Palestinians want Danes out (Mohammed cartoon fall-out)

Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades members hold anti-Denmark demonstration Sunday to protest recent publication of caricatures mocking Prophet Muhammad in Danish newspaper, threaten to harm Danish nationals in territories and urge them to leave area immediately.

Dozens of al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades members held a demonstration against Denmark Sunday at the main square in the West Bank town of Nablus, shouted anti-Danish slogans and threatened to harm Danish targets located in the West Bank and Gaza.

Sunday's demonstration is the last in a string of Muslim rallies to protest the recent publication of a series of caricatures mocking Muslim prophet Muhammad in the Danish newspaper Jyllands-Posten.

The caricatures, including one that depicts Muhammad wearing a bomb-shaped turban, stirred outrage among the Muslim community in Denmark that soon crossed borders and spread to other countries as well.

During the demonstration in Nablus, participants threatened to harm Danish interests in the territories and called on all Danish representatives and activists operating in the area to leave immediately. Members of the organization also urged Danish citizens planning to enter the territories to refrain from doing so in order to avoid being hurt.

Protesters also demanded the Palestinian public to suspend all ties with Denmark, in light of what they described as a "serious insult to Muslim sentiments."

An al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades senior member told Ynet that "the Danish campaign against the prophet Muhammad constitutes part of the crusade the western world conducts against Islam."

'Protest against enemies of Islam'

The activist stressed the demonstration was not related to recent political developments in the territories and to Hamas' win in the elections.

"This is a demonstration for Islam and against the enemies of Islam. We are not interested in seeing Danish nationals here, and we are currently debating how to act against them within our borders," he added.

Meanwhile, the International Islamic Council on Saturday called on all Muslims to make sure their protest against Denmark takes only peaceful means.

"We ask all members of the Islamic nations to express their views in a calm and civilized manner, and to avoid getting carried away and make mistakes unbecoming of Muhammad's way," the organization said in a statement.

Notably, Saudi Arabia has already recalled its ambassador from Copenhagen last week, claiming Denmark has not done enough to appease offended worshippers.

So, lemmee get this straight...

A few Danish cartoonists drew some pictures the Palestinians didn't like. So, in response, the Palestinians are threatening to hang disemboweled, beheaded corpses of any Danes they can grab upside down on light towers and then burn to the ground whatever they owned?

I'm shocked, shocked! the Danes would draw unflattering cartoons of such people! What in the world are they thinking of?

Best cartoon yet!

Illustrates the hypocrisy of the peace activists perfectly.

"Notably, Saudi Arabia has already recalled its ambassador from Copenhagen last week, claiming Denmark has not done enough to "appease offended worshippers".

But of course, Saudi Arabia demands that all Western Nations "appease" their Islamists. Never mind that those Islamists are living in countries with their own rules of society. The west must all bend to the will of the Islamofacists.

"Notably, Saudi Arabia has already recalled its ambassador from Copenhagen last week"

Hey Saudi Ambassador, Take your demands home and stay there, and while you're at it take all the Islamofacists home with you.

Thanks for posting the fresh link. The cartoons got pulled from the one I was repeatedly posting. That problem isn't going to happen again; I've copied all of them to my hard drive. Every time an article like this about the Mudslimes trying to suppress free speech appears the best thing to do is post either the cartoons or a link to them. That way the Mudslimes might finally get the idea that the more they try to destroy free speech, the more it's going to bite them in the soft spots.

The cork's starting to work it's way out of the bottle here. Muslims worldwide are starting to feel their oats as it were. They're sensing a critical mass of sorts.

Sounds as if they may blow the cork off the bottle and start a full-fledged war at some point.

No citizen, nor government official, form a country that doesn't allow freedom of religion, should be allowed in a western country. Arabs out.

I think you are correct. With Ahmadinejad fanning the flames and now the Hamas win, islamic rage is elevated from a simmer to a low boil.

Yes, they are definitely revving up. Got their platform nailed -- 'Destroy Israel and all of the West, the infidels.' Got their elected leaders. Got their oil. Got their thin skin.

Bring 'em on. Could our Battle Flag be one of the Danish cartoons??

if the Danes can get rid of all Palestinians in Denmark in return for all Danes out of Palestine - it'd be a great bargain.

I once had occasion to deal pretty regular with a French Engineer who was Lebanese but living in France and a citizen I guess.

He talked a lot about his Fiancee who was Danish. I thought this was extremely diverse for a Danish girl to become betrothed to an Arab.

I am now certain the young lady was also Lebanese but living in Denmark.
