I'm also reminded of the reaction to the Jyllands Posten publication of unflattering cartoons depicting Mohammed - it went somewhat beyond writing an irate letter to the editor, eh?
Just how many J-P journalists have gotten themselves killed over it?
Oh wait, none. The only people to die over it were the radical Muslims themselves, rioting over in Pakistan and shot by other Muslims.
Oh the 100,000-people who participated in Draw Muhammad Day - despite the fact Anwar al-Awlaki himself called for the initiators to be killed - just how many were killed?
Oh wait. None. In fact, it is al-Awlaki who is himself very much dead.
There was also the individual who tried to kill some Swedish reporters after they drew a doodle-some image of the prophet. He burned down in their newspaper lobby, like a Roman candle, having botched his suicide bomber plan.
They are like emo Twilight fans - we mock their leader, and they start killing themselves.
