In the West Muslims are untouchable.

Yesteday in London, Muslims demonstrated, shouting vile abuse and displayed signs threatning death and destruction. Yet no police action was taken.

Rewards are offered to kill the cartoonists, publishers, editors. Millions of Muslims are on the streets protesting.

Yet every Muslim blasphemes daily against Christ and Christianity, Judaism and all other religions by recitation of Quran. Quranic verses blaspheming against Christianity and Judaism and calling these and all other religions false and corrupted are read on air waves and printed in newspapers throughout the world.

But no Muslim is ever punished for it or ever apologizes for it.

With these double standards, is it a wonder they cannot lose?
