Islamic Society of Denmark Used Fake Cartoons to Create Story!

THIS WHOLE DANISH CARTOON CONTROVERSY WAS MADE UP BY THE "ISLAMIC SOCIETY OF DENMARK" WHO SPREAD THE FAKE CARTOONS ON THEIR TRIP TO THE MIDDLE EAST!

The leader of the group is a radical Islamist known for supporting the Anti-Western Islamist struggle!

The organisation Islamic Society in Denmark toured the Middle-East to create awareness about the cartoons, bringing 3 additional images, which HAD NEVER been published in any media source. Evidently, the originals were not offensive enough for the trip so they had to add these three:


The first of the three additional pictures, which are of poor quality, shows Muhammad as a pedophile demon.*


The second shows Muhammed with a pig snout.*


The third depicts a praying Muslim being raped by a dog*.

BBC World also aired a story showing one of the three non-published images, on 2006-01-30, and wrongly claimed it had been published in Jyllands-Posten.

On the tour, the group claimed to represent 21 different Muslim organisations in Denmark, although many of these groups have disclaimed any connection.

Akhmad Akkari, spokesman of the Danish Muslim organisations which organised the tour, explained that the three drawings had been added to "give an insight in how hateful the atmosphere in Denmark is towards Muslims."

Akkari claimed he does not know the origin of the three pictures. He said they had been sent anonymously to Danish Muslims. However, when Ekstra Bladet asked if it could talk to these Muslims, Akkari refused to reveal their identity. These images had however never been published in Jyllands-Posten.

The society also allegedly exaggerated its membership, claiming to represent all of Denmark's 200,000 Muslims, when the actual number of adherents is believed to be fewer than 15,000. [30]. 500-1000 people attend their Friday prayer gathering each week[31].

Imam Ahmad Abu Ladan is involved in an international group of Muslims who are known for supporting the anti-Western Islamist struggle of the school of global Jihad.

Imam Ahmad Abu Ladan also tried to block the re-election of the right-wing government in Denmark in the previous election.

Imam Ahmad Abu Laban, the leader of the organisation stated in Al Jazeera that Muslims should boycott Denmark, despite giving contradictory assurances to Western media. Ahmad Abu Laban, previously declared unwelcome in several Arab states, was one of the front figures on the tour [citation needed].

Danish Prime Minister Anders Fogh Rasmussen said of Muslims criticising the country in the Arab territories: "I am speechless that those people, whom we have given the right to live in Denmark and where they freely have chosen to stay, are now touring Arab countries and inciting antipathy towards Denmark and the Danish people"[33].

Further misinformation spread among Arab Muslims include claims that Jyllands-Posten is a government-owned newspaper (it is privately owned) - spokesman for the Danish delegation Muhammed al Samha, and delegation member Ahmed al-Harbi said in the Egyptian newspaper al-Ahram: "Jyllands-Posten, a newspaper belonging to the ruling Danish party - an extreme right-wing party - [was] publishing drawings and sketches of the prophet Muhammad."

* I shrank up the outrageous and fake cartoons from original size. I do not intend to offend.

The Brussels Journal has been following the story closely from Europe.
Shawn Wasson notices the selective outrage.
The Astute Blogger has more on Abu Ladan lying to the media!
Counterterrorism Blog has more on Abu Laden's mideast stunts, today.
Zombietime has the largest collection of Muhammad pictures on the net.
And, Pajamas Media is carrying the story from a variety of blog perspectives.
Michelle Malkin has a huge roundup on the two-faced American media.
Belmont Club has thoughtful analysis on what this all means.

The mainstream news is so out of touch with this story.

I note the media doesn't have any problem reporting and showing pictures of Abu Graib and inciting Muslims.

But the media isn't show very much about these jihadists and their disgusting signs because they don't want to incite the West.

And from another article today:

If our usually big mouth Media are too scared to take-on the Islamists in this issue, what message does this send to the Islamists? SCARE US AND WE'LL SHUT UP?

