Boycotts of Danish products, calling diplomats back, journalistic rebuttals etc are better coordinated at OIC level, rather than Pakistan alone taking a stand on this issue. As we have seen Iran has been brave to go alone and take a bold stance on the cartoons, but no other Muslim state has followed suit, so why should Pakistan stick it's neck out yet again to please cowardly Arab states? Have we not suffered enough over the years by being the self-appointed 'thekadar of Islam' and "more Muslim" than some Muslim states?

Bring the totality of this issue before the OIC, and then let us see whether the Arab states, Indonesia, Turkey and Muslim Africa and others will join Iran and Pakistan?

What the Iranian newspaper is doing is equally condemnable. Putting up a contest for cartoons on the Holocaust is not an effective nor a justifiable response. The Holocaust was one of the darkest chapters in history, and not stuff to be made fun of. Just like the cartoons on the Prophet Mohammad are in extremely bad taste and outrageous-- freedom of the press being abused to the limit-- so is this "contest."
