Danish food is nothing to brag about, but its the best in Scandinavia and much better than kraut food.

I like Danes and Denmark. They fought the Naziis in WW2. Gort exhibits facist tendencies in his arguments. Ignore him.

He wasn't joking, although I would love to see evidence of my facism. Sucre just let the guy rant. He simply reinforces for the rest of us how limited an intellectual capacity he really has when he does this. It makes no difference to me what he thinks of me so his insults really never hit home. I just use them to egg him on further because it is so easy to do so.

Nevermind that. I would never take any kinds of criticism about Denmark personally anyway, since I unlike most americans believe in real freedom of speech. We can both agree that Gort is a narrowsighted patronizing putz who constantly comes with indirect personal attacks and insults for no reason. The funny thing about Gort however is that he actually writes for hours and hours in this forum without getting any single point across. The guy is somehow priceless in his own bizarre way.

If you believe in freedom of thoughts and are not too coward about your own thoughts, why don't you translate for this forum what your AKA means ...

"Marcipanbrød, nej tak! Folkemord, yes sir!"

Disgusting !

I do not believe I criticized Denmark, a little touchy are we? All I said was there were no Danish style restaurants in my area while I could find a lot of German, Dutch, Italian, Spanish, French, Greek and even an English style restaurant.

You are a coward since you dont come with any criticism of the american society, instead you are kissing their fat asses. Now thats disgusting!

My signature is hard to translate directly, you have to watch danish TV-comic in order to get the point. Its what the comic figure in my avatar "Dolph" often says and it means something like: Marcinpanbrød (a kinda candy cookie) No thanks! Folkemord (massive killing of innocent people) Yes sir! I guess the last part is something that germans can relate to. Ho Ho Ho! www.dr.dk/dolph

PM slams Europe's 'anti-Americans'

Press Association
Thursday September 14, 2006 1:08 AM


Tony Blair has launched a scathing attack on "mad" anti-Americanism among European politicians.

The Prime Minister said the reality was that none of the world's pressing problems could be "resolved or even contemplated" without the US.

Writing in a pamphlet published by think-tank the Foreign Policy Centre, Mr Blair also called for a "complete renaissance" of strategy in the War on Terror.

In the document, entitled Global Alliance for Global Values, the Prime Minister said: "The strain of, frankly, anti-American feeling in parts of European politics is madness when set against the long-term interests of the world we believe in.

"The danger with America today is not that they are too much involved. The danger is if they decide to pull up the drawbridge and disengage.

"We need them involved. We want them engaged. The reality is that none of the problems that press in on us can be resolved or even contemplated without them."

Mr Blair also set out his vision for a new consensus between moderates from all religions.

He said the battle against extremism could not be won in a "conventional" way, and the focus of policy had to change.

"We must commit ourselves to a complete renaissance of our strategy to defeat those that threaten us.

"We need to construct an alliance of moderation that paints a future in which Muslim, Jew and Christian, Arab and Western, wealthy and developing nations can make progress in peace and harmony with each other."

So, Blair talks about how it is maddness to hate America and you blame Bush. Maddess implies irrationality.

Are you capable of considering that perhaps blaming the people who are doing the hating might make more sense than blaming the people who are the targets of the hatred?

Maddness means irrationality but people may hate for very rational reasons ...

And, obviously, it goes both ways. People don't go angry without a reason ... They don't even go mad without a reason ...

LOL! (Just had to comment this) You obviously haven't been to Germany, because everybody who has knows that especially those 4 things really sucks ass in that country. Thats why there are so few european tourists visiting that God forsaken place, unless they have to in order to get somewhere else.

You could come to Canada for good beer, good women, and the best skiing in the world. Architecture and language, uhhh, no.

Re: Anti-Americanism 'feels like racism'

I voted "US Superiority"

Funny how a lot of foreigners want to blame the US for problems but then they want our money or help when the crap hits the fan.
