in many European and Arabic and South-East Asian countries, in
response to cartoons that were publish on 30 September 2005 in
Denmark's biggest newspaper Jyllands Posten. In the course of two
month half a dozen of embassies were burnt, editors sacked and or
prosecuted, and more than 120 people dead. Because of 12 cartoons.

This blog presents some material that was presented and discussed at a Philorum discussion on 6 April 2006. All cartoons can be found in the April archive.
