 Yes, but its not as strong a anti-Muslim bias as I'd like, and I wish the
West had a similar anti-Christian bias.

As rules of thumb go that one isn't bad.

When Monty Python insulted the most sacred cultural symbol of the West 30
years ago with their movie "The Life of Brian" did homicidal American mobs
attack the British Embassy and murder the ambassador? No, instead people
who didn't like the movie just gave it bad reviews because they were
something called *civilized*.  And by the way, anybody on this list who has
not seen that wonderful movie should hang their head in shame.

I say "LOOK AT THESE UNCIVILIZED PEOPLE!" and my name is John K Clark. It
just amazes me that people, even people on this list, continue to make lame
excuses for these murderous nincompoops.
