Several terror groups have targeted Danish citizens and issued warnings. Intelligence services in Denmark are concerned
An Al-Qaeda affiliated terror group issued a grim warning to Danish citizens on Thursday: 'You will see your own blood as an answer, and that is revenge from our prophet,' the Abu Hafs al-Masri Brigade, which has been active in Iraq, wrote to a London-based homepage.
Another group based in England, Al Ghurabaa, called for a demonstration in front of the Danish embassy in London.
Two extremist groups in the Palestinian occupied territories also issued warnings to citizens from Denmark, as well as Norway and France. The groups stated that since newpapers in these countries had printed satirical cartoons depicting the prophet Mohammed, citizens from these countries were legitimate targets.
'All of the citizens who work in the diplomatic corps can be considered targets. We demand that offices and consulates for the three countries be closed, otherwise we won't hesitate to destroy them,' the two groups stated in a press release.
Denmark's Police Intelligence Service (PET) would not comment on the threat but considered the development troubling.
'They could be a cause for concern because people or groups who have the means to strike could be inspired to commit a terror act,' PET's chief inspector, Hans Jørgen Bonnichsen, told national broadcaster DR.
Post Sinkspur to this thread. He views all of this as unnecessary provocation.
Will Old Europe rally behind Denmark or will they hide behind Kofi's skirt.
Perhaps a few Berserkers will reemerge from Denmark. est..
When a Muslim smashes his finger with a hammer, he doesn't scream "Allah!!!"?!?!?
It seems so obvious that the world is going to hit a brick wall here pretty soon. We have Muslims, who by the grace of (God?) are sitting on the most valuable commodity in the world, and as such, have become extremely wealthy...but wealth is not their desire...they want to control the world. And now, with about 50 years of accumulating wealth, they are making their play.
Its gonna be a big bang!
Wait till the nukes start flying!
This issue is so incendiary that I am commenting only with a "btt".
Best question I have heard today.
I would have plenty to say about this but my fingers are cold from being outside having a nice koranfire.
Freedom and democracy demands it.
Interesting that they haven't started this junk here yet.
"Any thoughts?"
Yeah, for starters, one little nuclear bomb that would leave a big hole in Iran and see how it goes from there. AND I'M NOT KIDDING!!!
Will Denmark cave in to this bullying from a bunch of rotten islamic scum?
"What event would so much scare them that they would never lift another finger against a Westerner?"
We need to be cruel. We need to quit wringing hands over civilian casualties. We should list major cities of Syria, Iran, and Saudi Arabia, if it comes to that. Announce that any major attack on any western nation will be assumed to have been spawned with the help of these three nations and that we will take out one of there cities.
We probably need another Hiroshima. It hurts to type it, but I fear it is true.
You know, if we hadn't invaded Iraq, none of this would be happening.../s
See my tagline.
Its all BS, this outrage over the pictures. Depictions have been there for centuries. The radicals are fanning the flames, they're all suicidal, they are looking forward to a WW III. check out this site: http://www.outpost911.com/ Note depection 30 and 31. (Not bad looking, I guess they're not complaining about those. He sorta looks like another famous religous figure.)
