When a law student asked if newspapers should publish the Danish cartoons depicting the Islamic Prophet Muhammed, Flynt said that every newspaper in the nation should “publish the cartoons tomorrow,” and a “group of towel heads [had gotten] away with intimidating the whole world.” The use of the racial slur drew hisses from some in the crowd...

Coming after the outcry over a Danish newspaper's cartoons of Mohammed, there was an almost endearing cluelessness in the magazine's decision to portray the Muslim prophet in perdition.

...charge that has been made. Indeed, the official form of Islam in Saudi Arabia, commonly referred to as Wahhabism, is undoubtedly “conservative” in that it rejects what it sees as changes introduced into Islam since the time when the religion was established by the Prophet Mohammad. In this regard, the label “reactionary” applies more or less as well to Wahhabi beliefs as it does to Protestant Christianity, which rejected the Catholic Church’s teachings on much the same basis.
