It was I who challenged you to make your own arguments, memyself, so thanks ever so much for replying - And with very good arguments too.

The point you make about the press is one I liked particularly. It is a dichotomy, when we talk about freedoms, that the freedom of the press is regularly discussed. The press must of course be free but to what extent? Should they be free, as in this case, to stir up bad feelings against a sector of the community that could well do without it? I think not. I stopped believeing the press and all 'news' coverage many years ago when I realised that every single one of them gives only their version of the truth.

Knowing what is going on is one thing. Being told what to think is another. The press do indeed have an awful lot to answer for. What we see about riots and demonstrations in the Moslem coutries lead me to conclude that their press is as bad as ours as well. If we can believe what we see of course;-)
