COPENHAGEN, Denmark - A Danish court Thursday dismissed a defamation lawsuit against a newspaper that first published the Prophet Muhammad cartoons that touched off protests in the Islamic world.
The City Court in Aarhus rejected claims by seven Danish Muslim groups who said the 12 drawings printed in Jyllands-Posten were meant to insult the Prophet and make a mockery of Islam.
Islamic law forbids any depiction of the Prophet, even positive ones, to prevent idolatry.
Yeah, well Denmark isn't ruled by Islamic law - thank goodness.
