Did they not make fun of Islam before?

I'm not a committed viewer to the show (although I do think it's funny), so I wouldn't know.

I recall that there WAS a showdown before - and South Park blinked.

They did a little bit in Team America, World Police, but I doubt Islamic extremists figured it out it was them who made that movie.

Virtually every other episode is insulting to Jews or Christians, yet no threats. Interesting...

Good for them that they stand up to these crazy extremists. I'll watch the episode tonight. I'm sure its going to be hilarious. Islam needs to get out of the 15th century.
