This (PM statement) is nonsensical. Suppose someone made a horrific, slanderous movie about THE JOOZ or Christians, etc. (No, I’m not saying Wilders’ film is false. My point is, “So what if it were?”) Would Jews or Christians riot in the streets violently, at least to remotely the degree one reasonably can expect of a film that’s critical of ISLAM?

I doubt it.

I don’t care how bad the film is, we all have a right to do as we please when it comes to speech.

Only people trapped in the seventh century guided by a radical view of their religion would do this. Personally I could care less they are offended. They, by their very nature offend me....

A film viscously attacking Christians or Jews is perfectly acceptable, although unpleasant, as neither Christians nor Jews will kill anyone as a consequence.

Many news articles don’t mention that the Danish cartoons contained more than an image of Mohammed. Jesus and Buddha at least were also depicted. Buddhists and Christians did not riot and kill innocent people who didn’t influence the publication of the cartoons.
