Aljazeera: "Arab journalists arrested over cartoons"

The story goes on and on:
Algeria and Yemen have arrested journalists working for newspapers that have reprinted cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad that led to protests around the world.

On Sunday, Algeria closed two newspapers and arrested their editors for printing the images of the cartoons of the Prophet.

Kahel Bousaad and Berkane Bouderbala, respectively editors of the pro-Islamist weeklies, Errisala and Iqraa, were detained last week and will appear before an investigating judge in Algiers on Monday, staff of the two Arabic newspapers said.

A member of Iqraa's staff said: "The cartoons published in our weekly were (deliberately) fogged. They were accompanied by an article denouncing them."
Did they think they were going to get away with it? They were probably Zionist spies.
