Danish, Anyone?


I'm not sure how many of you heard about the Danish Cartoon Story, so... in a nutshell, a Danish newspaper published some editorial cartoons of Mohammed that were not as... flattering as many Muslims would have appreciated. They threw a hissy fit ( which is their right- free speech is still allowed in Denmark). IIRC, Denmark responded by saying, in Danish of course, "too bad. so sad."

For some reason, the Religion of Peace has a problem with people not caving in to their every whim. And they're taking action. The Saudi ambassador has been recalled from Denmark. Libya is shutting down its embassy. Two international Islamic organizations are calling for a UN resolution "banning attacks on religious beliefs" (as long as those attacks are aimed at Islam.... Islamofacists can attack other religions all they want). They're threatening suicide attacks in Denmark. Now, several Arab countries are boycotting Danish goods.

Here is a partial list of companies being boycotted.

Denmark is taking a stand for free speech and freedom of religion. Go, support them. You know you want to have a Calsberg or two, then have some Aalborg Akvavit with herring on rye chasers along with some Havarti. (OK, granted, I'll probably pass on the herring...)

Now, shoo... go shopping...
