One little Christian Norwegian magazine prints the cartoons and the Norwegian authorities apologize. It looks like the muzzies are just looking for an excuse to torch something.

I thnk we need to pull all westerners out of those godforsaken countries and let them all rot without the western dollars that keep them fed and clothed.

Let the wealthy arabs take care of their brethren for a change.

What a concept.

They can decide whether to spend THEIR money on bombs. bullets or food. My guess is they will dissolve into a complete morass and things will take care of themselves.

But Islam is a religion of peace. Every Western nation should pull their embassy people out of Syria and send Syrian embassy personnel packing. If a country can't control their people, they don't deserve to belong to the community of civilized nations.

I'm hoping that Bush has already sent the message: Burn the US Embassy and it's War.

Look for France & Denmark to offer their Jews as reparations.

Me too.

Which is a shame, considering the time of day over here :-)

Earlier reports, indicated that the mob who burned down the Danish embassy were heading for the Norwegian embassy, but that Syrian security was on the case.

Seems like Syrian security has failed.

Still waiting for the special break in regular programming on Norwegian TV. According to a flashing text on the screen, it will start in five minutes.

Good morning.
"The Danish government is calling for an immediate evacuation of all Danish citizens from Syria."

Followed by massive retaliation bombing of Syrian government buildings?

We have needed to get rid of Syria for a while now.

Alright more news:

Syrian security first managed to defend the embassy at first when protesters showed up and pelted rocks. THey used teargas, and 11 of the "activists" were hospitalised.

However, later it seems like the mob has managed to storm the embassy and is currently wrecking havock.

Fortunately, it seems like the embassy was evacuated prior to the arrival of the mob.

was it something the US said that made them go on this burning spree?

In a way , yes! Our State Department spokesperson declared our support of their 'justified' outrage and made a Clintonesque "We feel your pain" statement instead of "Put some ice on it".

Our current administration is so busy kissing Mexican and Muslim ass that Americans might as well take a number or go to the end of the line if we need anything from Washington.

AP reported that the Norwegian and Chilean embassies are in the same building as the Danish embassy.

Aren't they in NATO? An embassy's property in part of the country whose embassy stands on it, isn't it. That's an act of war [There are no Syrian protestors without the government's OK].

I believe we now have a casus belli to trounce the Syrians.
