Muslims should be held to account for their reactions to freedom of expression.

concerns they could enrage Muslims and pose a security risk.

Hamas: Pope is Nazi, arrogant, stupid and criminal;
Allah will punish Pope in due time

by Itamar Marcus and Barbara Crook- Sept. 25, 2006

A cartoon in the current issue of the official Hamas weekly "Al Risala" features Pope Benedict holding a Swastika while wearing a scarf of US and Danish flags.

Meanwhile, on Fatah-controlled PA TV, a Hamas religious leader called the Pope "criminal and arrogant," "ignorant and stupid," and then warned the Pope to await his punishment. Allah doesn't necessarily punish the wicked immediately, but waits "until a day when eyes will stare (in terror)."

From the Friday sermon by Hamas religious leader, Dr. Osama Al-Mazini:

"The second message is for the criminal Benedict the 16th, the Vatican Pope. For this ignorant and stupid Pope, who has no one to attack besides Islam and the Prophet [Muhammad], may the Creator have mercy on him and protect him. He [the Pope] characterized Islam as a cruel religion, and characterized Muhammad, may the Creator have mercy on him and protect him, as a cruel man, spilling blood, who strove to kill. This hostile Pope refuses to apologize to Muslims; and, instead of apologizing he blames the Muslims for not understanding, thereby adding crime upon crime. This arrogant Pope sees the Muslims as too inferior that he should apologize to them. To this arrogant Pope - criminal and arrogant - this message is from Allah the Elevated and the Exalted, as it was said: 'Think not that Allah is unaware of what the wicked do. He but gives them a respite until a day when eyes will stare (in terror).' [Sura14:42]" [Palestinian Authority TV, September 22, 2006]

They are still furious about the Pope quoting an Emperor (who was surrounded by Mohammadans hell-bent on destroying his city and empire) who said that Muslims are given to violence.
Mind you, this is the same Palestinian weekly that suggested people should put anthrax in the US water supply back in November 2001.
