Oops! We Forgot To Riot And Kill Each Other!
You know how the barbarians reacted to the Jyllands-Posten cartoons, with mayhem, murder, and arson? Well, the Iranian newspaper made good on its promise of an anti-semitic cartoon contest. Here...yawwwwwn...are the results.
For the really funny shit, you have to go to the Israeli anti-semitic cartoon contest. Yes, you read right. The Israelis responded by putting on an anti-semitic cartoon contest of their own:
Contest open to Jew creators only! Sorry! This is Jews joking about themselves here!
Hmmm, which population seems more advanced? That's a toughie!
Immediate reactions: mild sadness and embarrassment. Perhaps we should leave cartoons to the children, and stick to the more difficult work of using our words?

Not so fast Amy!
(March 17, 2006) Deaths Mark Publication of Jewish Cartoons. Eight Jews were found dead today in the streets of Tel Aviv. The cause; apparent hysteria as they laughed themselves to death. According to Itzak Ben-Goyimmaster, a public health official and president of the Jewish World Domination Order, the eight Jews who had enlarged funny bones, were overcome with laughter after seeing some cartoons which had been entered in an anti-Semitic cartoon contest. Ben-Goyimmaster said that the hysterical crowd was OK until an American tourist from Alabama shouted out "Jesus loves you, and died for your sins". This slogan resulted in the 8 Jews going into hyper-hysterics and dropping dead from laughter.........developing

Well, Lena, I'm all for using words, but I don't mind immaturity from time to time. The point isn't really the cartoons themselves, but the way one group of people can laugh at themselves and the other takes to murder, fires, and rioting.
And funny, Bill!
