This article is either several years old, or looking a month into the future.

TIME OUT.
The date on this article is way wrong. This happened years ago when the Taliban did rule Afghanistan.
They don't now.

The copyright is 2001. Why isn't this in Breaking News or at least breaking wind?

This article and others were written in March 2001.

I wish you had added a comment concerning the current furore over the cartoons vs. the Muslim desecration of religious symbols of other faiths....if that was your point.

This is from March 9,2001. Sorry. Didn't enter the date and it defaulted to today.
The point is Muslims are probably the most intolerant faith on the planet. They burn Christian churches in Pakistan, are rabid anti-Semites, and anti-Hindu. Yet, no faith is more sensitive to slights against itself.
They don't respect any one else's religion. Why are they surprised when people call them out on what they really are? Murderers, suicide bombers, kidnappers, filled with hate for all humanity?

There is only ONE God ...The God of Abraham,Isaac & Jacob
ALL others are masquerades of the same anti-God entity
once upon a time he was known as Lucifer after the fall he is now known as Satan..
Anyone who worships a false god or who denies the One true God worships Satan..
A man's very thoughts and actions are his worship...
