Mulsim leaders held to different standard than Xian leaders? powderpuff 08/24/05
    If an Islamic Imam suggested that his state or country assassinate the US President, he would (at least) be given the label of terrorist and dealt with as such. So why is it that a Christian leader can suggest that the US assassinate Chavez and his statements are brushed off with: "Private citizens say all kinds of things all the time"?

    Is it because in the US we have free speech? Our speech isn't completely free, there are hate speech laws.

    What is the difference between a Muslim leader calling for the assassination of a foreign leader and a Christian leader calling for the assassination of a foreign leader?
