Repeating lies doesn't strengthen them. Instead you should offer evidence. Of course, you can't.

Re.Islamic art - I do know art in the Islamic world is limited to calligraphy and the use of geometric designs. It is not excluded from Western art forums, but is simply impoverished due to Islamic law.

Since you seems to think you know so much, can you tell me what percentage of today's muslims are sufis?

Thomas,

I am sure Bin Laden, the Al-Qaeda and all radical Muslims looked at the wreckage of the WTC and considered that art. I think you see that when you have praise from these people whenever horrendous acts of terror are committed against innocent people, and they give them credit.

It is art, that will not need to be ignored, but needs to be eradicated, IMHO!

God Bless,
IGIT
