The Jyllands-Posten Muhammad cartoons controversy began after twelve editorial cartoons depicting the Islamic prophet Muhammad were published in the Danish newspaper Jyllands-Posten on September 30, 2005. Danish Muslim organizations organised protests. As the controversy has grown, some or all of the cartoons have been reprinted in newspapers in more than 20 other countries.

Here are the 12 Cartoons that led to the scandal:

You have got to admit that some of these cartoons are pretty good. So far, my favorite has been where Mohammad is up in "heaven" and suicide bombers are running in with him announcing to stop because they've run out of virgins.

Second favorite is the black strip across the eyes of the male (Mohammad).

Actually it is funny to ofend other peoples religion or God. Just don't do it in front of them, cause being blown up isn't funny at all.

It’s not about offending or making fun just for laughs man. It’s about intolerance! Political cartoons are supposed to send a clear visual message; the message most often is harsh criticism, and if the point gets across, then the cartoon’s purpose is realized.

The reaction of these protesters has made an even stronger point than the cartoonist – ignorant religious fanatics are wrong and dangerous!

Now the problem isn’t religion, because Islam used to not be so intolerant; Christians and Jews lived in Islamic Spain for 800 years with freedom of religion, Al-Andaluz was the only land in Medieval Europe where classic Greek literature was translated and studied, important advances in medicine, math, and other sciences were being made, and population was not being disseminated by the plague (in part because they separated drinking water from water for other purposes, and they washed/bathed often – usually before each of their five daily prayers).

Then Christians in Leon, Castilla, Galicia and other northern kingdoms were influenced and got help from the rest of Europe (including Crusaders - mercenaries fighting in the name of the Holy Cross) and called a war against the Moors (Moros, por prietos) eventually defeating and kicking out the Muslims by 1492. They set up the Holy Inquisition and tortured and kicked out all Jews that wouldn’t convert – Then Columbus “discovered America” that same year – shit, you know they went med-evil on Indians. Ignorant religious fanatics are wrong and dangerous man I tell you! This time they took over a continent, and Latin America still hasn’t recovered.

Its funny how they call themselves the "religion of Peace"

That how crazy they are. I went to the Vargas fight in las Vegas and you had Mexican, Blacks, and whites in the same place. After the fight we all left in peace. There were mexicans with tatoos, and many blacks and whites with scary looks.

That is the difference between us and them. Different group of arabs would kill each other if they could. Right here different races meet daily and they would not start a civil war for the dominace of their race and the country.

Fuck Muslim Extremist!
