Because All God's Children Need Traveling Shoes..

When I was a kid, local businesses would sponsor little league teams or donate prizes for a school raffle.  In Peshawar, Pakistan local businesses are pitching in to fund a $1 million bounty for killing a cartoonist who drew Muhammad. According to the AP:

"In the northwestern Pakistan city of Peshawar, prayer leader Mohammed Yousaf Qureshi announced the bounty for killing a cartoonist to about 1,000 people outside the Mohabat Khan mosque.

Qureshi said the mosque and his religious school would give $25,000 and a car, while a local jewelers' association would give another $1 million."

Talk about a show of community spirit! I particularly like the part about the car. I guess the "Prophet" understands that you can't really instigate global Jihad without wheels.....

Update: Michelle Malkin has more
