Danish Organizations Plan To Appeal Case Vs. Muhammed Caricature Papers

A story that seems to be exactly as described: the seven Danish Muslim organization that unsuccessfully sought legal action against the newspapers and individual responsible for the 2005 Muhammed caricatures, caricatures that led to a series of international protests and economic reprisals, plan to appeal to first the Danish supreme court and then to European courts specializing in human rights. I'm not sure there's much more to say about this case than that, although it indicates some weakness in a political spin put on the events in the last 12 months: that it's long been a dead issue in Denmark.
