Danish Queen Opposes Islam...Doesn’t She?
By the effervescent and ever-present Sally Bishai
The queen of Denmark recently said that she wants her country to “Show our opposition to Islam.”
Apparently, this is just another show of the recently emerging movement to squash Islam in free lands.
Could that be because, as Mohamed Habib—first deputy of the Muslim Brotherhood's “supreme guide”—said, "Islamic Rule" means "that non-Muslims can have no authority over Muslims” ?
Perhaps. I couldn’t say, however, seeing how I’m not a member of the Brotherhood.
Author J. Grant Swank, Jr. goes on to recount another quote from Denmark’s queen: "When we are tolerant, we must know whether it is because of convenience or conviction."
Fine.
But then what was she speaking of when she said that "We should not be content with living next to each other...we should rather live together” ?
Or when she said that she didn’t want Muslims in her country to rely on translators, but to learn her language?
Let’s recap for a second, here.. First, she’s anti-Islam.
Then, she wants them all to hold hands and live together.
Hmm.
In a related matter (and this is more about the forced diplomacy that political figures have to display, rather than a commentary on the Queen, or even Bush, who’s going to pop up here in a second), the wife of Bush allegedly added the Qur’an to the presidential library recently, when she knew that some Muslims were coming to call on the First Family.
Interestingly enough, Bush himself called Islam a “Noble Faith,” which goes back to the diplomacy thing, since, didn’t he recently (ok, a few years ago) dub an entire strip of the world—one whose only common factor was Islam—the “Axis of Evil” ?
At any rate, I think my point here was to
1- make sure you know what your opinion is before taking a stance in the international news, and
2- research all of the angles involved before actually taking a stance and putting it out there!

Unless, that is, North Korea is Islamic.
