A State Of War
Here’s the way The Ol’ Skipper sees it: (1) The Danish and Norwegian embassies in Syria are sovereign territory belonging to those two countries (according to international law); (2) The Syrian government allowed (and possibly encouraged) its citizens to INVADE, ATTACK & DESTROY Danish and Norwegian territory; (3) Therefore a state of war now exists between Syria and Denmark/Norway. This is a date that will live in infamy. The only thing we have to fear is fear itself .... and moonbattery by slug-brained, demented, goat-fornicating, degenerate, slimey, smelly, camel-turd-sniffing .... illegitimate sons of b*****s.
HAVE AT THEE, INFIDEL AND A POX UPON ALL YOUR KIND!
Embassies Torched As Cartoon Furor Grows
Saturday, February 4, 2006
DAMASCUS (Reuters)
Furious Syrians set fire to the Danish and Norwegian embassies on Saturday as protests over cartoons of the Prophet Mohammad showed no signs of abating despite calls for calm. Oil giant Iran, already embroiled in a dispute with the West over its nuclear programme, said it was reviewing trade ties with countries that have published such caricatures.
Chanting “God is Greatest,” thousands of protesters stormed the Danish embassy, burned the Danish flag and replaced it with a flag reading “No God but Allah, Mohammad is His Prophet.” They set fires which badly damaged the building before being put out. No one was hurt as the embassy was closed at the time.
Demonstrators also set the Norwegian embassy ablaze. It was brought under control by firefighters. Police fired teargas to disperse protesters there and also used water hoses to hold back others from storming the French embassy. Scores of riot police were also deployed to protect the U.S. mission.
Denmark and Norway advised their citizens to leave Syria. Denmark is at the eye of the storm as the cartoons that Muslim demonstrators find offensive, one of the Prophet with a turban resembling a bomb, first appeared in a Danish daily. A small Norwegian Christian newspaper was one of the first newspaper outside Denmark to publish the cartoons. They have now appeared in papers in Bulgaria, Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Switzerland, Hungary, New Zealand, Norway, Poland.
Sweden, which shares its Syrian embassy with Denmark and Chile, was also dragged into the Damascus protests. It summoned the Syrian ambassador in Stockholm in protest. Sweden, Denmark and Norway said the Syrian authorities had not done enough to protect their buildings in the capital. There was no immediate comment from Syrian officials.

“We will not accept less than severing the heads of those responsible,” one preacher at Al Omari mosque in Gaza told worshipers during Friday Prayer, according to Reuters. Other demonstrators called for amputating the hands of the cartoonists who drew the pictures.

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:
It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
- Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
- Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
- Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
