I'll bet you a $100 that no one says anything about this.

16 die in cartoon protests in Nigeria

"Sixteen people were killed and 11 churches were burned Saturday in Nigeria as part of the continuing violence over cartoons of Islam's Prophet Mohammed."

This is just continuing examples that the cartoons were just an excuse to escalate violence against the "evil West". I'm sure this all has been percolating just below the surface just waiting for a catalyst to cause it to explode. Well, it's happened and we need to deal with it. Decisively. U235 = Kr92 + Ba141...

BTW... you owe me $100...

They just proved the cartoon right.....
"If there were no eternal consciousness in a man, if at the bottom of everything there were only a wild ferment, a power that twisting in dark passions produced everything great or inconsequential; if an unfathomable insatiable emptiness lay hid beneath everything, what would life be but despair?"

but you don't understand,.. the muslims of nigeria WERE OFFENDED by the damn cartoons that were published LAST OCTOBER by a man with a history of using cartoons to illustate religious criticism in DENMARK and they were reprinted in France.

Therefore, to show the world what they were offended by, Those few muslims who did see them had to show them to rest of the Muslims. And pakistan asploded all over the Christians ad lashed out at America,.. both of whom said the cartoons were kinda mean to the Muslims, who can't draw their prophet because the clerics say so, wvwn though it is no where in their actual doctrine.

wait, i don't understand either, i guess...

Has anyone actually seen the cartoons? It appears none of the American papers would reprint them. If anybody has a link, I would love to see
them. Thanks

Just Google 'em, man. I thought they were pretty lame. Definitely not worth rioting over.
