Bravery Resurfaces in Spain

I agree with the guy on the right. You tell 'em, Spanish woman! From Reuters:
A woman who lost her husband in the 2004 Madrid train bombings displayed an infamous cartoon mocking the Prophet Mohammad on her T-shirt in front of 29, mostly Muslim, suspects on trial for the attacks on Monday.

The woman's white T-shirt showed Mohammad wearing a bomb as a turban -- one of a series published by Danish newspaper Jyllands-Posten which unleashed violent protests by some Muslims last year.
Spain could learn a lot from this woman. This act falls somewhere between giving them the finger and laughing at them, and sticking them with a blade. Since stabbing them is not legal, I'd say she made the most poignant statement allowed by law.

This is nothing like 'speaking truth to power' to the evil BushCo like the hippies do. This woman is actually risking her life to make this statement. Let's hope she's part of an increasingly less silent majority.

(seen at the Jawas and Hotair.)

ps. Who is that guy in the photo? In the original he was giving thumbs up in front of Farenheit 911 posters, but I thought he was a Republican Congressman.
