Yeah, right. It's all about politics and the advantage to use certain events (e.g. Newsweek) to further their cause and the spread of Islam and increase anti-American sentiments. Heck, even Liberals get involved.
Now, here is a little known story in Japan where a Japanese woman cut up the koran and dumped the remains in front of a used car Pakistani dealer. No international outcry and frothing of the mouths because of this? Where was Newsweek?
Frontpage says it well:
One element lost in all the coverage of the jihadist-inspired riots is the rioters' utter hypocrisy. Their concerns for the Muslim holy book did not manifest when they burned mosques to the ground in Pakistan over the past few months. Nor did they launch demonstrations after they destroyed mosques in Iraq throughout the year. There were certainly hundreds of Korans burned into ashes. (It didn't hurt that the owners of these mosques were Shi'ites.) A couple of decades earlier, Hafez Assad's brutal brigades leveled off the mosques of the city of Hama. Thousands of Korans were destroyed (along with 20,000 Sunnis). Yet, the Arab and Islamic world didn't raise a ruckus.
The selective outrage over the destroyed Korans is not theological but political. It is only when the Islamists want to wage a jihad for their holy book that infractions begin to make any difference to them. When Arab militias raids black Muslim villages in Darfur, and destroy them, along with their holy books, that is acceptable, but one sentence in an article published in a U.S. magazine deserves a whole holy war? Who are we kidding here?
Again, Muslim adherents and terrorists are nothing by hypocrites when they do this. A few smart writers address these things. If Liberals stay quiet about this, are they siding with the Muslim terrorists who want to see America go down in flames?
We live in a dangerous time. Pick your friends carefully.
