Sudanese President Leads Mass Khartoum Demonstration Against Denmark

On February 28, Sudanese President Omar Al-Bashir led hundreds of thousands of people in a Khartoum demonstration against Denmark.

The demonstration came in the wake of the reprinting of the Muhammad cartoons by Danish newspapers.

At the demonstration, Al-Bashir announced the waving the banner of jihad in Sudan, and promised that Sudan would respond appropriately to the insult.

He said that no defiled Danish foot would step on Sudanese land, and called on the Arab and Muslim countries to follow Sudan’s example and boycott Danish products and Danish officials.

The demonstrators shouted slogans such as “Oh bin Laden, Strike Denmark and Never Stop” and “Oh Denmark, You Have Opened the Door to Terrorism.”
