'Publication was a mistake'

Cairo - Former German chancellor Gerhard Schroeder has criticised the publication of cartoons, depicting the Prophet Mohammed, by several European newspapers.

In an address at the Jeddah Economic Forum in Saudi Arabia, Schroeder called the publication "a major mistake", saying "we should return now to a reasonable and acceptable way to respect sanctities and beliefs".

Schroeder said: "I share with Muslims around the world the anger over the offensive cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed, and we should turn to tolerance and respect of cultures and religions."

Fred says... Pierre, this is more stupidity. Nato did not destroy Libya. It intervened at the behest of the Arab League and United Nations and in so doing sugically targeted military and other institutional installations to weaken Gaddafi's ability to destroy the country and kill many more thousands of people. The United Nations instructed Nato to do this, rightly so or there would have been tens of thousands more deaths, untold destruction, torture and rape by a mad, almost psychotic man. It is stupid not to draw these distinctions. I do agree with you that military action should be used as a last resort. This is exactly what happened in Libya. It is stupid to miss this. Countries that have been hijacked by a small group of people who then use its resources largely for their own gain and kill, torutre, and maim their populations to hold onto power are not truly sovereign. It is stupid to allow them to hide behind this label. Read the article...
