In Solidarity with the Cartoonist, Kurt Westergaard, Danish Newspapers Reprint the Cartoons of Muhammad
It is to be noted that no newspaper in the United Kingdom or in the United States has yet had the courage to reprint any of the cartoons of the prophet Muhammad. Denmark is a small country, but its people have more courage, it seems, than than the British and Americans combined! The proud Danes put PRINCIPLE before PROFIT. If 'freedom of speech' and 'freedom of expression' survive this onslaught by the 'people of the desert', then we will have the Danes - and other courageous Europeans - to thank! Shame on the home of freedom, the USA! Shame on the home of the 'mother of parliaments', Great Britain! - ©Mark
BBC: Danish newspapers have reprinted one of several caricatures of the Prophet Muhammad which sparked violent protests across the Muslim world two years ago.
They say they wanted to show their commitment to freedom of speech after an alleged plot to kill one of the cartoonists behind the drawings.
Three suspects were held in Denmark on Tuesday "to prevent a murder linked to terrorism", officials said.
The cartoons were originally published by Jyllands-Posten in September 2005.
Danish embassies were attacked around the world and dozens died in riots that followed.

Jyllands-Posten and many other major newspapers - including Politiken and Berlingske Tidende - reprinted the caricature in their Wednesday editions. Danish Muhammad cartoon reprinted >>>

It is at least shameful to see what happens in Denmark/Danmark.
A cartoonist draw some sketches about Islam and
was about to be murdered. Is that "freedom of speech"?
Is it compulsory to share the same belief about Islam? Of course not.
After all, Westergaard lives in Danmark and not in
some islamic country. The Danish are not muslims, nor are they obliged to obey to what islamists do. Hence, if islamists do not like these drawings just get out of Danmark. Let the Danish do what they like, they are at their home, they didn't publish the drawings in Saudi Arabia, nor did they force anyone to see them.
Europeans WAKE UP!!! We'll have lots of "jihad" and similar incidents in the future.
CONGRATULATIONS to the brave Danish (Danske) people. Greetings from Athens Greece/Grekland
