that you get ultra violent protecting your economic wealth, and the future will prove that once your economies fall because of energy crisis’s, you will take your democratic masks of again in your hunt for world dominance… and the real terrorists will stand up...again!

Oh mankind; listen well. I may not be with you much longer, the weak among you feed them on what you eat, dress them as you are dressed. You will meet your GOD and he will call you to account for your action. Let those who are present warn those who are absent. You are all descendent from Adam and the best among you is he who most regards GOD. Think deeply
