The Danish are funny. They just don't realize when they're being funny. 
OK, OK ... j/k. Don't want to start any Danes firing on Americans now.

Zlatan you asked why bringing Turkey into the Eu would cause more trouble than its worth. Firstly I can't see a single benefit from having them in, I mean other than perhaps having cheaper shish kebabs, what tangible benefits would there be to the average EU citizen?
Problems would be the fact that hundreds of Turks could come straight over here and settle down! Then there's the whole Islam vs the West thing going on, it seems pretty obvious to me that the two worlds cannot co-exist as one, so why try to make that happen. there's only going to be more unrest and violence if we invite such a country any closer.

Ahahaaha.
I don't get that, isn't it? Are there many other European nations that aren't christian?
Well, economy is growing, but their GDP per capita is very low, and there are many poor people there, who could seek a better life in countries with better welfare systems. I'm not qualified to determine if the effect will be positive or negative, but you have to look at both sides, and in EU (and other) terms Turkey is not an economic superpower.

Once its human rights and cyprus is sorted out, the EU have no more excuses to deny them entry.
I think it'll take just over 10 years or so for Turkey to join.
ps Turkey has jost got a 6 game stadium ban for the incident with Switzerland/
A bit harsh and I think politcally motivated by that idiot Sepp Blatter.

personally, i think something like this has been coming for a long time.....and living in the uk, where there are apparently 2 million muslims (though i honestly cant believe it is as little as that), i can only see things getting worse.
I personally have no time whatsoever for religious fundamentalists of any type, and find it very hard to understand how on earth so many millions can lead their lives being governed by, well, hearsay and unproven beliefs.
Organised religion is really about power, and in the way that the christian church held power 400 years ago etc so the islamic clerics are holding power now....
Why cant people leave their beliefs at the door of their place of worship and realise that in public life (locally or globally) they have no right to dictate to the masses....unless religion can be proven to have any basis for fact it should not be playing such a major and important part on the world stage...
I now await a bolt of lightning from above to silence my satanic and heathen opinions.......

on another point, as a british citizen it was heartwarming to see so many of my fellow 'citizens' protesting so vehemently over cartoons-pity none of the same people came out in protest when terrorist lowlifes were sawing off the heads of british and other countries citizens...
I believe bush and blair should be brought to book over illegal actions in Iraq, but i still believe millions of people should be asking themselves if their beliefs are really what should be driving them in this day and age...
