Boycott the Boycott

Like my post that was lost said, there is a call to buy Danish products.

I started the post that Blogger lost for me by calling you all out to buy those Danish Butter Cookies that are a Christmas favorite.

But that was a small part of what I was getting at.

Anyway, Fu2rman favorite Atlas Shrugs has a great campaign I am behind.

Buy Danish goods!

Start here.

And then, buy some of these great products.

Atlas started her post with is an article about The Queen of Denmark, Queen Margrethe II.

This is a woman we should listen to.


She said: "We are being challenged by Islam these years - globally as well as locally. It is a challenge we have to take seriously. We have let this issue float about for too long because we are tolerant and lazy.

"We have to show our opposition to Islam and we have to, at times, run the risk of having unflattering labels placed on us because there are some things for which we should display no tolerance."

"And when we are tolerant, we must know whether it is because of convenience or conviction."

She said she understood how disaffected young Muslims might find refuge in religion. This tendency should be fought by encouraging Muslims to learn Danish so they could integrate better, she said.

"We should not be content with living next to each other. We should rather live together."

In your experience, do Muslims simply want to live next to you, or together with you?

Do they want to learn from you, and teach you?

Or do they want to change you?

Is Denmark the model, or the exception?

Is Islam the Religion of Peace, or the Religion of 'You are an Infidel, convert, or die!'?

You tell me...

I lover Danish cookies, hard to give up ;)

Further I don't agree with what people are saying in Middle east.

You can't beat someone to get respect. You give respect to get some in return.

Prophet Mohammad was a merchant by profession and he traveled to so called infidel lands for trade relations. So I am not convinced on bycott issue and I still love Danish cookies.
