The "Offending Cartoon"

Above is the Zapiro cartoon which got South African Muslims all up in arms.  I posted about this yesterday, but today I found this courtesy of the Gates of Vienna (GoV) blog.  The following commentary, along with the picture was posted two days ago:

The leftist nature of the M&G [the South African Newspaper] helps explain why the paper caved in relatively easily — after all, defending freedom of “racist” speech doesn’t come easily to a cultural Marxist.



But the amazing thing is that they evidently hadn’t the faintest idea of what they were setting themselves up for. Did they really think that because they were fervent progressives, they would be spared the wrath of the Universal Muslim Rage Boy? Have they been holed up in a cave these last nine years?


If they have any sense at all, they now understand the rules of the game: Islam trumps Marxism every time, without exception. Any leftist who thinks he can cha-cha with the prophet without assuming the Full Submission Position is sadly mistaken.
