In this week's Economist, there is an article about the new Somali, Muslim, pro Al Qaeda president.  Even thought the president is part of the Islamic courts Union, which is a pro Al Qaeda group, there is an even more extreme group called Al Shabab.  The Economist tries to say that the new president, Sharif Ahmed, is somehow reasonable and possible to work with.  They have a picture that shows masked and gun carrying Al Shabab terrorists and the caption says,

"They want the new president to fail."  This is a clear comparison to Rush Limbaugh, the American right wing radio talk show host.  The Economist thinks that right wing Americans are just the same as Nazi, Muslim terrorists who cut people's heads off and want to convert or kill all non Muslims. 

I just thought it was important to point out how mentally ill most of the European press is.  They got along really well with their friends in the American and Muslim media.
