After all couldn't an equally disturbing film be made about any faith really if scriptural quotes are "cherry picked" and matched to loosely analogous imagery? China likes to do just that when it comes to Christianity or Buddhism, and we'd all be outraged (or I hope we would be) at the portrayal of Christianity as a violent death cult obsessed with the end of the world, or Buddhism as a dangerous and murderous faith bent on destroying society.
But since it's Islam it seems that many of those already biased or "Islamaphobic" happily lap up the spoon-fed bullshit with out ever question either the motivation behind it, or the context of the content...

You may have missed a prior posting or two of mine.

If there is a problem with the way this film "cherry picked" scriptural quotes, is it not a problem as well if those same quotes and more/worse ones are cherry picked by those who are the leaders/teachers/consulars et al???
And that those same leaders, who no doudt had at least something to do with the threats against film, see nothing wrong with what they do all in the name of Islam and M-d?
