7. oops, no more tinned cookies

Alas. The local bakeries will be quietly cheering. As to the cheese, the hard European cheeses don't work well on Persian flat breads; they prefer a soft, white cheese like feta that is somewhat spreadable.

11. Iran new focus of caricature protests

TEHRAN, Iran - Iran cut off trade ties with Denmark and Iranians pelted the Austrian Embassy with Molotov cocktails and stones on Monday in the latest protest over the publication of satirical cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad in European newspapers.

The 200 protesters, chanting “God is Greatest” and “Europe, Europe, shame on you,” smashed all the embassy’s windows with stones and then tried to hurl Molotov cocktails inside. They exploded in flames against metal grills guarding the windows, and the fires were quickly put out by police with fire extinguishers.

12. Instead of having a "danish" in the morning...

maybe they'll rename them "fatwa pastries".

[Sequoia]

13. Sigh, no Carlsburg beer.

I know, I know...they are forbidden the brew.

14. Let the Cartoonists fight these wars!!!

Let's have a battle of the cartoonists. Each country can field an army of cartoonists to attack the enemy. He who creates the most offensive cartoon directed at a particular country, wins.

Garry Trudeau could be a four-star general along with Mort Walker (lots of military experience drawing Beetle Bailey). Other famous cartoonists, Mike Peters, Johnny Hart, etc. could be enlisted to create depictions of Mohammed doing despicable acts. Air Force drones could drop them as leaflets over Syria, Iran, Yemen and the rest of the Evil Axis.

The citizenary would explode and destroy their own countries from within.

Hmmm. Sounds more and more like a Monty Python skit. And I think it might work.

15. So will Iran turn down aid from Denmark when the next earthquake

hits?
