#2 Muslims vs Apple. One is a group of fanatical zelots who are easily offended and go on the attack whenever they feel their symbols or beliefs are questioned. The others are followers of Islam.

Rofl!!!!! Coffee Alert!

#6  "One idiot was, and it all has blown up into a mess." -which is what they'll say after some klinger runs in there w/a bomb belt.

"Muslims, why do they hate......prety much everything?"

-it's all in the koran bro'.

Seriously, if I couldn't drink a beer, look at fine women, watch sports, and had to live in a big kitty litter box & then had to pray five times a day on some diry ass rug to some prick, I'd be one miserably-touchy s.o.b. as well.

#8 Apple's Fifth Avenue store in New York City "blasphemous" and an "insult to Islam"

#10 Although its cube-shape may resemble the Ka'ba, the dimensions are different.

Simple solution, blow the Ka'ba to hell and nothing will ever resemble it ever again.

"What surprised me is that people associate us here with the crackpots.

It's only a surprise to you easily offended crackpots. It's no news to us sane people who are fucking fed up over having to deal with a bunch of skinless psycho fanatics who make unreasonable demands every five seconds.

That's what surprised me. I guess it just shows how sensitive that people are on both sides, with non-Muslims thinking we're all offended by everything and a sense among Muslims that they're under attack."

No. You are "offended by everything" and the rest of us are so damned sick of it that we are beginning to attack your sorry Muslim asses. Go back to your Islamic hell holes utopias and remind yourselves why you ever wanted to leave in the first place.

#12 I suppose I shouldnt be so offended by muslims constructing buildings using cross members or cross beams in their construction plans. Sorry everyone... I was way out of line.

#13 And I will resist the urge to count how many times Mr Amanullah used the letter "t" in his insulting response, though clearly meant to provoke Christians.

#15 "Muslims aren't offended," he said. "One idiot was, and it all has blown up into a mess."

Oh, yeah? Well there's more than one idiot here, bub, and I didn't require a MEMRI translation to figure it out.

This was noted on LGF the other day. You'll note that virtually all the comments telling people to get a grip date from the day of the LGF post.
