After reading about Denmark and their problems with the Arabs I have
found a few ways to support the country.

OK....stop the special bus at the next corner, open the window, and
tell me about your delusion:

1) A (typically) stupid Christian publication starts this whole mess
by publishing a picture that offends an (equally) stupid bunch of
Muslims.

2) The Danish government responds by saying it supports free speech,
instead of saying "Hey...you got a problem with that cartoon? Take it
up with these shmucks". By doing so, it creates an image of solidarity
with the shmucks. The audience is...guess who? Religious fanatics in
the Middle East, precisely equivalent to the morons who published the
cartoons. No brains on either side. Free speech and separation of
church & state? Alien concepts. The Muslim shmucks assume that the
Danish government is arm in arm with the Christian shmucks. Great.

3) The Danish government sees its holdings around the world being
attacked, and you think we should say one friggin' word in its
support, when it could've distanced itself from the PRIVATELY RUN
PUBLICATION that started the mess?

If Forbes Magazine, or Time or Newseek had published the cartoons
first, you would've come up with all sorts of reasons why "it's
different". But, a Christian publication somehow deserves "support"
when its actions generate conflict.

Bull****.


i forgot

islam - new religion of liberals

No, robot. You assume a Christian newspaper is somehow superior because
the details of that religion's sins occurred just a bit too far in the
past to be accurately chronicled by web links. Too bad. The two
religions are the same.


yes, Christians are running around burning down buildings when anyone
makes fun of them. Plus, most of the papers were not Christian. Don't
turn this around like some Christian newspaper is targeting Islam.

How about the daily jew cartoons that Islamic newspaper publish. Where is
the outrage there?

Islamists are idiots.


Perhaps Israelis (and Jews in general) realize that cartoons don't matter.
If they did, there'd be a whole slew of American political cartoonists in
prison by now, or at least their phones would be tapped. I'm not defending
the current violence against Danish properties, by the way. I *do* object
to any attempt on your president's part to make political hay out of the
situation.


Sort of like Jimmy Carter and other Democrats did during Mrs. King's funeral
yesterday? What a shameful display on their part.
