Europe should look at this response and the response of Americans ("who were stupid enough to vote for Bush") and ask the question....why the difference?

Maybe certain Europeans actually have a better understanding of what Islam is about than do the Americans? It will come to the point that mosques are burned and torn down -- or else all the synagogues and churches will be. Islam makes this an either-or situation.

But that's just my point! Europe DOESN'T understand the danger of Islamic fundamentalism...or at least, their governments don't. If they truly did, why is America painted as the imperialist aggressor in the War on Terror and in Iraq? When we acted like victims, the Europeans loved us. When we fought back, they hated us. I didn't see the Netherlands coming to our defense in the UN.
I hope what has happened in the Netherlands will open the eyes of the Europeans to the Islamofascists that would take over their countries if they are not careful.
America (Bush) is portrayed as a "cowboy" who takes the law into his own hands and starts unjust wars...Too often Islamic fundamentalists and Christian "fundamentalists" are portrayed as equally dangerous when the facts point out the opposite. So I stand by my comment...Americans did NOT burn down mosques or take to the streets except in prayer following 9/11, so I'm tired of Europe portraying us as bigoted aggressors.
