From the AP:

Osama bin Laden slammed the publication of drawings insulting to the Prophet Muhammad in a new audio message posted late Wednesday and warned Europeans of a strong reaction to come.

The message, which appeared on a militant Web site that has carried al-Qaida statements in the past and bore the logo of the extremist group’s media wing al-Sahab, showed a still image of bin Laden aiming with an AK-47.

A voice believed to be bin Laden’s described the cartoons as taking place in the framework of a “new Crusade” against Islam and warned Europeans that a reaction would come.

“The response will be what you see and not what you hear and let our mothers bereave us if we do not make victorious our messenger of God,” he said, without specifying what action would be taken.

The tape was posted less than a week after the Danish intelligence service said the reprinting of a cartoon depicting the Prophet Muhammad had brought “negative attention” to Denmark and may have increased the risk to Danes at home and abroad.

Danish newspapers republished a cartoon showing Muhammad wearing a bomb-shaped turban on Feb. 13 to show their commitment to freedom of speech after police said they had uncovered a plot to kill the artist.

It’s unbelievable that Bin Laden and other radical Muslims are still making noise about those damn cartoons. The fact that Bin Laden and his sympathizers are willing to murder people over a cartoon really shows the kind of tyrannical vision they have for freedom loving countries.

So in the interest of poking an Islamic radical in the eye, we are reposting a few of the Danish cartoons that Muslims find so offensive.

From Michelle Malkin:

Two years ago, the Mohammed cartoon conflagration consumed the world and the blogosphere helped lead the way in fighting back. Longtime readers will remember that this site hammered the issue in support of Denmark. “Sammenhold,” you may recall, is the Danish word for solidarity. With the arrests this week of five jihadists accused of plotting to murder one of the Danish cartoonists, it’s time to demonstrate sammenhold again.

As a show of solidarity and a reminder of how cowardly American media outlets refused to stand up when it counted, take a minute to reprint your favorite Mo cartoon or link back to the blogging you did on the cartoon rage two years ago.

Michelle is right on with this one. For media outlets to refuse to show the silly cartoons out of fear of starting riots and murder is totally crazy. A lot of people post a lot of things everyday that we may not like, but that doesn’t give us the right to start torching buildings or chopping off people’s heads.
