If you haven't been following this story, you should now. A cartoon from a Danish newspaper depicting the Prophet Muhammad with a lit fuse in his turban has started a Euro-wide controversy. Several big name European papers have reprinted the cartoon after numerous Muslim groups condemned the Danish paper and boycotted Danish goods. Several Islamic nations have withdrawn their ambassadors. Hat tip: Padawan John
Update: I have added a link to the actual cartoon in the above text
New update: A Jordanian paper has published the cartoon and has expressed approval with European newspapers doing so.
