Didn't we just have a whole international thing about repressing freedom of speech and expression? From what I recall (it's only been a few days) it was pretty poignant.

Maybe the National Jewish Democratic Council can hold a joint rally with the Stand for the Prophet folks to "Demand Honor and Respect".

Don't like it? Think the statement is in "poor taste"? Fine. You have that right. And have every right to express you opinion about it.

You have no right, however, to "demand an apology" - anymore than the wolves in sheeps clothing that will gather in Texas this weekend do to "demand honor and respect".

Agree completely. Nothing like making the massacre of 17 political.

Shame on both sides.

"Including a picture of a woman into something so sacred, as far as we are concerned, it can desecrate the memory of the martyrs and not the other way around," he said.
