Your Danish Cartoons Hangover Update

* the International Press institute plans to make a video about blasphemy, with the Danish cartoons as Exhibit A.

* the Canadian Human Rights Commission stuff sounds more like an unholy snakepit every time I read about it.

* here's something I hadn't seen yet: the denial of certain governments to recognize Danish citizenship as a barrier for Danish dual citizens to protest effectively in those countries.

* amazingly, Denmark is more than just a country that publishes cartoons that honk people off.

* it's sort of refreshing to see a quote about the Danish cartoons as a cultural reference rather than as a hot news item, although I thought everyone believed that Jesus was fair game everywhere.
