Danes Defy Dhimmitude
A group of youth of the People's Party of Denmark had a mohammad drawing contest while at camp this past summer. They apparently spent some time mocking mohammad. Danish TV aired the amateur video.
The leader of the group, Kenneth Kristensen disapproved of the events, but didn't apologize.
Danish muslims are saying they won't be provoked ...
However, there looks to be some mis-reporting on al-Jazeera in their arabic publications anyway. Hot Air has a translation of the al-Jazeera version of this story that adds to what Kristensen was reported to have said. While it reports that he disapproved of the groups actions but refused to appologize for it, it adds:
The Muslim Brotherhood is none too happy about the Danish youth practicing free speech either.
I've read a good bit this weekend about the increasing conflicts in Europe between muslims and Europeans. Inevitably, the conflicts are referred to as being between 'gangs'. The muslim 'gangs' are referred to as either 'Asian' or 'North African' while the Europeans are referred to as 'white'. The conflicts are referred to as 'racially motivated'.
Another thing I've noticed is that there might be three or four incidents in which muslim youth attack Europeans and little is reported. Then when Europeans, or as reported 'whites', retaliate, it is reported as 'whites' attacking Asians or North Africans in racial violence.
In this story we have some Danish youth at a summer camp being silly, nothing more. But silly adolescent antics aren't allowed now are they? They were covertly video taped. When those tapes are made public, they are portrayed as racists. But numerous hollywood types can make outrageous statements about the Pope or 'middle Americans' and that is perfectly acceptable.
There really is a double standard.
And I'm pretty tired of being expected to be tolerant of an intolerant religion whose leaders have openly declared they want to destroy Western society.
You can go over to sugiero to see the evil videos for yourself!

The images, filmed by artist Martin Rosengaard Knudsen who posed as a member of the party for several months to document attitudes among young members, show a number of young people drinking, singing and drawing cartoons ridiculing the Prophet Mohammad.
The leader of the group, Kenneth Kristensen disapproved of the events, but didn't apologize.
"It's not my kind of humor and it would not have happened if I had been there. It must not be repeated," he told Danish state TV.

COPENHAGEN (Reuters) - Muslim leaders in Denmark on Saturday condemned video showing members of the anti-immigrant Danish Peoples' Party (DPP) drawing cartoons mocking the Prophet Mohammad, but said they would not be goaded into taking action.
"Against the background of the problems earlier, we have to be careful," said Ahmed Abu-Laban, a Copenhagen imam who helped organise a trip to Egypt and Lebanon last year to rally support among Muslim leaders for protests against those drawings.
However, there looks to be some mis-reporting on al-Jazeera in their arabic publications anyway. Hot Air has a translation of the al-Jazeera version of this story that adds to what Kristensen was reported to have said. While it reports that he disapproved of the groups actions but refused to appologize for it, it adds:
He called on Muslims to recognize that the Messiah is the son of God, and they must form the tariff books on the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him “to improve his image in the West and the definition of it.”

While the Muslim world’s anger hasn’t yet abated against the background of the Pope of Vatican’s offensive statements against Islam and its prophet, Certain sectors in Western media once again resumed its fierce campaign against Islam, the recent of which was yesterday Friday October 6, 2006, when an organization affiliated to one of the Danish ruling coalition government, the Danish People’s Party, displayed video footage offending the prophet and portraying him in an indecent position.
The Muslim Brotherhood released a statement the following day saying that ” Muslims still come under heated vulgar words said and portraits displayed by a party in the Danish coalition government, displaying stills of video footage offending the world’s most honorable man, Prophet Mohammed PBUH” The statement added that the recurrence of such irresponsible acts shows how deep hatred the West harbors against Islam and prophet and Muslims “This is a tip of the iceberg”, the statement read, adding that this bitter hostility shows sectors in the West’s deep hatred of justice, right and all good virtues enshrined in the religion of Islam.
