Jyllands Posten apologises to Muslims for publishing Mohammed cartoons
Carsten Juste, editor in chief of Jyllands Posten, the Danish paper that published 12 cartoons of the prophet Mohammed in September 2005, apologised to Muslims for the hurt caused by the cartoons in a letter presented to the Algerian press.
He wrote: We apologise for the great misunderstanding caused by the publication of these cartoons representing Mohammed that have nurtured violent feelings towards Denmark ... We never recognised the extreme sensibility of Muslims living in Denmark, and indeed Muslims worldwide, in connection with this issue."
This is not the first apology that Mr. Juste has made for the cartoons (see previous posting).
