I'm not blasphemous, I'm just drawn that way

We posted a Mohammed cartoon roundup a few weeks ago, but as we ramp up for another round of Speaking Truth to Power at the Danish consulate in NYC tomorrow, we need a fresh dose of inspiration.

As Tim Blair pointed out, the cartoons "have been published more widely in Muslim countries than in Australia, New Zealand, and Canada combined" and here's a map showing just which newspapers around the globe have published the cartoons. So we have some catching up to do.

Here's a map of demonstrations, riots and deaths in reaction to the cartoons. (We want our rally tomorrow to be a benign little red drop, not a large menacing black or pink drop.)

I suggest people attend the rally costumed as various porcine pop culture figures and carrying large posters of the offensive drawings, in the manner of the Cox and Forkum cartoon. (Purim isn't for another 2 weeks but consider it a dress rehearsal.)

Western terror labs have finally produced a weapon so horrific that it has shaken Islamic world to the core, making over a billion people from Morocco to Indonesia fear for the survival of their freedoms, morals, beliefs, cultures, governments, and the very life itself. The new weapon of terror, the so-called "Cartoon," is capable of delivering an equivalent of one million Hiroshima bombs, resulting in a horrendous mass destruction like none seen on Earth before.

. . . . Egypt, Yemen, Saudi Arabia, and Iran have been clandestinely working on the "Mother of All Erasers," in an attempt to control the budding menace of cartoon proliferation. "You can kill one infidel with a sword, but if he has already published a Mohammed cartoon, the cat is out of the fire, so to speak. With our new eraser technology, we may stand a chance at eliminating the cartoons before the damage is done," said Rabid Habibi, a member of People for the Unethical Treatment of Infidels.

Mohammed has even been immortalized in ASCII art.

Some very rude cartoons here.

It's all cartoon news all the time over at the BBC. (The BBC in an alternate universe, anyway . . . . )

The minute you let FARKers anywhere near a topic like this, you're asking for it. A selection:
