yusuf, Good ones. Lets hear from Vishnottar. I deplore any extremism and sensless violence. I belive violence brews more violence. I think the cartoons were very insensitive act to do depending upon the fragile situation beween middleeast and other islamic nations and west. West has not been fair to east and middle east or even in Africa. Their interest in oil in middle east and diamonds in Africa has driven people into extremism in some sort I believe. De Beers had a lot to do in the civil war of Sierre Leonne. ALso how can we subject innocents for the crime that they have not commited? IS not a holocust enough? I mean punish the culprits but single innocent soul should not be subject to any hate or crime. First of all my knowledge about any religion is very limited. Thats why I like to hear from knowlegible people like Yusuf and Vishnottar.
