This easily dissolves down to a black/white conflict...
And trust me, like everything else, this isn't black/white... not at all.
We are in the middle of a culture clash, where logic is of no use at all, because the case is fair and square for either side.
- The newspaper (jyllandsposten) did unrightly and unneccesary provoke a lot of muslims with those drawings. I can't imagine why they would do such a thing. It seems like a complete lack of respect.
- The reaction of some of the islamic countries is just as bad, with buycut of danish companies that had nothing to do with this case whatsoever... It's too freaking easy just to label this problem "denmark".
What we need here is mutual understanding, and mutual understanding is what we're gonna get in the end.
I think this conflict has the potential to do some good to the world, because we need to commucate to solve it. And i really hope both parts will.
A greyscale with just one color? Heaven must surely be a dull place.
This calls for an extraordinary mix of psychology and extreme violence!
