No, at least three (including the pig picture that was not among the original 12) directly mock him, and any image depicting him is offensive simply by that virtue.
And I nowhere said it's nice they are willing to kill. That's why I highlighted the Holocaust cartoon idea - it's non-violent.
The problem wiht that was the pig picture wasn't among the original. It's actually a guy in a pig costume for a pig calling contest. Some Mullah decided to add it. Same with the dog humping one and the pedophile one.
big hi-five? For the tit for tat attitude of nations? The president of iran is proposing a conference to investigate if the holocaust actually happened. Im sure theyll deduce it didnt. Its all to stir up hatred. Youve got ask why arent they targeting christians? - because they are generally an antisemetic bunch. The catoons were a terrible idea in the first place, but the violence that followed is now out of proportion and to put the icing on the cake they now want to attack the holocaust. Ive seen school children behave with more dignitiy than this.
You're absolutely right, but nevertheless anti-semetic cartoons are the perfect rebuttal. It proves to everyone in the West how truly offensive a cartoon can be, and it's non-violent. I mean, isn't it? Of course, you could fairly argue that anti-semetic cartoons would instigate violence, but that's exactly the argument against the Mohammed cartoons! I hate to see the childishness continue, but it just puts the whole thing in such perfect perspective that it's hard for me not to approve.
Heh - even the original publisher approves. That's kinda cool.
"The caricatures were first published in the Danish newspaper Jyllands-Posten. Culture editor Flemming Rose told CNN on Wednesday he came up with the idea after several local cases of self-censorship involving people fearing reprisals from Muslims.
...
Rose also said his paper was trying to contact a prominent Iranian newspaper that said it would hold a competition for cartoons on the Holocaust to test whether the West extends the principle of freedom of expression to the Nazi genocide as it did to the Muhammad caricatures.
Rose said Jyllands-Posten wants to publish those cartoons on the same day the Iranian paper Hamshahri does."

It's nice that they love mohammed enough to kill and all but it's not the secular humanist way to kill people who treat your beliefs with irreverence.
