QUOTE: "Pakistan has experienced nearly a week of deadly protests over the film, "Innocence of Muslims," that has sparked anti-American violence around the Islamic world since it attracted attention on the Internet in the past 10 days. The deaths of at least 47 people, including the US ambassador to Libya, have been linked to the violence over the film, which was made in California and denigrates the Prophet Muhammad." A FEW IDIOTS in the USA make a cheap film with not a lot going for it and the Muslims get upset and so far they have killed 47 people. I bet the families of the people killed are really & truly upset with Islam with justification. Why doesnt someone educate these ignorant Muslims that Western Countries believe in democracy & Freedom of speech which we know that a Muslim would find difficult to comprehend, when all they have known is autocracy, dictatorship and religous intolerance. Yet what I find difficult to understand is why do Muslim people who seek refugee status want to seek asylum in the USA, Canada, Britain, Australia and NZ?????? Why dont they go to the nearest Islamic country where they would be greeted by other loving muslim people? This way everyone would be a lot happier.

@Katrina - How is the film maker to blame? Yet again we are seing the true value of religion!!! All these idiots are doing is exactly what their religion demands of them! I used to be against muslims but it's not their fault, it is their religous beliefs that makes them do these horrible acts. Its time that the world bans religion and confesses that it is all a load of rubbish and just a big money making scam that is designed to entrap people with fear. Come on people open your eyes

@Katrina - you miss the point. No one should be starting violence because of a film. But Muslims have never believed in freedom of speech, or freedom of religion, or freedom in general, and are racist and sexist. Wanna start a march against them?
