Depictions of MohammadFrom Iran
There’s a great link up on Sound Politics this morning. This website has images of Mohammedancient, modern, reverent, satirical. Some are even from countries that are currently screaming that creating any images of Mohammad is blasphemy. Check out this picture of Mohammed from Iran…
Hmm… Mohammed is sooooo dreamy. And, hey, is that fairy dust coming out of his book?
There’s also a good story on the controversy in today’s New York Times. I particularly liked this graph:
In Germany, the conservative Die Welt printed one image on its front page and declared in an editorial: “The protests from the Muslims would be taken more seriously if they were less hypocritical. When Syrian television showed drama documentaries in prime time depicting rabbis as cannibals, the imams were quiet.”
Those folks need to lighten the fuck up.
