Norwegian mag publishes Mohammed cartoons

mo toons

Magazinet, an obscure Norwegian Christian magazine, has incurred the wrath of the Supreme Islamic Council (can’t find web link – there are too many of them) for re-publishing the Mohammed cartoons originally printed by Jyllands-Posten in Denmark.

According to Islam Online, the head of SIC, Mohammed Hamdan, has condemned the magazine “in the strongest possible terms”. When informed that Magazinet printed the cartoons in the name of free expression, Hamdan revealingly replied,

What on earth does freedom of expression mean?

He hopes that the government of Norway will condemn the publication, unlike the Danish government who steadfastly refused to take action.

Editors should not take free speech as an excuse to insult a certain religion; otherwise they risk an extremist response from the offended, which carries grave consequences.

In other words, shut up or we’ll kill you.

    I believe the phrase is ….”Oh, what a give-away!”

    Hi,
    I think that the one who published this cartoon , even has nothing to do with humanity or what others feel about their relegion and their prophet.Or, he don’t care about the biggest personnality in history. in all cases he did something bad and he know this because he knew how he can feel if some one drawn a cartoon of Him in a bad way. anyway , all i can is that i hope this person apologise to himself because he dosn’t know what he did to himself and i don’t think he will do it ,moreover a small artical saying that he was wrong to do this will be enough.

    For Your Knowledge i m a muslim and i will not do it even with your favorite football player
    let alone someone who is your example.

    Thank You.
    From a MUSLIM
    Sorry for the mistakes

    Why is it that every time someone says something about Islam or Mohammed or whoever, Muslims cause civil disobedience?
    Like France for example: Muslims torched cars and buildings because of what? Some Muslim criminals were killed while running from the police.
    Duh. Anyone who’s not a Muslim has to obey the law but not Muslims? Everyone who’s not a Muslim has to held responsible for their crimes but not Muslims?
    What lunicy. It’s like Muslims are just looking for an excuse to cause civil disobedience. Of course if you study Mohammed’s doctrine,
    he gained control by causing civil disobedience until they get control. Then there was Shia law and everyone who cause civil
    disobenience or protest was killed. Wake up folks.

    I have just been watching a news item showing Moslem representatives
    from several Moslem countries meeting to discuss what action should
    be taken with regard to the Mohammed cartoons.Ironically, the next
    news item showed footage of American Jill Carroll, in great distress,
    pleading for her life.
    It would be much better if these Muslim representatives spent the time
    discussing how they can stop their co-religionists taking hostages,
    decapitating people and using human bombs. Moslems are forever telling
    the world how great Islam is.Well, if thats the case it should be able
    to rise above a few silly drawings.

    I’m afraid that you guys have it all wrong.
    The cartoons are not meant as anti-islamic in any fashion.
    It is common practice in the western world that making charicatures
    of all sorts of topics, including religious ones also christianity!
    Unfortunately there are fundamentalists in all societies, western, arab, african
    you name it. I don’t think we should let the few fundamentalists decide!
    I am for peace and brotherhood across nations and cultures, we are, after all
    all human beings.
    I know that there will be many people who do not agree with me and that is ok
    that is one of the many aspects of freedom of speech, to accept different oppinions.
    Anyway, I just wanted to give you guys a small insight in the way western people think.
    Once more, let me repeat my wish and hope for brotherhood of all humans.

    I see the muslims are getting a little annoyed about these
    cartoons and have taken to the streets carrying placards
    stating they want to kill, butcher and behead those responsible.
    Sorry, but I am confused. I could almost swear that I have heard
    muslims tell us unbelievers, time and time again, that Islam is a
    peaceful religion.
    Of course, maybe all those people protesting weren’t really muslims
    at all, but just people pretending to be muslims trying to give
    Islam a bad name. Yeah, that has to be it. Phew!

  14. Steve says:

    Muslims hide behind the fact they love european life,check any red light
    area.Then they revert back to holy joes when anything said against them.

  15. Hodge says:

    Thanks for the mohammed pictures – I will scan them and have them tattooed on to the rear of my pet pig

    GREATEST THREAT TO THE FREE WORLD AND MANKING – AS THEY HAVE NO TOLERANCE
    WHATSOEVER, AND WISH TO RULE AND DOMINATE THE WHOLE WORLD. THE CARTOONS ARE
    BRILLIANT. ABOUT TIME SOMEONE TOOK A STAND AGAINST THESE MUSLIM DICTATORS WHO

    SO CALLED RELIGION ISLAM AND PEACE THEY DECLARE – WHILST SETTING FIRE TO EMBASSIES

  17. Ahmed says:

    Well, Islam being a peaceful relegion doesn’t mean muslims must remain silence when any ingnorant try
    to disobey , and insult our believe.We don’t give a shit of what you could say about Islam,, but you need to show respect as much we show to your relegious personnel.I careless for whatever books europe isuues about islam,I know how much of wrong facts in them,but don’t go and do the NO NO.
    Well,protesting is much easier than other ways of openning the hellgates wide open.So we respect your beleive, we don’t care what you do, please leave us alone, or else……

  18. Joe says:

    Or else what, Ahmed?

  19. tom says:

    i am sick to death of extremist muslims trying to dictate to people what they can and cannot do. who do they think they are? seriously, if you don’t like my country, get the hell out because i can guarantee that most of the people in this country are fed up with you. preaching hate will get you no where, you are nothing but bullies who are giving real muslims a bad name and creating racsicm with your views.

  20. Joe says:

    You still haven’t explained Ahmed. Or else what?

  21. Michael says:

    I have just read the comments and to be quite honest i am disgusted with what i have read. i am not muslim, nor christian, but to see you people write about religion that way makes me sick. religion is all about belief and a set of principles to live your life in a good way. who you believe to be god is your own thing, dont inflict it on others and claim ‘my god is real urs isnt’. furthermore, yeah the muslims have done some atrocious things, the terrorism, and the protests were not the best way to show that theyre unhappy (christians..remember the crusades?), but the charicatures were completely in distaste, and i can understand their unhappiness. but its true, u wouldnt see charicatures of mary or jesus doing something distasteful, so why do it to the muslims?? muslims should educate and if they want to show that it is a peaceful religion, then lead by example, and spread the word, saying things like ‘or else’ is not going to help you

  22. Michael says:

    i also think whoever writes the blurbs on the webpage should be a bit more diplomatic and behave professionally

  23. Joe appleton says:

    I think that like any race with Muslims it is the minority that spoil it for the majority. Most Muslims are not extremists and condemn those who are. I do however believe that caricatures are not meant to be offensive and I think the Muslims should accept this as part of western culture and try to embrace the countries they join rather than cause segregation which leads to hatred.

  24. well according to me the one who is resposible for
    printing such cartoons should be hand till death..
    because that bastes had hurt muslim sentiments..
    this is was the shameless attempt of those busteds who have
    tried to hurt the humanity..
    kill those mother fuckers…

  25. Joe says:

    Re last comment by Mohammed Salahuddin.
    Another fine example from a follower of “peaceful”
    Islam.

    I think all this is stupid !!
    and it’s NOT to blame ALL DANISH PPL !!!
    or make ALL danish ppl take the consiquenses of ONE newspaper’s actions !

    The Jyllands-post was not thinking right when they did this
    and the muslims should not take this SO harsh…
    I mean. .. I’ve seen cartoons really making fun of God and Jesus Christ all over the internet and sometimes magazines and news papers
    are we christians going to harm innocents for that ?
    NO !! Cuz not all unchristian ppl did this!! just a VERY LITLE part of them !!

    thank you

    ps. TRY AND THINK LOGICALLY
