PS...
I feel I should follow up on the previous posting. Today the Danish PM met with all foreign ambassadors to Denmark to explain the Danish stand on the publication of the 12 Mohammed drawings. He is also to appear in a broadcast to several Muslim countries to once again clarify that freedom of speech and religious freedom are both important rights in Danish society – and both carry equal weight and must therefore exist side by side.
On the same note of outreach and consolidation, a Jordanian tabloid newspaper published three of the drawings and urged to reason. However, the battle of who-is-more-in-the-right rages on: Le Monde published its own drawing of the Prophet on its front page – his face was made up of letters, words saying “You may not depict the Prophet”…
Hopefully, things will calm down, and everyone will have learned a lesson about respect – for others, for their beliefs, for their rights, for their sentiments, for them.
