An elderly nun was murdered, attacked from behind by gunmen who had a problem with Pope Benedict’s recent speech.

Oh, excuse me, the press is only speculating on that connection, it’s not clear to them - they’re not sure this woman wasn’t simply cut down by her pimp, for holding out. Or, you know, maybe this was just a drug deal gone bad. They’ll get to the bottom of it, soon. The cowardly shooting-from-behind of a septegenarian nun might actually have something to do with Muslims rampaging because Benedict dared to address issues of faith and reason, and to suggest that Muslims might better dialogue with the rest of the world if they’d put down their swords, but the mediating intelligences in the fourth estate can’t make that connection just yet. They’ll get back to you on that.

UPDATE: Greek Archbishop Christodoulos has his own words for Islam, and they are much harsher than Benedicts, but just as straight up:
