The head of al Qaeda in Iraq (or "NAMBLA") has offered a $100,000 reward for the murder of Swedish artist Lars Vilks, who recently drew a cartoon depicting Muhammad with the body of a dog. For those of you who don't know, Muhammad is the prophet of Islam who married a six-year-old and had sex with her when she turned nine. He was fifty-three at the time. Anyway, al Qaeda in Iraq is also offering a $50,000 reward for the murder of the editor of Nerikes Allehanda newspaper which published the cartoon. And there's a 50% bonus prize if Vilks is "slaughtered like a lamb". Unfortunately, I'm unable to find a copy of Vilks' drawing in the cowardly, complacent press, so the picture you see if of one of the Danish cartoons that got so many panties in bunches two years ago. More details here.
