Here's an interesting twist on the OIC push to penalize blasphemy & 
insulting false prophet Mo etc - the Saudi Shura (consultative council) 
has not backed the move, as it would give legitimacy to "pagan" religions, 
which the Shura doesn't recognise.

As I've said, be careful what [Muslims] wish for a the head they lose may 
be their own, and other Bad Wolves are on the prowl, even if they don't 
get the attention that Mo's followers attract.
