2012 Director scared to destroy Islamic religious sites in film
Very smart guy. He destroys Christian religious sites in his film but fears destroying Islamic sites because he doesn't want a death sentence issued by Islamic clerics: http://movies.yahoo.com/feature/movie-t … fatwa.html
This is the first time I ever read a director publicly admitting this fear.
Most religions use fear to subdue their followers but Islam takes it a step further. It is now causing fear in non-Islamic believers .
Very interesting!

I agree, he's probably scared of his own shadow.

Well, Salmon Rushdie had to live the rest of his life in hiding after his Islamic death threat for The Satanic Verses.
I wouldn't want to live a life like that.

Yeah ! christian religionists ain't afraid a no moslem religionists. Any one see where that is going?
Still one of 2 things will happen here:
The christian religionists will go back to the good old days of burning witches. Or the muslim religionists will join the 21st century.

I'm not disagreeing with the premise but I believe Rushdie made an announcement that he "embraced" Islam and apologized for offending the Muslim world with his Satanic Verses. In 1998 Iran dropped the fatwa against him and he has been "out of hiding" since. But I'm sure he's sleeping with one eye open.
