Iran accuses Israel of being responsible for the Danish cartoon controversy before the Gazan Arabs' election of Hamas to lead them (via
IRIS Blog):
The furious international row over the publication of cartoons satirising the prophet Muhammad intensified today when Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, claimed it was an Israeli conspiracy motivated by anger over Hamas's win in the Palestinian elections.
They're also severing financial ties with Denmark:
Iran today also announced it was suspending all trade and economic ties with Denmark in protest of the caricatures. The move came after the EU had warned Iran that boycotting Danish goods would place further strain on already frosty relations.
If they want to stop their trade agreements, fine. Butter cookies are too good for bigots to be allowed to taste. And it's a shame that their kids won't be allowed to play with Lego either.

This story was born long time ago..Atleast I read many comments about coming from muslims about the cartoons.
Looks like internet connection in Iran is verry slow if they said only this days about that.
I thought it was Feith, Libby, and Wolfowitz on the secret LIKUDPHONE who did it
