Um ... I'd say they've been in danger since the first day they sat foot on the ground over there .....

I lived two years in a muslim country in the late 80's ..... They hated us then. Had rocks thrown at me, got spit on, verbally harassed .... yep, it really hasn't changed.

That's a BS premise. Our troops are ALREADY in danger from islamists. Maybe if the NYT said MORE danger it might make sense, but it wouldn't be any more acceptable.

Catholics do not as a class endanger our troops and Anti-Catholic ads do not add any danger at all.

NYT: Anti-Catholic ads are OK, but anti-Islam ads put our troops in danger
