Moslims beginnen nu elkaar te doden. Frenzy ten top
Muslim protesters shout slogans during a demonstration in Kabul, Afghanistan
Some 200 protesters took to the streets in the Afghan capital Kabul
At least five people have been killed in Afghanistan as demonstrations against cartoons satirising the Prophet Muhammad swept across the country.
Two people died when protesters turned on the American airbase at Bagram, even though the US has had no involvement in the cartoons' publication.
[je zou denken dat ze in Afgh. wel grotere problemen hebben. Maar die zijn natuurlijk te lastig. En Denemarken maar braaf meebetalen aan de teringzooi die de Afghanen er zelf van gemaakt hebben.]
In Somalia, a teenage boy was killed and several others were injured after protesters attacked the police.
Rallies have also taken place in Iran, Thailand, Indonesia, India and Gaza.
They followed attacks on Danish embassies in Syria and Lebanon over the weekend. The cartoons were first published in a Danish newspaper.
Tensions continue to escalate around the world:
* Hundreds of protesters surround the Danish embassy in Tehran, throwing petrol bombs and rocks. Earlier 200 people had pelted the Austrian embassy in the city
[Oostenrijk? :confused: Haider is met jullie! IAEA connectie zeker]
* Iran's government says it is cutting trade ties with Demark, Iranian television reports
* Norway demands compensation from Syria after its embassy in Damascus was set on fire on Saturday
* The Turkish and Spanish prime ministers make a joint plea for respect and calm in an article in the International Herald Tribune
* In Indonesia, protesters target the Danish and US consulates in Surabaya, the country's second largest city. Protests are also held in the capital, Jakarta
* Riot police in the Indian capital, Delhi, fire tear gas and water cannons to disperse hundreds of student protesters
* Shops and businesses across Indian-administered Kashmir close after a general strike is called in protest at the drawings
* In Thailand, protesters shout "God is great" and stamp on Denmark's flag outside the country's embassy in Bangkok, the Associated Press news agency reports
[Thaise moslims hebben mot met hun eigen regering, lijkt me wat dringender]
* There are protests again outside the European Union offices in Gaza, following demonstrations there last week.
'Test our feelings'
Hundreds of people took part in the morning demonstration in Afghanistan's Laghman province, in a second day of protests in the city.
Demonstrators shouted "death to Denmark" and "death to France". They called for the expulsion of diplomats and soldiers, who were sent by both countries as part of international efforts in the US-led "war on terror".
"They want to test our feelings," protester Mawli Abdul Qahar Abu Israra told the BBC.
"They want to know whether Muslims are extremists or not. Death to them and to their newspapers," he said.
:( self-defeating
In Bagram district, a peaceful protest in the morning turned violent when around 300 "bandits and gangsters" tried to enter the US base, local police chief Mawlana Sayed Khel told the BBC.
A shoot-out with police left two protesters dead, and six police officers injured, he said.
Elsewhere, hundreds protested in Kandahar, Mazar-e-Sharif and the north-eastern province of Takhar. Some 200 demonstrators gathered outside the Danish embassy in the capital, Kabul.
Afghan President Hamid Karzai reiterated his condemnation of the cartoons and called on western nations to take "a strong measure" to ensure such cartoons do not appear again. "It's not good for anybody," he told CNN.
'Defending freedoms'
In the autonomous Somali region of Puntland, demonstrators marched through the port city of Bosaso, shouting anti-Western slogans and converging on the UN and international aid agency buildings.
[Waar je het voor doet. Somalië heeft collectief zelfmoord gepleegd, en nu nog even de hulporganisaties eruit gooien. Goe gedaan. Leuk voor de ongetwijfeld 99% van de Somali's die er niks mee te maken hebben. ]
A 14-year-old boy was reportedly trampled underfoot as police fired into the air to try and disperse an increasingly angry crowd.
Peaceful protests were held in several other Somali towns.
