#1 Western reporting on Muslims 'biased'

Those little snafus like 9-11, Bali, Madrid, Bali II and London might have something to do with it.

"The publication of the Prophet Mohammad's caricature has come as a surprise to all of us. Even more surprisingly, a number of Western journalists said they did not know that it was forbidden," Dr Yudhoyono said.

Forbidden to you, f&ckwit, but not to us. Now go play on the freeway or something.

#2 Damn straight. The pretence that anybody infected with Islamic meme is still human is wearing awfully thin.

I believe it is compulsory for us.

#4 I agree with Susilo that western media reporting on Muslims is biased - but in the opposite direction he claims.

#7 SR-71, no it would be one battery short of a full set.

#9 "Western media apply double standards when reporting on Muslims"

They certainly do. They don't report 99.99% of the bad stuff moslems do and blame it in the moslems who did it - rather than blaming it on everything and everyone else but.

As opposed to blaming every Christian anytime one Christian (or purported Christian) does something bad or says something stupid.

Pfui.

#10 The Western Media actually hasn't reported enough about the past recurrence of orchestrated/organised atrocities/genocides happening in Indonesia since its independence. It seems a remote place.

Before the Internet came along it was easy for co-religionists in neigbouring countries' MSM to censor much of such reports until even immediate neighbours knew little about the going ons there.

Indonesia comes across as a country little admired for justice and shrouded in a bad karmic shadow that easily induced the '04 tsunami to claim the heaviest toll.
