Another tasteless cartoon



Yesss. Sums it up really. The sorts of folks who get their knickers in a knot over a cartoon are probably the same ones who behead hostages in Iraq.
Izzie can understand why people could find those Danish drawings offensive but the best remedy is to publish your own cartoons like this one

to get the point across rather than going on murderous rampages

Translation of above cartoon and some hairy scary comments

More cute cartoons

Tillykke, Jyllands! Glad to see they´re not backing down. Not that it´ll get the messagge across some very thick turbans eyeclaps, but it´s enough if it reminds everyone ELSE the difference. Where do you find such good stuff?

Izzie got a tip off for the first from our favorite radio station. They did an interview with a local cartoonist. Not Leunig but still pretty snarky. So we consulted the Oracle of Google to get the piccie he was talking about.

The other is the source of lots of juicy morsels - an lj community Political Cartoons (http://community.livejournal.com/politicartoons/)
Here is a sample - not related but very cute
