Editorial pic, 1986 and today, 14 centuries' tradition
The cartoon is from my DLI years, showing a Shi'ite and a Sunni muezzin screaming at each other from the ivory towers of their respective minarets, instead of allahu-akbar (God is most great) to the mass of worshipers: "my god is greater than your god!" underneath reads: "the big problem in the Middle East...." the German headlines in the accompanying two articles (go to the link) reporting the situation in Afghanistan and Iraq respectively, exactly reflect my editorial cartoon. I still plan to get this out to the Arabic-speaking world. Whether it unleashes another Danish-fiasco, remains to be seen...insha'llah.
