Jihad Jane’s Target Was Swedish Cartoonist


Bookmark and Share

Colleen R. LaRose, a suburban Philadelphia woman who called herself Jihad Jane online has been charged with using the Internet to recruit jihadist fighters and help terrorists overseas.

The blond hair, blue eyed woman’s goal was to kill cartoonist Lars Vilks a Swedish artist vilified by Muslims because of his drawings of the Prophet Muhammad.  This is just the latest string of plots to kill the cartoonist.  In September 2007, al-Qaeda leaders set a price on Vilks’ head.

His “alleged crime” was to draw a cartoon of the Prophet Mohammad as a “roundabout dog”, a type of street installation popular in Sweden where sculptures are often placed in the middle of roundabaouts.

LaRose has been in custody since Oct. 15. She was in court the next day but didn’t enter a plea.  So, it’s been about five months and this is just getting into the news.

Danish Cartoonist Attacked

Bookmark and Share Controversial Danish cartoonist Kurt Westergaard had to hide in his panic room with his 5 year old daughter Friday night as a man wielding an ax and knife intent on killing him broke into his home.

Kurt WestergaardWestergaard came to international attention over controversy with his political cartoon depiction of Muhammad wearing a bomb as a turban with a lit fuse.  Westergaard said he wanted his cartoon to say that some people exploited the prophet to legitimize terrorism. However, many in the Muslim world interpreted the drawing as depicting their prophet as a terrorist.

The depiction sparked an uproar among Muslims in early 2006 after newspapers reprinted the images months later as a matter of free speech.  The cartoon was first published by the Danish newspaper Morgenavisen Jyllands-Posten in September 2005.

Since that depiction there have been numerous attempts and threats on his life from Muslim extremists and Danish police have arrested numerous individuals.  After three arrests in 2008, Westergaard had this to say:

Of course I fear for my life after the Danish Security and Intelligence Service informed me of the concrete plans of certain people to kill me. However, I have turned fear into anger and indignation. It has made me angry that a perfectly normal everyday activity which I used to do by the thousand was abused to set off such madness.

Police were alerted to the incident where they confronted the suspect having to shoot him in the leg and hand.  He appeared in court Saturday charged with attempted assassination of both the cartoonist and a police officer.  Authorities said he was a 28-year-old Somali who has legal residency in Denmark and lives in Sjaelland, near Copenhagenuthorities said he was a 28-year-old Somali who has legal residency in Denmark and lives in Sjaelland, near Copenhagen but would not identify the subject.  Some reports claim he has ties with an Al-Qaeda affiliated group.
