"So politically correct in France (and Germany) is prejudice against a religion?"

Not really. You have to remember that Europe is different and in some ways more provincial than the US. Look at the great divide on evolution. US scientists tend to believe that Homo Sapiens displaced Homo Neadertalis, which European scientists tend to believe that Homo Neadertalis evolved into Homo Sapiens pretty much simultaneously across Europe. Americans ar much more open to people moving from other areas and becoming natives, while Europe, as a whole, isn't. It isn't as much the religion as the origins of the practitioners. They just aren't European enough, and won't be for many generations.

This pic was taken a few seconds before they were blown up by a Muslim "insurgent" suicide bomber. With them 60 others and add to that "a few" injured.

Makes Bush - and me - look bad, I guess.

No, I don't think so. They are still building Mosques both places with financial support from the state as well and they just opened a new synagogue in Munich.

Understand you have not been following this and I hope I satisfied your curiosity.
