Sculpture by controverial artist set on fire
Lars Vilks has lit the fuse of resistance to PC and the Islamists. It's time that the western world heed his message and wake up to creeping Islamification. The west cannot allow itself to be controlled by Islam. To do so will be to give up 2,000 years of civilization and come under the rule of a 7th century totalitarian regime. Above are several of Vilks’ Modoggie drawings.

Sculpture by controverial artist set on fire
A sculpture created by the artist at the centre of the Muhammad cartoon controversy was set alight in southern Sweden on Thursday night.
Emergency service were alerted to the blaze shortly after midnight. The fire was quickly brought under control but the roundabout was temporarily closed for traffic due to the risk of the structure collapsing.
The wooden 'roundabout dog' was constructed by Lars Vilks together with a group of high school students from Trelleborg. When completed in June of this year, the seven-metre canine was erected in the middle of a roundabout on the outskirts of the town.
Police said they were classifying the crime as vandalism and did not yet have any supects.
Earlier this year, Sweden was gripped by a 'roundabout dog' craze - hastily constructed wooden dogs began appearing in the middle of traffic circles nationwide as an alternative to the often unpopular and costly public artworks commissioned by local councils.
Lars Vilks' contribution to the guerrilla art movement has been subjected to several arson attempts since the publication in Nerikes Allehanda of a cartoon depicting the Muslim prophet Muhammad as a roundabout dog.
