The thing is that if Muslims hadn't acted as depicted in the cartoons then the cartoons wouldn't/couldn't exist. The cartoons are a mirror held up to reflect satirically the actions of Muslims.

For those who say that if we dont like Freedom of speech we should go back to the middle east or 'our own countries' well for a lot of muslims in the UK today Britain is where they're from. Its not that we dont like freedom of speech or dont agree with it, but that we feel it should be used with a bit of respect.

Perhaps non-muslims in the west would stop printing cartoons about Muslims/Mohamed if Muslims stopped suicide bombing etc....the cartoons are a reaction to past events.
