This is certainly interesting. Notice that he was 'sent' on leave.
The Danish editor who commissioned the Prophet Muhammad cartoons at the centre of a global row has been sent on leave.
Flemming Rose, culture editor of the Jyllands-Posten newspaper, got the order after saying he might print Iranian cartoons of the Holocaust.
The Danish cartoons, seen by many Muslims as insulting to their faith, have sparked worldwide protests.
Earlier this week, an Iranian newspaper said it was holding a contest inviting cartoonists to depict the Holocaust.
Hamshahri said it wanted to test the boundaries of free speech, echoing the reasons Jyllands-Posten and other European papers have given for publishing the caricatures.

In my own research on the Holocaust, I've come across two things that are problematical. Why have revisionist historians, scientists and publishers been murdered, assaulted, had acid thrown in their face, and been imprisoned? This seems like Dark Ages stuff.
Here is a site that gives a partial list of these victims: http://www.zundelsite.org/english/debate/victims/index.html
And why was it necessary to torture confessions from Nazis during the Nuremberg trials?
Here is an article that details the extensive use of torture by the Allies against Nazi defendants:

Guys, why keep wringing hands over the craven network news and the print msm? If the collective lot hadn't fallen in love with themselves then sold their souls for profits and appeasement, there never would have been bloggers.
MSM doesn't dictate anything anymore, who cares if the New York Times, Washington Post, LA Times, papers far and near can't summon the courage to speak for Western values?
When Power Line and others took down CBS's and Dan Rather's britches, they didn't expose a hot hunk, just spandex wrapped around french dip.
By the way, this site deserves some Fatwa's, why not start posting on Iranian, Eygptian, Saudi, Pakistani newspaper websites? I'm thinking letters to the editors or letters to the Imam? How about reporting yourself on a Saudi hotline for the religious police?

Screw him! I saw his interview - I know why he did it - and then he/they compound it by not having the balls to see it thru.

That's my problem with these guys, too, hondo. Why don't they see that it will only get worse? Why don't we see it, too? Our media is sucking hind tit on this issue, also.
