so that's your answer to the muslim overreaction to some european newspapers...blame the Jews, how original and how telling.

Are you seriously telling me middle eastern and other islamic press are not writing/covering anti-western/Jewish stories non-stop?, complete with cartoons.
How are you aware of such things, are your accounts first hand or from the free media.[/quote:b8a84]

Am I blaming the jews? You are putting words in my mouth Eight Ace...not one sentence in my post did I proclaim the jews are to blame. I merely used the jews as a example of how the media reports and how it doesnt cover certain things. And I don't think I have to give statistics because its blantly obvious. And Al jazeera which is considered pro arab by many it is also considered anti arab because they have zionists commentators write articles and appear on t.v..

And to sum up what someone said on another board..(I'm bringing up jews and no I'm not blaming them) [quote:b8a84]As I've said before, the outrage some muslims feel about these cartoons can be compared to western outrage to holocaust jokes/cartoons.[/quote:b8a84]

I find out about these things in books, and by reading the footnotes of their sources they get them from first hand accounts or they actually went to Israel to find these things out on their own. They also get them from church reports, which are usually christian.
