I find it curious that while this man gets his (deserved) criticism, ne'er a word gets spoken about the upto of a billion people that will murder, burn and riot because of this. And people say the Koran is sacred like it's an excuse.

It is constantly re-enforced to us that extremist islam is a small minority and we need to show tolerance and turn the other cheek but I think muslims around the world need to appreciate occasionally it had to happen in reverse too.

If there's one thing I find curious about this is that by the time the story broke in the UK yesterday morning, there was already video of reactions from Afghanistan. Afghanistan is mostly destitute farmers with barely any working electricity. Yet they find out before us? Word travels fast in certain circles.
