New York City's Metropolitan Museum of Art has preemptively pulled 3 ancient paintings of muhammed out of fear of offending the easily offended muslims.
We here at Report on Arrakis are not afraid to post pictures of muhammed.
Fatwa?
NY Post
The Metropolitan Museum of Art quietly pulled images of the Prophet Mohammed from its Islamic collection and may not include them in a renovated exhibition area slated to open in 2011, The Post has learned.
The museum said the controversial images -- objected to by conservative Muslims who say their religion forbids images of their holy founder -- were "under review."[...]
"This is typical of the Met -- trying to avoid any controversy," said a source with inside knowledge of the museum.
