The side effect of this Sunday demonstration and the row over the Danish cartoons are rather amusing. The jokes and JPEGS and WMV.files I have been receiving, they are getting more and more hilarious. Most of them I wouldn’t be able to publish here, out of fear (well, that’s a pretty sad statement, isn’t it?) of having the Dutch enter the affair as well. All this boycotting of Danish dairy products can only come to the Dutch advantage; wouldn’t want to mess with that. But the stuff that has been going around is very very good.
It seems, according to a blogger, that an Egyptian paper already republished those infamous cartoons back in September of last year, and nobody, and I repeat NOBODY, seem to have an issue with it then. Doesn’t that tell you enough?
Oh well, a storm in a glass of water, as the Dutch say. And I’m immersed into Sunni fundamentalism for a story.
