Mossad and the Danish Cartoon Flap

The hand of the Mossad seems clear in this whole Danish Cartoon flap. First they publish cartoons profoundly insulting and offensive to Muslims, a large minority throughout Europe where support for Israel and the Amerisraeli “war on terror” is weak. Then, when Muslims expressed offence, the newspaper apologized and it looked like the whole thing might die down. Then the newspaper reprinted the cartoons and loudly insisted that it was their free-speech right to do so.

If they are so courageous, why don’t they run cartoons showing the Pope as a child molester or insulting Jesus or something? Why insult someone else’s religion and that pretend it is due to lofty principle. This is different than the Salman Rushdie affair, because Rushdie grew up a Muslim.

Someone clearly wants religious conflict to break out again in Europe, now that the French riots have died down. Now whose interests would that serve?
