Careful, if you're Muslim this WILL be offensive.

Always loved the "Opus" strip. They poked fun at
Rev. Jerry Falwell without any problem a week ago, But
this was thought of as too controversial
because this time it took a humorous swipe
at Muslim fundamentalists.

The Washington Post and several other newspapers around the country did not run Sunday's installment of Berkeley Breathed's "Opus," in which the spiritual fad-seeking character Lola Granola appears in a headscarf and explains to her boyfriend, Steve, why she wants to become a radical Islamist.

political correctness like this, makes me ill. Especially
when it guides our supposed free press
:-s

That's really tame in comparison too. Cowards were probably afraid of the impending pipe bombs from from that peaceful American Islamic Relations Coalition group...
