Let's put it another way. Post-9/11, no Muslims were killed. One person was killed, but the poor man was a Sikh.

So, in America, fanatics of a religious group can destroy several city blocks and it results in one death.

Meanwhile, a Danish newspaper can print some cartoons, and
Sorry if you thought I was "moving the discussion around"

The issue was about anti-Muslim rhetoric, signs and acts in the US...not in Muslim nations or Denmark....as contributing to the low perception of the US among the citizenry (not the govts) of Muslim countries...along with recent US policies (ie invading Iraq) and the historical support of Israel in the US.

Perhaps.

Young, exploitable Muslims...perhaps not so much.
