I wish to apologise, as a Canadian, for Louise Arbour. She's an idiot. A disaster as a supreme court justice, we foisted her on the world, it seems. It appears to me she's a little unclear on her job, and what the organisation she works for is all about. With embassies going up in flames, countries being held responsible for cartoons, boycotts organised, and dire vengeance threatened against people and nations who had nothing to do with it, I find her reponse laughable. Aren't three of FDR's 'four freedoms' (foundation concept of the UN, Louise) under attack -- freedom of speech, freedom of (or from) religion, and freedom from fear? FDR felt that when the freedoms were under attack anywhere in the world, we are all under attack.

I'm Danish too, right now. I'll do my bit to make up for the Muslim boycott. Will make sure I buy blue cheese and pickled herring tomorrow. Can I have a passport?

In response to a previous comment [I suggest you hit your local library and take out a book about Europe in the dark Ages and Islam! Little do you know, it was Islam that contributed to your so called "western civilization" when you were in the dark.
Islam and actual practicing muslims are more civilized than the west. Islam is all about tolerance, respect and cleanliness. If any part of the world is uncivilized, it is the west. Just look at your part of the World- the world of adultry, prostitution, drugs, and violence. You call that civilization? Sounds more like a zoo to me. Before you point your dirty finger at muslims and Islam as a whole I suggest you take a good look around your surroundings, and get out of your little box and seek what is OUT, I am sure your ignorance will be caught by a surprise], I suggest that you read a newspaper carefully. Islam was, but Islam is. In the past thousand years, since Islam's salad days, you've succeeded in translating as many books written in foreign languages into Arabic as Spain alone does into Spanish every year. Exclusive of oil, the entire Arab bloc combined has the GNP of Finland -- that's right: Nokia kicks your ass. In any case, I'm sure that Islam knows all about adultery and prostitution (ask a Saudi prince). Hash and opium are imported into the god-forsaken West from the Islamic world, not the other way around. On violence, of course, you've got me. No violence in the dar-al-Islam. We had a murder in my little part of the dar-al-harb once . . . thirteen years ago. I think there was another before that . . . in 1881. And yes, you contributed to Western Civilisation -- Algebra and kabobs I believe.
