When we boycott al the companies, we show our anger against them all.
1.Those who published the cartoons
2.Those who saw them and didnt do anything about them
3.Those who saw them and enjoyed them
It might not make much sense to you perhaps but boycotting all products will frighten them. (1,2,3) hence the repulsive act will never be done again
I can understand your problem with groups 1 and 3. Here's the thing:
Everyone I know thought the cartoons were in bad taste, but they defended the newspaper's right to publish them. The chances are good that many of the boards of directors of the Danish companies you mention would feel the same way, as well as most Western companies in general. That's just the way people think in the West. This attitude amounts to 'doing nothing about them'. Therefore, you should actually be boycotting all Western companies full stop, no?

Islam has its own way of thinking. It does not follow the wstern method. When these companies/ thier directors/ the people, defended the abusers, they too became part of them.

Yes, I accept that, but my question was this: following the logic you've just explained, shouldn't you actually be boycotting all Western companies, since they most likely agree that the newspaper had the right to publish the cartoons?

I would just like to clerify this one thing. What I post is my opinion and may not be Islamic
About boycotting all the western companies one should do so if they supported the papers. However thier support was far lessr than the danish support.
I am sorry I can not say more on boycotting the west coz I dont live there and may not be able to feel how the muslims live there.
