Update on Mid East Editorial Comics

That Iranian newspaper that said they'd have a Holocaust cartoon contest has actually gone through with there plans and is now displaying some of the comics. The article explains that the idea is to "test the West's tolerance for drawings about the Nazi killing of 6 million Jews in World War II." So far I have yet to hear of any riots as a result of these comics like the riots that came in the wake of the prophet Mohamed comics, so it looks like we in the west have passed this test of our tolerance.
