Eleven more people were killed today in the middle east. Over cartoons published in a danish magazine about five months ago . And of course, the people killed had absolutely nothing to do with the cartoons anyways.

Haven't these people heard of writing a letter to the editor? Instead of torching the consulates of random western countries, thier retribution could be more like this:

"Dear Editor of Jyllands-Posten, I was greatly offended by the cartoons you published in your last issue depicting the prophet Muhammed in a demeaning manner. I think that there is a great misunderstanding about our faith. Perhaps you can come over some time, and we can discuss our feelings on this matter. I will bake delicious cookies*. "

-Rashid Al Abu, Iran


Then again... there is a certain apeal to making a total idiot of yourself in front of millions of people.



*Do people actually bake cookies in the Middle East?
