Denmark: Iraqi Ordered by Court to Divorce one of his Wives Considering Move to Britain....
Naturally.....
COPENHAGEN (AFP) - An Iraqi refugee ordered by Denmark to divorce one of his two wives if he wants to stay in the Scandinavian country is willing to move to Britain or even back to Iraq to avoid splitting his family, media reported Saturday.
The man, who along with his two wives and three children was granted asylum in Denmark last year after he served as an interpreter for the Danish battalion in Iraq, received an order from the Justice Ministry at the end of April to choose between his wives by May 26.
Islam allows men to take up to four wives, but bigamy is illegal in Denmark.
The man, whose name has not been revealed, initially indicated through his lawyer that he was upset by the ruling but would not take the case to court.

That is just sad. He even considers the UK before Iraq.
