The Fjordman details how the Islamic concept of "blood money" persists among Muslim immigrants to Denmark:
Two men have been killed in street shootings in a row involving a group of second generation immigrants in Copenhagen. An injured gang leader was subsequently freed by a group of masked men from the State Hospital, where he was under police surveillance. Integration Minister Hvilshøj rejected a proposal from Imam Abu Laban that blood money be paid to the family of a man who was killed. Since the shooting of a 24 year old and the wounding of his older brother, there has been much speculation about when revenge would be taken. But according to the Imam, the thirst for revenge could be cooled if 200,000 kroner were paid either by the family of the doorman who fired the shots or by the Islamic community. He said the practice of paying blood money to the family of a deceased person was normal in Muslim societies. Hvilshøj said such action could harm the entire integration process in Denmark. With the Islamic religious community as mediator, the family of the doorman, who fired the killing shot and who is now in prison, is being pressured to move from Copenhagen by the family of the dead man. But the agreement has been met with sharp criticism by experts in criminal law who say it is unlawful coercion and in contravention of the Danish sense of democracy. Only the courts of law can resolve murder cases in Denmark. Meanwhile there is growing fear amongst politicians that the immigrant environment in the Nørrebro area in Copenhagen, which has been nofficially declared an "Islamic state" by some of its residents, is developing into a parallel society where ancient traditions threaten Danish law.200,000 Danish kroner is approximately the value of 100 camels. Some baffled commentators at first thought it was said tongue-in-cheek when Imam Abu Laban wanted the equivalent of 100 camels to be paid for a man's life. That's probably not the case. Ahmad Abu Laban is involved in an international group of Muslims who are known for supporting the anti-Western Islamist struggle of the school of global Jihad. He also tried to block the re-election of the right-wing government in Denmark in the previous election...

This is what happens when 7th century Arabian desert cavemen are transposed into modern Europe. This time it's Denmark's bad luck/ I'm sure the concept of blood money existed in 7th century Scandinavia. But Scandinavia has moved on 14 centuries from that era.
I have a better idea. Instead of paying blood money, how about just shoot the other gang members? Eye for an eye is mandated in islamic theology, no?

Sounds to me like a "parallel society" is already well established, up and running. Muslims live in parallel societies in every country on earth. They cannot, will not assimilate because assimilation would pollute their vile culture. Islam mandates that muslims separate themselves from non-muslims. Don't the Danes know that they are filthy, not worthy of muslim friendship but obligated to tolerate endless muslim crime and muslim disruption of their own society?
Muslims must maintain control of their females or Islam will disintegrate, and that's the first thing they would lose if they assimilated. Why is that so hard for people to understand?
You can find comment on this same case at Moron Abroad, as well as other articles dealing with this phenomenon.
Oh wow i really feel bad for the danes. The ball is rolling. These people have already started a movement to gain controll politically within areas of Denmark. pretty soon this will lead to a call for soverenty and the Danes will either have to fight or give up parts of thier country. This is happening much more quickly than i had figured it would. Oh well looks like the first country to fall to dhimmi status will be Denmark. Oh well the Danes will miss thier gay marrage and legalized prostitution. Who will have time to fight when all the Danish men are exploring thier female side, and legal mary jane. Goodbye Denmark first down to the liberal adgenda and tolerence modle.
