Thread Name: Salman Rushdie - Outrage.
Subject: RE: Salman Rushdie - Outrage.
Just read the thread, Ron. The evidence is all around you. Every time something like this happens, the result is always the same... huge numbers of people people start jumping on the "hate all Muslims" bandwagon. If the US and the UK weren't so deeply involved in the wholesale slaughter of Muslims in more than one country at the present time, something like this might be taken for a coincidence. But with the UK being a part of the aggression against Iraqis and Afghans, as well as participating in beating the war drums for a nuclear attack on Iran, any time we see the kind of result we're seeing with this particular episode - a drastic increase in hate rhetoric against Muslims, we need to consider the likelihood that we are being softened up for some new act of aggression that our governments are planning against Muslim countries.
