DENMARK NEEDS SUPPORT
2/1/2006 | american saviour

Posted on 02/01/2006 1:40:25 AM PST by crossroads

diplomatic and trade row is raging after two Nordic newspapers published cartoons of the prophet Muhammad that were deemed insulting by many Muslims, especially in the Middle East. In Britain, meanwhile, parliamentarians are debating whether to extend laws against incitement to religious hatred. Western democracies are again struggling to reconcile the right to free expression with respect for religious belief

Yeah I probably have got my lagers mixed up - truth to tell I think lager is for wuzzes! Good real ale (Old Peculiar or Fullers any day!)

Truth is even those days of good beers are passing me by (try the Blue Anchor at Aberthaw - 13th Century Pub....!).

'Twice a night' used to mean a bit more than waking up to use the bathroom. Age don't come by itself....

kind regards,

Wottch mean Stilton is harsh - I loorrrrve Blue cheese of any kind - so I'll take your advice and try to find some Rosenberge. With a glass of crusted Port and a decent cigar (or Gitanne unfiltered) ....good conversation...summers evening...

A toast to the middle classes!

*GASP* Sorry, I meant the vulgar Blues!!! NOT a Stilton!!!

shudder.

No, a fine Stilton lets one taste the flowers the beast grazed on. And when I am in your neck of the woods, a Plougman's with Stilton and a pint is Lunch, every day, because every pub seems to make them different.

The picture demonstrates what savages they, how truly ungrateful, when if we did not topple Saddam those Shia Iraqis would still be under Saddam & his goons .

ABOVE ALL LET's BUY DANISH PRODUCTS

Sorry that is just dumb . Buy the best product for the best price . Remember Denmark is hardly a country that isn't without its own economic repression issues (Welfare state). They believe in free speech BUT NOT free markets. Selective lovers of freedom tend to be the weakest links. Sure support their right to free speech but don't cover over they're faults.

it isn't dumb. you have to look at this from a wider perspective. with all their faults we rather have the europeans on our side than, say, islamic extremists.

anyhow, denmark has troops in irak, it is one european country that has sided with us more than france, spain, etc.

moral support doesn't count. active support does. any other practical suggestion to offer? be my guest.
