They're actually putting Salman Khan in prison?! And that hit-and-run thing is still up in the air, what?

Spooks isn't bowing to the whole racism thing. Which, I think, is good. Because as someone pointed out, if it had been some IRA guy, no-one would blink twice. [S5 spoilers].

From Thandie Newton to Eva Green - actual new Bond Girl? And Crash writer Paul Haggis has been brought in to repair the script.

Rock on, Spooks. I saw the previous episode with the school bombing, and I thought it handled the issue very constructively and non-black&white. If they pull that off with the new episode, then... *throws confetti*

Yeah, exactly; I thought that episode was fantastically well handled. Here's hoping for more good form.

The Danish cartoons offended me, too, simply because of the content, and I'm not even Muslim. That being said, I think the aftermath of the incident has become farcical.

Exactly; you're very right. I don't have strong views on the issue at all, but I do think it would be erroneous to be overly cautious with regards to one group and then ignore every other group that there has ever been.
