Cartoons

Mark Steyn has a view.
Tim Blair said to read this well written column by Julie Burchill:

For fear of appearing racist, many Britons suspend their normal judgments when dealing with the behavior of ethnic minorities. Not only is this totally racist in itself - pre-supposing as it does that ethnics are like children, who know not what they do and must have special dispensation to behave badly - but it also ignores the fact that the other ethnic minorities, be they Jews, Chinese or Hindus, have somehow managed to both keep their culture and fit into their chosen adopted country, without feeling the need to parade around the streets like big overgrown babies, stamping their feet and ordering fatwas when things displease them.

He also notes that the Rocky Mountain News printed the cartoons and gotten kudos from readers.

Iran now is calling for an end to the protests while 9 out of 10 Iranian Imans authorize using nuclear weapons.

I think I'll go back to bed.
