Better stock up on butter cookies now.

I smell a fahtwa!

frankly...so what? The Ummah needs to grow a thicker skin

The Saudis will try a boycott and, if that doesn't work, a few suicide bombers will teach those Nordic infidels a lesson about respect for Islamic dignity, honor and culture.

Based on the poor reaction to the cartoons, Arla Foods decided to postpone its rollout of their new "Allah Pops"

Looking for humor in the Muslim world.

Islam regards any images of the prophet as blasphemous.

My gosh, get real. Read Sura 109 again you radical dumbasses. My religion doesn't prohibit cartoons of Mohammed and Sura 109 says its OK for me to have my religion and you to have yours.

So STFU and kwitcherbitchin.

OK, besides butter cookies, where can I buy Danish stuff?

So marketing the Muhammed Butt plug is outta the question?

Have they all had humor bypass surgery?

What is it they say about people who lack a sense of humor? Oh yeah - that's the left wing loons in the US. I knew they had something in common with the Muslims.

Let'em eat oil!

So the "Saudis" are taking Danish ham off their store shelves?

Weren't the Danes also the ones with the "Jewish" cookies? That alone is a reason for them to be boycotted.

They can always eat the Danish butter cookies made in the United Arab Emirates. They taste like shit.

Yeah, and I just hate goat hair in my Butter cookies.

They're not talking about this islamic comic are they?

The Saudis eat herring?

Islam regards any images of the prophet as blasphemous.

Hell, I regard all of Islam blasphemous

So if we can get every country in the world to publish dirty pictures of Mohammed can we shut down all imports to Saudi Arabia?

Or will they just do what they do with Israel. . .sneak the stuff in through Jordan first. . .

Pity this didn't happen in Germany! Having to give up their Mercs, Porsches and BMWs would have been a lot harder! Then again, the Germans would probably have caved in a long time ago...

yup, the [bigoted word]s know how to use economic force. and since Western Europe has gone to such extremes to build ties with the Muslim world, expect more and more soft pressure to be brought against European countries in the days ahead. Economics will no doubt prove a more decisive weapon for Islam than all the suicide bombs in the world.

The proper reaction to a boycott of Danish products is a boycott by Danish people of Saudi products.

Hmmm... I wonder what Saudi products there are to boycott?

Let's see these bullies flex their muscles when an alternative fuel source is found.

Ahh, Danish hams...

Also, eat lots of baby back ribs, because they come from Denmark (bet you didn't know that).

In a gutteral Scoot acent.
Soo ya thin fning the goat was ok but the cartoon in the paper is baad. Let me explin somthin to ya laddy you need to start drinkin. the jokes will be funny and the goats won't be important now that you have the false courage to talk to the real women.

No danish? No Copenhagen? How will they survive!?

Beautiful, x-ray.

It is now the solemn duty of every lizard, and every other patriot, to DRINK LOTS OF CARLSBERG BEER.

In times like these, someone has to step up.

And the original point of those cartoons (to test whether Muslims can tolerate freedom of speech)? Missed it by that much!

Mercs? Mercury? Wha...? I thought the diminutive of Mercedes Benz was "Benz"...

And the original point of those cartoons (to test whether Muslims can tolerate freedom of speech)? Missed it by that much!

The point has been made, hasn't it? In spades.

The are entitled to boycott if they don't like something. I do it too. Problem with the Arabs is that they have to be careful. Since they are incapable of producing a single thing on their own (except for breeding suicide bombers) if they boycott too much they'll starve or die of dehydration.

Where can we find these cartoons now? I liked the one that had a bomb for Mo's head.

#30, Spiny Norman. In the Magic Kingdom, Mercedes is pronounced Merc-a-dees or Merk for short. A GMC is a jim-ick.

If you can't take a joke. ... I quess your a Muslim.

#28 Dead Sea Sqirrel -- "It is now the solemn duty of every lizard, and every other patriot, to DRINK LOTS OF CARLSBERG BEER.

Man, you are pushing me to the limit. I just ended by Canadian boycott and figured on helping Molsons' sales. (That's on top of managing my normal intake of products from the Genessee brewery -- unquestionably the best of the few premium breweries remaining in America).

Carlsberg on top of that?

OK, Stop Hillary here, reporting for duty.

I guess it's all the well... Those 'butter' cookies are...uh, well let's just say that there's a pig in every can. BWAHAAHAHAHAH!

God, where do I come up with them!

Only a can a day, that's all we ask. BWAHAHAHA!

No Tulips for you! BWAHA..ow, cramp...

A boycott?

But...but...what am I going to do with all these 'Mohammed f*cking a pig' figurines I'm hand-carving?

See the cartoons here.

This is the sort of thing we should be encouraging. The use of non-violent methods and the free market is a positive step even if you don't agree with what they want.

You can argue that this is a sham and there's the threat of violence behind it. And that's a legitimate argument. But boycotts are a legitimate way of expressing displeasure in the same way that, in my youth, many Jews wouldn't buy German cars.

