Denmark ups the level of travel warning for citizens in Indonesia
Denmark has raised the level of travel warning for Indonesia. The cartoons of Prophet Mohammed have caused a storm around the world, with threats against Denmark, its Prime Minister and attacks on its Embassies.
There have been demonstrations in Indonesia in a handful of cities in Java. Bali has been totally peaceful, although there is a Danish Consulate in Jimbaran. The Danish foreign ministry says it has evidence that fundamentalists are actively seeking out Danish people for revenge. Who knows if the threats are hot air, or contain some truth, but the Danish government wants all Danes out of Indonesia.
