How dare they!! Well, their faces are blurred in the amateur video footages. You know, in case of a beheading-fatwa...
Danish TV shows cartoons mocking Prophet Mohammad (hattip: Hotair):
The images, filmed by artist Martin Rosengaard Knudsen who posed as a member of the party for several months to document attitudes among young members, show a number of young people drinking, singing and drawing cartoons ridiculing the Prophet Mohammad.This "Danish People's Party"-party seems to me a bit infantile, but completely innocent. It´s not like they´re issuing death threats nor chopping off heads or setting stuff on fire.
The faces of the young people were blurred in most of the footage. One cartoon appeared to depict the Prophet Mohammad as a camel, urinating and drinking beer. The competition took place in early August, according to Danish media.
Someone will stir up hatred and try to take advantage of this...
Update: The videos were taken down (not by YT), but have now been replaced.
Update: Youtube has pulled the videos. Follow the Zombie-link below to watch them.
Hotair has more about this that you should read.
Update: Here we go. Keep in mind that the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood opines that "terrorism is not a curse when given its true meaning" (plus: Bin Laden, Al-Zawahiri and Al-Zarqawi are Not Terrorists). Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood denounces what it calls 'new Danish insults' to Islam (hattip: LGF-reader Killgore Trout):
Egypt's largest Islamic group, the Muslim Brotherhood, on Saturday denounced what it called "new Danish insults" to Islam and urged the world to boycott countries that allow offenses to all religions."...through peaceful means...". That would be civilized and not barbaric.
The Brotherhood's condemnation came a day after word spread about a Web video showing young members of a populist Danish political party mocking Islam's Prophet Muhammad.
(...)
Kenneth Christens, chairman of the Danish People's Party Youth — known for its anti-immigration stance — refused to apologize Friday for the actions of its members, but acknowledged they were problematic.
"It is bad style because it overshadows our political line," Kristensen said. But he added that he believed it was "OK to poke fun at Muhammad, Jesus or Bill Clinton."
(...)
The Brotherhood, which enjoys wide popularity in Egypt and across the Arab World, urged Muslims on Saturday to boycott products from Denmark and any other country that would allow such an "insult."
It also called on Muslims to "express denouncement through peaceful means, by demonstrations and protests."
Update: Zombie has a lot of stuff related to the imam-fabricated Cartoon Controversy.
Update: The hypocrites over at the Organization of the Islamic Conference condemn the cartoons and the kids at the camp. Allahpundit puts it like this:
The Organization of the Islamic Conference, which has 57 member nations, issued a statement today condemning the kids for drawing the images, because apparently a major Islamic international body has nothing better to do than worry about what moronic Scandinavian teens do in their spare time at camp for cheap thrills.Bwaaahahaha...
Go over there and read about the "values of tolerance" as well. He also says two of the kids have gone into hiding. Were they threatened with fatwas, like the ones we have seen before because of the dreaded cartoons?
Charles Johnson points out that "the latest Danish cartoon jihad was apparently deliberately started by a left wing “artists’ group” that infiltrated the Danish People’s Party".
An all-too-relevant cartoon (via Cox & Forkum):
