Thank you Becky (and Stirling)... you made a better job of the point I was trying to make earlier. It seems that anyone that speaks out about Muslim intolerance towards other religions/cultures is shouted down or met with the old racist jibe by the lefty liberals. In my opinion if this chap has been cautioned it is unfair and unwarranted... after all surely he is entitled to ask why people of a certain religion are killing and maiming others for no good reason that is logical to normal behaviour? It would of course depend on what you mean by Muslim. There is a very broad and wide spectrum of different belief systems of Islam that fall under those catagories - Some of which, such as Isma'ilism (which has numerous different paths) promote a tolerant and law abiding approach to non-Muslims. Certain Sunni Islamists seem to be a rather specific problem for the Western nations, a problem that even many of the Shia Islamists are generally more localised than international in their outlook, usually being linked to national struggles (such as Palestine, Lebanon and the Golan Heights). Even Iran, is largely about Iranian political issues and its 'anti-US' vitriol is more about historical enemies and the US support of Israel. In fairness though, its easy to generalise, often I do it by mistakenly lumping everything Christian into a criticism of the Christian fundamentalism and the US Christian Right
