#10  In the autonomous Somali region of Puntland, . . . . . . . .

I wonder if they were actually pissed off at the refereeing in the Super Bowl.

#8  This from Instapindit.
ANOTHER UPDATE: Reader Tamara Mady emails:
Coming from an all Muslim family, I'm forced to listen to the sense of perceived injustice of Muslims concerning the depiction of their revered prophet. It's quite sickening.
I tell my family that that's just how things work in a free society: while I don't agree that the newspaper should have done something so culturally insensitive, they do have the right to do that, and attempting to make Danish society pay as a whole for it is utterly ridiculous.
It doesn't matter, I'm told. It literally means nothing to them, because in their world, everything should revolve around them and their culture, and God made the world for Muslim Arabs to control.
And this is the kind of mindset the Danish people are contending with

sums it up very nicely. They don't want to co-exist peacfully, they want CONTROL.

#7  Afghan President Hamid Karzai reiterated his condemnation of the cartoons and called on western nations to take "a strong measure" to ensure such cartoons do not appear again. "It's not good for anybody," he told CNN.

On the contrary. It's quite good that the world sees just how restrictive and lopsided Islam's worldview is. More cartoons, please. More publications of them and dispersal on the internet. More seething and more trampling, please. More Islamist insanity until this world gets fed up and finally takes some action against these violent wingnuts.

#6  .... officials in Lebanon have now confirmed that a demonstrator died on Sunday after jumping from the third floor of the Danish embassy in Beirut to escape a fire. Could we get his name please? He seems like a good candidate for the 2006 Darwin awards.

#4  "They want to test our feelings," protester Mawli Abdul Qahar Abu Israra told the BBC. "They want to know whether Muslims are extremists or not. Death to them and to their newspapers," he said.
