#1 Hmmmm...how could this be happening? How could we stop the spread of Islamophobia through negative stereotypes of muslims as violent fanatics who want to impose their religion on all? Where could these baseless fears be coming from? Must be the West's fault, for being racist and harboring ingrained, irrational suspicions and hatred of the 'others.' Can't think of any other possible explanation.

#2 You're right Monsieur. If millions of Westerners moved to Muslim countries they would be welcomed with open arms, and their cultural differences would be treated with the utmost respect in every way. The current problems are entirely the fault of the Europeans.

#3 The sorry website is meaningless if the folks behind it are unwilling to put their names/faces to their apologies. Could be one guy behind the site for all we can tell. It was pathetic when the lefties tried that about Iraq, it's pathetic now.

#4 Great satire, #1 & 2, but unfortunately, there are vast minorities in both Europe and North America that firmly believe what you said is the absolute truth. We need to fear THOSE people almost as much as we need to be suspicious of the muzzies.

#5 It would appear that the Mullahs who organized the cartoon show have succeeded.

#6 During my lunch hour today I walked over to Border's and touched all the Qurans. Then I went to Scandanavia House and bought a little wooden Viking that was made in Denmark.

#7 what up trailing? The site isn't what it says. Is the rest rubbish too. (link to original is gone)

Something afoot? Satire? Nasty sense of letdown.

#9 www.sorrynorwaydenmark.com seems to have some red flags buried within:

There is a strong tradition of friendship and cooperation between the Norwegian and Danish people and Arab people. Of most note is the continued support that these governments give to the Palestinian people in their struggle for freedom and liberation, and the brave stance that these governments have often taken to defend Palestinian rights.

and then in the "links" section, there is a link to a statement by the Palestinian Association in Norway, which in turn links to their website - www.safsaf.org. This site is in arabic with a smattering of either danish or norwegian - and some interesting links, such as this anti-Bush propaganda photo:

http://www.safsaf.org/2006nid/fo09_02_day.htm

I suspect that they are only sorry that the cartoon intifada interferes with European funding for Palestinian radicalism.

#10 I'm sorry, Hupomoger Clans9827. I must've messed up Fred's link thingy when posting -- I found these articles at www.lucianne.com, and the Muslim site is www.sorrynorwaydenmark.com
