OH! I feel so strongly about this! I have actually been designing a logo for support of Denmark myself!

I'm going to get this on my site asap.

This whole situation is outrageous!

And Clinton, the EU and the UN putting pressure on Denmark to not publish the political cartoons.

Can we spell C-O-W-A-R-D!

Thanks for this post!
(my bloods boiling over this)

I guess it all comes down to what Robert E. Howard said when he created the character of Conan the Barbarian:
“Civilized men are more discourteous than savages because they know they can be impolite without having their skulls split, as a general thing".

To most “civilized” post-Enlightenment Westerners, Islamic Law (mainly based on the Hebrew Old Testament) is straightforwardly barbaric and repulsive in itself- see Hegel, Renan and other mainstream 19th century European thinkers who have contributed to shaping our view of Islam and the Orient.

It’s sad to see this kind of cultural stereotyping still persists to that day, on both side of the cultural/religious divide for that matter: that hapless Danish cartoonist is as backward as his Saudi censors and probably views them as fanatical fools; whereas they’re probably utterly convinced that a second-tier Scandinavian newspaper must be part of some “Occidental Masonic conspiracy” designed to destroy Allah and his beloved bearded vicar!

But it wasn’t always so Manichean: ironically, throughout the Middle-Ages and until the 18th century, many libertine Western aristocrats and free-thinking philosophers were actually attracted by Islam precisely because they viewed it as a more rationalist and modern faith than Christianity: after the defeat of Napoleon’s republican “Grand Army” and the return to power of the rightwing Catholic kings of France, several of Napoleon’s revolutionary generals choose to move to Cairo and some even converted to Islam.

But this was then…the times have changed and two hundred years of fanatical Wahhabi activism boosted by Saudi Arabia’s immense oil revenues, compounded by France and England’s brutal colonial practices in the Middle-East and North Africa, and America’s unwavering backing of Israel’s war crimes have succeeding in tilting the Mohammedan collective psyche towards a very reactionary interpretation of Islam, which in many ways is simply a natural defense reflex albeit an obscurantist and backward one…

Isaac Newton's Third Law of Motion states: “To every action there is always opposed an equal reaction: or the mutual actions of two bodies upon each other are always equal, and directed to contrary parts. Whatever draws or presses another is as much drawn or pressed by that other”.

Prescient words in many ways...

I'm willing to sleep with all the Danes I can find to support the cause

Jeff, I'll have to look for some appropriate links.

But you could get a head start by getting drunk on Tuborg.

Hah!!! That picture's a classic!!! You should photoshop in "Support the Dane's- Get Drunk!" on there...

Crappy amateur job, but I did the above.

Hehe.

Nice!

Hee hee! Coco says thanks! And happy drinking for the rights of Danes! (Not too loudly, OK? Coco might be thinking that we're talking about Great Danes. Well, the Danes are great people, but you know what I mean....)

Beer! Bleah!

I won't drink the beer, but I'll stock up on Danish cheese. I'll consider any added poundage a small price to pay to show my support for free speech.

Bonnie, you reminded me that beer sales might not be affected by the anti-Dane boycott (at least, not in the Mideast).

Go to http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/freespeech1 to sign a petition in support of Denmark.

Remember the Protestants, the Catars, many of whom died for being accused of blasphemy. Without freedom of expression, how can we live together?

Buy Danish!

For everyone supporting by buying danish.. It is working.. today it has been on danish news that Denmark might just get a larger turnover from the people who decided to buy danish than the people boycotting..

So from the danes, I would like to send you all a huge THANK YOU!

Thank you all for your great support to Denmark
We will allways support you!!!

Thank you very much for your great support in this matter!
It warms my heart, and the heart of all Danes, that you guys stand firm in this matter! We need that support in order to maintain the freedom of speech, which is essential for our contry.
