I guess I am more focused on why a large number of people, in the name of a pseudo-religion, justify in their minds the senseless violence. You may be tired of the "walking around on egg shells" analogy but when you set aside your principals because of the concern about how someone is going to act in Afghanistan then they already rule over you.

What I find immensely ironic is we had pictures of our soldiers murdering innocent Afghani civilians and no riots or beheadings. But some obscure preacher in Florida burns a book and wham, riots ensue. The reason is they understand and accept these acts of violence. It is part of their pseudo-religion and part of their culture. They are 6th century savages. And us kowtowing to them and their savagery is exactly the wrong response.

You go ahead and give up your freedoms but I am not going to tell this idiot that he can't burn the koran or any other book.
