A Heartfelt Overdue Apology

How 'bout them Danes!!

Never ones to waffle in a "to be or not to be" conundrum, the Danes, who made exceptionally heroic efforts during WWII, when they:
"helped smuggle 7,300 of the country's 7,800 Jews into Sweden. Many more helped by not betraying the operation. Only 116 Danish Jews, or 1.5 per cent of the total, died in the Holocaust".
Despite the fact that:
"In many places, providing shelter to Jews was a crime punishable by death."
Where, in spite of the risks,
"a small number of individuals refused to stand by and watch...[and]...had the courage to help by providing hiding places, underground escape routes, false papers, food, clothing, money, and sometimes even weapons."
The Danes, who stood up against the hypocrisy of violent mobs killing their fellow Muslims because a cartoon of Mohammed had suggested there was a violent stream within Islam - have done it again:

Fuck You!

I say we should give them Hans Island, and a helluvalot more. These people know not just how to think, but also how to act.
