In the answer to why did this news paper made that cartoon they said it was to show the freedom of speech, I want to know what kind of freedom is that, even if that is stepping over our moral believes. To me it was very stupid comment that they were showing freedom of speech, they could go on political leaders but they had to make fun of religious matters. maybe to them religious matter is noting and they can make fun of Jesus as they regularly do(no offence meant, we believe in him and have huge respect for him, prophet Eesa is mentioned with respect in Quran) any time they want but that doesn’t work here, we don’t tolerate with those kind of things. The news paper site was destroyed by a hacker and was back last days and apologized in a way that "we got it wrong".
Denmark ambassador in Saudi Arabia said 100million damage was made overall middle east in few days cuz of boycotts, and now the foreign minister is waiting for an act by our governments for what is happening, I say how the feck they can blem us for whets happening, we deserve an apologies and they asking us for one.
These boycotts will continue even if Denmark government apologies so it could be a lesson for those who think they can go away with this kind of act.
Since I'm bored, here's why this is fucking stupid:
It wasn't denmark (or later on norway) that did it, it was one newspaper, and not one speaking for the danish governement, or the danish people.
They've got this thing called freedom of speech, where the government doesn't censor papers before they are published. Sure, it's prolly really stupid, and maybe hurtful, but it wasn't the work of the danish people. Yet you'd mess with their economy, and also that of norway, since the drawings were published there too.
It's not the entire danish people's fault, it's the idiots running the paper(s). And, last I checked it wasn't a paper intended for your market, fuck, I'd never have heard of this if it hadn't been for this idiocy, and compared to you I live next door.
So you are screwing with a couple of nations far away from you, over something a few people printed in one of their papers.
Kinda' makes me think of when other idiots blame all arabs for the actions of a few deranged terrorists.
Far as I'm concerned, those members of the danish people who had done nothing wrong here can blame you for any economical problems, if you stand by it, 'cos what you want to do is to mess with an entire people, of which not even one percent are guilty of this particular crime, and that's no more right than publishing the stuff in the first place.

According to Bawa's thinking because some nutter from the middle east blew up the world trade centres then they all think it's good. So im gonna boycott everything to do with the middle east, an dinfact any country near them. They all want to blow me up :cry:
Bawa - there is such a think as freedom of speach. So because i say your a wanker that does not (<----read that part its important) mean that every British person thinks your a wanker, but if every british person knew you i'm sure they'd agree with me.

now tell me how the fuck freedom of speech is fair to you but freedom of act is not.
we dont like to do this but when west's dont care about us and they dont listen to us we must goto this kind of alternative action's.
like france cencoring the right of a muslim laidy of wearing her hejab(scarf), how would u feel if hejab was compulsory here even to non muslims?
all am saying when justise can be made by peace we have alternative ways and its our choice to boyccotts some thing.

That's the fucking problem.
You just grouped entire nations based on what a newspaper published.
Then you issue fucking fatwahs based on the same shit.
So you not only boycott a nations goods based on a newspaper article, which although I find stupid, it's your right. You then make those folk targets for assassination.
Until you so-called Muslims change your stilted view then fuck off.
When I studied Islam way back, my uncle warned me about The Nation Of Islam and enlightened thinkers like yourself.
..and if the west has a stilted view of folks like yourself, blame 9-11. You have never had such a backlash in the modern era until then. You sympathize with terrorists.
You have an institution of hate. The most ubiquitous remark, "I don't condone 9-11 but I understand why they did it.":dry:
They are fucking idiots. They killed other Muslims that day.
Nice going.
Oh and for the record I don't hate Islam in the least.

a news paper always provides what one nation thinks cuz thier part of nation and the people who write it think as them and are not diffrent generaly.
didnt in denmark thing suddenly changed and there were attacks on muslims after killing the Van Gogh, wasnt that racism becuz one muslim guy killed him?

There's the problem in your thinking right there. Are you that fucking stupid?
This is why you think it's ok to target the average joe when shit goes down.
Then you'll sit back and say, "it wasn't me it was some guy" at the same time sympathetic to that "some guy".

no am not talking off my ass like you, check that last poll of danish people regarding this matter, over 80% people said not to opologize for making thoes cartoon, what u say about that, i say they all think same but to cover the matter up they use the "F"(freedom) word, again i say freedom is not to disrespet others moral and beliving values.

