We're starting to see protests in Pakistan over Sweden's recent entry into the world of controversial cartooning. It could only be a matter of time before we see our old friend again.
Supporters of the Islamic Shabab-e-Milli youth group burn an effigy of the Swedish prime minister in Karachi August 31, 2007.

For the record, the cartoons were only published in an online newspaper. It's nice to see the Associated Press ratcheting up the ol' Angst a touch with their creative editing. As always, more yummy effigy goodness follows the break.

Oh yeah. Silly me. I forgot about the truth-in-sentences photographers.
