Thread Name: BS: Tolerance and the Intolerant
Subject: RE: BS: Tolerance and the Intolerant
How much tolerance should we have of those who are apparantly intolerant of a billion people because of the misdeeds of a few thousand or maybe a few million?

The publicity over the desecration of the Koran is obviously propaganda. It is intended to take narrow minds of the many real greivances the rioters might have had with the US, including torture and illegal detainment in the name of "democracy" and "justice".

I'm not in any way condoning terrorism or the actions of the Taliban, but the thing is that the US has not proven that many of the detainees are terrorists or Taliban.
