For one, a lot of Muslims seem to attach some importance to the fact that it depicts Mohammed.

I imagine you'd be embarrassed to stereotype a lot of other groups in this way.

So are you saying that this particular picture of suicide bombers lining up in heaven for virgins is not good but there could be a political cartoon with the same theme that is good?
I was talking about cartoons that depict Mohammed, and it appears you now are not. Either you misunderstood me, or you are changing the subject.

Quote:
It seemed you didn’t because you said these cartoons had absolutely not merit and there printing serve no purpose. Since they were pretty typical political cartoons, with pretty obvious themes it just seemd to me that you didn't think political cartoons had merit.
Well, I guess you misunderstood. I thought they'd weren't particularly interesting, and therefore weren't worth running if they'd offend a lot of people.
