That is, unless you live in the “civilised world”. Here the cure for ANY argument, that someone (somewhere) finds offensive, is censorship.

All it says to me is that there is anti-semitism somewhere in the Islamic world, which I don’t think anyone will try and deny. Are they assuming that everyone thinks all Muslims are the same, then? If I give a speech about the “white power” movement does that insinuate that all white people are racist?
