I understand where you're coming from Joe, but I still like it. There's a certain John Wayne quality to reprinting that cartoon. A lot of people profess about not giving in to terrorists, but few would have the stones to do what that guy did.
I know it's not the same, but it reminds me of McAuliffe's "Nuts" message at Bastogne. Too many people try to placate their known enemies these days. It's nice to see someone telling them to go F themselves. How many people debated whether or not the 9/11 memorial would offend Muslims?
Hell, South Park, who pokes fun at everything and everyone (including Jesus), wouldn't even show an image, any image, of Mohammed.
