Freedom
of Expression is a Human Right, at least it WAS last time I checked. The satirical
tradition stretches back to Antiquity. In the West, all of us are in a sense descendants
of a secular European Enlightenment & have been beneficiaries of long democratic
struggle. For these reasons among others, we must not be intimidated by intolerant
followers of an irrational faith, who lack any sense of humour. To threaten physical
violence (beheading etc) in retaliation for a few drawings
is downright criminal. It's taking art criticism too far!
Here's one response to the current controversy:
PROPHET & LOSS ?

hopping mad
those inopportune cartoons

all-out jihad
that pen of the Infidel
goddamn
might well prove sharper
& more cutting than
the deadly sword
of militant Islam
