No evidence to show cartoons were bogus

YOUR columnist Ryle Dwyer (Examiner, Feb 11) tells us that a delegation of Danish imams distributed a booklet with an extra three bogus offensive images of the Prophet Mohammed (peace be upon him) when they went to the Middle East.

Ryle Dwyer tells us these three cartoons never appeared in the Danish newspaper Jyllands-Posten, and that these three bogus images were obviously included in the booklet in order to cause real offence, unlike the other 12 cartoons which, he says, would be unlikely to offend anyone.

But did the imams ever claim that the extra three images had been published by Jyllands-Posten? And were these images really bogus and only included deliberately to inflame Middle Eastern Muslim opinion, as your columnist suggested?