Tuborg is also Danish - and a LOT more drinkable than Carlsberg...

I think there is a great canned ham.Plus some cheeses.
Will buy them today.
(then there is some great Danish porno...
uh, no, not part of the Canes GDP...)

The Saudies also recalled their ambassador from Denmark in protest. I'm hoping he stays away.

The political lines in Denmark is drawn up neatly along predictable lines. With the left and socialists saying Denmark should appologise and make concessions - and the right and conservative holding up and saying their's nothing to talk about. Fortunately a vast majority of Danes support the conservative in this case. And to think, when the socialists last were in power, they tried to prevent Salman Rushdie from entering the country. So predictable dispicable.

There's another Danish newspaper (Weekendavisen), which though all the hoopla about the cartoons was just ridiculous, so they decided to publish their own batch of cartoons. And now they muslims are whining about that too, for apparently being even worse than those published before. One depiction was a happy smiling smilie. Another an empty chair. Another a Mona Lisa with beard – which according to Islamic Trossamfund (Islamic Faith Organisation) – is especially insulting, since 1) It depicts Muhammed (sic!), 2) Muhammed as a woman! (and we all know how the closet-homos feel about women) 3) Since Mona Lisa has long hair, Mona Lisa, according Islamic Faith Organisation – and you really can’t make shit like this up, resembles Jesus – which apparently is a hidden insinuation that Muhammed is a false prophet and only Jesus is real.

* News Paper
* Can you proved this isn’t Muhammed
* (Chair)This is Muhammed. And Santa Muhammed
* Roaring Muhammed by a forest lake
* (top) The prophets foot (bottom) “a pun on one of the editiors, which is said to resemble Muhammed
* (top)The prophet as he saw himself (bottom) Mom with prophet
* For thousands of years, a so-far secret society has known that this image depicts the prophet, but they have kept their knowledge secret. The newspapers anonymous artist does everything in his power to reveal the truth. He has now gone underground in an attempt to escape a mad albino-imam.
* The prophets insides

Send your products here, I'll buy them as long as you don't cave in the these idots.

Can we get Muhammed's picture on a milk carton? Or may be someone can use his picture on a package of pork roll!

“More and more supermarkets are taking our products off their shelves and don’t wan’t supplies because consumers no longer want to buy our brand,” Arla Foods spokesman Louis Honore told AFP.

So? Don't buy Saudi oil!

/problem fixed

So, where's my boycott?

Why don't they boycott all infidel products, and we'll check in a few years down the line and see if anyone is left standing.

#45

I second that. Havarti at every superbowl gathering in the US would be a good start. Heck, if the Danes stand strong I'll just start buying direct!

EN hovmodig dane

Denmark,
Send your products here.
I'll buy 'em.

No chance they'll boycott the entire nation and stop emigrating there though eh?

Oh...so now the Saudi's disDane Denmark...

Guess they will have to send back all the Victor Borge DVD's...oh wait, that is comedy and music so it is doubley disDANEful.

Man, oh man... The "dis" list is growing by leaps and bounds...it used to be only by an arm and a leg---and an occasional head or hand or stoning or...

What about the cheese danish? Is it now forbidden as well?

/ain't multiculturalism grand!

Aussies and Danes are in union. Danish Prince Frederik and Aussie born Crown Princess Mary have given birth recently to future king Christian. If us Aussies had to have one of our local girls find a prince in a Sydney pub and marry him, he couldn't have been from a better country than Denmark.

Someone needs to start a website specifically selling the banned products (in english so we know what we're buying)... Call it [Link: www.screwthejihad.com...]

Some blue scarfs for the Blue Revolution would be nice too.

Where can I get a link for these cartioons as I want to put them as my wallpaper.

Just another demonstration by countries under the inluence of the ROP of exactly how intolerant the ROP is of any view other than their own.Everything goes in the ROPer world as long as you agree and submit to the ROPers opinion of what that world should look like.This is nothing but another mask being removed from the face of Islam for all the ''civilized''world to see.Let them gripe,let them boycott,let them demonstrate.It will only serve to awaken more of the world (other than the ''useful idiots''so commited to their ideaology as to remain blind right through their own decapitation)to the real face of Wahhabi Islam-complete and total intolerance for tolerance of those who choose to disagree.On a side note-Tuborg? I used to drink that in New York over 25 years ago -advertised as ''The Danish Beer of Danish Kings''...I could buy a case for $7.75! I haven't seen it anywhere in 20 years(and I travel the US with some regularity).I'd love to find it again if only to be reminded of some of those crazy nights of my youth.Anybody know a state in which I could locate some?

OT-anyone else seen the headlines today?Seems as though something a few of us wrote about happening in the immediate aftermath of the election in Gaza has begun.Thousands of Fatah folks demonstrating in the street demanding that the leadership resign.Big clashes between them and Hamas supporters-gun fights in the street.Yes,the ROPer's are heading rapidly towards full fury at each other in the ''Territories''.Looks like the outbreak of intolerance-i.e. Civil War-is about to break wide open.Let the games begin...

