Support Denmark!

Buy Danish products and wear your support. Why should you support the Danes right now? Well they are standing behind a group of Danish cartoonists who expressed themselves with cartoons in a way various members of ROPMA have taken exception to in recent weeks. The Danish government is under pressure from the various Muslim countries about the issue and the EU is getting into the act; on the side of Islam naturally.

    Yes, its very tasty indeed. I do wish we would stop talking about it as it gets me rather hungry. You can order a t-shirt from our boy Murray over at Silent Running.

    I think we still live in Europe, not in Egypt or Saudi Arabia. There were many cartoons of Jesus Christ or Budha in Europe and what. The Eu is liberal so why we should be imposed values from outside. Religion and politics are divided here and thanks God. After all Muhammed is not a Prophet here. Let them live as they want but not impose to us their values. Long live Denmark

    I find it interesting that it is fine for these Muslims to attack the Western world, Christianity and Judaism but when someone freely expresses himself with a cartoon “against” Islam and their great prophet the Muslim world turns violent and demands death and respect! That just feeds into the perception that Islam is a violent religion.
    It’s not my religion and it isn’t my prophet and Europe is a democracy with free speech. They can say whatever they want!

    A lesson to Muslims:

    I used to be Pro-Palestinian based on the principal that they got a rotten deal when Israel was formed. I supported the idea of the EU sending financial aid to keep them going in the same way the U.S. sends Israel help. I often argued with my jewish friends abou this point.

    Guess what?

    Not anymore. I now really do no like how the Muslim countries are becoming, I find their citizens and current cultures to be extremely backwards, violent, beligerant and lack any of the reasoning and beauty that the Great Civilization of Islam had back in the middle ages. Now to me they all look like nothing but a mass of bitter, jealous, racists MEN who, if they get their way, will plunger the modern world into chaos and even nuclear horror.

    To hell with them and the financial help. Unleash Israel upon them, I say. Let them take it all.

    The great thing is that now I have no arguments with my jewsish friends and we can finally sit down at dinner knowing we do not longer have to agree about this ever again.

    See how that worked?

    Not all “muslims” are terrorists but all terrorists are “muslim”. The world needs to stand up to these religous zelots, cos if we dont we will all be praying in a mosque sometime soon.

    i am a turkish person and turkey is a 98%muslim country .. but even so we dislike araps..as a egyptian writer once said in his novel ‘turkish people dont like araps. they find them dirty, agressive and lazy’..and we are liberal and politics and relagion are seperated in our country.but we do have fanatic people in religion too like in any other country but these expections cant change real identity .it cant change the fact that we act with law but not with religion.we are aware that religion is between onesself and God , and what one does concerns only himself.besides disliking araps ,we are angry at what they have been doing and and how they have been representing the religion..cause like other religions islam talks about human love,and in it even breaking one’s heart is a great sin..it talks about how one has to be clean and work as long as they have the ability..regarding all these i am not sure if they can comprehend what they read in kur’an and i am not even sure we believe in the same religion even though we both call ourselves muslim..so its not about the religion itself its about the believer…For example we do beleieve that being able to get 4 wives belongs to the past when there were wars and few men around but a lot of women that needed to be taken care of..For that reason that takes place in Kur’an that a man can take 4 wives to protect them and give them home..so we know that when one reads he has to adjust what you he reads to todays conditions..for all these reasons i find it not fair generalizing muslim people..as in everything it has every color…because of this mentality good ones go to the same basket with the bads..even though we constantly have kurdish attacts that cause many people to die in our country for years, i refuse to say hell with kurds..if we all have aggressive atitude because of other’s agressiveness then who is going to calm the world down..in other words how are we gonna establish this popular word ‘peace’that everyone has been talking about for centuries..when is it actually gonna come true?because it looks like everbody wants it , cause everyone is talking about it..so what is going on?the problem is so few does somthing about it.why is it so hard ?because you have to give up the sellfishness in order to do something and it just seems that this characteristic just sticks with us wherever we go..i support the freedom to talk as long as you dont use that power to insult each other, do bad things…people has to respect in order to be respected ..one shouldnt go low beacuse bad ones are going low…since the bottom is their home…as a muslim girl i wish i could beg everyones pardon on the behalf of the responsible ones and that pardon would be enough and everything could stop..cause thats the only thing in my power..

    Denmark DOES NOT support Free Speech, anyone who criticizes Jews or practices “Holocaust Denial” faces a possible jail sentence or heavy fine.

    Good on you for supporting Denmark…

    Rather than wearing the T-Shirt, I’m wearing a Danish flag pin and would like to urge others to do the same-one for their outer garment, one for their suit/shirt. The reasonwearing a Danish flag will spark some conversation (What’s that flag on your lapel? Why are you wearing a Danish flag?) and the word will start to spreadthat the Danish flag is a flag that stands for freedom-and that freedom is under threat…

    Thanks!

    Mike

    Stay strong. USA loves you!

    generilizations make anger and hate grow and spread. cause you put innocent and quilty to the same basket by doing that.so the innocent one can be against to you too in the future..i support free speach is done in the frames of respect ..a person has the right to come in front of your house and say bad things about you and your family because he thinks so..and because he has the right to talk..it doesnt make any sense and it doesnt take us to a better place than where we are right now..i think we should start to use our power and freedom to do good..to respet each ther , respect to the diffrences we have and accept..thats the only way to live in harmony and stop all these terrors..cause ıf everyone is together and united these pysco terorists will be alone contra all the rest of the world..by the way i am turkish muslim….so dont generilize..
