| 40. You don't have to be a "crazy imam" to be angry about sacrilege |

against the Prophet Mohammad (PBUH).
I have been struck by how American DU'ers have reacted to the current row precipitated by the Danish cartoons. This has really rattled even Democrats.
A quarter of the world's population is Muslim, and I believe that most of them hate America more now than they did pre-2003 and the illegal invasion of Iraq. With that unifying thought - and their Muslim governments standing back (why should they not) - ordinary Muslims on the street could do a lot of damage to US investments and credibility around the world, in a very short time. True people-power - this is a way in which the US superiority in military terms could be neutralised.
