Cari Pasal?
Oh shit ... Jeff Ooi: How dare you English tabloid editors!
Does the cartoon make fun of Islam, does it make fun of Muslims, or both ... or not at all?
I'd like to hear what you think.

it's another stupid judgement by a so-called 'civilised' people. don't see any good in publishing those cartoons. heck, it's not even funny

I think it great. It puts the debate where it should be - there is a lot of grey area between what is right and what was wrong and its not the West fault its not clear - that Muslim must stop complaining, lecturing and demanding and engage its critics.

It is the duty of the press to inform, tell it as it is and sometimes to stimulate debate and awareness by leaving spaces of ambiguity in between their lines. My guess is that the editor responsible for alowing that cartoon might wish to spark the intelligence of some to look at the issue it (the cartoon) implies in varied aspects.

NST hits back at jeff ooi
Excerpt:
"As far as Kadir and Ooi are concerned, one only has to read the back issues of Malaysian Business and previous postings on the blog to see how doggedly they have, as comrades-in-arm, attacked the NSTP Group and its executives."

I'm actually more shocked at your alleged comment http://www.jeffooi.com/2006/02/how_dare_you_english_tabloid_e_1.php#comment-1316 than I am of the comic.
