Muhammad Cartoons

Apart from all of these controversies have been made about those cartoons, this question could be suggested that if there has been a similar issue about some other major religions like Jewry or Christianity or Buddhism, would these justifications about "freedom of expression" work as much as now?! It could be surveyed that have such a cartoon been published about Jesus, Muses or Jhvh or even the Pope?
I think what European Muslims want is the very rights that other Europeans already have, just like Christians, Jews, and non-believers. It seems that European Muslims are addressed by their governors as “Europeans”, just when they rely on those Muslims support!
Europe could make this image correct this time, if its governors want the Individual Rights to be respected in a real manner.
