Why pity Bombay when you can pity yourself?

I only caught the end of the 92KQRS (Twin Cities) crew's discussion of the Islamist terrorism in Bombay (I regret previously using "Mumbai," which is to Bombay as "Myanmar" is to Burma) but if I were a Muslim apologist 10 seconds would have been enough for me to scoff and take offence. Since I am in fact an apologist of reason and liberty, however, I commend Tom Bernard and co.

Their point was, simply, Muslims get outraged over Muhammed cartoons, but are not so incensed after these murders in the name of Islam.

How many Muslims voiced self-pity and self-righteous indignation over the Danish cartoons, the Dutch films, and the prophet muhammed soccer balls, ice-cream treats, and teddy bear (you'd think an innocent teddy bear would be more deserving of the name of a prophet than us vulgar, mammilian humans, but it's the most common name in London). Where is all that emotion now, when Islamists killed a couple hundred infidels? Muslims get so worked up telling people like me Islam is a religion of peace. You'd think they'd get more worked up telling Islamists that. I regret it isn't so.

Woe to Islam, it's true spirit shines in these massacres.
