Denmark Moves to Ban Burning the Koran or the Bible, as Intelligence Service Alerts About the Heightened Danger of Terrorism
It seems as if a little bit of sanity has finally made its way to the Scandinavian countries, after a season of burning the Koran that has rocked international relations with the Muslim world.

Denmark witnessed 170 demonstrations in recent weeks,
