Don't Offend Islam Anyone

I've about had it with the "anything for a good riot" thugs of Islam who are offended because their beloved false prophet was drawn in an unfavorable light. Instead of proving the depiction wrong by having a peaceful discussion, they take to the world wide stage and burn down a Kentucky Fried Chicken.

Even more troubling is the sudden efforts by people who should know better to bow down to the pressure of these terrorists. Yes, you threaten to kill and burn stuff in front of the camera you are a terrorist in my book.

Islam is not and should not be protected from being offend. Muslims have no claim to decide what does or does not get published. Not any more then any other person or group. Yet, I see all the stories about the "shocking cartoon" and very few actually show it. That tells me that a publisher is more concerned about Islam then the reader.

I can't make this any clearer, just because your offended does not give you editorial rights in the western media. Shame on all those who have just handed it over.

A call by a member of the European Parliament has been made for the creation of a special committee to examine religious education and textbooks in schools to insure that the content does not offend Islam.

Hans-Gert Pttering from Germany, who heads the largest group of MEPs, said that textbooks should be reviewed for intolerant depictions of Islam and other faiths by experts overseen by the European Union and Islamic leaders.

He added that the work of building bridges between Islam and the West had to "begin with young people," and said that “textbooks should be checked to ensure they promoted European values without propagating religious stereotypes or prejudice.”

Pttering suggested that the EU could co-operate with the 56-nation Organization of the Islamic Conference, which has its headquarters in Saudi Arabia, to create a textbook review committee.

This is just the begining of a long drawn out temper tantrum. Get over it.
