The now historic cartoons (artefacts) have been republished in Denmark again after first appearing in 2005. All the fuss created was by design back then in 05-06 as islamic clerics from Denmark added more pics (see story below)
The intimidation has worked for Muslims as many in the West are happy to give up their freedom & pretend to be safer for it.
Todays media and governments are so PC that it won't connect the crimes done in Islam's name. Denmark is one of the few countries brave enough to stand up for freedom of speech and stur the pot if necessary.
Thank You Denmark
SUPPORT DENMARK!!

Suspected Danish cartoon rioters torch cars
From correspondents in Copenhagen
February 17, 2008 06:05am
GANGS of rioters set fire to cars and garbage trucks in northern Copenhagen after demonstrators evicted from a youth centre earlier in the year tried to occupy a new building.
Five youths were arrested in the capital after 28 cars and 35 garbage trucks were burned, Copenhagen police duty officer Jakob Kristensen said.
Danish media said arrests in other towns brought to 29 the number of people police were holding.
Scores of cars and several schools have been vandalised or burned in the past week.
Police could give no reason, but said that unusually mild weather and the closure of schools for a winter break might have contributed. (yeah right)!

Background: Muhammad cartoons controversy
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
History of events in 2005 :
The Jyllands-Posten Muhammad cartoons controversy began after twelve editorial cartoons, most of which depicted the Islamic prophet Muhammad, were published in the Danish newspaper Jyllands-Posten on 30 September 2005.
The newspaper announced that this publication was an attempt to contribute to the debate regarding criticism of Islam and self-censorship.
The Akkari-Laban dossier (Arabic: ملف عكّاري لبن) is a 43 page document which was created by a group of Danish Muslim clerics from multiple organizations set out to present their case and ask for support in the Jyllands-Posten Muhammad cartoons controversy. Three faked additional images - which where never published - were added to the list of cartoons actually published in the dossier handed out during this tour.
Danish Imams tour the Middle East
Two imams who had been granted sanctuary in Denmark, dissatisfied with the reaction of the Danish Government and Jyllands-Posten, created a forty- three-page document entitled "Dossier about championing the prophet Muhammad peace be upon him."[30]
- Ahmed Akkari is a co-author of the Akkari-Laban dossier, which played a major role in the Jyllands-Posten Muhammad cartoons controversy by bringing the issue to the attention of influential decision-makers in the Middle East.
- Three additional images- allegedly sent to Abu Laban but never published - were added to the list of cartoons actually published in the dossier handed out during this tour. Ahmad Akkari has explained that the three drawings had been added to "give an insight in how hateful the atmosphere in Denmark is towards Muslims."
This consisted of several letters from Muslim organisations explaining their case including allegations of the mistreatment of Danish Muslims, citing the Jyllands-Posten cartoons (including the false claim that said publication was a government-run newspaper) and also supplementing the following causes of "pain and torment" for the authors:
1. Pictures from another Danish newspaper, Weekendavisen, which they called "even more offending" (than the original twelve cartoons);
2. Hate-mail pictures and letters that the dossier's authors alleged were sent to Muslims in Denmark, said to be indicative of the rejection of Muslims by the Danish;
3. A televised interview discussing Islam with Dutch member of parliament and Islam critic Hirsi Ali, who had received the Freedom Prize "for her work to further freedom of speech and the rights of women" from the Danish Liberal Party represented by Anders Fogh Rasmussen.
Appended to the dossier were multiple clippings from Jyllands-Posten, multiple clippings from Weekendavisen, some clippings from Arabic-language papers and three additional images which also had no connection with Denmark.
The imams claimed that the three additional images were sent anonymously by mail to Muslims who were participating in an online debate on Jyllands-Posten,[31] and were apparently included to illustrate the perceived atmosphere of Islamophobia in which they lived, and to trigger anti-Western hatred.[32] On February 1 BBC World incorrectly reported that one of them had been published in Jyllands-Posten.[33] This image was later found to be a wire-service photo of a contestant at a French pig-squealing contest.[34][35] One of the other two additional images (a photo) portrayed a Muslim being mounted by a dog while praying, and the other (a cartoon) portrayed Muhammad as a demonic paedophile. Equipped with the dossier, the two imams circulated it throughout the Muslim world, presenting their case to many influential religious and political leaders, asking for support.[36]
