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.
My answer is the bold part of your statement.
Seems to me that they are. Maybe I'm missing something.
"What event would so much scare them that they would never lift another finger against a Westerner?"
Killing several hundred thousand of them, say when they are spinning around the black rock in a trance, would be a good first step.

I believe that this has taken the U.S. out of the crosshairs of the terrorists. I am begining to think that they are going to strike in Eruope before they hit us again.
They only understand and respond to force-- that's how the Arab leaders stay in power. It is how Saddam did.
Yeah, well, let me help ya'll not forget what Islam is like...deceptive in some parts. Here's a list of video links regarding Islam, Muslims and terrorists.

Targeting the diplomatic corps? Will they capitulate without a shot being fired?
Exactly! If they don't want to live under the rules of the nation they've immigrated to, then they should leave. And for the converts, they should go live in a Muslim nation and see how much they "really" love their new religion.
Is considering self defense in response to threats of murder due to a cartoon escalation? Perhaps we don't see things the same way.

It's got some information there which I have not seen previously.
Good grief, the escalation is unbelievable. Almost as though they have been waiting for some reason to go on a rabid rampage.
That's 'cause we have guns.
Yup.
Some of Satan's finest work is with his religion of peace cult.
I'm with you there....
I wish I could draw better cartoon caricatures other than stick figues, maybe we could get some of this action here in Texas. Just loaded up 500 rnds of 230gr 45ACP.
