        @azizachom I’m not judging any nation. Islam is not a nation, it’s a religion.

        @aral I really think we should just go somewhere else, and leave Earth to the stupid religionists. Particularly the kind of bomby ones.

        @azizachom What’s bothering me? People threatening to get violent if something that hurt their feelings isn’t banned.

        @aral @jaomahony this whole incident has highlighted one thing for me, how people blame others for their own actions, including violence.
