Have to disagree with you, SallyVee. This is not "taqiya", which is "precautionary dissimulation." There's no dissimulation here, just a blunt-force attempt to impose Islamist censorship on the media. And I do agree that it's no longer just a "kerfuffle." There are Palestinian terror groups, such as Al-Aqsa "martyrs" brigade, threatening to kill Danes and others if there's no apology by the Danish government.
If this continues, it could build into a watershed for Europe and for us. Just how much censorship of the news, op-eds and editorial cartoons will we stand for? This is an outrage against freedom, and it shouldn't be tolerated in any degree or form.
