Iran follows U.S. lead, re-names Danish pastries

BWA HA ha! Freedom fries, anyone?


By ALI AKBAR DAREINI, Associated Press Writer

TEHRAN, Iran - Iranians love Danish pastries, but when they look for the flaky dessert at the bakery they now have to ask for "Roses of the Prophet Muhammad."

Bakeries across the capital were covering up their ads for Danish pastries Thursday after the confectioners' union ordered the name change in retaliation for caricatures of the Muslim prophet published in a Danish newspaper.

It's Childish and immature, no matter who does it. If we equated what was right and wrong by what Americans do then the world would be quite messed up wouldn't it.

Always have always will. A nation looks out for it's own intrest first before anything else.

Very true I must say.

After having browsed through a French bookstore I really dont care what people say about France.

Frankly the world is pretty much the same level of messed up it has always been, but that would certainly change if your government continues its suicidal quest for nuclear weapons.
