#1 "the letter warned the Berlusconi from assassination if their journal did not stop its policy against Islam"

That makes perfect sense, I-slam being the Religion of ~~Pieces~~ Peace™ and all....

#2 ...and free speech advocates and human right groups immediately jump to the defense of the media...oh, wait, that won't happen. Not even in overt incidents like this.

#3 "Il Giornale" newspaper posted on its website today the threat note directed to the Berlusconi family, saying that they must stop their media campaign against Islam.

"Stop criticizing us, or we'll kill you!"

#5 Geez, this is Italy. Berlusconi makes a phone call, and every Muslim with any connection to this gets his legs broken. Probably a bunch more get their legs broken on general principles.

One of the advantages of being connected.

#11 Reminds me of one of my favorite Movie scenes, in "Rocket Man" the Natzis are in America trying to steal the plans, the FBI AND the Gangsters are both out with thompsons mowing down the Natzis, and the head goon, shoots past the head FBI man, who turns and looks surprised he's alive, the head goon says "I may be a crook, but I'm an american", they grin at each other and go their own ways.

#12 #9 3dc - you're kidding, right?

If those clowns try to kill someone in Hollyweird, they're going to lose 90% of their support from the leftists.

Hmmmmm. Maybe we should convince ~~whoever's pretending to be~~ Binny that Sean Penn supports women's rights (particularly in Afghanistan)....
