Even those who reject the term as loaded and simplistic speak sadly of a perhaps catastrophic failure of understanding between Americans in particular and many Muslims.
The outrage and violence over a crude film ridiculing the Prophet Mohammad points to a chasm between Western free speech and individualism and the sensitivities of some Muslims over what they see as a campaign of humiliation.
There seems no shortage of forces on both sides to fan the flames. The tumult over the video had not even subsided when a French magazine this week printed a new cartoon showing the prophet naked.

Don’t worry, Baraq Hussein is working hard to bridge the divide..
With our tax dollars! Yay!
The time is coming.....soon.
It should be dangerous to them, not us. But Bambi’s got it backwards.

When in history has it been a good thing to have a group like the religion of pieces in charge?
Ann Barnhardt wrote a great piece on this on 9/17/12 ARREST PETER JACKSON & VIGGO MORTENSEN NOW! on her blog http://barnhardt.biz/
I urge all to read it!
The Untied States alone have been at war with these people for over two hundred years:
The U.S. Ambassador to France, Thomas Jefferson, complained that paying ransom to Hassan would only encourage more attacks. The U.S. Congress chose bribery. The U.S. paid Algiers its ransom and as much as $1 million each year for the next fifteen years, to the year 1800 — something like 20 percent of government revenues, Federal revenues in 1800 adding up to a little more than 10 million dollars.
In France, Jefferson asked Tripoli’s ambassador what right Tripoli had to extort money and take slaves. According to Jefferson, the ambassador answered that such a right was founded on the Laws of the Prophet: that it was written in the Koran that all nations who did not recognize their authority were sinners; that it was their right and duty to make war upon them wherever they could be found; and to make slaves of all they could take as prisoners; and that every Muslim slain in battle was sure to go to heaven.
A time is coming soon and we lovers of freedom will have to choose!
“I see in your eyes the same fear that would take the heart of me. A day may come when the courage of men fails, when we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship, but it is not this day. An hour of woes and shattered shields, when the age of men comes crashing down! But it is not this day! This day we fight! By all that you hold dear on this good Earth, I bid you stand, Men of the West!”
Islam. The ultimate “War on Women”....
Islam. Miss Fluke will long for the days of whining about her free bc.
Islam. Where even the atheists will have to bend the knee..
Islam. The tree huggers, the save the spotted owl folk will have (pun intended) bigger fish to fry.
....need I go on?
The *original* Evil Empire.
Looks like Kinkos has been working overtime.
Do you have an authentic link to this? It seems absurd that Jefferson would have said this, considering that he owned slaves, personally.
Thanks to mudslimes, the “Planet of the Apes” movies will be thought of as a documentary of the planet earth.
Their inbreeding and insane hate cult keeps the majority of them at the functioning retard level.

The halls of Tripoli isn’t in The Marine Corps anthem for nothing.
Sheesh, the divide has been there ever since islam was created 13 centuries ago.
The West, with the exception of a few centuries, has had this great ability to stick its head deep in the sand.
What is the logic of contributing to a political party, dem or pub, when neither is willing nor able to recognize the relentless spread of islam in the country? When sharia law is established, there won’t be any political party left.
Don’t these numbnut congresscritters realize it? Or is it perhaps that they don’t care?
There is no “failure of understanding.”
We know exactly what they are and what they’re up to.
