When a Jew killed a number of people in a Hebron mosque, the event was condemned by the world and Jews across the world condemned it as well. Doesn't matter if there was evidence of a planned terrorist attack. Doesn't matter that the attacker was ripped apart. The action was condemned by Jews because it was perpetrated by a Jew. Was 9/11 condemned by the Islamic world? Not really. The UAE said that the real terrorists was Israel. Saudi Arabia handed a check to Giuliani and said that it was all because of the Jews (and he handed it back). There is no universal condemnation of the Muslim on Muslim violence in Iraq by the Islamic world. There is little to no condemnation of terrorist or criminal acts by the Islamic world in general and that alone leads the rest of the world to view them as supporting it (by their silence alone).
So yeh, they should take responsability for those who use their name, religion, etc. for crimes. > On 3/2/06, Michael Dinowitz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> The argument that the Muhammad cartoons are treated differently than >> Holocaust denial is simply a way of casting off responsibility for how >> the >> world sees Islam.
