Nothing wrong with hosting that picture 
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Muh-hund-original-rondellliten.JPG ). 
It's really about where it's used.

Should it be used in the article on Muhammad? Heck no. But in the 
article 
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lars_Vilks_Muhammad_drawings_controversy ) 
describing the controversy that arised around that very picture? Sure 
enough, because it serves an encyclopedic purpose there.

Regards,
Oliver
