I don't think it was a smart move. If you want to make things worse and create far more tension - Then do what the europeans did and re-publish the images.

I mean, honestly, if you want to make a point about free speech regarding Islam, was this really the time to make it? I mean the relationship between the middle east and western society is pretty well fucked at the moment, and doing stuff like this at this point in time is making it really bad, and forcing a solid division.

I don't agree with the way they reacted, but then again, I see it as sort of childish to provoke in the way that these newspapers did, and I see it as just plain foolish to do it at this point in time....

What does it prove anyway? I mean it's obvious they have the right to exercise free speech - They don't live in dictatorships - The newspapers would allow them to print, and they know it. So what is the point? Just to spite muslims? Wow, that's a mature way to handle a very tender issue, during a very unstable time.

These people just need to look at the bigger picture - People are getting to involved in picking sides in this thing and not looking out for the greater good.
