Report: Egyptian Conservatives Hack Site Over Cartoon

According to an English-language report on the site Bikyamasr, a group of conservatives hacked a site belonging to the publication Akhbar Al-Youm yesterday out of anger over a Saturday cartoon by Mustafa Hussein and Ahmed Ragab they claim insults Islam. In what isn't exactly a stunning surprise for folks that have followed these kinds of protests for more than five minutes, the cartoon itself was apparently less about insulting Islam generally but making fun of insincere members of the faction whose member hacked. I'm unable to find the cartoon on the site in question, so if anyone out there has access to it .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) Hussein's basic profile hardly reads like one from a cartoonist that would toss something out there in a lighthearted or non-serious fashion.
