World War III has already happened and finished, sorry.
WWII was The Freedom Lovers vs. The Fascist.
WWIII was The Freedom Lovers vs. The Commies

We are currently in World War IV.
The Freedom Lovers vs. Radical Islam (Fascism reborn)
I got my money on The Freedom Lovers

And World War V as I predict....
The Freedom Lovers vs. The Commies (Again :\)

And the cycle will repeat...And I will always place my money on the home team, The Freedom Lovers

Don't laugh, it's possible with the way this is going.

And you would find a way to justify it too... :laugh:

Naa, I am gonna justify what Muslim's gonna do. All I am gonna do is say the West is equally stupid. 😀

If we just sat back and let them tell us how to run our own countries, we would be even stupider, but that's not going to happen.

Heh, if running your country means insulting the other religion and countries every chance you get, I'd say that's pretty stupid.

What is stupid is burning 2 embassies because some newspaper in those countries ran a cartoon you don't like.

Well, what is stupid too is spitting in someone face and cry foul when that someone punch you in your face.

Shhh...

That's called "freedom of murder" and it's the kind of freedom you can expect if this is allowed to continue.

They stormed the Danish embassy, which is Danish territory according to international law. By all accounts, this is an act of war, and Denmark should feel free to attack Syria.

The analogy is more like calling someone ignorant and having them pull out a gun and shoot you in the face...

What this tells me is that you approve of this violence. So if you think that an appropriate response to a Danish newspaper cartoon is torching their embassy in Syria, and beheading their tourists in Gaza, then I have nothing further to say to you, since the abovementioned makes you my enemy.

Hehe, I don't think drawing Muslim's prophet in demeaning ways is as simple as calling someone ignorant. But hey, whatever you say.

But still, you'd have to be pretty stupid to call someone ignorant knowing the guy is armed and ready to shoot you in the face.

Ntdz - this bastard is simply laughing at us. He's not trying to argue what's right and what's wrong... he's simply threatening us. To him, these radicals are free to make their own rules, simply because they're ready to kill to do it.

Well you know what - I would fight to the death to preserve my freedom.

Heh, I don't really care what you think but just to clarify for everyone else. I do not approve violence, and in fact I hope the whole incident never happened. All I want to point out is it takes two to tangle, and if you wanna spit into someone face, you better be ready to face the consequence.

Yeah... It's called Collateral Damage... Like when good moslems get blown up together with infidels.... Do the moslems killed as collateral damage get the 72 virgins as well when they go to heaven?

Sigh... First we publish cartoons of Mohammad.
Then they stop buying our goods, burn our flag (also a cross), burn pictures of our Prime Minister, step on our flag... Now, they burn our embassy. As you may know, the ground upon which the embassy stands is Danish. Therefore this is an direct attack upon Denmark.
Is this ever going to end?
Jyllands Posten have apologized long ago.
The Norwegian government have apologized long ago, but they *still* got their embassy burned...

ALL moslems in the world absolutely need to condemn this incident.
We Danes look on in disbelief as these people act like animals. We have not gotten more tolerant against Islam because of this incident, and the further the moslems take this, the less tolerant we will get. When do the moslems realize that the way they act do not create tolerance, but only hate?

The boycott of Danish products, I can understand. It is a mature reaction, if somewhat misguided since the target should have been Jylland Posten and not all of Denmark.
This, however...

Naser Khader, a danish politician (and moslem) originally from Syria stated in the news that Syria is a dictatorship and that the demonstration (and burning) would not have happened without permission. It seems Syria wants to get back in bed with the Arab League (they were ousted because of a lack of religion...)


I am a Muslim, and I have to say I agree % 100 with what you say, I was deeply offended by the cartoons, but it only became a big worry when all around Europe they started to get published over and over and over, sticking it to the face of Muslims everywhere and that's how it inflamed.

I am extremely saddened by the attack on your country's embassies and I would have felt the same exact way as you if it was my country's embassy in Denmark getting attacked and I can't see how they are justified, as they represent the level of ignorance and extremism of those who are responsible for such actions, not only that, they put the rest of us Muslims that totally disagree with these violent approaches in a very embarrassing position, you can't believe how enraged I was when I saw the footage of the embassy on TV I jumped screaming, "Why those idiots have to come and add fuel to the fire, why have they attacked the embassy, what is the point ? And what does that have to do with Islam, I am sure Allah will punish them hard for it one way or the other, as they are not only damaging that property that they have no right to, but inciting hatred against those Muslims that don't believe in such acts and condemn them too"

And BTW what you have said about Naser Khader's statement is absolutley true, and is the main reason why sht happened today.
If I were a Dane, I would start protests all over the country in demand for political action against Syria through the UN, as a punishment for their lack of regard for the property of the Danish government" and it's obvious that they did sht to stop it.

When it first started I was glad that it was all protests and boycott (even though I don't think a good company like Arla which I enjoyed their excellent products when I sued to live in the ME ,they shouldn't have been dragged along for the ride like that) and was hoping that cartoons will stop being published once everyone understands through the peaceful protests , why exactly they are more offending to Muslims than anything else.
And perhaps at that point people will start understanding the situation rather than it being something forced on them (which I don't think it should be forced on them, it should be rather explained to everyone).

But alas, I feel ashamed of such people and I believe that European countries should expel all of those who get out of line, and jeopardize the national stability of any hosting country.
 
Even though I don't support the publishing of these offensive cartoons, Moslems and especially expatriate moslems in western countires should realize that they live in secular societies where religion can be put on a platform and poked fun. They should know and accept this fact before deciding to immigrate.

Tell me this...What does the Danish government have to do with a newspaper that ran a cartoon? What do the people in the Danish embassy in Syria have to do with it? Did the Danish embassy in Syria spit in their face? Or was it some random citizen that the govt has no right to censure?

Oh let me guess, maybe the Syrian media portrays Danish government as Muslim hating government and all Danish people wanna do is to kill every Muslim on earth? Just like how some people here think Muslim is trying to do to them?
 
yea maybe they should burn some mosques considering how they've been treating their women. wheres the outrage? thats 600 million under oppression.

I agree, but I also think that it would be nice if people didnt use their liberty to harass other people and ..i mean if i said the most offensive thing to me would be to draw a picture of my dad grandma, i dont think a newspaper would publish something like that just to spite me..I think the paper was trying to piss people off..but I also think that the people should realize that we cant have violent confrontations over religious differences.. but then again it isnt that easy for me to just make some generalization about how they should behave when we are telling the rest of the world how evil they are..they do the same thing to us and we constantly complain about it..
 
I think the cartoons are an example of Satire
They are pointing out how many in the west see radical Muslims or in some cases Muslims in general.
