Hasn't 1400 years of satan worship been enough already?

I just watched "Fitna," a 17-minute film by Geert Wilders, head of the Dutch Freedom Party, which takes a hard-line stance against Muslim immigration.
Released on the Internet on Thursday, "Fitna" juxtaposes verses from the Koran with images and speeches from the world of jihad. Heads cut off, bodies blown apart, gays executed, toddlers taught to denounce Jews as "apes and pigs," imams calling for global domination, protesters holding up signs reading "God Bless Hitler" and "Freedom go to Hell" -- these are just some of the powerful images from "Fitna," an Arabic word that means "ordeal."
Predictably, various Muslim governments have condemned the film. Half the Jordanian parliament voted to sever ties with the Netherlands. Egypt's grand imam threatened "severe" consequences if the Dutch government didn't ban the film.
Meanwhile, European and U.N. leaders are going through the usual motions of theatrical hand-wringing, heaping all of their anger on Wilders for sowing "hatred."

I read that this morning. It was an excellent article. Debbie Schlussel was upset that AP posted the Pat Condell video. Of course, AP is an atheist who frequently posts Hitchens articles, as well.
But Jonah’s point is that it should be understood that we have an enemy in common and that needs to be more important than trivial things that make us feel smarter or superior. If Islam wins, atheists won’t have much of a voice either. The same goes for arguments between Catholics and Protestants. The same should go for Jews who fear we are going to try to convert them. We have a common enemy, folks, and we need to unite to fight it.
A prophet is without honor in his own country. Wilders is a prophet. Ah, the stupidity of the human race! Can we survive it?
Amen brother. And I consider Brother Goldberg an ally even if he doesn’t share my faith in Jesus Christ.
