Maybe there are a few Muslims with a lick of common sense out there. Rather than respond with violence, they decided to go after a European icon -- Holocaust victim Anne Frank

A Belgian-Dutch Islamic political organization posted anti-Jewish cartoons on its Web site in response to the cartoons of the prophet Mohammed that appeared in Danish papers last year and offended many Muslims.

The cartoons were posted on the Arab European League's site on Saturday. It was not working Sunday morning because of exceeded bandwidth.

The cartoons depicting Mohammed wearing a turban-shaped bomb were first published in Denmark, and then in newspapers elsewhere in Europe in a show of solidarity with press freedoms.

The Islamic site carried a disclaimer saying the images were being shown as part of an exercise in free speech rather than to endorse their content - just as European newspapers have reprinted the Danish cartoons.

One of the AEL cartoons displayed an image of Dutch Holocaust victim Anne Frank in bed with Adolf Hitler, and another questioned whether the Holocaust actually occurred.

Dyab Abou Jahjah, the party's founder and best-known figure, defended the action on the Dutch television program Nova Saturday.

"Europe has its sacred cows, even if they're not religious sacred cows," he told the program.

I won't reproduce this vile cartoon on this site in all its glory, though I make it available for those who choose to click the thumbnail below.

Hey, at least these folks are behaving in something resembling a civilized fashion, even if it involves perpetuating the anti-Semitism and Holocaust denial common in the Arab press. Having Europe's best known Holocaust victim raped by Hitler just isn't that shocking, when considered in that context.

Besides -- the Hadith tells us that Muhammad raped a 9-year-old in addition to murdering Jews, so he makes Hitler look like an amateur.
