I am sure that CAIR feels that anyone being held down by the evil Westerners, deserves all the profit that they can earn.

So.....where is the muslim “outrage” over this “desecration” of the koran???? Where is the “outrage” by the MSM????? Where is the continous “reporting” by the MSM over this “insensitivity” to “diversity” and “tolerance”????

Hello?!??! CNN, CBS, NBC, ABC, BBC, etc.? Anybody out there???

I thought so. Must be OK to smuggle hash and narcotics in the koran, gotta keep those hookahs supplied, you know (sarc off)
