1. No Dane cared? Wow... You really are attuned with the force Luke. You're power of insight is inspiring. What about the owners of the Danish companies? You think they don't care when their companies suffered significant loss as a result of the boycott?
2. If I remember corectly, there was an incident regarding the burning of the Beatles records following a statement by John Lennon. He said, and I quote: "We're more popular than Jesus Christ." Now the people that reacted to this statement weren't Muslims. Point is, the retaliation against the Danish Newspaper is perfectly understandable no matter what you say. It's human nature. Doesn't make it right though.
3. I'd dispute point 3. Freedom of the Press only extends to government interference. It doesn't protect a newspaper from the ill will of the public, nor does it immunize a newspaper from criticism. If direct pressure on the newspaper doesn't yield a desired apology, then applying pressure elsewhere, such as with a boycott of Danish goods, is acceptable in the pursuit of said apology. The point of a boycott would be to persuade Danish private enterprise to join the protesters in demanding an apology in the interests of returning business to normal. Arabs have no obligation to partake of Danish goods. They crossed the line with the violence, not the boycott.
4. Simple. The middle east already abandoned the ways of the ancients when Islam touched their lives. Did you know that before Islam came along, the arabs had this disgusting habit of burrying alive their daughters. And they were highly consumptive of alcohol and free-sex or whatever it is you call sex outside of marriage. There were slave traders in Arabia etc. Islam changed that, and that my self righteous friend, is our revolution.
5. What about tolerance? Does that word even appear in your dictionary? Just because it's not ilegal to insult someone doesn't mean you should go ahead and do it. If I were to go by your logic, then I reserve every right to call your mother a dirty whore and a ****sucking ****. But as a civilized person I am restricted by teachings of Islam that hurting others both emotionally and physically is a sin.
