The states of Norway and Denmark should not issue an apology to the muslims offended by these drawings. It was not an official order from the governments of these countries to have these cartoons printed, the ones who printed these were independent newspapers, who do not represent the political beliefs of the people of Norway and Denmark. The Danish newspaper, Jyllandsposten, is an extremist right newspaper, and the Norwegian newspaper, Magazinet, is an extremist Christian newspaper.
If any Palestinians, who seems to be most aggravated by these cartoons, should attack Norway, a staunch supporter for a free Palestine and who provides 1% of the the national budget of the occupied Palestine, we will just leave them to be rolled over by Israel, and they can just forget about having a free Palestinian state.
