"(and I wouldn't be at all surprised if this latest development turned out to be a deliberate attempt to antagonise the muslim world in order to more easily demonise it)"

On the other hand, I wouldn't be surprised if it was an attempt on the part of tin-pot dictators to piss people off, in order to have an outside enemy to point at.

Notice, for example, that the cartoons were originally published in September..and that some of the cartoons circulating are fakes that look designed to be offensive.

If they got mad about some cartoons, then they should not watch South Park. Oh man did they ever rape Bin Laudin over the humilation coals.

I have good odds that the south park creators take this and run with it. It's not beyond them to put Muhamed in their show. That or they will have their "Jesus" character get pissed about a caricture of himself.

/me can just imagine it now... After defeating Santa Claus over Christmas, Jesus takes on Mohammed in the ONE-ON-ONE ULTIMATE PROPHET SHOWDOWN!!!!!
edit: hmm, perhaps we should bring this up over in the Dominions forum... throw in a few Pretender-Gods to the mix and we can REALLY have a party!
