This is due to lopsided and revisionist state controlled media. You lefties love this type of thing. We shouldn't modify our behaviour to appease massive hatred, regardless of how diffiucult it may be to beat it down.mrsx said:I am - very seriously - on the side of my country and the values I believe it stands for. I agree with you about the war with theocratic islamism. The problem is that what started out as a civil war within the Arab world - with most Arabs looking for Western help in modernizing their societies and economies - has become a holy war against the infidel invader in which the islamists have gone from being seen as nut cases to being seen as great heroes in Arab history.
It hasn't helped to have Republican superstars like Gen. Jerry Boykin, Pat Robertson, Jerry Falwell and Junior Graham denouncing the Prophet Mohammad, peace be upon him, as a child molester and terrorist or claiming that Muslims do not worship the same God as Christians or Jews. I can see why you want to put these crazies back in the attic at this time, but the GOP leadership was sure loving them back when they thought they were bringing in the voters.
Nothing any televangist says justifies jihad against us. He can say whatever he wants. It's called free speech. Muslims need to learn about free speech the hard way it appears.
