#1 the college has called a rare Court of Discipline to decide how the student should be brought to account for calling Mohammed a violent pedophile, which is the truth.

What's that old saying about hell and handbaskets?

#3 So... shall we set up a pool on when the Clare College administration will roll over, apologise extravagantly and promise to severely discipline any student who breaths any criticism against Islam?
Put me in the pool for...oh, Wednesday PM.
After all, it is sooooooo much more important to be sensitive, than to actually maintain a pretense of intellectual inquiry. Look at how speedily our news orgs rplled over on this issue.

#5 The high street in Cambridge has a McDonald's with a wonderful design theme; a Regency folly. Though I expect it does not serve a bacon double cheeseburger for fear of offending the deen of the Masters.

#6 The cartoon was reprinted in Clare College's student magazine in a special edition on religious satire. The 19-year-old student who printed the cartoon has since gone into hiding and the college has called a rare Court of Discipline to decide how the student should be brought to account.

WRONG ACTION The student should be protected by Campus police 24-7 and any complaibers investigated THOROUGHLY.

#7 The 19-year-old student who printed the cartoon has since gone into hiding

Why? Islam means "peace", right?

#8 Mr Arain also praised the quick action of Clare College in condemning the publication

Any "Court of Discipline" should follow a due process.

"Clareification" is a weekly student spoof mag, including "Clareifornication", and the cartoons & comments are likely to be consistent with its normal format & content.

Why is a certain "religion" seething about a non-issue, as usual?

#9 "Why is a certain "religion" seething about a non-issue, as usual?"

Because they can... it really must be awful, to be so skinless in a sand-paper world!

#10 Wasn't it Stalin who said, "Create as much trouble as you can, a divided people are easy to conquer?"

#11 Instead of defending against these types folks like Asim Mumtaz should be made truly afraid.

#12 How come: British Muslims live in a police state, but British infidels are the ones being trained to keep their mouths shut?

#13 I guess the only Englishmen who are worth a tinker's damn came here 200 years ago.

#14 Yup, those Europeans with the get-up-and-go got up and went a long time ago.
