Well, first the UN has to send them a letter telling them how angry they are with Iran.
All your embacy are belong to us!
No, the Israelis need to raise above the stupidity of the Embassy burners. This will embarrass the idiots more.
HPL:
Dear Iran,
…You have been very naughty and we don’t think we can allow you to proceed with your Nuclear Program.
Your Friends,
The Rest of the World
They won’tl believe the Israelis are wimps if they don’t set fire to stuff?
Is anybody else hoping they make some funny cartoons that translate well into English? I love me some good tasteless cartoons and jokes!
I’m sure the Israelis are welcome to burn down any embassy of a Muslim country in Israel… except Egypt.

Heck, I’d love to see this “Battle of the Tasteless Cartoons” continue.
For a response to Iran’s Holocaust cartoons, maybe “The West” could respond with side-splitting jokes about the 12/26/2003 Iranian earthquake which killed 30,000.
Heck, maybe the team of Zucker Abrams Zucker could make an entire movie of the tragedy - in their “Airplane” comedic style.
I think the Iranians will be quite surprised how tasteless we can be.
On a more serious note, it is strictly forbidden to show any type of image of Mohammed (be it flattering or unflattering), because as the prophet said, it would lead to idolatry, which he didn’t want. Fair enough.
If that is the case, why is Mohammed the most popular name in the Middle East? Isn’t that practice a form of idolatry?
Maybe they should make a sequel to “The Artistocrats” with this material… Someone alert Paul Provenza and Penn Gillette!
Glad they didn’t print my cartoon of Mohammed getting tag teamed by the cowboys from Brokeback Mountain, that would have really pissed some people off.
That’s the wrongest thing I’ve ever heard.
They were shepherds in Brokeback Mountain, not cowboys.
…and the Basque shepherd says, “I wish it were dark.”
Actually, what’s really pissing them off are the extra three grossly offensive ones that the newspaper never printed, but which the Danish imams added to their pamphlet, presumably because the real 12 weren’t outrageous enough to excite the type of reaction they wanted. (Question: Why are the imams allowed to publish these cartoons without censure? Surely they are equally guilty?)
Uhhh, OK. I can see that. All the Knesset (however it’s spelled), the Prime Minister, and all the generals are hanging out drinking beer at the local roadhouse, and the PM says “hey y’all! Watch this!” That’s when he draws the cartoon on a bar napkin and mails it off to Denmark and Iran
ROFL
The Iranian embassy? What is it?
It’s a big building, full of guys wearing towels on their heads, but that’s not important now.
Shirley you don’t mean that?
He does, and stop calling him Shirley!
I knew I picked the wrong week to give up opium!
Grieving Relative: How soon before you can rescue the earthquake victims?
Rescuer: I can’t tell.
Grieving Relative: You can tell me. I’m a relative. Well can’t you take a guess?
Rescuer: Not for another 2 hours.
Grieving Relative: You mean you can’t take a guess for another 2 hours?
Now that you mention it, I have to give the Christian folk on these boards huge credit. The way we sling around phrases like “Jesus fucking Christ on a purple pogo stick” without fear of the Reader being bombed is admirable.
