Denmark - The shot heard around the world

Lost Budgie emailed me this:

“The protests in the Middle East have proven that the cartoonist was right,” said Tarek Fatah, a director of the Muslim Canadian Congress.

“It's falling straight into that trap of being depicted as a violent people and proving the point that, yes, we are.

”Today's Globe & Mail

Thanks for your candor, Mr. Fatah. Wasn't much of a "trap" though, was it?

The more they protest and the more violent their chants, the more the veil is lowered and the world can see Islam for what it is - intolerant and violent.

Michelle has a round up of photos from Muslims protesting in London.

















The Dane's didn't know it at the time but they just fired the second shot heard around the world.

By the rude bridge that arched the flood,
Their flag to April's breeze unfurled;
Here once the embattled farmers stood;
And fired the shot heard round the world.

The foe long since in silence slept;
Alike the conqueror silent sleeps,
And Time the ruined bridge has swept
Down the dark stream that seaward creeps.

On this green bank, by this soft stream,
We place with joy a votive stone,
That memory may their deeds redeem,
When, like our sires, our sons are gone.

O Thou who made those heroes dare
To die, and leave their children free, --
Bid Time and Nature gently spare
The shaft we raised to them and Thee.

Emerson

Then, as now, freedom will prevail.

Remember, buy danish! Help support free speech.

In the UK buy Arla foods.

Also, here's a petition in support of the the Jyllands-Posten.
