For people who don't want to give the Guardian hits,
here is the video.
Muslims are such wimps if they think a silly, lighthearted video like that should be censored. There are apparently only 950 or so Muslim and Leftist controlled accounts disliking the video, though.

I got my copy. Prepare to be summoned to the nearest Turkish consulate for a stern warning.

I say that the ego is the weak point of Islam. One of the main features of it is a overwhelming sense of superiority and Erdogan has it bad. As they begin to take over the west, look for the signs of boundless superiority. Enjoy.
