hirap maging muslim woman..

I think the reason Danes published those cartoons was for a debate about the intolerance of Muslims even on the highly tolerant Scandinavian countries.

According to Time, Pim Fortuyn, a Dutch politician who stood up against Muslim immigrant hostility to equality for women and gays, was murdered on the street. Theo van Gogh, a Dutch filmmaker who offended strict Muslims, was killed thereafter. Several other Dutch politicians who have dared to criticize the intolerance of many Muslims live with police protection.

Another Dutch Muslim woman exposed the rape and abuse that female Muslims endure in secret inside their household was threatened of death.

It is in this context that those Danish cartoons were published. They were not arbitrary jokes as some may have concluded. The Danes were seriously apprehensive about Muslim intolerance and daring in their free society.

yeah, i really believe that the cartoons are just being used by the radical muslims to fan the flames...like someone else pointed out, hindi na Denmark o mga Danish ang inaatake ngayon - lahat na ng westerners especially the US and its allies.

yan naman ang modus operandi ng mga extremist clerics na yan - create an enemy and shift people's anger towards someone else para hindi mapansin ang baho nila

The news was a year ago, the same editor wanted to publish a set of Christian related cartoons (ganun din, criticism based) pero di naapprove daw...

reeks of double-standards.

There are reports that the same Jyllands-Posten cartoons were printed on a popular Egyptian newspaper in October last year ... nobody protested against the Egyptian paper nor against Egypt.

Intriguing - since Egypt is a muslim country.

WASHINGTON - Vice President Dick Cheney accidentally shot and wounded a companion during a weekend quail hunting trip in Texas, spraying the fellow hunter in the face and chest with shotgun pellets.

Harry Whittington, a millionaire attorney from Austin, was "alert and doing fine" in a Corpus Christi hospital Sunday after he was shot by Cheney on a ranch in south Texas, said Katharine Armstrong, the property's owner.

He was in stable condition Sunday, said Yvonne Wheeler, spokeswoman for the Christus Spohn Health System in Corpus Christi.

Armstrong in an interview with The Associated Press said Whittington, 78, was mostly injured on his right side, with the pellets hitting his cheek, neck and chest during the incident which occurred late afternoon on Saturday.

She said emergency personnel traveling with Cheney tended to Whittington until the ambulance arrived.

Cheney's spokeswoman, Lea Anne McBride, said the vice president met with Whittington and his wife at the hospital on Sunday. Cheney "was pleased to see that he's doing fine and in good spirits," she said.

The shooting was first reported by the Corpus Christi Caller-Times. The vice president's office did not disclose the accident until the day after it happened.

Armstrong said she was watching from a car while Cheney, Whittington and another hunter got out of the vehicle to shoot at a covey of quail.

Whittington shot a bird and went to look for it in the tall grass, while Cheney and the third hunter walked to another spot and discovered a second covey.

Whittington "came up from behind the vice president and the other hunter and didn't signal them or indicate to them or announce himself," Armstrong said.

"The vice president didn't see him," she continued. "The covey flushed and the vice president picked out a bird and was following it and shot. And by god, Harry was in the line of fire and got peppered pretty good."

Whittington has been a private practice attorney in Austin since 1950 and has long been active in Texas Republican politics. He's been appointed to several state boards, including when then-Gov. George W. Bush named him to the Texas Funeral Service Commission.

McBride did not comment about why the vice president's office did not tell reporters about the accident until the next day. She referred the question to Armstrong, who could not be reached again Sunday evening.

Armstrong, owner of the Armstrong Ranch where the accident occurred, said Whittington was bleeding and Cheney was very apologetic.

"It broke the skin," she said of the shotgun pellets. "It knocked him silly. But he was fine. He was talking. His eyes were open. It didn't get in his eyes or anything like that."

"Fortunately, the vice president has got a lot of medical people around him and so they were right there and probably more cautious than we would have been," she said. "The vice president has got an ambulance on call, so the ambulance came."

Cheney is an avid hunter who makes annual hunting trips to South Dakota to hunt pheasants. He also travels frequently to Arkansas to hunt ducks.

Armstrong said Cheney is a longtime friend who comes to the ranch to hunt about once a year and is "a very safe sportsman." She said Whittington is a regular, too, but she thought it was the first time the two men hunted together.

"This is something that happens from time to time. You now, I've been peppered pretty well myself," said Armstrong.

The 50,000-acre Armstrong ranch has been in the influential south Texas family since the turn of the last century. Katharine is the daughter of Tobin Armstrong, a politically connected rancher who has been a guest at the White House and spent 48 years as director of the Texas and Southwestern Cattle Raisers Association. He died in October. Cheney was among the dignitaries who attended his funeral

Palestinians call for help while others assist an injured demonstrator during clashes with Israeli troops in the village of Azun, near the West Bank town of Qalqilya Sunday Feb. 12, 2006. The clashes erupted after a graffiti insulting the Prophet Muhammad was found Sunday scrawled on a mosque of the nearby village of Nebe Elias. Israeli soldiers erased the slogans, but hundreds of aggrieved villagers in the area, who blamed Jewish settlers nearby for the offensive graffiti, gathered to protest. Dozens of youths threw stones at Israeli soldiers who came to break up the protest, and soldiers opened fire, hitting three Palestinians in the legs, witnesses said. (AP Photo/Nasser Ishtayeh
