what really does the U.S. approve and sponsor Mr. Pipes?

I can't believe someone is complaining about the "U.S. tax-dollars" being spent on a very good film to educate the United States population. I believe "US tax-dollars" are spent on worse things like bombs to kill innocent children in other countries. Islam is one of the fastest growing religions, and in the U.S. gaining more and more converts, so people need to get used of it,, learn about it, and accept it.

Pipes goes on to state, "I have got my objections to the U.S. government presenting Islam as something that is American and as something that the U.S. government approves of and sponsors."... Please check your statistics in the way of American converts, because Islam is in America and here to STAY. Our U.S. government guarantees the right of every religion to be practiced in the U.S.

As for the U.S. gov. sponsoring this program, look at the many other issues that the U.S. gov. sponsors......like supporting military equipment used to kill innocent people. The U.S. gov. approves of abortion!
I ask this question: Which is better for the U.S. gov. to support? An educational documentary about the Prophet Mohammed (pbuh) or abortion? America is defined as a melting pot,, I think some people need to come to terms with that.....Think about it!
