One idiot condemns a whole nation
Is there anyone in Thailand who would stage a counter-protest for freedom of speech? Even if that anti-Muslim film was made by extremist Christians - for which there doesn't seem to be any real evidence - there is no justification for Islamic extremists to blame a whole nation for their injured religious feelings. Why don't they go to the church in the United States from where they believe the insults originated?
