Jews & Christians I believe actually have something in common in West. Both sets of people are easy targets for cowards because they know they will never get a voilent reaction no matter what is said against them.

It's different with Islam where as people will dare not say anything (such as cartoons) for fear of reprisal. You will notice when athiests choose to mock religion they will always start of on Christianity, for example when talking about abortion, gays, contraception etc. Whats gets me is muslims views on these topics are so extremist!!! to the point of murder.

Off course, the media won't talk about this and it will be seen as "islamophobic" - (a made up word by people who don't wish to intergrate).

It is one thing for someone to deny the holocaust but some people say the numbers are inacurate and they have a right to say this.

In London, the mayor has been sent home for 4 weeks because he compared an annoying reporter to a nazi and refused to apologise. You have to hand it to the jews, there were no protests, no marches, no demonstrations. They even said he should NOT resign. The media obviously was so desperate for stories that had to hang out in Jewish areas interviewing people the whole day.
