		<description>"As an Islamist, I am of course against the hate speech and the anti-Islamic sentiments Amer expressed in his blog."

Kareen must suffer because he attacked the regime and because the regime feels the anti-islam charge will make the Islamist's happy. How stupid. The only interest the MB has is to use it against the pathetic government in power.  If and when the Islamists come to power, it will only get worse.  Christian blood will flow red in the streets of Egypt.  

As an Islamist, you are against free speech, not hate speech.  If you were against hate speech, you would reject the the Quran, which in case you haven't noticed is full of hate speech against non-Muslims.  If Islamists were in power, this young man would already be dead.  You are just using this case to advance your agenda, just like the government. One group is as evil and pathetic as the other.  Poor Egypt. 

Yes, Kareens writing was anti-Islam.  However, he only wrote the truth as he saw it and as it is.   He witnessed mobs of Muslims attacking Copts.  Is it wrong to talk about that?  Is that hate speech?  He said that Islam's great prophet attacked, plundered, murdered and enslaved.   That is exactly what is found in the hadiths, Islam's own traditions, in case you care to read them. He said there was a link between the two events.  Could be.  Makes sense to me.

Is it wrong to have an opinion?  Is it hate speech?  Is it wrong to tell the truth?

Things are going to get worse because Muslims cannot be honest and will not respect other people.

PS:   Tell me, don't Muslims have any faith in Allah?  Don't they think he (their god) can punish apostates and infidels?  It appears that they don't trust him to punish people like Kareen and others who leave Islam, so they have to do it themselves.  That tells one a lot about this religion, and its followers.  Think about this, why don't you...</description>
