C'mon you Scousers! 

In light of the current uproar on the inciteful caricatures of our beloved Prophet Mohammad (pbuh) being published throughtout Europe, may I encourage you people to vote whether "Do you believe Western press has the right to publish the controversial cartoons on Prophet Mohammad?" on the Channel News Asia website. Currently it stands at YES (freedom of press) 44% and NO (respect religious sensitivities) 56%. I agree with freedom of press, but what i do not agree is if certain issues might lead to worsening of conditions, more bloodshed and hatred. And i find it rather disrecpectful that Channel News Asia did not acknowledge our Prophet (pbuh) with the rightful title of Prophet, but merely by his first name.

On the flipside, quote of the week certainly has to be from Senor Benitez, "I'm in a hurry and I must go to the hospital to see how Robben is, he could be in hospital for a week,". This he said, during an interview, and really acted as if he was in a rush. Hahahaha. These Spaniards. Wonder what the exchange was between a DUTCH and SPANIARD that made the Spaniard do an about turn and layeth the smackdown.
Comments:
just goes to show how the whole world, especially the Westerners, have a long way to go towards understanding and respecting Islam the religion, or be it other religions as well.Freedom of press does not mean the freedom to disrespect.And with this incident, it has highlighted how ignorant the Western press can be.
