Wait a minute. Aren't we supposed to believe that Muslims condemn and abhor terrorism? At least until someone mocks an Islamic terrorist. Then suddenly one has offended all Muslims. But if they really condemn terrorism, wouldn't they find Achmed the Dead Terrorist inoffensive and maybe even helpful?
Funnyman ventriloquist Jeff Dunham is fuming after a ringtone advertisement based on his popular comedy skit, "Achmed the Dead Terrorist," was scrubbed from South African TV because it mocks Islam.
The ringtone was taken from a puppet routine performed by Dunham, a native Texan, in a TV special on Comedy Central. A 10-minute clip of the comedian's routine that was posted on YouTube has been viewed more than 66 million times since April.
... South Africa's Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) ruled that a GloMobile ringtone commercial featuring Dunham and his puppet was offensive to Muslims...
ASA officials said a South African man, Moegamat Khan, had filed a complaint that the commercial was offensive to the Islamic religion and created an impression that all Muslims were terrorists.

Yep, and Lawrence Auster had this to say the other day:
"If advocacy of and/or belief in sharia are grounds for barring an individual from the United States, then, given the fact that all Muslims are commanded by their religion to live under sharia and to expand sharia to non-Muslim lands when possible, and given that there is no way we can determine which Muslims will actually advocate sharia once they are here, or, for that matter, whether their children will advocate sharia once they are grown, isn't it the case that by the logic of this law all Muslims should be kept from immigrating into the United States?"
If Islam commands sharia and jihad, as experts like Robert Spencer keep telling us, then it's a no brainer - Islam and the West are incompatible and must be separated.
I don't even think it's necessary to speculate what percentage hold extremist sympathies. In the long term, the greater predictor of Muslim behaviour is always the ideology of Islam - which seeks our subjugation by whatever means necessary including violence.
