Author’s note: This was originally published in Dec. 2011 in Front Page Magazine and it was the most popular piece I’ve written until this piece of mine

About: Drawing Mohammed

I’m a cartoonist, so the only essays I write are ones that I cannot express in any other way but words and here- in light of the latest Jihad attack in London, and the latest “Islam vs “Islamism”” debate going on- is what I think is my most comprehensive piece on Islam, Muslims & Jihad

And in Jordbro, another southern district, police were attacked with stones by a couple of people as they tried to arrest someone for assault, and used tear-gas to defend themselves. Read more
