Quoting CNSNews ...Islamic nations against connecting Muslim atricities with "Muslims".

Just thought I would include this little intro to a CNSNews item that pointedly shows Muslim nations trying to slience the reporting of anything violently played out by Muslim terrorists. Don't use the word "Muslim" or "Islam".

"CNSNews.com) - A bloc of Islamic nations says media reporting on terrorist activity should exclude "any reference to Islam," regardless of the affiliation, identity or motivation of the perpetrators. The perpetrators of terror attacks are "deviant and fanatic individuals," the Islamic bloc said."
