Many European countries have "Squatters' Rights" laws; perhaps these incidents are a step in getting rid of this nonsense.

The passive treatment of anarcho-squatters is an example of the nanny state nurturing and coddling of people who are wasting their lives in substance abused on the public dime.

How about we get a group of people, some Caterpillars and some cement trucks and squat on a few squatters? We can put a used bookstore where their graffiti and beer-can ridden slum-house used to be. I could live in used bookstores, but I wouldn't squat in one.

Pelosi's Wrecking U.S.-Turkish Relations; Film At 11

In a couple of months, when my former home of Turkey is exploding with rage and anti-Americanism, and every friend of America in that country looks like a sucker after we've accused them of genocide in order to make friends with 1.5 million Armenians and made enemies of 80 million Turks, we can all say as one...

"Nice going, Nancy Pelosi. Keep telling us how we're the unsophisticated unilateralists who don't know how to get along with foreign cultures."

More from Jackson Diehl, who I think is too gentle on those pushing the resolution on the Armenian Genocide. (And now that I'm on this side of the Atlantic, I don't have to use the "so-called" prefix.)

Look, I understand commemorating the genocide and pointing the finger at Turkey is a very high priority to Armenian-Americans.

No Jim, you don't have a clue about the evil of genocide, as demonstrated by the garbage you spew forth below..

But in terms of vital U.S. interests, fighting the battle over the correct interpretation of events of nearly a century ago is about 10,345th on the list. Our tasks in Iraq, and dealing with Iran, Syria, Lebanon, and fighting extremist interpretations of Islam will be much, much easier with Turkey as an ally on these issues instead of an enemy.

Turkey has been our ally regarding Iraq? Thats news to me Jim, and I imagine the 4th ID would also be surprised at your assessment.

And the Turks' sensitivity on this issue is hard for most Americans to imagine. Imagine the passions of the Vietnam war, the Confederate flag, the treatment of Native Americans, and the internment of Japanese-Americans all rolled into one, and you have a sense of the touchiness of this issue in Turkish life.

Here, Jim compares events in American History (maybe he is referring to the re-education camps, or Pol Pot's genocide...strike that!) to the Armenian Genocide that the Turks perpetrated, and refuse to this day to admit. Even if we consider what the US did to the American Indians as comparable at some level, the US has admonished itself over this issuse time and time again. From pop culture, to the movie industry, in no way can the case be made that the US has denied the atrocities that were dealt out to American Indians over the course of US history, especially during the west-ward expansion.

If this resolution passes the House, the U.S. can expect no cooperation from the Turks for anywhere from three to five years. Are you paying attention, Hillary? Obama? Are you prepared to enter the Oval Office and lead a war on terror without our closest Muslim ally?

Our "closest Muslim ally" has done NOTHING but spit in our face regarding Iraq, and recently produced a film (the highest budget film EVER produced in Turkey) depicting the US and Israel as twin evils, tortuting and mutilating poor innocent muslims.

By the way, Pelosi, Queen of Diplomatic Sensitivity, refused to meet with Turkish Foreign Minister Abdullah Gul when he visited Washington recently. Way to go, Nancy. Keep teaching us all how to get along with our allies

I never thouht I would say this, but Go Nancy!

I vaguely remember disaffected youts squatting in Paris and London in the 60s and reacting with violence when they were crossed. I was too busy working and going to school to have the luxury of living in a cold, bare, smelly building where I had to compete with rats for living space.

Dude, you can have both!

I travel regularly all over the world, and Copenhagen is one of my favorite capitals in Europe. For a large city, it is relatively clean, traffic-light, and a visual delight. Furthermore the people are wonderful. Bright, friendly, speak English very well (it's compulsory in school). While their political system is in the Scandinavian tradition, it is more "socialist-lite" than Sweden or Norway, and they are definitely not of the French cheese-eating surrender monkey types, nor anti-American.

In fact, they seem to be among the few European countries that are not only supporting us in the WOT, but are also awakening to the dangers of Islamofascism at home.

These squatters and "professional anarchists" (which are like rat packs all over Western Europe) are messing with the wrong country. I predict there will be some new "St. Pancakes" in Copenhagen if they push their luck.

so once they thoroughly trash one of the coolest cities on the planet, then what? what have they accomplished but to wreck their surroundings?

hmmm... maybe taught bush a lesson? or stuck it to the corporate man? bravely fought the zionist machine?

These people are just scum. I've more respect for the Islamofascists...at least they have a cause they believe in.

You have the required number of uses of "like" but are woefully inadequate in your "ya know" and "ummm" categories. Also, I assume you removed the profanity?

I had to wade through a squatter riot in Amsterdam in 1980 just to get back to work. A road brick bounced off the plastic bucket over my head. Then the teargas helped clean out my sinuses. But the squatters didn't realize they were disrupting a Hells Angels party in the area. Was pretty cool watching one Angel swinging a bat around keeping the massive debris away.

After having read up at wikipedia, I can´t believe that Ungsdomhuset could ever be offered for sale, and how anybody could be desperate enough to buy it.

Notice that these pathetic idiots never have the courage to protest in China, or North Korea, or Syria, or Turkmenistan (before the Big Turkman died recently) or other totalitarian states. The anarchists condemn industrialism, then hypocritically hop on planes, trains, and buses to gather at the next riot. They can all go straight to Heaven.

