Comments: Doesn't take much to 'insult' or 'blaspheme' Islam and the hypersensitive Muslims does it?

This is exactly what is also happening in the West with criticism of the problems with Islam and Muslims being labeled as 'hate' and 'Islamophobia' - in other words, insult or blasphemy.

Sunni-Shiite clash also involved here.

Members of the Ahmadi sect of Islam are also frequent target of blasphemy accusations. 

There is also the case of Christian woman Asia Bibi, sentenced to death after an argument with Muslims women who insulted her by saying water she carried was 'unclean' (In Pakistan Christians are frequently considered unclean). Her death sentence is set to be appealed.

Can't blame 'racist' 'facist' 'imperialists' (and whatever hate-labels and name calling the PC fascists and Islamofascists fancy) White Westerners, or Christian 'crusaders', or invaders or occupiers, or Zionists (Jews) for this one - the usual suspect scape goats for all and any problems of Islam and Muslims.

This is Islam's 'bloody innards' so nothing to do with 'infidels' or 'Kuffar'.

The point as Samuel Huntington pointed out long before 9-11 attacks is that
Islam's borders are bloody and so are its innards. The fundamental problem for the West is not Islamic fundamentalism. It is Islam, a different civilisation whose people are convinced of the superiority of their culture and are obsessed with the inferiority of their power —— Huntington's 1998 text The Clash of Civilizations and the Remaking of the World Order.
