Kind of Embarressed...

Looking at this article in Aljazeera: Berlin police protect Mozart opera am starting to really get embarrassed and slightly annoyed by how Muslims are being portrayed and are portraying themselves. I mean is it possible that the Muslims of Germany will get upset about a opera written many years ago which includes the severed head of Muhammad-which also includes the severed heads of Jesus, Buddha and Poseidon. It states that the Muslim groups had dismissed any likely hood of something happening, but that the German Police would think that they would be the only ones to react violently, is either-and I can't decide-a form of racism or a true appraisal of Muslim reaction lately!!!!

    Protests can be non-violent. Ghandi and Martin Luther King, Jr are examples of leaders who protested non-violently. There are many Christians who are offended by the thought of Jesus being beheaded, but Jesus taught to turn the other cheek and pray for those who persecute; he didn't teach to protest violently.

    When and if you decide to comment again-can you kindly stick to the topic. Me going and coming from work drunk of my mind has NOTHING to do with what the post was about.

    I see your point completey, but what I found disturbing was that they were somehome preemting the attacks-which never happened-still can't decide if this is racism on their part or something else.
