Denmark begins to fight Jihad


It's taken a while,but the Danes, like the Dutch have finally realized the threat from jihad on their soil and have begun to react appropriately. Al Qaeda's recent threats, which named Copenhagen as a potential target, shocked the entire country.

First, the Danish PM refused to knuckle under to Islamic threats and curtail free speech in this historically liberal and tolerant country, as the country's head `imam' was turned away when he demanded government action against a Danish newspaper:Latest Jyllands-Posten

Next, Danish security has begun rounding up jihadists within the country.

This takes place against a long time background of rapes, street crime and even public honor killings that have originated in a largely unassimilated Muslim community in Denmark, and have stigmitized this normally tolerant nation.
