;-) A culture thing, that: They are now accepted as part of society, so we treat them equally to the people from Århus, Copenhagen, West-Jutland, Sout-Jutland, Bornholm and Mols (a tiny area 30 km from Århus). If we did not care for them, we would not poke fun at them occasionally. So far, I think the "integration" has really improved a lot because this affair has clearly shown that the Danish muslims are pretty much like everyone else here. The ethnic kiosks still sell Jyllands Posten, the Danish still buy groceries in ethnic shops e.t.c. Like Normal. No riots, looting and threats from hooded cowards and bullies. What we instead have learned are that the Imams - some of which have been given asylum - are blatantly lying and falsifying evidence in order to slander the country that pay their social security when the very first opportunity arises. Maybe those people should not be here in the first place. We have also learned that there is no point in getting involved in dialogue, export grants (i.e. bribes) and foreign aid money (more bribes) with dictatorships and defunct states. The effort should be directed elsewhere, where it is actually any use. Finally we can take comfort in knowing that the "lunatic segment" in the population is clearly less than 1500 out of 5,000,000 people - although the loonies do get 80% of the media coverage (like f.ex. the 300 "autonomen" that just *had* to be the only violent segment in a media-hyped "confrontational" demo with 30(!) neo-nazis, 200 muslims and about half the Danish police force present in riot gear - Great Plan Einstein; ). The TeeVee news should be relabeled "Fools Hour" - their mantra seems to be that "if you want the opinion of any large group, go seek out the village idiot and ask him". The conclusion is that the *real* threat to democracy does *not* come from the lunatic segment but from connected people with nice suits and vested interests such as the Danish Industri Association that are clearly willing to take in a used Sharia as part of a trade. They worked for Hitler too and has clearly learned nothing!! PS: If one was trying to detect fanatics of any creed, a certain indicator would be that they have absolutely no sense of humour - they suffer from a yet-to-be-described variant of autism I.M.O.