Re: boycotts of Danish goods in middle East!
how u think poll and research r done, not enitre nation vote or give thier openions, they take avrage numbers.
and i would think u a poor thinking person if making that kind of poll on FSt would be a good idea, that would be representing what u guys think of us and what is ur feeling toward us and "i dont hate muslims" would be hidding in shadow and releasing attention off your self.

I don't hate Muslims. My uncle is Muslim.:dry: Plus I don't hide jack shit on here. It's already the internet. I'm not worried about NOT saying what I think.:huh: Fuck sugarcoats.
80% in a poll means 80% OF THOSE POLLED.

Noo Bawa, that's not how news papers work.
No news paper in history, as far as I know, has ever been an expression of some sort of communal opinion. People don't vote on what to put in them, it's just a bunch of men and women reporting on news as they see them.
And furthermore, it's entirely possible for the staff or owner(s) of the paper to subscribe to a specific view and/or ideology that isn't shared by the majority of the population. Here we have papers with socialist tendencies, for instance, and that particular ideology isn't one that's shared by the entire population.
And do you even have the full context for those pictures? I haven't read that paper (danish ones interest me even less than their swedish counterparts), but my first guess, upon seeing those pictures, would be that it was a depiction of the Muhammed the terrorists worship, or what they've reduced him to by doing what they do in his name, rather than a picture of the "actual" benign prophet you love. Which would explain why the danes don't agree with you on the punishment issue.
And as busy says, that poll may not be representational at all, it depends on how it was done. If it was done at a university, for instance, I guarantee you the results would not reflect reality, when it comes to a matter like this.
It's true that you should have the freedom to act as you wish, within reason. But to consciously try and hurt the people of Denmark for what just a few people have done isn't right, can't you understand that?
And finally, I know enough about Denmark to know it isn't full of racists or haters, it's a laid back sort of country, very tolerant, or at least it seems that way to me. Lots of hippies too :ermm:

what else do they have?
@BAWA - there's only a few people who might hate islam over here. After 9/11 my temple (hindu) was burned down because some fags cant tell the difference between religions. I was pretty angry, and I might have said some bad things to the muslims in our school but I'm ok now. But tell me, if one paper does it for a town in denmark, can you really think that all of Denmark ahtes you? and even if Denmark hated islam can you say that all of the west hates you? After 9/11 there was alot of hate against muslims, but you cant blame it on us. We cant pick out every terrorist. They seem to think that they serve the people and religion. Does that mean that all muslims are terrorists? My point is that you cant judge millions of people because of 1 newspaper from A country .

FFS, read again, I just said that what is in the papers doesn't reflect what the people think.
It doesn't mean that the entire western world is out to get you.
Also, some of them had articles about this little incident, and they were showing the pics so people could see what you were complaining about, they were hardly taking a bash at you, if anyone was.
Don't you have free press over there? Do you agree with everything that's printed in every newspaper in U.A.E.?

Re: boycotts of Danish goods in middle East!
all press here have thier freedom of speech they go on goverments even on shikhs but they respect peoples belivings and dont do such a things to hurt them even tho most of them arent from our region, what danish newspaper did was ignoring what our newspapers respect.

We are all trying to HURT you? IMO it's thinking like this that lies at the root for all extremist behaviour, including Nazi germany.
To clarify, it's the we/you way of thinking which is bad. You shouldn't generalize. What's happening now is the western media feeling they have to prove their freedom of speech, it's got nothing to do with hate as far as I can see. You could argue however that the way in which they go about proving this freedom of speech is wrong.
(I read a norwegian professor (I think) saying something along the lines of the way the majority group is putting down a minority in this case is exceptional and further that if this had happened in Pakistan for instance, with the muslim majority doing something similar towards the chrisitan minority human rights activists would have been all over it.)

If so, they were hardly saying anything about you, or trying to get to you, but rather they were trying to do something to or about the ones that blow people up.
And you don't do that, do you?
My point is that all you've seen are those pics, you don't know (and you don't seem to care) why they were in there. And to top it off, you seem to want to blame everyone who isn't like you, like some racist or something.
