Draw Mohammed & Hide

Seattle cartoonist Molly Norris, the artist who declared May 20, 2010, "Everybody Draw Mohammed Day" went into hiding under the advice of the FBI. Seattle media reports say she has changed her name, left her employer and basically gone into a "witness protection" program where her whole identity is wiped away. It's all because of a fatwa (decree to execute) issued against her this summer by Islamic extremist Anwar al-Awlaki, a Yemeni-American cleric. On behalf of the religious arts community, our prayers are with Molly.
