   I didn’t know u were such a subscriber to the conspiracy theory. U completely missed the point of the poster inspite of it being made clear by some of ur readers.
   Congratulations!!!

   While I still don’t see the poster as negative to Danmark, I am glad they took it down, as most people seemed to understand it as a poster against Danmark. So that one is solved. And the reporter will be removed next - with the change in the Human Rights committee.

   They took it down when the campaign day was over - just as planned. Not because of any pressure.

   I tend to analyze the poster signaling that friendly Lego is kept out from the nasty grey puzzle.
   But Lego was not asked, so they have send a letter asking for an explanation. They want to be asked before their easily recognisable bricks are used in any kind of campaign.
   A PR campaign using a world known product without permission? The UN has shown an incredibale lack of professional behavior.
   It’s not the first time and this time it didn’t cost human lives.

   It’s not possible to sue the UN.

   After a recent newspaperad-campaign, where Arla has stated, that 40 years of working in Saudi Arabia and other ME countries, have learned them that justice and tolerance is fundamental values in islam… Well the womens rights groups in denmark has called for a boycot of Arla, because they say Arla is now supporting oppression of women… you cant make everyone happy, now can you?!

   It perhaps might have been easier to see it in that light had the UN not released the statement blasting Denmark for the cartoon riots.

   Given what the UN’s words were, I think a lot of us find no other possible explanation for the poster but as also being a mark *against* Denmark, not for it.

   [...] INTERNATIONAL HATE: The UN’s veiled attack on Denmark: the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights has not only issued a blatently biased report on the whole danish [sic] cartoons incident, It has also used a Red-colored (in allusion to Denmark) piece of LEGO on their new anti-racism poster. Having been caught, whitewash ensues as the UN removes their ‘Denmark is Racist’ flyer …. (Various) [...]
