Kofi speaks out on cartoon unrest
Via Bloomberg:
Feb. 6 (Bloomberg) -- UN Secretary General Kofi Annan said violence triggered by the publication of cartoons of the prophet Muhammad isn't justified and called on Muslims to refrain from more attacks on Nordic diplomatic missions after protests in Lebanon, Syria and other Islamic nations.
Well, that should do it. Protest over. Annan also feels that heaping false adulation on Muslims could work:
Muslims should accept the apology given by the newspaper and act in the "true spirit of a religion famed for its values of mercy and compassion," Annan said in his statement, according to the UN.
Ah, yes - the mercy and compassion of sharia law...
