"The relatively humane killing of Nick Berg as compared to those tortured to death in places like Abu Gharib was a reaction not the cause!"

I don't understand. If incarceration and mistreatment of their fellow Muslims is so heinous, where were their protectors and where was the challenge to this activity when Saddam for so long killed and brutalized Muslims in that place as a matter of policy??

Is it only OK for Muslims to kill Muslims? Is this a 'conditional' indignation they are spouting?

I think it's even worse than that. Saddam was only nominally a Muslim. He was really a socialist dictator, yet the Muslim fundamentalists supported him, with all his atrocities, against the West. I think these people are simply power hungry opportunists, and spouting off about Islam is the way to power and money for them. They are racists, too. I think calling them religious fanatics gives them too much credit.
