We should create a "political costs" page: italian minister Roberto Calderoli resigned, change of Iran-Denmark relations etc.--TheFEARgod 13:19, 19 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Nigeria

The article only mentions Muslims torching Christians. To my knowledge revenge attacks by Christians have happened in the southern/central part. MX44 10:10, 28 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Some of this information is in "International reactions to the Jyllands-Posten Muhammad cartoons controversy"

I think it would be fair to include, at the start, the ratio of protestors-non, as misconceptions about that the 150 people were all innocents killed by protestors. Some of our listings here just say "three people were killed in Lahore", which further complicates things :\ Sherurcij (talk) (Terrorist Wikiproject) 00:26, 27 April 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Misleading/innacurate human cost figures

The total figure of 139 reached by cartoon body count DOES include those killed (christian AND muslim) in the nigerian riots - This needs to be corrected. [1]

I agree with Sherurcij the impression is given in the article that it was the cartoon protestors that killed 139 people, whereas upon closer scrutiny a significant proportion of the deaths seem to be the protestors themselves.

Finally, there is a contradiction between the penultimate statement in "human costs" and 139 figure, and it needs a citation.Wikipidian 06:06, 7 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] summary?

How about an introduction at the begenning of the article with a notice about the bodycount, global economic imact and so?
