cartoon mirrors

let me state upfront that only a tiny fraction of the world's muslims are rioting over the infamous cartoons.

i've said before that it looks to me as if the toons aren't even anti-islam or attacks on the prophet, but take aim at terrorists.

nevertheless, the intensity of the reaction is disturbing.

makes you wonder how so many could get so overwrought from a few little drawings they haven't even seen.

maybe it's because their culture is so different.

or maybe it's because so many of the political cartoons in the muslim world feature hideous caricatures of jews, so it's natural to assume "zionist" western media would return the favor in kind.
