Irving exactly knew what was going to happen to him when went to Austria. He's seeking for attention. Nonetheless Freedom of speech is a rare commodity that needs to be protected regardless of a country's history.

For those wanting an apology for publishing the caricatures, here it is

I'd say that's the general sentiment from the western world, even though the vast majority that really feel that way wouldn't openly say it...

 

[yoyo913]

consider this racist but its just an opinion on some of the arabs i know

I live in a country that has many arabs, i have been friends with some and interact with them daily

MOST (not all)are stupid, ignorant and think in an immature way. COME ONE YOU HAVE TO AGREE, look at this thread it shows how some of them act, you have to agree that acting this way is STUPID

/i am an idiot for posting that
i hope you enjoyed it

*EDIT

they treat their women like sh!t, they love starting wars and arguing because they are poor and have nothing better to do

As compared to the vast majority of enlightened Americans and mature western societies?

Do I really need to pull out poll results carried out in the US?

Listen, as regards the late caricatures, everyone was upset and furious. Its the way of expression of this feeling that was the case.

If you find this feeling 'stupid' and 'immature' then this could be down to many other reasons off ur head, like not fully understanding the background of the subject or its significance to other people.

And when you put other 'facts' in question, like the FACT that denying the Holocaust, or even merely suspecting the number of its victims, is PUNISHABLE by up to 10 years in JAIL. How do you like that fact? Is it fair to say that this EXTREMELY BIZZARE punishment is INCREDIBELY immature, ignorant and stupid too?

We're not talking here about 'angry', 'upset' people. We're talking about people who are SO ANGRY and SO UPSET about a statement you could utter, that they put a LAW that cud put you in jail to up to 10 years.... and if you BACK OFF and change your mind, you get 3 years. And that's with all the international pressure.

Your just jealous they didn't attack Canada instead.

Although the world would be a much better place if people started boycotting Canadian music (Celine Dion, Alanis Morissette, Nelly Furtado, Avril Lavigne) and the toxic waste Canucks like to call food (Poutine, scrunchins) :-puke:

as if vegemite is yummy or something

EDIT: As far as Celine Dion, Alanis, etc go... yeah, we probably owe the world an apology for those

Shut up and give us Dale Begg-Smith back.

At least with vegemite you won't have a stroke halfway through the meal

Vegemite is actually remarkably healthy, its chock full of vitamins, its just a shame it tastes like crude oil. Last time I had some it took me a whole week to get the taste out of my mouth.
Most of us keep a jar of the stuff lying around for when English and Canadian backpackers and other tourists come around, we tell them its chocolate.

Did you see him waving the Australian flag at the closing ceremony, what did you think aboot that, eh?

It's kind of weird that he decided to leave Canada for Australia of all places, how many people out there know that we actually have snow.

 

[RobbieD_PL]

what i dont get is that fact that if Austria puts him into prison, what will that achieve? If he surivives to be 69 (or what ever his age will be) he could still continue to preach his ideology, he would still have his mouth or his hand to do so. Also, I'm quite confused at the double standard, by on the one hand, protecting the European Jewry from denials of the Holocaust & on the other inflamming the Arab Middle East... whatsup wit dat?

He left because he couldn't commit to the training schedule and wanted to work with the coach that was living in Aus. It is weird though because I've never heard of/known anyone that moved to Australia or vice-versa.

Also, did you know that he's a millionare? He started some software company when he was a teen and is filthy rich now.

I was wondering how an aussie won the moguels in the olympics, it shocked me to him there.
