Banners Of Moderation

One month on and the cartoon riots continue. The picture below was taken from a rally in Pakistan where it is estimated up 50,000 people attended :

Women supporters of Islamic coalition Mutahida Majlis-e-Amal, or United Action Forum take part in a rally to condemn the publication of cartoons depicting Islamic Prophet Muhammad printed by some Western newspapers, Sunday, March 5, 2006 in Karachi, Pakistan. About 50,000 people, many chanting "Hang those who insulted the prophet," rallied in a southern Pakistani city to protest Prophet Muhammad cartoons. The headbands read: 'God is great.' [edit - the headbands more likely read "Allah is....", big difference]

Like an old Muslim colleague said to me last night, how can over a billion people be wrong?

He demanded I take down my mo-bomb msn display pic because it was racist. He then went on to say the media was Jew and gay run. Amazing. Apart from religion or politics he seems a completely normal guy. Where does he get these thoughts from?
