This whole episode started in what appeared to be a harmless way. Danish author Kåre Bluitgen wanted to write a children’s book on the life of Mohammed, but was unable to find an artist prepared to illustrate it for him (ironically the book has since been published, complete with illustrations, although the artist insisted on anonymity). The editors of Jyllands-Posten claim they decided to test out this unwillingness to depict the prophet by asking 25 cartoonists to send then an image of Mohammed “as they saw him”. Thirteen refused, but the other 12 were all published in the newspaper. There seems little doubt that the exercise was intended as a provocation.

Yet another example of Anti-Semitism which gets a little paragragh on an inside page. I wonder if those who have been rushing to the defence of Islamic Fundamentalists will condemn this and acknowledge that the Holocaust took place? I hope so.

Time to name and shame the FF senators
Fianna Fáil senators have blocked attempts to set up a Seanad investigation into allegations that the US has illegally transported prisoners through Shannon airport for torture elsewhere. Apparently Fianna Fáil senators feared that the creation of a Seanad inquiry would be seen as an unfriendly act by the United States, and possibly threaten the US military's increasingly important use of Shannon International Airport.
