Funny how many times I have to correct the lies you post or the accusations you make.
My argument is strong and that is why there were so many stories of collective shame written by Muslim journalists following a school siege.

I think that is a rather weak arguement - basically because there is just as much religous related/motivated violence out there in the news, but you seem to highlight really only those stories that feature Islam.
For example if you log onto Netscape today you can see a story about a Catholic priest commiting sucide after killing two people at a funeral home... or how about the sectarian violence that flared up last month in Ireland? The thing is Islam is as much a religion of peace as Christianity is - radicals and hatemongers can hide within the folds of any religion really, it just important that you realize that the vocal/active minority does not always represent the majority or the true faith.
The question is of course is your fixation on the "negative" stories featuring Islam a product of the us & them or the easy identification of Muslims as the "other" - or is there another not so sub-consious reason?
