Another way to view the removing of the two Mohammed statues is that Islam has done us a great service. The more of these images that are removed from our sight, the better for the country as a whole. So in this instance, rather than assuming Islam is forcing its precepts on the Western world, the United States in particular, we should accommodate it by gracefully acquiescing to their requests.