Well you know, we'd be angry too if they showed disrespect to our symbols.. such as burning the US flag.. oh wait, they already did that.

I think the "funny" thing about the cartoon of Mohammed with the bomb in his turban is that is was so on the mark! It was as if his brain had been replaced with a bomb on a short fuse. That is Islam today, and not just some radical fringe. Lunatic leaders on short fuses in charge in Iran and Palestine. The MAINSTREAM GOVERNMENTS of Iran and Palestine are lead by religious fanatics - and they want nuclear weapons!

They ARE a threat to the rest of the world. And they DO want to start world war three over a CARTOON! Will they get a clue in time to save their own skins??

There is a silver lining hear. Denmark can close all its embassies to these countries and save some money. Maybe it'll slow down immigration too.


Denmark is one of the few in E.U., maybe the only one, that has cracked down on that side of immigration. I think mostly that's the main reason for the muzzies riot, NOT the cartoons!!!

oops . . piss off is a little harsh. You're new here, and as a recent convert from liberalism you still reflexivly blame bush for everything.

Please leave this fine conservative forum.

I support Denmark. I believe in their right to freedom of speech.




Here's you chance, I sent the following e-mail to all in my address book:

Hi there:
May I ask you to support my former home country after the muslim’s boycott of all Danish Goods. We ourselves are using a number of Danish foods. Havarti Cheese we buy in big blocks from Sam’s, a well seasoned and not too strong cheese. The Danish “Lurpak” Butter, you can’t get a better tasting butter, comes slighted salted or un-salted. 2005 won “Best Taste Award.”
Plumrose Danish Ham canned is a class for itself.
Frozen back ribs for the bbq beats anything else. The Danish porks are long and slender with very little fat.
Our slogan at international soccer (fodbold) games is: “We are red, we are white, we are Danish dynamite!”
Please send this around to people in your address book, thank you!
Poul

"BUY DANISH" ASK MY DANISH FRIENDS/ UPDATE
John Zimmerman is right. The Muslim countries have chosen to pressure liberal little Denmark in order to teach the media and governments, which stand by them, a lesson which does not bode well for free speech or satire. Kuwait has joined the Saudi boycott (the Saudi market alone is worth 1.2 billion) and I suspect the rest will follow. So, here is a plea from my Danish friends:

"If you Americans look with this great sympathy on our case, couldn't you then raise a consumer support of DK in the US? The opposite of a boycott. A movement of: "Buy Danish!" Please?

You can easily eat and digest all our famous Danish cheese at your millions of breakfast-tables from Seattle to Atlanta. Then the boycott (which is escalating fast down there now) will be harmless.

Well, we can and should. In fact the idea immediately occurred to the readers of Charles of LGF who was kind enough to post the news about the Saudi boycott on his popular site. They recommended you buy not only the always delicious Danish butter cookies but also:

Danish Havarti cheese

Carlsberg and Tuborg Beers.

Arla owns White Clover Dairy, a Wisconsin company so buy that brand. It comes under White Clover and Holland Farm.

Danish Crown hams ( DAK (sold at Sam clubs)... baby back ribs, because they come from Denmark.

You shop online at The Danish Foodshop and Danish Deli Foods.

You can also buy gorgious Danish porcelain and LEGO for the kids.

UPDATE: First, the speed with which this movement took flight is amazing and encouraging. Thanks, guys, for helping spread in on your blogs. The boycott is gathering steam. Our old friend Libya also withdrew its ambassador. But the Danes are standing firm and the EU (for the moment) is standing by them:

EU trade chief Peter Mandelson met a Saudi minister at a meeting in the Swiss mountain resort of Davos on Sunday and "urged the minister to convey the seriousness of this issue to his government," his spokesman said.

"Any boycott of Danish goods would be seen as a boycott of European goods," said spokesman Peter Power.

An opinion poll showed that 79 percent of Danes think Fogh Rasmussen should not issue an apology and 62 percent say the newspaper should not apologize.

The people that are to blame are the people who performed the act of simultaneously fire bombing the four embassies.
