Denmark charges four with misunderstanding Islam, plotting jihad mass murder over Muhammad cartoons
Motoon Rage will never die -- it is much more likely that the West will outlaw any criticism or negative portrayal of Islam, including truthful speech about the jihad doctrine and Islamic supremacism, before jihadis stop wanting to kill large numbers of Infidels over...cartoons.

"Denmark charges 4 suspects in terror plot against Prophet Muhammad cartoons," from the Associated Press, March 2 (thanks to Pamela Geller):

COPENHAGEN, Denmark — Danish prosecutors on Friday charged four people with terrorism for allegedly planning a shooting attack on a newspaper that had printed cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad.
AP continues its universal practice of assuming that we are all Muslims now and all recognize Muhammad as a prophet.

The four men — Swedes living in Denmark — wanted “to seriously frighten the population” and destabilize Denmark by planning a shooting spree inside the Copenhagen offices of the Jyllands-Posten newspaper, Svend Ulrik Larsen, Denmark’s top prosecutor, said.
Now why would "Swedes living in Denmark" want to do such a thing? Only until farther down in the story do we learn that they were "militant Islamists," which makes it highly doubtful that they consider themselves "Swedes" at all.

The paper published 12 cartoons of the prophet in 2005, sparking riots in Muslim countries and calls for revenge against the Danish publishers and cartoonists.
Larsen said the group traveled to Copenhagen with arms and ammunition, aiming to kill “a larger number of people.”...

The Danish Security and Intelligence Service described some of the suspects as “militant Islamists with relations to international terror networks.”

“This is a very serious case. We believe they wanted to attack the (Copenhagen) newsroom of the Jyllands-Posten daily, possibly because of the Muhammad cartoons,” Gyrithe Ulrich, the prosecutor who handles the case, told The Associated Press....

The Jyllands-Posten had asked Danish cartoonists to draw the prophet as a challenge to self-censorship. Islamic law generally opposes any depiction of Prophet Muhammad, even favorable ones, for fear it could lead to idolatry....

The men also were charged with possession of illegal weapons. Police said they found a submachine gun, a handgun and ammunition in raids in Copenhagen....

Under a court order, none of the suspects can be named.

Gee, why is that, fellas?
