Bounty set over Prophet cartoon
    #7412385 - 09/15/07 08:36 AM (16 years, 4 months ago)

The purported head of al-Qaeda in Iraq has offered a reward for the murder of a Swedish cartoonist over his drawing depicting the Prophet Muhammad.

The $100,000 (£49,310) reward would be raised by 50% if Lars Vilks was "slaughtered like a lamb" said the audio message aired on the internet.

The speaker, said to be Abu Omar al-Baghdadi, threatened a new offensive during the holy month of Ramadan.

Last month's cartoon showed Prophet Muhammad's head on a dog's body.

Several Muslim countries protested.

Last year there were riots over Danish cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad, first published in September 2005 by the newspaper Jyllands-Posten.

Muslims regard any visual representation of the Prophet as blasphemous. Many Muslims also regard the dog as an impure animal.

I wish religion would just phase out already..all this ridiculousness for nothing.

Interesting.

It's not for nothing though, people are making BILLIONS from this manufactured conflict, just like all the other conflicts throughout history.

At least this will be the FINAL CONFLICT... oh yes it wil.  :yesnod:

You mean America will finally spread freedom across the heathen lands?

Thank Jebus. :bowdown:

“Strengthened by contemplation and study,
I will not fear my passions like a coward.
My body I will give to pleasures,
to diversions that I’ve dreamed of,
to the most daring erotic desires,
to the lustful impulses of my blood, without
any fear at all, for whenever I will—
and I will have the will, strengthened
as I’ll be with contemplation and study—
at the crucial moments I’ll recover
my spirit as was before: ascetic.”

So visiting Saudi Arabia while wearing a t-shirt with an image of Mohammed in a canine beastiality act would be a no-no?  I just need to know what to pack. :shrug:
