Extract

Recently, twelve cartoons, some of which described Prophet Muhammad as a terrorist, are published by Danish newspaper. And there were the violent protests to the cartoons from Islam. There are many contradicting points whether they should prefer "religious belief" or "freedom of press" However, separate from religious point, the cartoonist and the newspaper had to have more understanding in Islamic culture, and their religion. What matters is not that Muslims ban drawing Prophet Muhammad, but that Danish newspaper lacked enough understanding of Islamic culture.
