Palestinian Hamas supporters march during a demonstration against the re-publication of drawings of the Prophet Muhammad in Danish newspapers, in Jebaliya, northern Gaza Strip, Friday, Feb. 15, 2008. (Hamas are a fascist organisation responsible for the deaths of many Palestinians and Israelis)

Found in Denmark:

“We are not the ones to apologise,” said Villy Soevndal, the leader of Denmark’s Socialist People’s Party.

“If anyone needs to apologise for freedom of speech, human rights [lack of], imprisonments, executions and lack of democracy, it is the Iranians.”

    Rock on, Mr. Soevndal.  Hopefully he’ll inspire some copycat spine-age.

    I often consider returning to Denmark. The politics may be a little odd, but they lack the reality distortion field peculiar to the British and North American left.

    Taxonomic classification, Villy Soevndal:

    Phylum chordata.

    Before you all get carried away with your danebrog waving, here’s a youtube that nicely sums up the state of contemporary Denmark…

    I’m just happy that a Socialist,somewhere,anywhere on earth,has the spine to stand up to the religious fanatics.
