Defying threats, Swedish artist wants to turn prophet cartoon into musical
2007-10-02
He's offended Muslims worldwide and al-Qaida wants him dead but Swedish artist Lars Vilks said Monday he has no regrets about portraying the Prophet Muhammad as a dog. Vilks, 61, told The Associated Press he even plans to convert the row over his prophet drawings into a musical, with prominent roles depicting Iran's president, Sweden's prime minister and al-Qaida terrorists.

Good idea, BP. They'll just wander around some patio block in the middle of it for hours on end (until the BLU-82 gets there anyway).

Iran Germany was having trouble, what a sad, sad story.... Needed a new leader to restore its former glory....
Where, Oh where was he? Where could that man be?
We looked around and then we found....
The man for you and me.
And now it's..

Springtime for Ahmadinejacket Hitler and Iran Germany ....
The Islamic Republic Deutschland is happy and glad gayWe're marching to a faster pace....Look out, here comes the master race
