Full story in two parts:
...when you say Muslims did this, do you mean Muhammed Ali? No, he means Muslims those Muslims the ones who did it.
But what of Muhammed Ali? To my knowledge he never hurt anyone (outside of the ring) but the fact is that due to his association with the Nation of Islam, when Malcolm X was murdered Muhammed Ali did, in fact, state that anyone who comes against the prophet deserves death.
Likewise, due to his involvement with Islam, Cat Stevens aka Yusuf Islam supported the attempts to murder Salman Rushdie for writing, The Satanic Verses (find details here and here)...

“.when you say Muslims did this, do you mean Muhammed Ali?”
What an absolutely ridiculous comparison.
These people have no shame what so ever.
Whoopie and Joy should be forced to spend a month in Saudi Arabia or Iran. Then let them tell us of the glories of islam.
Whoopie and Joy should be forced to spend a month in the Swat Valley of Pakistan...............
They’d starve to death.............Probably neither on knows how to cook.............
“Muhammed Ali did, in fact, state that anyone who comes against the prophet deserves death. Likewise,”

**NOTE- There is another class of colored people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongs, partly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs.
