Update:
Muselmanic congress-critter Keith M. Ellison whines on CNN:
Translation: truth about Islam forces Koranimals to wage jihad, those opposing sharia are “extreme”- “Diversity is our strength.”

Far from being an attack on Islam, the opening lines of the film state clearly: “This is not a film about Islam. It is about the threat of radical Islam. Only a small percentage of the world’s 1.3 billion Muslims are radical.” Jasser, a devout Muslim of Syrian descent and a former US Navy lieutenant commander, is the founder of the American Islamic Forum for Democracy.
