Ehrn, no, but last time someone threatened to bomb something in this neighbourhood, they wanted to bomb norway because denmark had troops in Iraq. Though, they may have improved on geography since, but would you take a bet on it ?Originally posted by chegitz guevara
Why? Are they Americans?With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.

Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...Comment

Haven't you learned anything from this thread? All of you nordics are a like to them. Even Finns who are linguistically different but who have a similiar flag, live in the same region, and are one of those dastardly nonmuslim foreigners.Originally posted by Tattila the Hun

In an open letter, Jyllands-Posten issues apology for cartoons having "indisputably offended many Muslims".
Link to open letter
Honourable Citizens of The Muslim World
Morgenavisen Jyllands-Posten is a strong proponent of democracy and freedom of religion. The newspaper respects the right of any human being to practise his or her religion. Serious misunderstandings in respect of some drawings of the Prophet Mohammed have led to much anger and, lately, also boycott of Danish goods in Muslim countries.
Please allow me to correct these misunderstandings.
On 30 September last year, Morgenavisen Jyllands-Posten published 12 different cartoonists' idea of what the Prophet Mohammed might have looked like. The initiative was taken as part of an ongoing public debate on freedom of expression, a freedom much cherished in Denmark.
In our opinion, the 12 drawings were sober. They were not intended to be offensive, nor were they at variance with Danish law, but they have indisputably offended many Muslims for which we apologize.
Since then a number of offensive drawings have circulated in The Middle East which have never been published in Morgenavisen Jyllands-Posten and which we would never have published, had they been offered to us. We would have refused to publish them on the grounds that they violated our ethical code.
Morgenavisen Jyllands-Posten attaches importance to upholding the highest ethical standards based upon the respect of our fundamental values. It is so much more deplorable, therefore, that these drawings were presented as if they had anything to do with Morgenavisen Jyllands-Posten.
Maybe because of culturally based misunderstandings, the initiative to publish the 12 drawings has been interpreted as a campaign against Muslims in Denmark and the rest of the world.
I must categorically dismiss such an interpretation. Because of the very fact that we are strong proponents of the freedom of religion and because we respect the right of any human being to practise his or her religion, offending anybody on the grounds of their religious beliefs is unthinkable to us.
That this happened was, consequently, unintentional.
As a result of the debate that has been going on about the drawings, we have met with representatives of Danish Muslims, and these meetings were held in a positive and constructive spirit. We have also sought in other ways to initiate a fruitful dialogue with Danish Muslims.
It is the wish of Morgenavisen Jyllands-Posten that various ethnic groups should live in peace and harmony with each other and that the debates and disagreements which will always exist in a dynamic society should do so in an atmosphere of mutual respect.
For that reason, Morgenavisen Jyllands-Posten has published many articles describing the positive aspects of integration, for example in a special supplement entitled The Contributors. It portrayed a number of Muslims who have had success in Denmark. The supplement was rewarded by the EU Commission.
Morgenavisen Jyllands-Posten takes exception to symbolic acts suited to demonise specific nationalities, religions and ethnic groups.
Sincerely yours

This is about Muslims feeling the whole world is against them, I don't see why you need bring other faiths into it.Originally posted by chegitz guevara

Neither Christians, Jewish people or Hindus are so singularly hypersensitive about their own culture as are the Muslims.

Well, yesterday as a result of the boycott, they managed to shut down a Danish dairy plant in Saudi Arabia, turning 800 employees, most of them locals, into unemployed people.
But of course this is nothing compared to the murder of Theo van Gogh, the fatwa on Salman Rusdie, or the murder of his interpreter. Not yet..Comment

Actually, it's about Muslims feeling Denmark is against them. I don't see why you need to drag the rest of the world into it.Originally posted by Winston

Another goody is that apparently these protestsers now represent the whole Muslim world, while previously you got all worked up that the Danish Imams didn't represent the whole Muslim community in Denmark.
You can't have it both ways.
Hypersensitivity to ones culture certainly isn't reserved for Muslims only. They are present among all faiths, political systems etc.
It would appear for instance that the burning of a Danish flag is as big an insult as the cartoons printed. There is a remarkable simularity in calls for boycotts of Muslim goods, countries etc., supported by claims of inherit Muslim evil."post reported"Winston, on the barricades for freedom of speech

No I didn't. Get your facts straight/stop fabricating, to put it nicely. I said they misrepresented the facts of this case while touring the Middle East to raise support for their protests. They have admitted this themselves.Originally posted by germanos

But it's true the Imams don't represent all Muslims here, though they frequently claim they are.Comment

I'm going to get some Lurpak as well. Denmark with or without expensive butter
I will never understand why some people on Apolyton find you so clever. You're predictable, mundane, and a google-whore and the most observant of us all know this. Your battles of "wits" rely on obscurity and whenever you fail to find something sufficiently obscure, like this, you just act like a 5 year old. Congratulations, molly.
