All quiet on the muslim front

Oh dear, Scandinavia is in trouble again because of free speech. This time, I’m glad the Israelis limit themselves to picketing embassies (that’s freedom of speech) instead of torching them like offended muslims did during the Danish cartoon controversy (that’s criminal).

Plus, I can’t help wondering what the torchers make of the Swedish government refusing to apologize to Israel. Didn’t muslims say that free speech was misused to offend islam? Now that free speech is offending Israelis, are the torchers
a) happy that Israel is tasting the same lashing they got, or
b) outraged that free speech is once again offending religion.
Or is it only the muslim faith that should be immune to offensive opinions?

What an agonizing choice it must be; having to side with either Scandinavia or Israel. Maybe that’s why it’s so quiet over there? Probably better to sit this one out.
