9/11 or cartoons you make the call |
|
Rice said Iran and Syria "have gone out of their way to inflame sentiments and to use this to their own purposes. And the world ought to call them on it."

1. I think the cartoons were published at this time to |
|
inflame people and to increase tensions. I haven't read enough information to know exactly who is behind getting them out to the world, but I have no doubt that stirring up masses of Muslims was the point. I just hope we find out who did it and what their overall plan is.

2. How absurd it will be when the govt tries to justify a war in Iran |
|
using cartoons and people's reactions to them as empirical evidence of imminent attack.
For the record, I think the violence in response to the toons is equally absurd!

5. 9/11 cartoons are perfectly fine. |
|
I thought it was a shame when the very poignant 9/11 bronze of a falling person was removed, a few years back, I thought that was an excellent way of focusing peoples attention, but instead all I got was a Powerpoint presentation where *someone* made a typo of Iraq/Saddam for UBL...
