Is It Really About the Cartoon?

Posted by Eric at 9:21 pm. Filed under: War / Terrorism

As I read the headlines screaming all over the globe, “Syrians Torch Embassies Over Caricatures,” Cartoon controversy spreads throughout Muslim world,” “Embassies torched as cartoon furor grows,” I have to wonder…

Is it really about the cartoons?

Or are the followers of the ROP who are perpetuating these acts of violence simply full of hate, fury and destruction, and this is just one more excuse to act on those tendencies?

Michelle on a Roll

I’ve got Michelle Malkin on my RSS feed reader, as I’m sure hundreds or thousands of other bloggers do. Normally I find an occasional post in a day worth linking to, but in the last two days, when I’ve not been blogging, she has just kept hitting homeruns. Check out the following posts at her site if you haven’t seen ‘em yet.

Has the NYTimes Violated the Espionage Act?

The Cowardly American Media (maybe better, “CNN Respects Religion for the First Time”)

ROP Updates and International Day of Anger and Hateful Slogans.

And she has a Muhammad Cartoons Blogburst. Wow (126 Trackbacks!).

And she points to JYP’s Ironic Photo of the Day.
