A internet, os cartoons e o Islão

"Citizens throughout the Arab world are protesting caricatures of Muhammad first published in Danish newspapers. The conflict would not have occurred without a means of easily transporting information around the globe. The cartoon story is not particularly an internet story, since opponents of the depictions flew copies from Denmark to the Middle East. Yet, the internet is the biggest reason why cultural artifacts are readily available around the world today. Because of the internet, clashes between the sensibilities of different societies will only increase."
