[Lars Vilks original cartoon of dog with head of Mohammed above.]
by Little Baby Ginn
What is it with Scandinavian cartoonists that upset Radical Muslims? I can see if someone wanted to trash Vilks for his inability to draw or his failure to be funny, but a bounty on his head?
The purported head of al-Qaeda in Iraq has offered a reward for the murder of a Swedish cartoonist over his drawing depicting the Prophet Muhammad.
The $100,000 (£49,310) reward would be raised by 50%, $150,000, if Lars Vilks was "slaughtered like a lamb" said the audio message aired on the internet.
