It is because only Islam ordains its believers to condemn innocent human beings as `Kafirs` and kill them. Who is a believer, this only Allah knows. So it is free for all.

Christian evangelists can be as bad as the foul mouthed mullah ................. both need publicity through perverse fatwas and statements bad mouthing other communities...........we need to stay clear both of them and condemn both of them............let us condemn OBL in the same breath as these envagelists and get the message clear to both of them..........................this would not make it appear as if we are taking sides...............
