Drawing pictures/cartoons of someone who has never had a photograph taken of themselves throughtout their livelyhood will stir up emotions from people, especially their followers. To make matters even worse he was made to look like a terrorist. Yes Islam does say not to fight start wars etc but then again you will always get the sour apples in every religion.
How would people of reacted if that same picture had been made by a muslim/asian person showing Jesus, Guru Nanak, Rama-Sita etc instaed??
PHILIPPE DOUSTE-BLAZY, French Foreign Minister
The principle of freedom should be exercised in a spirit of tolerance, respect of beliefs, respect of religions, which is the very basis of secularism of our country.
How can the French say that when they banned all religeous symbols from schools!! Now thats double standards in itself.
I also do not condone the violence regarding this matter and hate to kill signs should be removed asap from anyone and the person removed from the protest.
Just my 2 pence worth.... from a british muslim
