Okay, so can we finally stop with the idiotic, divisive, and destructive efforts by “majority sections” of Western nations to bait Muslim members with petulant, futile demonstrations that “they” aren’t going to tell “us” what can and can’t be done in free societies? Because not only are such Islamophobic antics futile and childish, but they also openly beg for the very violent responses from extremists their authors claim to proudly defy in the name of common good. What common good is served by creating more division and anger, and by tempting belligerent reaction?

Let me see if I understand their logic. Let’s say they print an anti-Christian/anti-conservative article (which they do constantly). If Christians or conservative were to attack their offices over such an article, then they would cease all such stories? Otherwise they would be then “baiting” Christians and conservatives correct?
It is really awful. But here is what I saw what the French have to put up with.

“Peace in our time” LOL
Yes, and the child openly begs to be beaten to death by not washing his hands.
Really guys? Really?
Whoa-unbelievable.
So, Crumley, when did you convert to Islam?
Your first sentence was stupidity on parade.
Because when you bait them a little, the truth comes out. You see, you can do the same thing to Christians, Jews, Hindus, and Buddhists... and you don't get this reaction. You do it to Muslims, you get this reaction. And then you can see the difference between this religion and all the others.
That's why.
Hey Crumley. By your warped leftist thinking, the Jews of Germany and Austria had it “coming” because their very being was antagonistic to the Nazis.
Seig Heil, you sick POS!
The dhimmitude is strong in this one...
Bump for the link
TIME quit being revalent years ago.

They think defending the terrorists will save them
But for everyone else, please note that Detective made clear right at the top that this is an article from more than three years ago.
Time Magazine and the author may have a different opinion about shooting people than about firebombing a building. After all, guns were used in the attack and we all know what liberals think about guns ;-)
On a more serious point, somebody ought to do some research in the Time Magazine archives and find some articles from the Luce days about the Middle East. Luce, for all his faults, was a virulent anti-Communist, a defender of individualism, and a supporter of free speech and free enterprise. It would not surprise me if his magazine decades ago had some severely negative comments about Islam and its role in human history.
I don't know but I'd like to read comments by anyone who does know, or who can take the time to do the research.
I bet TIME thought Larry Flynt was a “free speech” hero
