Jyllands-Posten’s cartoons keep Denmark on the terrorist map
Terrorist network al-Qaeda has released an official death list, naming nine people who have mocked the prophet Mohammed – three of whom are Danish. The list was published in Inspire, the organisation’s first ever English language magazine.
It is now five years since Jyllands-Posten newspaper published their now notorious cartoons of the prophet, but it would seem the terrorist network has not forgotten the incident, as the three people on the list were all involved in the drawings.
They are the newspaper’s former editor-in-chief Carsten Juste, its culture editor Flemming Rose, and the cartoonist Kurt Westergaard, who drew the now infamous picture of the prophet Mohammed with a bomb in his turban.
Terrorist experts have confirmed that the magazine and the list has definitely been compiled by al-Qaeda and, according to Swedish terrorist expert Magnus Ranstorp, it should be taken seriously. He said that it is worrying that three Danes appear on the list and that it is somewhat surprising that Juste is named.
Both Rose and Westergaard are due to publish books about the cartoon crisis later this year.
