A phony concern

Well, the manipulation of the Western media continues. With the media's willing participation again.

Some fairly small newspaper publishes some cartoons (noted below).

Muslims protest at the time.

Issue seems to be winding down.

Iranians resume nuclear weapons program.

Hamas wins Palestinian elections.

Western media actually begins to publish mildly critical reports about the above two events.

Western countries begin to threaten to back off aid to Palestinians.

Issue heats back up, this time led by armed Palestinian gunmen. "Spontaneous" demonstrations break out all over the Muslim world.

Western media begins self-flagellation over "disrespect" for Muslim religion.

Soon Western countries will cave in and send huge aid increases to Hamas. Western press will fearlessly censor any criticism of anything remotely connected to Muslims. France will surrender and send all their nuclear weapons to the Mullahs for safe-keeping.

Did I miss anything?

How about this - the world will begin to worry about offending the Muslim religion when and if they begin to show the same degree of respect for other cultures and religions. Does that sound reasonable?

How about this - the world will withdraw all aid workers and all financial aid unless and until Hamas renounces violence and recognizes Israel's right to exist. Does that sound reasonable?

How about this- the world will finally come to it's senses and stop enabling this despicable behavior of forcing acquiescence through threats of violence. Does that sound reasonable?

How about this - the Western media will stop complying with and cooperating with the spread of Muslim propaganda. They also should grow up enough to see that they are allowing the Muslims to distract attention from terrorism and the Iranian nuclear weapons program. Does that sound reasonable?

How about any of those things?
