Cartoon Clash of Civilizations

Cartoons - "Offense Level" raised
Anyway, we are now on....
HIGH

HIGHLY OFFENDED

....so watch out.

There's been trouble over Israel, Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran, Syria, Libya, women's rights, Indonesia, Saudi Arabia, terrorism, Darfur, oil, and breaking up the Caliphate.**

But 12 cartoons is the ultimate trigger?

The Religious Policeman is comedy gold on what's become a serious issue and a historical footnote of our age.

**Can't forget Lebanon, Crusades, keeping our troops near the Holy Mosques, Land Between the Two Rivers, Somalia, Black Hawk Down, how could I leave that out? Madrassas, honor killings, Wahhabi propaganda in mosques, threats of nuclear terrorism. It has been a somewhat bumpy relationship of late.
