the debate is ongoing over at the AWL's site. pete has Responded to my original post on this issue here and here, and has been responded to in turn by disillusioned kid and myself.

this site now seems to be the target for random complaints by disgruntled AWL members, as attested to by a comment from janine who says

If it is 'misguided' of the AWL to publish the Danish cartoons, why is it OK for you to publish a link to them?!

as far as i'm aware i haven't, but if janine can find me that link i'll retract that statement. i think it should be fairly obvious that context is important in this issue. the context of me publishing a link to something amidst text giving my opinion on it is rather different to someone else publishing the actual cartoons as a political statement. if you disagree, i'd like to know on what grounds.
