#1 These cartoonists should be packing sidearms & wearing bulletproof vests. (I know, it's a stretch of my imagination.) Denmark (& all of Europe) should check their laws concerning incitement to commit murder & then commit to enforce those laws. We are all Danes now.

#3 Those bovines deserve it. And the public apology by the Danish prime Minister is not enough. We need to see the bovine more humiliated on T.V.,although he did a fairly good job on Aljazeera channel. (Begging and pleading for forgiveness would satisfy us more.) And ofcourse, the person who drew the cartoons should be publicly executed under Sharia law in Denmark. And the next time Denmark newspapers publish another cartoon, we will boycott all European goods and wreck their entire economy. You loosers. Ha! Ha! Ha!

#4 Too bad Denmark owns the seconds largest oil reserves in the world - after Canada. Once we pump Saudi Arabia dry as the empty quarter we can make the Danes extra rich. Perhaps Truth can drive a cab in Copenhagen.

It may take thousands of deaths in some western city, but at some point enough people in the west will wake up. I am deeply hoping it doesn't come to this but I tell you with all solemnity and seriousness: before you impose your religious practices on me, millions will die. And they won't be in my country.

Frankly, I'm looking forward to it. How else can we rid the world of this backward, hatefilled, death cult which brainwashes it's children creating perpetual lunacy throughout the world and through the centuries. We MUST lance this boil. Since the extremism of using nuclear weapons to end WW2, the nations of the world attempted to organize to discuss differences and share prosperity. There have been many positive outcomes, yet the world slides toward chaos over the hate filled words of an eighth century pedophile. MADNESS ! Let's end it. Let's end it NOW.

#21 What Mr. "Truth" fails to remember is that the Muslim conquests were achieved by trained warriors fighting as an army. The pathetic little terrorists that Islam can scrape up these days wouldn't be successful against my two little black-belted daughters, let alone the trained armies of the West. Let Mr. "Truth" look to the examples of the conquests of Iraq and Afghanistan, of the failure of the Arab Ummah's four open wars against Israel, and of the failure of two Palestinian intifadas. Yes, Israel's troops have withdrawn from the Gaza Strip, but see what Allah gives the Gazans for their reward: wind-blown sand and unemployment. Israel's Separation Wall is nearly completed; soon those in the West Bank will share Gaza's riches, and the world's scorn.

#22 “before you impose your religious practices on me, millions will die. And they won't be in my country”.
Don’t be silly. When our armies conquer you, we will give you three choices. First choice: Become a Muslim and you will have the same rights and privileges as all of us-a full citizen of the Islamic state-you will become one of us!). Second choice: Don’t become a Muslim. In this case you may practice your religious rituals but NOT publicly. You must obey Sharia law. You CANNOT obey secular common law although you may obey your religion’s family law (However, even these cases of personal law may be over-ruled by our courts). You cannot display your religious symbols publicly. You cannot preach your religion (But we can, of course). If you approach a Muslim walking on the side walk you MUST immediately move out of his way. In other words, you must act subdued and humbled. You cannot walk with honor and pride because you have been humiliated. You must act meekly in the Islamic state. (Your days of talking freely, like now, are numbered). You must, of course, pay the jizya (a tax) to the Muslims each year. All this is because you have chosen to follow your false religion and have not accepted the true religion, Islam. Third choice: You must be killed by us if you don’t accept the above two choices. You may ask why Muslims enjoy full rights in secular countries. This is because we are the people chosen by God to spread His true religion. We are the best people. Muslims deserve all the rights. Non-Muslims deserve limited rights.

“Those who have taken the name Mohammad, strapped bombs to themselves and murdered 1000s. That's what I find offensive”

Your being offended by these extremists in is not the fault of us Muslims. We are not responsible for their acts. Osama bin laden, Zarqawi and other such fanatics were all made by YOU! In fact, these people are still on the pay roll of your leaders. They are paid and protected by George Bush and Tony Blair. That is why our Muslim security forces cannot find and punish them. YOUR governments are sheltering them. They even know where these fanatics are. How come Osama pops up on Aljazeera just when Bush gets in trouble? They are all pals! Yes. Muslim secret service agents recently caught George Bush, Tony Blair, Osama Bin Laden, Zarqawi, Mullah Omar, Condoleeza Rice, Donald Rumsfield and Karzai all hudled together, naked, in a Rotary club in Kabul, singing the following song:

"Fifteen men on a dead man's chest,
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum,
Drink and the devil had done for the rest,
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum.,
The mate was fixed by the bosun's pike,
The bosun brained with a marlinspike,
And cookey's throat was marked belike,
It had been gripped by fingers ten;
And there they lay, all good dead men,
Like break o'day in a boozing ken,
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum."

#26 The poster "Truth has come" is not a Moslem, but is attempting a charade of sorts (think Jonathan Swift + he's giving lots of hints that direction in his piece) to illustrate his points regarding the problems with Islam and the Moslem mindset against the West. Somewhat effective, but also may be intended to flame up opposition to the Islamic threat. Again, somewhat effective, but no cigar from ex-lib.

