Lars Vilks, the Swedish cartoonist who set off an international uproar in 2007 by drawing the Prophet Mohammed’s head on the body of a dog, was attacked during a lecture at a university in Stockholm on Tuesday. "The man was sat in the first row and suddenly he rushed at me. He punched me in the head and I lost my glasses," said Vilks, who was lucky to escape, by his own description, as only a “little bruised.” Police said that up to 20 people tried to attack Vilks, and they eventually resorted to tear gas to break up the protests. Al Qaeda has offered $100,000 to anyone who murders Vilks.
