PESHAWAR, Pakistan - A Pakistani cleric announced Friday a $1 million bounty for killing a cartoonist who drew Prophet Muhammad, as thousands joined street protests and Denmark temporarily closed its embassy and advised its citizens to leave the country.

Police confined the former leader of an Islamic militant group to his home to prevent him from addressing supporters over the cartoons, amid fears he could incite violence, after riots this week killed five people. [...]

In the northwestern Pakistan city of Peshawar, prayer leader Mohammed Yousaf Qureshi announced the bounty for killing a cartoonist to about 1,000 people outside the Mohabat Khan mosque.

Qureshi said the mosque and his religious school would give $25,000 and a car, while a local jewelers' association would give another $1 million. No representative of the association was available to confirm it had made the offer.

'This is a unanimous decision by all imams (prayer leaders) of Islam that whoever insults the prophet deserves to be killed and whoever will take this insulting man to his end, will get this prize,' Qureshi said. From Yahoo News.

Moron doesn't even know that it was 12 cartoonists. Also makes one wonder what these demonstrators are actually looking at.

Seems Imams in Pakistan (97% Muslim) where the average wage is only about a dollar an hour have money to burn. I wonder how many Muslim charities in the US send money over to Muslim Religious Schools in Pakistan? here's a list of charities that no doubt sponsor Islamic Jihad

Depictions of Mohammed throughout the ages here. Even the American Red Crescent gives money to Pakistan. I think it is time that we ask Congress to put a moratorium on all gift giving to so-called Muslim charities until the CIA can make a list of countries and organizations that are not sponsoring Islamic Terror.
