U.N., EU to apologize to Islam for cartoons

And leave it to the U.N. and E.U. to roll over and play dead to the terrorist tactics of islam. Let's send islam a message that killing, burning and destroying things gets them what they want. That way the next time they want something, they already know how to get it.
