Muslims or Arabs are not above being derided. I’m glad actually that a mainstream comic strip gambled in poking a little fun at a group of people who, on the very extremist side of their culture, would kill a cartoonist for depicting a picture of Mohammed. There seems to be risk in making even a passing joke about Arabs & Muslims, and I applaud it. No person or group of people are above being comedic fodder.
