I mean what on earth are Palestinians doing burning the Danish flag?!

With death threats, recalls of ambassadors, boycotts of Danish firms (resulting in 100 layoffs) sometimes I really wonder why I bother trying to defend Islam all the time.

It's a bloody cartoon and if they don't 'get' the sanctity of freedom of expression then frankly they will never 'get' the West and thus will never integrate successfully.

I'm just annoyed that all reference to this has vanished from the BBC front page not long after it went up. Obviously not politically-correct reading.

Still, at least the UK government just got a kicking over the religious hatred law. Pretty funny too - the PM didn't bother voting in the second round and they lost by one vote Looks like our freedom of expression is a bit safer than it was yesterday. And once again, thank God for the House of Lords.