The URL posted earlier to see the drawings was wrong. The drawings can be found at the address [Link: face-of-muhammed.blogspot.com...] There is also a link there to a webshop in support of the cartoonist.

Quite gutsy to wear one of those T-shirts, I would say.

Good morning lizards. This is actually good news. If Theo Van Gogh didn't teach those liberal northern Europeans that tolerance only works with people who appreciate it--Jews, Christians, Buddhists, Hindus--this might just do the trick.

Unlike other immigrants, Muslims have no desire to simply go about their jobs, raise their families and practice their faith privately. Instead they seek to change the very nature of the host country. Notice Oriana Fallaci's persecution in Italy, Britain's new laws designed to protect the sentiments of thin-skinned Muslims and now this. In a nutshell they want Italians, Brits, Danes and everyone else to tiptoe around their sentiments even if this means trampling over a basic principle such as free speech. (I agree that the cartoons were tasteless, but so what, a lot of things are tasteless.)

Someone on yesterday's thread about this tried to argue that Christians would have reacted similarly to cartoons of Jesus. Here was my response to that:

Frankly, there's no comparison. Every society has its religious nuts, but only in Islam do they spring immediately to violence, and only in Islam is that violence not condemned by the majority. In America, fellow whites condemn racial bigots such as David Duke, and many Christians are quick to criticize Christian bigotry. In India, Hindus are among the biggest critics of Hindu nationalists. It's the same with Jews in Israel and Buddhists in Japan. Only in the Muslim world--from Saudi Arabia to Indonesia--is violence a first resort. And only among Muslims is that violence either celebrated, justified or ignored, but never condemned.

Maybe it's because violence is celebrated in the Koran. Maybe it's because Muslims value unity of the ummah above all else. Maybe it's because they've been taught to believe that they're victims, yet at the same time representatives of a superior vision for humanity. I don't have the answer, but let's not pretend that the Muslim reaction to those Danish cartoons would find any parallel elsewhere.

So what can we do? Publish those cartoons as widely as possible and stand up and be counted. They can intimidate the Norwegians, but they can't intimidate everyone. At least not until the NYT or WashPost buys LGF.

Arla owns White Clover Dairy, a Wisconsin company, so buy that brand wherever you see it. And, of course, Danish ham.

What's the opposite of a boycott, a girlcott? Buy, buy, buy!

greatdane and rune, thanks for the links.

Here's a link to Arla containing a picture of a Saudi market with Danish items clearly marked.

Saudi boycott

I'm sure the attitude in Denmark is that the only reason the Muslim world is so touchy in the first place is due to American Imperialism. Maybe a few episodes of youthful "unrest" like France experienced will help them into the light.

I will be buying plenty of authentic Danish Havarti cheese today.

By the way, look at the EU figures for Danish exports and imports.

They are a net energy EXPORTER. They are immune to the OPEC Oil Weapon.

Also, most of their trade is with the US, and very little is with OIC that can't be made up for with increasing other trade opportunities.

If anything, Denmark would make a fine battleground for East vs. West on the economic and free-speech fronts.

I have a 6-pack of Tuborg Gold (imported and brewed in Denmark - I checked) sitting in my fridge at the moment. Got it at the local Publix supermarket in Cape Coral Florida Just in case you are in the area - the one on CC pkway near the south bridge.

I've seen it elsewhere too. It's actually harder to find Carlsberg around here - not too many people like it.

One of Denmark's biggest exports (besides Carlsberg) is pork products, so I can't really see a Saudi embargo having much impact there.

Islam regards any images of the prophet as blasphemous.

OK, so presumably that's Sharia, that's Islamic law, according to this article, and if Muslims want to be bound by Sharia that's their business.
What is difficult to understand if the world believes in religious freedom is why that part of Sharia has to be observed by non-Muslims.

Isn't the uproar all about trying to force Sharia down the throats of people who are not Muslims?

If it is prohibited to not venerate Muhamad, isn't that just as restrictive as prohibiting people from venerating Muhamad? It's a breach of the idea of freedom of religion.

Besides, there is no claim by official Islam, including the Wahhabi version of Islam, that Muhamed was a god. So how is it blasphemous to portray Muhamed as a person? Muhamad was a person, not a god, so how can any portrayal of this person be a crime against a god? The Wahhabis, of all people, are treating Muhamed as if he were a god, and yet they denounce the Shiites for having shrines that honor people; Wahhabi pot calling the Shiite kettle black.

Next they'll be telling the Danes they're offended by the cross on the Danish flag.

has a new twist on this cartoon fatwa.

He "fisked" the Koran as to why this kerfluffle should even be an issue.

He reminded Muslims about their favorite Danish sweets recipe.

He showed the concerted efforts of Saudi Imams who ALL spoke about these 'toons in Friday's sermons.

If you haven't read his blog (which Charles introduced me to a few days ago, now's the time. :)
