BOYCOTT Danish Products on this list

[westerndiamond]

........ and EJ

You are wrong a lot of us do care. I for one agree that it was most dis-respectful what the Danes put in the paper.

Just because some of us disagree with certain periphery issues that have since come up in here, doesnt mean we "dont care".

Having an alternative viewpoint or opinion, doesnt mean that that i/we do not care.

gangster, it doesn't matter that many of us said the cartoons were really distasteful and shouldn't have been published. It doesn't matter that we tried to explain the importance of free speech in our cultures, no matter if it is abused or not. No one cares what we say!

NO LISTENS OR CARES BECAUSE WE ARE WESTERNERS AND AUTOMATICALLY EVIL.

Totally agree K.

I find it interesting that they, in all probability, truly do believe that the likes of you and i, Choc etc dont care.

Are you high? What is up with you?? what is this 'west west west' arguement for?? what is this division for? I know you don’t care, but sadly, your turning out to be less wise then I presumed.

urgh, this was purely meant for you (arnie). I was saying in a "I know you don’t care what I think..." TONE.
NOR that I meant, "you don’t care about this issue"

so can we kindly be careful in reading since it is earning bad sarcasm - Kenelli, NO- westerners are not automatically evil.

Again, nothing about east, west ... Its about Muslims. You sympathize with the incident - good enough, you don’t agree on the boycotts, Okay, cool.

I am an Indian, I come from a democratic country. I don’t see a point to discuss City News (although I agree on subject to restrictions part) cause I believe no one can proudly talk about how egalitarian our press/media is.
During the Iraq war all the news was controlled by the US govt.
I remember this funny incident during the time of war. The US media broadcasted images and clips of the US army playing football with kids and helping around in the country, when the truth was something else - inorder to earn a good image in front of their citizens. Poor Americans.
Few days ago, BBC broadcasted a survey in which it stated that 100 army soldiers have been killed from 2004-2006. Well hello? Fact is, if you open the news paper, there is at lest one suicide bomb which kills many soldiers in one day.
My point is, We all have right to accurate information. Its sad for many of westerners that they do not know what’s going on. I am obviously not talking about you guys which live in this part of the world. So when, people from the west, talk, honestly, I can say ‘we’ do not ‘expect’ you to understand.
Maybe I aint making sense But all I am saying is, Nothing is wrong with Brisbane & co. arnie. Cause we see it so much in the news papers/Tvs - the amount of Politics that goes against Muslims, it can certainly make any Muslim angry.

we all never like the cartoons ... period .. EJ is right .... and EJ FYI I WAS ON YOUR SIDE ever since...

Hey MP, I know.. so sorry that its getting you bad name.

SOoooo, WHICH BUTTER ARE WE EATING THESE DAYS GUYS :lol:
