Denmark Govt DENIES Cartoon Apology, Cartoonists, their Children Hunted
The Danes caved? After all of that for nothing? They groveled? They are licking Radical Islamic boot? There was a false report of a similar apology, but this looks credible from Mark F in Qatar. Meanwhile, the cartoonists and their children are hunted like animals. From Agora;
Daughter of Cartoonist sought out by 12 Me
A group of Moslem males have tried to get at the daughter of one of the 12 cartoonists who drew the cartoons of Muhammed at her school. The political spokesman of the Liberals, Jens Rohde, revealed this during an interview with TV-Avisen while explaining his and the Prime Minister’s attack on the business community in Denmark, charging that they have put profits over Freedom of Speech
Not at school
Rohde says that the 12 cartoonists have had their lives overturned and are now living in hiding, after receiving several death threats.
"And a daugter of one of the cartoonists was sought out by 12 Moslem males - they were looking to get to her. Fortunately she wasn’t at school," Jens Rohde said.

DOHA: Denmark has officially apologised to Saudi Arabia on the issue of the 12
blasphemous cartoons of Prophet Mohammed (PBUH) published by a Danish newspaper last September, according to Arabic web portal Ilaf based in London.
Danish ambassador to Saudi Arabia Hans Klingenberg tendered his government’s apology to Muslims over the publication of the blasphemous cartoons in the Danish daily Jyllands-Posten.
The 12 cartoons were later reprinted in over 100 European magazines and newspapers, inviting the wrath and anger of Muslims all over the world.
The cartoons led to a boycott of Danish products in Muslim countries, including Qatar, and agitations in many countries had turned violent.
Denmark’s apology came during a meeting with Saudi Consultative Council Chairman Salih bin Homaid who received the Danish ambassador in the Saudi capital in Riyadh, the Saudi Press Agency has reported.
The Danish ambassador said his country’s government and people denou-nced the insult to Prophet Mohammed (PBUH).
The latest move by the Danish government comes in the wake of Saudi Arabia’s request to the Danish government to give a satisfactory explanation about the delay in solving the cartoon crisis.
Huh? I will not rally for Denmark if they caved....uh uh, no way.
UPDATE: Agora says. NO WAY, the Danes did not cave, here, clearly developing story;
Ambassador denies apologising for Cartoons
The Danish Ambassador to Saudi Arabia, Hans Klingenberg, denies having apologised for the Muhammed cartoons on behalf of the Danish government. The Saudi News Service, SPA, mistakenly reported this earlier today.
The article then goes into blah blag mode. I’ll translate it later when I have posted this. Here comes the interesting part:
He says that SPA’s report of the events does not match what he saw and that he would be a poor diplomat if he did not know of and report the Danish position on the cartoons.
"I deny having apologised on behalf of the Danish government, and I should know, shouldn’t I?" he says.
Yes, indeed, he ought to know. I got the story from an American soldier in Qatar so I assigned a level of validity to it I rarely would with the Islamic propaganda operations.
The apology story is false.
UPDATE: March 4th...........another retraction and correction from Agora here;
As the subject says. I am sorry to have misinformed you. I have updated the
article here:

Ok, this all turned out to be a hoax. Apparently, Jens Rohde misquoted the
information he got from the meeting he attended. Scroll down for the latest. I
will post an analysis of who I think have been incorrect later. So far, the
actual facts of the story are as follows:
Four weeks ago, 6-8 Moslem girls showed up at the school of the daughter of one
of the cartoonists, asking for "the daughter of the cartoonist who had insulted
their prophet". They were turned away at the door.











He didn't appologise, it's the same thing as the last "appology". I guess the saudis are just missing danish cheese and think "Mohameds roses" is a stupid name for pastries, so they use some creative translation of old statements and suddenly they have an appology

Another way of showing your support for Denmark (Danmark in danish): Ask all women who are pregnant with or have just given birth to twin boys to name them Dan and Mark. Danielle and Mark if it's a girl and a boy. Danielle and Margaret if it's two girls (our queen is named Margrethe).
Spread the word :-)

I think my comment above was actually a bit too broad. I am fed up with the radical and terrorist factions and not Muslims in general. Especially not Sandmonkey. I read his blog and I hope that he truly represents most Muslims. I am afraid though that as the fringe elements do more and more damage and violence that the pendulum will swing more toward all Muslims and not just those that are causing the trouble. We may be seeing the beginning of that already. The Middle East does not want to get into a fighting war with the West because although there will be damage on both sides but the Middle East will get the brunt of it. Push the West far enough and they can and will flatten whole cities.

It turns out that the story about the cartoonist's daughter being haunted was greatly exagerated. It was just a group of girls the same age as the daughter who came looking for her on a matter unrelated to the whole cartoon affair. Jens Rohde, the politician who told the media the story, has apologized for misunderstanding the whole thing.