#28 The first large paragraph is an accurate summary of the Moslem "ONE ISLAMIC WORLD" position, and is therefore useful.

The other point is this--if you found yourself boiling mad at this naive representation of what the Moslem extremists are all about, then you probably understand what Moslem extremists are all about.

However, before we jump off the deep end, the Indonesian president said only that the cartoons were "insensitive" and that "as a religious people" we (the Indonesians) "should accept the Danish aplogy."

There's hope in this mess--just not on the side of the extremists.

#30 One more thing--the Danish cartoonists should be afraid, and I think that illustrates why more Moslems don't challenge the extremists. Think about it. If you had the leaders of the Crips or Bloods living in your neighborhood, would you speak out against them? You wouldn't.

As a trained journalist I feel bad for the cartoonists, but really, they're heroes because they showed the world what Islamofacism is all about, and who widespread it is. We owe them.

So buy Danish cheese and other products and send letters of support. They could really use it about now.

#32 Yeah, lopt. We had the same problem going on with Antiwar and Gentle a couple of years ago. In this case, Moslem men pretending to be an Australian woman and a female university student, respectively. Truth has come is Caucasian/American, and is probably trying to drive the point home about the issues--still just a poser. The real Islamofacists are way different and much, much worse.

The points about what will actually be instituted if they have their way were accurate, but I think I'd like to get in on that naked rum party. LOL.

Danish cheese is great and available in most supermarkets or natural grocery stores.

We Americans have more purchasing power than the Islamos, so let's put our money where our mouth is. When you order, you could let the merchant know why. Word gets around.

#39 Not true. My parents always taught me to speak the truth. They taught me to never trust non-Muslims and to always hate them. This is because they say blasphemous things about God; that God became a man, or that He has a son, or that there is no God, or that God is a cow etc. Actually God is unique and there is nothing like Him and He is outside the Universe. This is what Muslims believe.
We hate you because of the horrible things you say about God. You must live in subjugation under us if you don't change your beliefs.

And that includes blowback to those, from the far left or the far right, who use Islamacists to further their own agendas.

#42 "My parents always taught me . . . to . . . hate."

'nuff said, "Truth has come"

If someone else believes something wacky about God, what's it to you? If you think you know better, isn't that enough? Or is your God so small he needs you--in your enormous insignificance--to defend his allmighty Being? Hmm? Do you propose to put yourself ahead of Him? Wouldn't be better to wait unti the end of the age and let Him sort it out? Or is this more about you, in reality, and isn't that idolatry? You cannot know God's mind, so you cannot know what to do about other people. Take care of yourself and your own problems. That should be enough for a lifetime.

#43 lopt: True about extremists on either end of the spectrum -- some just want a fight. Of course it will always be argued that one culture was minding it's own business when the other "started it." How it's finished will depend on the courage and clear thinking of those who understand the complexities of the conflict, and the ability to lead.

#49 Truth says "Peace".

It is written that Jeremiah prophesied::

They cry Peace! Peace!
But there is no peace.

And Joel spoke:

Proclaim this among the nations:
Prepare war, stir up the mighty men,
Let all the men of war draw near, let them come up.

Beat your plowshares into swords, and your pruning hooks into spears;
let the weak say, "I am a warrior."

... Let the nations bestir themselves.

Is this what you, or the ones you purport to speak for, want? For it is what you are bringing about.

#51 Well, on the one hand they have the success (more or less) of the Iraqi and Afghan elections - terribly threatening to the Islamacists.

And on the other hand they have the example of Ahmadinajad and the likelihood (as they see it) that Muslims will be able to bully the rest of the world into sharia and special treatment. As one writer in the Arab News put it on Friday or Saturday, "You need us more than we need you."

European actions pretty much have encouraged that attitude, at least until this incident, as has our boy Kofi and many in the MSM.

#59 I was just remembering some things .com said about the Saudi men he worked with over there. No contact with girls except for his mothers and sisters unless Daddy was rich enough to buy him a wife, or until he was making a substantial enough income of his own to effect the purchase himself (anyone remember the Saudi unemployment figures?). The resulting years of frustration channeled into sadistic plans for revenge against the little wife for taking so long to get there, no doubt partially fueled by fears that after all that waiting he won't be able to perform, and she'll look elsewhere. I wonder if Mr. Truth's Daddy bought him a wife, or if he is killing time at at cyberpub because that's one experience he'll never have?

I was shocked by .com's retelling here of what he said were the more innocuous of such conversations he had on the subject. (I like to think I don't shock all that easily -- as a child I read Mama's textbooks as she headed toward that doctorate in developmental psych.) He refused to share the nocuous conversations, but they clearly shaped his conclusions about how Islam's jihad problem must be solved.

I think there's a strong element of Iran stirring up trouble as a way to distract the west and/or give us an idea of how bad they could make things if they're pressed.

Also, there hasn't been a big terrorist attack inside the western world since 7/7, and I suspect there's a strong element of blood thirst to all this.
