Americans for Double Standards – The American Double Standard On Religious Violence.

As salaamu alai kum wa rahmatullahi wa barakath.

According to this, the Americans think if a Christian commits an act of terrorism, he isn’t really a Christian but if a Muslim does the same, he is a Muslim!

So much for education and broad mindedness.
