I watched the film and cringed a few times at the wanton violence perpetrated by some Muslims in the name of jihad.
I saw
this article on Yahoo News and found it utterly absurd. Follow along with me.
Muslim nations condemn Dutch Koran film

AMSTERDAM (Reuters) - Muslim nations on Friday condemned a film by a Dutch lawmaker that accuses the Koran of inciting violence, and Dutch Muslim leaders urged restraint.
First, the Dutch lawmaker's film does NOT accuse the Koran of inciting violence. The narrator reads numerous passages from the Koran THAT INCITE VIOLENCE IN THE NAME OF AND ON BEHALF OF ISLAM.
Geert Wilders, leader of the anti-immigration Freedom Party, launched his short video on the Internet on Thursday evening, prompting an al Qaeda-linked website to call for his death and increased attacks on Dutch soldiers in Afghanistan.
Profound irony and hypocrisy! Muslims are afraid the movie will paint them as violent extremists. So theIr response is to call for the murder of a Dutch civilian and increased attempts to kill Dutch soldiers in the name of protecting Islam, the Prophet and the Koran.
"The correct Sharia (Islamic law) response is to cut (off) his head and let him follow his predecessor, van Gogh, to hell," a member of Al-Ekhlaas wrote on the al-Qaeda affiliated forum, according to the SITE Institute, a U.S.-based terrorism monitoring service.
The same extremists then point out the correct, institutional Islamic response is to murder the film maker.
Well, it is obviously clear that the problem is not the people urging, and even demanding, yet more murder and mayhem. The problem is the Dutch film maker who pointed out that Muslims are doing so on a daily basis in response to every real or imagined "insult to Islam." Make a film? Off with your head! Name a stuffed animal Mohammed? Of with your head! Sit on the wrong train in Madrid or wrong bus in London? Blow them up!
I'll believe that Islam isn't the problem when the Imams in London, Amsterdam and Falls Church stand up and demand an end to the murders committed by Muslims and stop justifying those murders by quoting from the Koran.
Just another day in "the religion of peace."
