Al-Qaida leader offers bounty over Swedish cartoon cartoonist
Abu Omar al-Baghdadi issued rewards for harming Lars Vilks and Nerikes Allehanda editor in a Ramadan broadcast. He set $100,000 for serious harm, rising to $150,000 if Vilks is fatally harmed and $50,000 for the editor. Vilks in Sweden called for calm and freedom of expression. Nerikes Allehanda editor Ulf Johansson viewed the threat as explicit and alarming. Public reaction to the cartoon was largely muted despite protests in some Muslim countries.
