John Zimmerman is right. The Muslim countries have chosen to pressure liberal little Denmark in order to teach the media and governments, which stand by them, a lesson which does not bode well for free speech or satire. Kuwait has joined the Saudi boycott (the Saudi market alone is worth 1.2 billion) and I suspect the rest will follow. So, here is a plea from my Danish friends: 
"If you Americans look with this great sympathy on our case, couldn't you then raise a consumer support of DK in the US? The opposite of a boycott. A movement of: "Buy Danish!" Please?

    Just got some Danish Blue Cheese. I think we need to help Denmark make up it's losses from not being able to sell to the Muslim world.

    My (liberal) hubby is getting on the Danish band wagon. I was under the weather and sent him to the grocery store to buy anything produced in Denmark. He came home with 2 tins of cookies, a canned ham, anchovies, three different kinds of cheese and twelve pack of Tuborg.
 You've gotta love a man who takes your interests seriously.
 Although I rarely watch Stephanopolis' show, it was worth suffering through it for the few moments of George Will, who succinctly stated that "they" (Islamo fascists)" want to live in a world where they will never be offended." Sam Donaldson tried to argue otherwise, but he just didn't have a point.
 Thanks for the tagline idea. Here is a translator.

    What if I buy a Great Dane?
 
If you import it from Denmark, you'll hit the trifecta: 
1. Support the Danes financially 
2. Show you support ever time you walk your dog 
3. Frighten any Islamo-radicals as Muslims generally don't like dogs. 
(I've been told this is why there's only one recognized "breed" 
from the Middle East, the "Canaan" dog.

    I was asking myself if I even knew what products were Danish. Then after I read this thread, I realized I really, really like a lot of Danish products! 
 
How do you say, "It's all good," in Danish?
