You'll Never Out-Satan America

From Mark Steyn, via Viking Pundit.

The point is the world's Muslims seem entirely cool with Infidel Bob razing a mosque. Unlike the fallout over Newsweek's fraudulent story about the Quran being flushed down a toilet, no excitable young men went bananas in Pakistan; no western progressives berated Mugabe for his "cultural insensitivity." And sadly most of the big shot Muslim spokespersons were still too busy flaying the Bush administration to whip their subjects into a frenzy over Hatcliffe Extension's pile of Islamic rubble.

Kill civilian Muslims with car bombings? No problem. Destroy a mosque? Oh well. Allow an American to hold a Koran incorrectly as he's giving it to a terrorist prisoner? Burn the whole damn country down!
