I know I'm throwing questions out, but this is a controversial subject...
Nyck by saying "I mean what benefit comes from defacing someones religion" can be used for the muslim cause..what benefit does come from defacing their religion? I personally never found the cartoons funny and many others I know didn't. What did we gain from these horrid cartoons? The reason I believe the muslims take these cartoons the wrong way is not to wage a jihad against the world, its just that they were made fun of at the wrong time. In the first world most of us have learnt about the holocaust and what it did, thus we are more open to debate about it then we used to be.

Also Acideyez, I changed it because I felt it criss-crossed some of my values on this debate.
