08/31/2007: "Sweden censors website over Islam cartoons"

The Swedish government has moved to shut down the website of a far-right political party's newspaper over cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad.

The site's host, Levonline, pulled the plug on the website of the Swedish Democrats' SD-Kuriren newspaper after consulting with the government...

The Swedish Democrats are a small anti-immigrant party with no representatives in parliament, but a few local elected officials.
