Abu Ghraib! UAE! Abu Ghraib, UAE! Desecrating our Ports! Buy American! USA, USA. No foreigners need apply! There's no such thing as an illegal alien! No Undocumented Unamericans!
The cognitive dissonance must hurt their heads.

A bit of hypocrisy in Germany
In Germany if appears you get 2 weeks without trial for goose stepping.
As one of the commentators below quoted below said, it seems some satire is punished in Europe more than others.
I think this should make someone in Germany a bit uncomfortable, WWII has been over for 60 years, I think it's time we all got past this.

The first jailed England fan will have a VERY good case in the European Courts.
A goose-step, though perhaps offensive to some people, is not in itself an incitement to violence or hatred.
I think the Germans are on very thin ice with this one.

It is interesting that this story appears now in light of the raging controversy over the cartoons of Prophet Muhammad vs the rights of free speech.
Why is satire at the expense of one community acceptable, but not against another?
ShouldnÂ’t all societies accept that free speech is not an inalienable right to humiliate or degrade each other?

The tree of liberty, from time to time, must be replenished with the blood of patriots
Saw this via LGF :
Reminds me of a couple of quotes:
Said by Ahmed Akkari, a Muslim theologian from Copenhagen:
.......the level of anger was “very high” in the Muslim community across
Europe and the wider world.
“It is more likely [than not] that any minute we
will hear of violence unless the police can control the situation.”
Reminds me of a couple of quotes:
"Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"- Patrick Henry
(March 23, 1775)
"The tree of liberty, from time to time, must be replenished with the blood of patriots."- President Thomas Jefferson
