Hardline Muslims barged into a high-rise building housing the Danish Embassy on Friday to protest the publication of caricatures of the Prophet Mohammad.
They then tore and burnt the country's white and red flag.
The rowdy protest was one of the first in the world's most populous Muslim nation against the 12 cartoons, which first appeared in September in a Danish newspaper.
They were reprinted in several other European newspapers this week in a gesture of press freedom.
Please FReepmail me if you want on or off my miscellaneous ping list.
Ah yes the religion of peace in action again.
That's an act of war isn't it. Let's take it to them.
it might be an act of war but, who are you going to go to war against? Maybe they should join and support the WOT?

As if this was necessary considering the context of the article.
yeah, but here's a redo of that editorial cartoon. A stab at thee Islamic terrorists! If they don't have thick skin for this sort of thing, well, hells bells, maybe they need to be "democratized"?

Who? Denmark?
I guess, they were the ones attacked. Would be nice if the home country where this happened helped out a little more too.
Agreed, but I would not be holding my breath.

Denmark has been a member of the coalition in Iraq.

Denmark published the silly cartoons which have the murderers so pissed.
The Danes are justifiably pissed because muslim males have been raping Danish females, since islam justifies raping "infidels."
While I can understand the Muslims' offense over the cartoons, I think these people are not only blowing this way out of proportion but simply exploiting the opportunity to stir up trouble. Apparently every lowlife who screams "Allah" has jumped onto the bandwagon.
How many times have I seen vicious cartoons aimed at Jews & Christians (quite a few in the Arab or Muslim press) but didn't run around waving sabers (literally). Hysteria seems to drive these people; it's their motivating force.
So it is ok to slaughter a school bus full of children in Mohammads name, but not ok to make a cartoon about it?
Time for a reality check here.
CNN International is honoring its commitment to Freedom of the Press by showing only pixalated views of the "offensive" cartoons. That and giving extensive airtime to the outraged Muslims.
The Quran states they don't have to be tolerant of Non believers until AFTER you live in an Islamic state. Only then are Muslims obligated to protect you (of course that doesn't mean bad things wont still happen)
When will the world stop walking on egg shells around these barbarians who refuse to join civilization past the 13th century.

The so-called "religion" of "peace" is a death cult of pieces.