I'm from Denmark, but not Copenhagen. There hasn't been rioting since saturday, when some of the citizens fought back and beat up protesters in their backyards. There has been a few arrests, but nothing serious. I think the worst trouble makers are arrested.

The car burning and vandalism of a high school is old news. That happend thursday and friday. The riots saturday wasn't that bad either.

Thanks for posting. What I'd like to know is, basically, just how much of a leftist troublemaker headquarters this place actually was. And, why did the "Christian group", whatever that is, buy it? And, why is this happening now? Is it because the current government of Denmark is getting around to dealing with problems that their predecessors ignored?

Any clarification you can provide is welcome. It's hard for us to get accurate information about events like this.

I'd like to see them try that in Saudi Arabia.

I though moonbats were aganist environmental destruction and violence. Why so much violence and destruction?

The Knud Evensen cult bought the property in 2000 through a neutral frontend, after the city had rejected the bid of the cultists. The contract had a clause prohibition reselling within the first 12 months, but the next year already the cult openly bought the stocks of their frontend. After the masquerade blew up, the cult rejected all offers to buy it back.

If I were as indiscrete as some of the commenters above, I´d say Knud Evensen is crying for a strong spanking from his d*ddy. But as so often these days the Cannabis subculture has to serve as a father surrogate, and stop a desperado masquerading behind Christianity from mutilating his own culture. If those cops are as tough as the media suggest, they should be in Afghanistan instead!

Anyways, Knud Evensen now has the option to realize his dream of building a church carrying the curse of realty fraud. And Denmark now has its ground zero.

84 Ellen: not quite 'disaffected' youths living in rat holes in those heady days of the Paris riots. I know someone who was travelling through Europe at the time and, arriving in Vienna, was looking for some accommodation when a fellow traveller on the train (the old Orient Express, long past its glory days) invited him to stay with the traveller and his family. The traveller, a 'youth' in his mid-20s, had suffered some wounds from a scrap with the Paris riot police (who knew their job in those days) during the infamous Paris riots. The youth's father was a long-time diplomat, mother was a friend of the then President of France and their home was one of the finest in the city. Not too hard a life being a professional rioter. I wonder what district of Copenhagen this lot of squatters calls 'home'?

No offense, Holger, but if homeowners had to fight off rioters who'd invaded their back yards, it sounds pretty bad to me.

#108 TheMole

What I'd like to know is, basically, just how much of a leftist troublemaker headquarters this place actually was.

For the mostpart, the YouthHouse was a beneign place, as was the 'clientelle' - at least during everyday life. They HAVE rioted before, for instance after Denmarks initial acceptance into the EU. During that riot, Danish police didn't have their plans and equipment together - which is why they actually ended up drawing their guns and began shooting into the crowd.

Under the right circumstances, the YouthHouse clientel is renowned for violent rioting - we've seen the burning cars and mayhem before. There is a small, hardcore group of, shall we say 'militant' lefties amongst the larger, more peacefull group of 'alternative' people who frequented the YouthHouse.

A couple of hours ago, Danish TV2 broadcast a poll indicating that 70% of Danes are GLAD or VERY GLAD to see the YouthHouse being torn down. 23% were indifferent, whilst 7% were NOT happy at all. So, the masses have spoken, and they don't like the YouthHouse, or the culture of militant violence that they sometimes engage in.

And, why did the "Christian group", whatever that is, buy it? And, why is this happening now?

The 'Fatherhouse' group started in downtown Copenhagen - their first offices and church are only a few hundred yards from the YouthHouse, in fact. The Fatherhouse group had been looking for years for a building in the area to convert into a community house, so to speak. A place with a café, theatre, meeting rooms, and so on. A place to launch public access benefits and such.

Since real-estate prices in Copenhagen are ridiculously high, nothing was found within their price range - until Copenhagen Municipality offered the YouthHouse up for sale (for 2.3 million Danish Kroner = $400,000). So they bought it, and then spent the next 7 years battling the youths in court for their reluctance/refusal to move out of the building. The Fatherhouse finally won their suit (through multiple cases), and the police were given the task to evict them with force, if need be.

Well, force was needed, as the youths stated publically that they would fight back if anyone tried to expell them from 'their' house. Needless to say, the police won, and the squatters lost.

Is it because the current government of Denmark is getting around to dealing with problems that their predecessors ignored?

Yes and no. This case wasn't about problems created by predecessors, or religion vs non-religion, or even conservatives vs liberals (right vs left) - it was about ownership laws vs tenant laws. The youths were only tenants, whilst the building was actually owned by the Copenhagen Municipality.

The municipality chose to sell it, the tenants were given eviction notices, and that was that. The tenants claimed that the house was theirs, and that they had first dibs on the place. Danish courts rejected that claim, and the police ended up evicting the tenants (the youths) - the youths chose to riot in protest, and more than 700 of them have been arrested so far.

The nation won and the squatting tenants lost - end of story.

#112 CODANOF

I wonder what district of Copenhagen this lot of squatters calls 'home'?

Some are from abroad, like the Germans, Swedes, Norwegians and Canadians who came to fight. Others are from the more wealthy areas north of Copenhagen. Some come from around Copenhagen suburbs - but the majority of youths are from innercity Copenhagen. Some are adults, whilst others are just teens (13 and up).

As far as I know, there wasn't a lot of drug trafficing and/or usage going on at the YouthHouse - most of that is located in either Christiania, or around Copenhagen in its suburbs. Most of the violence stemming from the youths over the years grew out of the political issues - or in this case, ownership issues - that the youths disagreed with.
