Re: Violence in the wake of the cartoon controvers (none / 1)
I posted this in the European Brunch thread as well, but I thought I'd put it here to.

Al-Jazeera is now reporting a fire in the Danish consulate in Beirut.  They have video of smoke rising from the building.  They are definitely saying consulate, not embassy, I'm not sure if Denmark has both there.

All the bystanders Al-Jazeera is interviewing at the scene, including a Muslim cleric, are calling for calm and saying that it is against Islam to attack and burn, that the Prophet Muhammed would not approve of this violence.
