PARIS (Reuters) - Denmark said on Friday it could not apologise for cartoons in a Danish newspaper depicting the Prophet Mohammad as outrage spread across the Muslim world from the Middle East to countries in Asia.
More European newspapers published the cartoons on Friday, arguing freedom of speech was sacred, but angry Muslims staged violent protests against jokes they consider "blasphemous".
"Neither the Danish government nor the Danish nation as such can be held responsible for drawings published in a Danish newspaper," Danish Prime Minister Anders Fogh Rasmussen said after meeting with Muslim envoys in Copenhagen.
"A Danish government can never apologise on behalf of a free and independent newspaper," he said. "This is basically a dispute between some Muslims and a newspaper."
The west wants freedom of speech. Here is what Muslims want.
Mona Omar Attia, Egypt's ambassador to Denmark, said after a meeting with Rasmussen that she was satisfied with the position of the Danish government but noted the prime minister had said he could not interfere with the press.
"This means the whole story will continue and that we are back to square one again. The government of Denmark has to do something to appease the Muslim world," Attia said.
That's what Muslims want, appeasment. Why? Because Islam means submission and not peace as the left would have you believe.
While tiny Denmark stands up to Muslims and refuses to submit, Britain chooes appeasement. A dangerous route with disasterous consequences as evidenced by the Islamization of Britain.
Join the anti Boycott and stand up for free speech.
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.
