Heres my entry:
"IRAN'S largest selling newspaper announced today it was holding a contest on cartoons of the Holocaust in response to the publishing in European papers of caricatures of the Prophet Mohammed.
'It will be an international cartoon contest about the Holocaust,' said Farid Mortazavi, the graphics editor for Hamshahri newspaper - which is published by Teheran's conservative municipality.
He said the plan was to turn the tables on the assertion that newspapers can print offensive material in the name of freedom of expression."

And this is news to whom? The arab press (and the arab street, or is it sand dune?) as we all now has been blasphemizing the western world as long as they could draw lines in the sand.
Many recent examples can be found here, or here, or here just to name 3 out of a google search returning 244,000 using the following terms: anti semitic cartoons. Funny, I can remember it taking terrorists committing a long line of hostile acts against the US culminating with 9-11 before we lost our cool. And those were no cartoons.
