The Law of Unintended Consequences does exist but it only comes into existence when you think it doesn't apply in your particular case. Damned inconvenient law!
Things do bite back but the Sunnis did appear to have fallen for the West's Divide and Conquer stratagem and with Israel donning on the cloak of invisibility it appeared the majority had fallen for this spoof hook line and sinker.
Isreal's feint at attacking Shialand also seemed to be working. And everyone thought it was a cell phone revolution and a bit of reality television.

Food Riots

Why are the campaigners for justice staying so steadiy silent about the gross injustice of these protests, riots, attacks and murders?

To those who comment on the crusades, one can only point out that the later Muslim conquest of Europe was hardly a humane undertaking. In terms of genocide and death by neglect, person's of the Muslim faith have hardly been the only ones affected by this in the 20th Century, nor was this specifically directed at Muslims because of their faith. Virtually all peoples and cultures on the planet have been subjected to this by product of unrestrained mercenary capitolism (which was the basis for colonialism, neo-colonialism, modern corpratism etc) at some point. Perhaps you should read the real histories of North America, South America, China etc - masacre, starvation, exploitation and death through neglect were (and in many cases still are) commonplace. It was about making money, not about religion or culture. Most of the affected peoples were not of the Muslim faith. This belief that Muslims were somehow singled out is just a historical nonsense that denies the fact that similar events have occurred throughout recorded history to many different peoples. The only answer is: (a) learn some of the real history rather than overdosing on propaganda; (b) all sides in the debate need stop using ancient history to justify acts of barbarism; and (c) Get Over It!

Well at least, unlike The Guardian, you're not aiding and abetting violence against the film makers. They seem to have forgotten what side of the bread their butter is on when it comes to free expression.

Muhammed married a 7 year old child named Ayesha. Muhammad was a paedophile!

Shame they cant spare a little outrage for the massacres of there "Brothers" in Syria

My post was censored out and below is an edited version.

One supposes that Muslim anger at the US and the West that has now boiled over into violent riots is not just about this utterly repugnant and offensive American movie but also about the Zionist-backed US War on Muslims that has killed 12 million Muslims through violence or war-imposed deprivation since 1990. Muslims should eschew violence and join others in resolutely speaking out and informing everyone about the ongoing Muslim Holocaust.

Muslims have been subject to Western-imposed horrendous mass murder events for a thousand years e.g. the mass murder of the people of Jerusalem by the Crusaders on 15 July 1099 - more than 70,000 dead bodies of Muslim children and women were found in the Mosque of Omar in Jerusalem alone. In the13th century the Mongols under Genghis Khan killed millions in Iraq and adjoining. regions. In 1492 millions of Muslims (and Jews) were killed or expelled from Spain, putting an end to the brilliant civilization of Moorish Spain. Millions of Muslims were killed in subsequent centuries due to expansion of the Russian Empire in Asia, the British, French , Spanish and Portuguese Empires in Africa and Asia and the Dutch Empire in South East Asia (principally in what is now Indonesia).

However the lot of Muslims since at the hands of the West since 1945 has involved horrendous colonialism, neo-colonialism, US hegemony and genocide on a huge and bloody scale. According to UN statistics, since 1950 avoidable deaths from imposed deprivation have totalled 1.3 billion for the World, 1.2 billion for the non-European world and 0.6 billion for the Muslim World, a Muslim Holocaust ONE HUNDRED (100) times greater than the WW2 Jewish Holocaust (5-6 million killed, 1 in 6 dying from deprivation) or the “forgotten”
WW2 Bengali Holocaust (6-7 million Indians, half of them Muslims, starved to death by the British under Churchill for strategic reasons, with Australia being complicit through withholding food for starving India from its huge grain stores) (see my books “Body Count. Global avoidable mortality since 1950” and “Jane Austen and the Black Hole of British History”, now both available for free perusal on the Web).

The last 2 decades have seen an horrendous Neocon American and Zionist Imperialist-backed US War on Muslims in which the UK, NATO, Israel and Australia have variously participated and which since 1990 has killed 12 million Muslims through violence or war-imposed deprivation, the breakdown being 0.1 million (Palestinian Genocide; 2 million since 1936), 4.6 million (Iraqi Genocide), 5.6 million (Afghan Genocide), 2.2 million (Somali Genocide), 0.1 million (Libyan Genocide) (for details Google “Muslim Holocaust, Muslim Genocide”).

In 1945 after the WW2 Holocaust (30 million Slavs, Jews and Gypsies killed) the Germans adopted a CAAAA (C4A) protocol of Ceasing the killing, Acknowledgment of the crimes, Apology and Amends for the crimes, and Assertion “never again to anyone”. The countries of the US Alliance involved in the Zionist-backed US War on Muslims need to adopt the same CAAAA protocol and Cease killing Muslims, Acknowledge the Muslim Holocaust, Apologize and make Amends and Assert”never again”. They need to dissociate themselves from the genocidally racist, nuclear terrorist rogue states of the US and Apartheid Israel. Further, the horrendous dimensions of the Muslim Holocaust demand that the Zionists and their supporters should be sidelined in public life as have been racists such as the Nazis, neo-Nazis , Apartheiders and KKK. Peace is the only way but silence kills and silence is complicity – decent people should tell everyone they can.

Oh dear what happened to the Arab Spring, the fact is we should just walk away and let them and the Isreali nutters get on with it
