I disagree with your reverse psychology premise. What can I say, I think it's truly silly.

How have the Christians and the Jews fared through all their persecution?

I think it made them stronger.

Yes, they are a force to reckoned with in the Islamic world.

Banning a book for religious purposes will only create a complete and total demand for it.. people will do anything if they believe.

It's cruel, inhumane and counterproductive. Just refute it! All you are doing is building a market..

I find this a little breathtaking. These are people who send boys to blow up women and children. Our notions of humanity are alien to them.

Fanatics are refuted by wiping them out and purging the poison from any survivors.

"Humane" thinking such as yours has brought us to this. It is perceived as weakness by Muslims, and that builds the market.
