You seriously think Condi does not share the same opinion? Her previous sycophantic statements regarding the religion of peace makes her position obvious.

I think the State Dept. needed on this issue to keep their mouths shut if they wanted to pander. Best not say anything.

We are trying to teach the M.E. hopefully better forms of government and a major aspect of that is free speech.

Sure Free Speech provides a forum where people will say and write things other people do not like.

I look here at FR as a prime example. We hear what the dummocrats say and do not like it. Sometimes we would just like to shut them up forever and the best way to do that is win the battle of ideas. Here at FR we have an opportunity to sharpen our wits and strength our arguments.

That is what the Islamics need to do. If they can't handle the criticism then they need to sharpen their arguments why their religion is not backward and irresponsible. They have not done that. No they riot and act like immature children.

Islam is weak in its argument for existence. It provides no sure salvation without suicidal death. It provides no equality among genders, races, and chooses a path of destruction here on earth.

Well Islam it is time for you to enter the arena of ideas and not the arena of fatuitous totalitarianism since your religion is also a political philosophy.

The State dept. failed in not defending the Euros. They failed to make the point of free speech. They failed this nation by making such inconsistent comments. And they failed the Islamics by not making them question their fatuities.

I say next time, get it right, and I stand firm with the Euros on this.

As a Jesus believer, when Christianity is mocked, my reaction is not riot but to pray for peoples souls that the unbeliever and the mocker may exist forever and know the beauty of our Lord. Sure it hurts, sure it is a cause for anger. But it should never be a reason to destroy in the name of the Creator.

If Islam is submission to God, then it is demanded of them, absolutely demanded of them to do the same as the Christian in the same situation. Period.

And yea Condi, if you ok'd this, you failed.
