QUOTE OF THE DAY
=========================

"They say we'll change or threaten their culture, but if your
culture is strong what do you have to fear from Islam? The
fact is the Danes have little national culture left. They
adopt Halloween. They adopt Thanksgiving. They adopt
Valentine's Day. They eat burgers. And they see our more
genuine culture and worry."

- FATMA OEKTEM, a Turkish immigrant in Denmark.
