Egypt has been spearheading foreign criticism of Denmark over the cartoons. While Egypt "respects freedom of opinion and expression, we also realize the borders which must never be crossed," Egypt's official Middle East News Agency quoted Foreign Minister Ahmed Aboul Gheit as saying Monday after he was informed of the prosecutor's decision by his Danish counterpart.

And in a perfect world, Denmark would reply, Dear Egypt, you're right: Certain boders should never be crossed. Which is why we're sending all Danish moslems to you.

Have a nice day. The Danes.

Your question can be answered with a scene from the movie "Star Wars." Chewbacca and R2D2 are playing "chess," and when R2D2 takes a piece, Chewie gets upset and starts braying. C3P0 says that it's a legal move, but Han Solo interjects that it's not a good idea to upset a wookie. C3P0 replies that nobody's ever concerned with upseting a droid. Han closes the issue with "well, droids don't pull peoples' arms out of their sockets when they lose.

"R2... Let the wookie win!"
