Islam does not require respect. It DEMANDS respect for being God's perfection, and will intimidate and murder at any slight, criticism or insult. Primitive, barbaric, totalitarian and totally unfit for the 21st century (or the 19th for that matter).

I have just viewed Wilder's film and it merely confirms my opinion that conservative Islam (from Morocco to Kashmir) should be fenced in to save us all from a Dark Age which would know no end.
