Things To Do In England When You're Dead

Danish paper Jyllands-Posten seems to have upset a few folk by printing twelve cartoons which some feel are an insult to Islam, which as well as hardly having a light-hearted image, forbids the human representation of The Prophet.

While this is receiving ample coverage on BBC News. few seem willing to reprint the articles over here, unless it's in some pissy tabloid, which I haven't checked. I've only found one proper image in Die Welt (Left, no, right), which accused Islam of being unable to deal with satire.

Below is the article as it originally appeared in Jyllands-Posten, but how are we going to get a full picture of events until we can see the thing properly? It's like the people who criticized the pedophile episode of Brass Eye without watching it.

This is a strange situation where the French seem to be speaking the most sense. Newspaper France-Soir printed a cartoon featuring all the big deities with God saying to Muhammad "Don't be angry, we have all been charcutered" in order to support their argument that the press has a right to charicature Gods.
