@zulfishah If you have a counter-argument to my point, please tell me. The issues are not nearly as complicated as you’d like me to believe. -
@aral anger over cartoon drawings doesn’t exist in a vacuum. It comes from history (invasions, meddling by western countries) … -
@zulfishah There is absolutely no justification whatsoever for threats or acts of violence over such things. None. -
@aral there isn’t. But this a world where reporting people for sexist jokes can get you rape / death threats as well. -
@zulfishah *sigh* too true :(

@aral@ggreenwald The causal relationship between Islam and islamist fundamentalism is construed IMO. As Atheists, we should be even handedThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
