Many Muslims have reacted violently to the cartoons lampooning Mohammed, first published in a Denmark newspaper. According to Danish correspondent Thomas Falbe, many of his countrymen are extremely uneasy. "There have been concrete threats against Denmark, and suggestions that Danes should be attacked. So many Danes feel the war on terror has moved closer to Denmark." Columnist Ralph Peters, while not excusing the violence, argued that printing the cartoons was reckless. "With freedom comes responsibility, and publishing those cartoons was irresponsible. They have created an enormous problem by insulting a religion gratuitously. The Europeans are always lecturing us, but they were irresponsible and people are dying because of it." The Factor wondered whether this latest violence might be a turning point. "We have had riots in France, bombings in Madrid, and now the Danes under assault. Will this finally be the step that wakes Europe up into helping in the war on terror?"

Arthur Butz, a tenured engineering professor at Northwestern University in Chicago, has openly agreed with Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's claim that the Holocaust is a myth. Professor Deborah Lipstadt reported that Butz has a long history of similar statements. "He's an anti-Semite, a racist, and if you read his works, he says the Jews made up the holocaust to get money. The guy shouldn't be allowed near students." The Factor agreed that Butz, tenured or not, should be removed from the classroom. "Stuff like this may be cause for dismissal because it is so virulent and causes such a poisonous atmosphere within the college."

Miami priest Rev. Neil Doherty has been accused of raping a 10-year boy almost a decade ago. In its defense, the archdiocese claims the young man should have reported the abuse much earlier. The alleged victim's lawyer Jeffrey Herman said the church is blaming the victim. "The church was told that Doherty was drugging and raping boys. Now they're going to blame this boy for being raped when he was ten years old. The strategy is that if we put enough pressure on this victim, maybe other victims won't come forward. This is shameless." The Factor agreed that the church's behavior seems tactless. "I don't understand what the archdiocese is doing. If the boy was molested he should be compensated. And if the church knew the priest was a molester and didn't take action, they should pay damages."

The Mexican Army stands accused of helping drug runners sneak narcotics into the United States. Texas lawman Kelly Legarreta witnessed an incident at the border last month. "I saw a military-style Humvee inside the US border, occupied by two men in Mexican military uniforms. The vehicle got stuck, they took out the marijuana, then burned the vehicle." Texas Congressman Michael McCall described the situation as dire. "The violence at the border is getting to the point where we are in a crisis. Whether you think they were military or cartels dressed as military, they have weapons and are a serious threat. This is getting out of control."

As Coretta Scott King was laid to rest in Atlanta, Fox News analysts Juan Williams and Tony Snow joined The Factor to discuss the state of black America. "Educational attainment is up and income is up," Williams pointed out. "The problem is that we still have about a third of black American in poverty. And the out-of-wedlock birth statistics are a tragedy." Snow agreed that while battles have been won, too few blacks are taking advantage. "A lot of bigotry has been banished, but we have a host of problems - it begins with the breakup of families and includes lousy schools. In a lot of inner city schools, there's actually pressure to fail. There is a huge cultural problem." The Factor pointed to the staggering 69% of black babies born to single mothers. "Educated blacks are doing well - buying homes, working in productive areas. But the poor blacks, mostly from fractured families, are lagging behind."

Factor producers have been searching for ordinary Americans with strong opinions and powerful vocal chords. A handful have been selected to go one-on-one with Bill on the subject of their choice. First up - 47-year old Caroline Cassagnol of New Mexico, who took issue with Bill over the treatment of terror suspects. She began by laying out a broad definition of torture. "Torture is anything that subjects a detainee to unreasonable fear or cruelty, including the threat of death. Some of these people qualify for the Geneva Convention and should be afforded those rights." Cassagnol added that the US argued the other side during earlier conflicts. "This country was screaming about people who detained, tortured, and left their prisoners to rot in prison." The Factor argued that Cassagnol wants America's enemies to be given all the rights afforded to common criminals. "You're saying that when you capture suspected terrorists, you should just be able to ask them questions. This is a war, and if you don't wage it as a war you're going to lose it." The Factor also praised Cassagnol for a stellar performance in a tough arena. "You did very well and put a lot of my professional guests to shame."
