There is a general call for solidarity for all Swedish internet sites by the Stockholm Specatator to republish the cartoon in defiance of the government's capitulation.
And if you think Sweden doesn't have its share of Islamic terrorists, then you haven't been reading The Jawa Report long enough. See Army of Ansar al-Sunnah--In SWEDEN!?!?!; Ansar al-Sunna finds 'Safe Haven' in Sweden, Issues Death Fatwa Against Christian Minister; Sweden Reduces Terrorism Sentences; Muslim Ruled Sweden?
Via Emperor Darth Misha this from the Stockholm Spectator:
According to Dagens Nyheter, the Swedish security services (Säpo), in collusion with Foreign Minister Leila Freivalds, have forced the website SD-Kuriren offline for publishing the Jyllands-Posten cartoons (SD-Kuriren is the house organ of the hard-right Swedish Democrats).This is what happens when your country lets any one claiming to be a 'political refugee' in. Do you really think its safe to let those who are persecuted in their home countries for being too radically Islamist?“We think that this was the best decision after we were contacted by the Foreign Ministry and Säpo,†Anna Larsson, vice president of hosting compant Levonline, told DN. Freivalds told DN that “it is terrible that a small group of extremists are exposing Swedes to danger [by reprinting the cartoons].â€
UPDATE: Via Michelle Malkin, here is an English translation of some the original article mentioned.
A Swedish Internet provider has shut down the website of an extreme right fringe party after authorities voiced concerns over a Prophet Mohammed drawing contest posted on the site.And don't miss Michelle's piece on the dhimmitude of the world here.Internet provider Levonline shut down the Sweden Democrats’ website late Thursday following discussions with both the foreign ministry and the National security police.
The foreign minister, Laila Freivalds however denies that the ministry ordered the internet provider to shut down the website. Speaking to reporters she said the foreign ministry and the security police simply informed the company of possible ramifications for Swedes abroad....
In a press release on the party’s website the party says it pulled the drawings after considering the consequences for Swedes living in the the muslim world.

Not a surprise. Lefties are more than happy to censor free speech if it's "offensive." Yet they constantly bedwet about "privacy" even though eavesdropping does nothing to curtail my freedom of speech (unless I'm a terrorist). Welcome to the upside down world of Liberalism.

Nailed it again. Liberalism is national suicide.

Oh those Euros! The race is on.
They are all so in love with their "progressive status quo" persona and lifestyle - they will negotiate themselves into irrelevance and oblivion.
Show your support this weekend - buy a case of Buds or Coors~!

The time has come: everybody who has a blog or a website needs to publish those cartoons.
Somebody needs to stand up to the howling mobs, and it isn't going to be government or elite media. Time for the individual to stand up and be counted.
