      • Right. As I thought. More blatant lies and insults from UR. This is a mod? Add it to list, I suppose.

          OTOH, we don't get our panties in a twist when our taboos are broken abroad. We dislike the antisemitism among the Arabic edia, but we don't physically attack them on that ground. I also don't think there would be violent groups arising against a country where child porn is considered acceptable.



          True, no one has burned the Syrian or Thailand embassies in Europe...

          • Well, they're back to bombing each other's shrines, so I guess it's all over now. Move along, there's nothing to see here.

              I'm afraid I'm not really keen on learning Danish to find something that is so prevalent "all across the West".
              Nobody excuses the violence Spiff. Nobody sane in the West (or wanting to be taken for sane) actually says "gee, its really great they firebombed the embassy, i hope they firebomb some more". Thats not how its done, and you know it. Just like nobody said they approved of the the attack on the World Trade Center, or even the murder of civilians in Tel Aviv.

              Its always "of course violence is wrong (just like American violence in Iraq, Israeli violence, the violence of settlers tearing down olive trees, the implicit violence of the imperialist discource, etc) BUT its understandable, these cartoons were not just offensive, but a racist offense against a muslims, perpetrated by racist society, who are deeply intolerant, who are deeply hypocritical, printed in a fascist newspaper, who could have expected any other response, etc, etc, etc.

              Thats how its done. The classis "we deplore BUT". And thats been done by quite a few "sane" people.
