I would be glad if you could point out the 'half truths'.

I really don't see that. Apologising would be an admission of wrong doing. The culture of the west allows for critique or satirising almost any subject on earth. The muslim community here should understand that and tolerate it even if they don't like it. Plus I really feel the Muslim nutters would capitalise on any 'back down' by pushing the limits of what they can do to us even further.

I find it bizarre that anyone would put the purported awarding of a "moral victory" ahead of peoples lives, truly bizarre.

Again I don't recall Denmark involved in hostilities against Afghanistan or Iraq. The only lives at risk are put at risk by the activities of the nutter element.
