Our friends the Saudis are at the forefront of the effort to whip up the faithful: Cartoons Infused Muslims With a Spirit of Defiance.
JEDDAH, 4 February 2006 — An influential imam of the Grand Mosque in Makkah proclaimed a new spirit of defiance among Muslims after worldwide protests over cartoons denigrating the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) in European newspapers.
“A great new spirit is flowing through the body of the Islamic Ummah… The world can no longer ignore this Ummah and its feelings,” Saleh Bin-Humaid said while delivering his Friday sermon.
“The nation has worked hard in support of its Prophet Muhammad in recent days. It is the right of every Muslim to show joy at this defense of our beloved Prophet,” he told hundreds of thousands of faithful who packed the Grand Mosque.
