I had missed this: The Islamic Society of Denmark apparently ginned up this controversy by mixing in with the images that were actually published three cartoons that are much more offensive than the others — and obviously created by a Muslim. (Who else would think to use “unclean” animals like pigs and dogs for maximum shock-value?)
Meanwhile, the US State Department is siding against Europe. Bernard Vanden Bloock, a Belgian Instapundit reader, has apt thoughts.
